Class TextBitByBit

Creates and returns a text string (pass-through for text input). Example: text='Hello World' → 'Hello World'

Checks if text contains a search string. Example: text='hello world', search='world' → true

Checks if text starts with a search string. Example: text='hello world', search='hello' → true

Checks if text ends with a search string. Example: text='hello world', search='world' → true

Returns the index of the first occurrence of a search string. Example: text='hello world', search='world' → 6

Returns the index of the last occurrence of a search string. Example: text='hello world hello', search='hello' → 12

Returns the character at the specified index. Example: text='hello', index=1 → 'e'

Returns the length of text. Example: text='hello' → 5

Checks if text is empty or only whitespace. Example: text=' ' → true

Tests if text matches a regular expression pattern. Example: text='hello123', pattern='[0-9]+' → true

Matches text against a regular expression and returns matches. Example: text='hello123world456', pattern='[0-9]+', flags='g' → ['123', '456']

Replaces text matching a regular expression pattern. Example: text='hello123world456', pattern='[0-9]+', flags='g', replaceWith='X' → 'helloXworldX'

Searches text for a regular expression pattern and returns the index. Example: text='hello123', pattern='[0-9]+' → 5

Splits text using a regular expression pattern. Example: text='a1b2c3', pattern='[0-9]+' → ['a', 'b', 'c']

Splits text into multiple pieces using a separator string. Example: text='apple,banana,cherry', separator=',' → ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry']

Replaces all occurrences of a search string with a replacement string. Example: text='hello hello', search='hello', replaceWith='hi' → 'hi hi'

Joins multiple items into a single text string using a separator. Example: list=['apple', 'banana', 'cherry'], separator=', ' → 'apple, banana, cherry'

Transform any item to text

Transform each item in list to text

Formats text with placeholder values using {0}, {1}, etc. syntax. Example: text='Point: ({0}, {1})', values=[10, 5] → 'Point: (10, 5)'

Extracts a section of text between two indices. Example: text='hello world', start=0, end=5 → 'hello'

Extracts a section of text and returns a new string. Example: text='hello world', start=0, end=5 → 'hello'

Removes whitespace from both ends of text. Example: text=' hello ' → 'hello'

Removes whitespace from the start of text. Example: text=' hello ' → 'hello '

Removes whitespace from the end of text. Example: text=' hello ' → ' hello'

Pads text from the start to reach target length. Example: text='x', length=3, padString='a' → 'aax'

Pads text from the end to reach target length. Example: text='x', length=3, padString='a' → 'xaa'

Converts text to uppercase. Example: text='hello' → 'HELLO'

Converts text to lowercase. Example: text='HELLO' → 'hello'

Capitalizes the first character of text. Example: text='hello world' → 'Hello world'

Lowercases the first character of text. Example: text='Hello World' → 'hello World'

Repeats text a specified number of times. Example: text='ha', count=3 → 'hahaha'

Reverses the characters in text. Example: text='hello' → 'olleh'

Concatenates multiple text strings. Example: texts=['hello', ' ', 'world'] → 'hello world'

Converts a character to vector paths (polylines) with width and height data for rendering. Uses simplex stroke font to generate 2D line segments representing the character shape. Example: char='A', height=10 → {width:8, height:10, paths:[[points forming A shape]]}

Converts multi-line text to vector paths (polylines) with alignment and spacing controls. Supports line breaks, letter spacing, line spacing, horizontal alignment, and origin centering. Example: text='Hello\nWorld', height=10, align=center → [{line1 chars}, {line2 chars}]
