The function draw-string
draws the string string with the baseline starting at (x y). The transform, foreground, background, operation, stipple, pattern, mask, mask-transform, font, text-mode and compositing-mode from port's graphics-state are all used, unless overridden in args.
start and end specify which elements of string to draw. The default value of start is 0.
block, if true, causes each character to be drawn in a character cell filled with the background of port's graphics-state.
You can draw with the system highlight by setting graphics-state parameter foreground :color_highlighttext
and background :color_highlight
.
The graphics-state parameter operation is not supported for drawing text on Microsoft Windows.
