What is event in SFML?
sf::Event is a union, which means that only one of its members is valid at a time (remember your C++ lesson: all the members of a union share the same memory space). The valid member is the one that matches the event type, for example event. key for a KeyPressed event.
How do you check if a key is pressed SFML?
For that purpose, you can use the SFML event system. Poll for events, and if the received event is a KeyEvent, perform the desired actions. Real time input is useful if you want to check whether a key is currently being pressed or not.
What is a 65 keyboard?
In simple terms, a 65% keyboard is very similar to a 60% keyboard, but with arrow keys. For people who are used to using tenkeyless keyboards, and don’t need to use the number pad or function row then making the switch to a 65% will save some much-needed desk space.
How do you draw a line in SFML?
If you just want to draw a single line, use a static array of vertex (sf::Vertex[]) rather than a sf::VertexArray, which uses dynamic memory allocation. This is the best way if you want lines with no thickness. If you want thickness, you must draw a rotated rectangle instead (sf::RectangleShape).
What does SF window mean?
sf::Window Class Reference. Window module. Window that serves as a target for OpenGL rendering.
How do you find elapsed time in SFML?
Measuring time In SFML, you measure time with sf::Clock class. It defines two functions : Reset() , to restart the clock, and GetElapsedTime() , to get the time elapsed since the last call to Reset() . Time is defined in seconds, as all durations that you will find in SFML.
Is a 65% keyboard worth it?
Should I get one? If the only thing keeping you from 60% keyboards is the lack of arrow keys, you should go for the 65%. If you absolutely can’t live without arrow keys, the 65% is an ideal choice for you. If even that is not enough, you might want to move to even bigger keyboard layouts.
