deleteString method

bool deleteString(int offset, int length)

Delete UTF-8 text from a text object.

This function may cause the internal text representation to be rebuilt.

\param text the TTF_Text to modify. \param offset the offset, in bytes, from the beginning of the string if >= 0, the offset from the end of the string if < 0. Note that this does not do UTF-8 validation, so you should only delete at UTF-8 sequence boundaries. \param length the length of text to delete, in bytes, or -1 for the remainder of the string. \returns true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

\threadsafety This function should be called on the thread that created the text.

\since This function is available since SDL_ttf 3.0.0.
