From 9c9be25bdb0b2ec48e3078fe5e119b3d0f56631c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Danilo M." Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 19:39:45 +0200 Subject: fix: step text cursors by advance, not ink width The date rendered as "16 /SEP /2026", each slash jammed against the next glyph. measure() returns the ink width, which ignores leading and trailing spaces because a space carries no ink, and clock.lua was using it to advance a cursor. Measured: " / " covers 6px of ink but advances 14px, so every separator lost 8px. Splits the two uses that were conflated in one function. measure() is for centring and right-aligning, where ink width is what you want; advance() returns x_advance and is for laying out runs of text left to right. The clock's date now uses advance() and reads "16 / SEP / 2026" with even gaps, verified by screenshot. Worth the split rather than changing measure() in place: text_right is a correct caller of the ink width, so one function cannot serve both and silently returning the advance would have broken alignment instead.
