Hello,
I´m having a problem with this solution to measure text width in B4J.
original post link: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/measure-text.45750/#content
When I use a very large text with a big text size, it gives an error message at the "lbl.snapshot" line.
With small texts or small fonts it works ok.
I need to use large texts (about 200 chars each message), with fontsize at least 60 and label that have the screen width (1920 pixels).
I modified the class ScrollingLabel to scroll the messages as a news ticker. But with font size less than 60 the text is only visible near the Tv.
these are the messages at the log:
Waiting for debugger to connect...
Program started.

B4X:

lbl.Initialize("")
lbl.Text = Text
lbl.Font = Font
mBase.AddView(lbl, 0, 0, -1, -1) 'mBase is a B4XView panel.
lbl.Snapshot
lbl.RemoveNodeFromParent
Return lbl.Width
