Method Detail
drawTabbedText
public static final int drawTabbedText(Segment s, int x, int y, Graphics g, TabExpander e, int startOffset)
Draws the given text, expanding any tabs that are contained using the given tab expansion technique. This particular implementation renders in a 1.1 style coordinate system where ints are used and 72dpi is assumed.- Parameters:
-
s
- the source of the text -
x
- the X origin >= 0 -
y
- the Y origin >= 0 -
g
- the graphics context -
e
- how to expand the tabs. If this value is null, tabs will be expanded as a space character. -
startOffset
- starting offset of the text in the document >= 0 - Returns:
- the X location at the end of the rendered text
getTabbedTextWidth
public static final int getTabbedTextWidth(Segment s, FontMetrics metrics, int x, TabExpander e, int startOffset)
Determines the width of the given segment of text taking tabs into consideration. This is implemented in a 1.1 style coordinate system where ints are used and 72dpi is assumed.- Parameters:
-
s
- the source of the text -
metrics
- the font metrics to use for the calculation -
x
- the X origin >= 0 -
e
- how to expand the tabs. If this value is null, tabs will be expanded as a space character. -
startOffset
- starting offset of the text in the document >= 0 - Returns:
- the width of the text
getTabbedTextOffset
public static final int getTabbedTextOffset(Segment s, FontMetrics metrics, int x0, int x, TabExpander e, int startOffset)
Determines the relative offset into the given text that best represents the given span in the view coordinate system. This is implemented in a 1.1 style coordinate system where ints are used and 72dpi is assumed.- Parameters:
-
s
- the source of the text -
metrics
- the font metrics to use for the calculation -
x0
- the starting view location representing the start of the given text >= 0. -
x
- the target view location to translate to an offset into the text >= 0. -
e
- how to expand the tabs. If this value is null, tabs will be expanded as a space character. -
startOffset
- starting offset of the text in the document >= 0 - Returns:
- the offset into the text >= 0
getTabbedTextOffset
public static final int getTabbedTextOffset(Segment s, FontMetrics metrics, int x0, int x, TabExpander e, int startOffset, boolean round)
getBreakLocation
public static final int getBreakLocation(Segment s, FontMetrics metrics, int x0, int x, TabExpander e, int startOffset)
Determine where to break the given text to fit within the given span. This tries to find a word boundary.- Parameters:
-
s
- the source of the text -
metrics
- the font metrics to use for the calculation -
x0
- the starting view location representing the start of the given text. -
x
- the target view location to translate to an offset into the text. -
e
- how to expand the tabs. If this value is null, tabs will be expanded as a space character. -
startOffset
- starting offset in the document of the text - Returns:
- the offset into the given text
getRowStart
public static final int getRowStart(JTextComponent c, int offs) throws BadLocationException
Determines the starting row model position of the row that contains the specified model position. The component given must have a size to compute the result. If the component doesn't have a size a value of -1 will be returned.- Parameters:
