Parameters

font
Type: Emgu.CV.Structure..::.MCvFont %
Pointer to the font structure initialized by the function
fontFace
Type: Emgu.CV.CvEnum..::.FONT
Font name identifier. Only a subset of Hershey fonts are supported now
hscale
Type: System..::.Double
Horizontal scale. If equal to 1.0f, the characters have the original width depending on the font type. If equal to 0.5f, the characters are of half the original width
vscale
Type: System..::.Double
Vertical scale. If equal to 1.0f, the characters have the original height depending on the font type. If equal to 0.5f, the characters are of half the original height
shear
Type: System..::.Double
Approximate tangent of the character slope relative to the vertical line. Zero value means a non-italic font, 1.0f means 45 slope, etc. thickness Thickness of lines composing letters outlines. The function cvLine is used for drawing letters
thickness
Type: System..::.Int32
Thickness of the text strokes
lineType
Type: Emgu.CV.CvEnum..::.LINE_TYPE
Type of the strokes
