Examples

public OnGameModeInit()

TextDrawTextSize(gMyTextdraw, 2.0, 3.6);

Notes
tip
The x and y have different meanings with different TextDrawAlignment values: 1 (left): they are the right-most corner of the box, absolute coordinates. 2 (center): they need to inverted (switch the two) and the x value is the overall width of the box. 3 (right): the x and y are the coordinates of the left-most corner of the box
Using font type 4 (sprite) and 5 (model preview) converts X and Y of this function from corner coordinates to WIDTH and HEIGHT (offsets). The TextDraw box starts 10.0 units up and 5.0 to the left as the origin (TextDrawCreate coordinate). This function defines the clickable area for use with TextDrawSetSelectable, whether a box is shown or not.
tip
If you want to change the text size of a textdraw that is already shown, you don't have to recreate it. Simply use TextDrawShowForPlayer/TextDrawShowForAll after modifying the textdraw and the change will be visible.
