TextServerDummy

Description

A dummy TextServer interface that doesn't do anything. Useful for freeing up memory when rendering text is not needed, as text servers are resource-intensive. It can also be used for performance comparisons in complex GUIs to check the impact of text rendering. A dummy text server is always available at the start of a project. Here's how to access it:

		var dummy_text_server = TextServerManager.find_interface("Dummy")
		if dummy_text_server != null:
			TextServerManager.set_primary_interface(dummy_text_server)
			# If the other text servers are unneeded, they can be removed:
			for i in TextServerManager.get_interface_count():
				var text_server = TextServerManager.get_interface(i)
				if text_server != dummy_text_server:
					TextServerManager.remove_interface(text_server)
		

The command line argument --text-driver Dummy (case-sensitive) can be used to force the "Dummy" TextServer on any project.
