Escape sequences in love.graphics.draw?

[Zetty]

Is it just me or does the \t for tab not work in love.graphics.draw?

Instead, it looks like

Code: Select all

Text[]Text

Where [] is a solid rectangular box which reminds me of missing fonts/font support (unicode?) but should be a tab instead. Am I doing something wrong?

They just don't work. Newline characters work only in the regular draw statement, so if that's function-dependant, try using \t with all text-drawing functions, maybe one of them supports it.

Only the newline (\n) character is supported. The rest of them gets treated like "normal" characters, as far as I know.
