Wrapping long text on an Android Canvas

Question

I have a custom control that is doing a lot of 2D drawing straight to the canvas.

Some of this drawing is text, so I am using the Canvas.drawText() meth

Answer 1

You can use Paint.getTextBounds() to measure the size of the entire string or Paint.getTextWidths() to get the width of each character. Then split the string appropriately before drawing it.
