Shape, measure, and represent text and glyph resources.

```yh
external CreateGraphicsTextMetricsV2(int ascentQ26_6, int descentQ26_6, int lineGapQ26_6, int capHeightQ26_6, int xHeightQ26_6, int underlinePositionQ26_6, int underlineThicknessQ26_6, int advanceXQ26_6, int advanceYQ26_6) returns graphicsTextMetricsV2
```


## Use CreateGraphicsTextMetricsV2

A complete small caller. Values are illustrative; check the returned result and package requirements before connecting live resources.

Verification: type checked

```yh
using graphics.text

// Shape, measure, and represent text and glyph resources.
int ascentQ26_6 = 1
int descentQ26_6 = 1
int lineGapQ26_6 = 1
int capHeightQ26_6 = 1
int xHeightQ26_6 = 1
int underlinePositionQ26_6 = 1
int underlineThicknessQ26_6 = 1
int advanceXQ26_6 = 1
int advanceYQ26_6 = 1
graphicsTextMetricsV2 result = CreateGraphicsTextMetricsV2(ascentQ26_6, descentQ26_6, lineGapQ26_6, capHeightQ26_6, xHeightQ26_6, underlinePositionQ26_6, underlineThicknessQ26_6, advanceXQ26_6, advanceYQ26_6)
Console.Log("Inspect result in your debugger")

```

Save this beside start.yh as project.mech:

```toml
manifestVersion = "2"
package = "api.example.graphics_text__creategraphicstextmetricsv2"
version = "0.1.0"
languageEdition = "yeho-core-2026.1"

[app]
kind = "headless"

[[dependencies]]
package = "graphics.text"
version = "0.1.0"
path = "../../../yeho/packages/graphics/text"

```

Extract the example archive beside the yeho and dolphin checkouts. This example requires those source dependencies and a current developer compiler.

```sh
./yeho/build/dolphin-metal/yehoc ./api-examples/graphics.text--CreateGraphicsTextMetricsV2/usage --backend cpu-oracle -o /tmp/yeho-example
/tmp/yeho-example
```


Package presence and a declaration do not establish support on every host. Host services need their platform and lifecycle setup.
