Thread: ID3DXFont not drawing

I have used ID3DXFont before but it was before I used this new code base and now I can't get it to work. All the font creation and drawing calls are working and I just can't see what's wrong.

WinMain

Code:

/* Globals */
const UINT g_iWidth = 1024;
const UINT g_iHeight = 768;
HWND g_hWnd;

const char szClassName[ ] = "DirectX App";

IDirect3D9 *g_pD3D;
IDirect3DDevice9 *g_pDevice;
d3d App;
ID3DXFont *font = 0;
char *font_name = "Times New Roman";


int WINAPI WinMain (HINSTANCE hThisInstance,HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,LPSTR lpszArgument,int nFunsterStil){
  MSG msg;
  ::ZeroMemory(&msg,sizeof(MSG));

  if(!InitWindow(g_iWidth,g_iHeight,hThisInstance,nFunsterStil)){
    ::MessageBox(0, "InitWindow() - FAILED", 0, 0);
  }

  if(!App.InitD3D(g_hWnd, g_iWidth, g_iHeight, true, D3DDEVTYPE_HAL, &g_pD3D, &g_pDevice)){
    ::MessageBox(0, "InitD3D() - FAILED", 0, 0);
    return 0;
  }

  Setup();

  App.EnterMsgLoop(Display,msg);

  Cleanup();
  return msg.wParam;
}

Setup

Code:

bool Setup(){
  D3DXCreateFont(g_pDevice,
                 22,
                 0,
                 FW_NORMAL,
                 1,
                 false,
                 DEFAULT_CHARSET,
                 OUT_DEFAULT_PRECIS,
                 ANTIALIASED_QUALITY,
                 DEFAULT_PITCH|FF_DONTCARE,
                 "Arial",
                 &font);

  return true;
}

Display

Code:

bool Display(float timeDelta){
  RECT rect;
  SetRect(&rect,0,0,640,480);

  g_pDevice->Clear(0,0,D3DCLEAR_TARGET | D3DCLEAR_ZBUFFER,0x77777777,1.0f,0);
  g_pDevice->BeginScene();
    font->DrawText(NULL,"Hello World!",-1,&rect,DT_LEFT|DT_NOCLIP,0x00000000);
  g_pDevice->EndScene();

  g_pDevice->Present(0,0,0,0);
  return true;
}

You probably don't ned to see this one but I'll show it just incase

d3d::InitD3D

Code:

bool d3d::InitD3D(HWND hWnd, int width, int height, bool windowed,
                  D3DDEVTYPE deviceType, IDirect3D9 **D3D, IDirect3DDevice9 **device){


  *D3D = Direct3DCreate9( D3D_SDK_VERSION );
  if(!(*D3D)){
    return false;
  }
  D3DPRESENT_PARAMETERS d3dpp;
  ZeroMemory(&d3dpp,sizeof(d3dpp));

  d3dpp.BackBufferWidth = width;
  d3dpp.BackBufferHeight = height;
  d3dpp.BackBufferFormat = D3DFMT_A8R8G8B8;
  d3dpp.BackBufferCount = 1;
  d3dpp.MultiSampleType = D3DMULTISAMPLE_NONE;
  d3dpp.MultiSampleQuality = 0;
  d3dpp.SwapEffect = D3DSWAPEFFECT_DISCARD;
  d3dpp.hDeviceWindow = hWnd;
  d3dpp.Windowed = windowed; 
  d3dpp.EnableAutoDepthStencil = true;
  d3dpp.AutoDepthStencilFormat = D3DFMT_D24S8;
  d3dpp.Flags = 0;
  d3dpp.FullScreen_RefreshRateInHz = D3DPRESENT_RATE_DEFAULT;
  d3dpp.PresentationInterval = D3DPRESENT_INTERVAL_IMMEDIATE;

  if(FAILED((*D3D)->CreateDevice(D3DADAPTER_DEFAULT, deviceType, hWnd,
                              D3DCREATE_HARDWARE_VERTEXPROCESSING,&d3dpp, device))){
    (*D3D)->Release();
    D3D = NULL;
    return false;
  }


  return true;
}
