Font

TypeDefault
Font

The Font of the text being measured. Corresponds to the TextLabel.FontFace property on text objects.

Not to be confused with Font. This is an object that you can create using Font.new().

RichText

TypeDefault
boolfalse

Determines whether the text being measured is interpreted using rich text markup. Corresponds to the TextLabel.RichText property on text objects.

By default, the value is false, meaning the GetTextBoundsParams.Text string is measured verbatim. When set to true, rich text formatting tags in the string are parsed rather than measured as literal characters, so the returned bounds reflect the styled text.
