Hi, I'm running CE 7.1, and I needed a way to update the font size of D3Dhook_TextContainer objects, so my initial idea was to update the font map every frame. Unfortunately, the only way to change the text size of font map objects is to adjust a font object and use D3DHook_FontMap.changeFont, which appears to have a nasty memory leak. I could just compare the window size to a stored variable and update it then, but I was wondering if there was an undocumented alternate way of changing the font size. Thanks.

The below code will consume about 400MB extra process memory.

You can have more than 1 fontmap

Create 4 to 5 fontmaps and then assign them to the textcontainer as needed. No need to create a new fontmap each time

And if that doesn't work then create 4 to 5 textcontainers each with their unique fontmap. Then when you wish to change the size hide the old one and make the others invisible

I tried to D3DHook_FontMap.destroy() the previous font map and create a new font map, but D3DHOOK.createFontmap() also has memory leaks. D3Dhook_TextContainer.FontMap() does not have any leaks, so creating several text containers with different font sizes could work depending on how many different text profiles are needed. I will go with my solution of detecting a window size change and updating it then. Thanks.
