Masking a Window

[Dero]

Hey there.

Ive got a Question regarding the WINDOW_MANAGER.

Is it possible to not show things like texts/textures outside the regular borders?

Example:

MyFrame = WINDOW_MANAGER:CreateTopLevelWindow("Frame")
MyFrame:SetDrawLayer(1)
MyFrame:SetAnchor(TOPRIGHT,GuiRoot,TOPRIGHT,0,0)
MyFrame:SetDimensions(100,100)
MyFrame:SetShapeType(1)
MyFrameBG = WINDOW_MANAGER:CreateControlFromVirtual("MyFrameBG",Frame,"ZO_DefaultBackdrop")

MyText = WINDOW_MANAGER:CreateControl("MyText",Frame,CT_LABEL)
MyText:SetText("This text should only display 'This te'")
MyText:SetFont("ZoFontTooltipTitle")
MyText:SetAnchor(TOPLEFT,Frame,TOPLEFT,50,50)

This would be really helpful to create some kind of masks for things

Did you try to set dimensions?

MyText:SetDimensions(width, height)
--or just width:
MyText:SetWidth(width)

or dimension constraints:

MyText:SetDimensionConstraints(minWidth, minHeight, maxWidth, maxHeight)

You need to use a scroll frame for this. This is their purpose.

That doesnt helps me with textures and also not with texts if i've a round Frame.
