Can someone tell what's wrong with this, please:
bbox!0 = 0
bbox!4 = 0
bbox!8 = 0
bbox!12 = 0
bbox!16 = -1
SYS "Font_ScanString", 0, text$, &40020, 3000*400, 2500*400, bbox
=bbox!28 / 400
Or this:
SYS "Font_ScanString", 0, text$, 0, 2500*400, 2000*400 TO ,,,width%
=width% / 400
The icon widths are correct at first, with either method, but then break
down and are shortened, seemingly randomly, when the icons are moved.

You are using the 'current font handle' (R1=0) so if something has changed font

(like mobing an icon) the results will differ.
