Function: preloadTextFont()

function preloadTextFont(options): Promise<void>;

Experimental

Load a font and pre-generate glyph SDFs (e.g. digits for tick labels) so the first frame with text does not stall. Resolves the family through the font registry, else the default font (no family: the default font's face for the weight and style). Loads the text engine and the default font face first if needed.

Parameters

options	{ characters?: string | string[]; family?: string; style?: TextFontStyle; weight?: TextFontWeight; }
options.characters?	string | string[]
options.family?	string

options.weight?	TextFontWeight

Returns

Promise<void>
