Adds custom text to the object within the draw function. The text is displayed at the specified coordinates relative to the object.

Parameters

  1. number x-coordinate
  2. number y-coordinate
  3. string The text to be displayed

Usage

local basalt = require("basalt")

local mainFrame = basalt.createFrame()

local function drawCustomText(self)
  self:addText(2, 3, "Custom Text")
end

mainFrame:addDraw("customText", drawCustomText)

In this example, a custom draw function named drawCustomText is created. Within the function, addText is used to add the text "Custom Text" at the position (2, 3) relative to the object. The addDraw function is then used to add the custom draw function to the main frame.
