Android Question Canvas.MeasureStringWidth

[ykucuk]

Hi

Canvas.MeasureStringWidth doesn't work when text is long or include CRLF

Any help?

 

[Erel]

What are you using it for?

 

[ykucuk]

I am trying to create chat bubble. I need to change the width of bubble according to text length.

Assuming that Label.SingleLine is False then the text will be wrapped if it is too long. Canvas.MeasureStringWidth will return the string length without the text being wrapped.

StringUtils.MeasureMultilineTextHeight will return the correct height with the wrapped text.

StringUtils.MeasureMultilineTextHeight is work fine.

What I want to to do: message "ok" and "how are you" should be the different width. I need calc this width.

Canvas.MeasureStringWidth should work with these strings.
