public final class TextLayout extends Object implements Cloneable
TextLayout
is an immutable graphical representation of styled character data.It provides the following capabilities:
- implicit bidirectional analysis and reordering,
- cursor positioning and movement, including split cursors for mixed directional text,
- highlighting, including both logical and visual highlighting for mixed directional text,
- multiple baselines (roman, hanging, and centered),
- hit testing,
- justification,
- default font substitution,
- metric information such as ascent, descent, and advance, and
- rendering
A
TextLayout
object can be rendered using itsdraw
method.TextLayout
can be constructed either directly or through the use of aLineBreakMeasurer
. When constructed directly, the source text represents a single paragraph.LineBreakMeasurer
allows styled text to be broken into lines that fit within a particular width. See theLineBreakMeasurer
documentation for more information.TextLayout
construction logically proceeds as follows:- paragraph attributes are extracted and examined,
- text is analyzed for bidirectional reordering, and reordering information is computed if needed,
- text is segmented into style runs
- fonts are chosen for style runs, first by using a font if the attribute
TextAttribute.FONT
is present, otherwise by computing a default font using the attributes that have been defined - if text is on multiple baselines, the runs or subruns are further broken into subruns sharing a common baseline,
- glyphvectors are generated for each run using the chosen font,
- final bidirectional reordering is performed on the glyphvectors
All graphical information returned from a
TextLayout
object's methods is relative to the origin of theTextLayout
, which is the intersection of theTextLayout
object's baseline with its left edge. Also, coordinates passed into aTextLayout
object's methods are assumed to be relative to theTextLayout
object's origin. Clients usually need to translate between aTextLayout
object's coordinate system and the coordinate system in another object (such as aGraphics
object).TextLayout
objects are constructed from styled text, but they do not retain a reference to their source text. Thus, changes in the text previously used to generate aTextLayout
do not affect theTextLayout
.Three methods on a
TextLayout
object (getNextRightHit
,getNextLeftHit
, andhitTestChar
) return instances ofTextHitInfo
. The offsets contained in theseTextHitInfo
objects are relative to the start of theTextLayout
, not to the text used to create theTextLayout
. Similarly,TextLayout
methods that acceptTextHitInfo
instances as parameters expect theTextHitInfo
object's offsets to be relative to theTextLayout
, not to any underlying text storage model.Examples:
Constructing and drawing a
TextLayout
and its bounding rectangle:Graphics2D g = ...; Point2D loc = ...; Font font = Font.getFont("Helvetica-bold-italic"); FontRenderContext frc = g.getFontRenderContext(); TextLayout layout = new TextLayout("This is a string", font, frc); layout.draw(g, (float)loc.getX(), (float)loc.getY()); Rectangle2D bounds = layout.getBounds(); bounds.setRect(bounds.getX()+loc.getX(), bounds.getY()+loc.getY(), bounds.getWidth(), bounds.getHeight()); g.draw(bounds);
Hit-testing a
TextLayout
(determining which character is at a particular graphical location):Point2D click = ...; TextHitInfo hit = layout.hitTestChar( (float) (click.getX() - loc.getX()), (float) (click.getY() - loc.getY()));
Responding to a right-arrow key press:
int insertionIndex = ...; TextHitInfo next = layout.getNextRightHit(insertionIndex); if (next != null) { // translate graphics to origin of layout on screen g.translate(loc.getX(), loc.getY()); Shape[] carets = layout.getCaretShapes(next.getInsertionIndex()); g.draw(carets[0]); if (carets[1] != null) { g.draw(carets[1]); } }
Drawing a selection range corresponding to a substring in the source text. The selected area may not be visually contiguous:
// selStart, selLimit should be relative to the layout, // not to the source text int selStart = ..., selLimit = ...; Color selectionColor = ...; Shape selection = layout.getLogicalHighlightShape(selStart, selLimit); // selection may consist of disjoint areas // graphics is assumed to be translated to origin of layout g.setColor(selectionColor); g.fill(selection);
Drawing a visually contiguous selection range. The selection range may correspond to more than one substring in the source text. The ranges of the corresponding source text substrings can be obtained with
getLogicalRangesForVisualSelection()
:TextHitInfo selStart = ..., selLimit = ...; Shape selection = layout.getVisualHighlightShape(selStart, selLimit); g.setColor(selectionColor); g.fill(selection); int[] ranges = getLogicalRangesForVisualSelection(selStart, selLimit); // ranges[0], ranges[1] is the first selection range, // ranges[2], ranges[3] is the second selection range, etc.
Note: Font rotations can cause text baselines to be rotated, and multiple runs with different rotations can cause the baseline to bend or zig-zag. In order to account for this (rare) possibility, some APIs are specified to return metrics and take parameters 'in baseline-relative coordinates' (e.g. ascent, advance), and others are in 'in standard coordinates' (e.g. getBounds). Values in baseline-relative coordinates map the 'x' coordinate to the distance along the baseline, (positive x is forward along the baseline), and the 'y' coordinate to a distance along the perpendicular to the baseline at 'x' (positive y is 90 degrees clockwise from the baseline vector). Values in standard coordinates are measured along the x and y axes, with 0,0 at the origin of the TextLayout. Documentation for each relevant API indicates what values are in what coordinate system. In general, measurement-related APIs are in baseline-relative coordinates, while display-related APIs are in standard coordinates.

DEFAULT_CARET_POLICY
public static final TextLayout.CaretPolicy DEFAULT_CARET_POLICY
ThisCaretPolicy
is used when a policy is not specified by the client. With this policy, a hit on a character whose direction is the same as the line direction is stronger than a hit on a counterdirectional character. If the characters' directions are the same, a hit on the leading edge of a character is stronger than a hit on the trailing edge of a character.

TextLayout
has already been justified, an exception is thrown. If thisTextLayout
object's justification ratio is zero, aTextLayout
identical to thisTextLayout
is returned.- Parameters:
justificationWidth
- the width to use when justifying the line. For best results, it should not be too different from the current advance of the line.- Returns:
-
a
TextLayout
justified to the specified width. - Throws:
Error
- if this layout has already been justified, an Error is thrown.
handleJustify
protected void handleJustify(float justificationWidth)
Justify this layout. Overridden by subclassers to control justification (if there were subclassers, that is...) The layout will only justify if the paragraph attributes (from the source text, possibly defaulted by the layout attributes) indicate a non-zero justification ratio. The text will be justified to the indicated width. The current implementation also adjusts hanging punctuation and trailing whitespace to overhang the justification width. Once justified, the layout may not be rejustified.Some code may rely on immutability of layouts. Subclassers should not call this directly, but instead should call getJustifiedLayout, which will call this method on a clone of this layout, preserving the original.
- Parameters:
justificationWidth
- the width to use when justifying the line. For best results, it should not be too different from the current advance of the line.- See Also:
getJustifiedLayout(float)

Font
, which are roman, centered and hanging. The values are relative to thisTextLayout
object's baseline, so thatgetBaselineOffsets[getBaseline()] == 0
. Offsets are added to the position of theTextLayout

-
the offsets array containing the baselines used for this
TextLayout
. - See Also:

Returns the ascent of thisTextLayout
. The ascent is the distance from the top (right) of theTextLayout
to the baseline. It is always either positive or zero. The ascent is sufficient to accommodate superscripted text and is the maximum of the sum of the ascent, offset, and baseline of each glyph. The ascent is the maximum ascent from the baseline of all the text in the TextLayout. It is in baseline-relative coordinates.- Returns:
-
the ascent of this
TextLayout

-
the descent of this
TextLayout
.
getLeading
public float getLeading()
Returns the leading of theTextLayout
. The leading is the suggested interline spacing for thisTextLayout
. This is in baseline-relative coordinates.The leading is computed from the leading, descent, and baseline of all glyphvectors in the
TextLayout
. The algorithm is roughly as follows:maxD = 0; maxDL = 0; for (GlyphVector g in all glyphvectors) { maxD = max(maxD, g.getDescent() + offsets[g.getBaseline()]); maxDL = max(maxDL, g.getDescent() + g.getLeading() + offsets[g.getBaseline()]); } return maxDL - maxD;
- Returns:
-
the leading of this
TextLayout
.
getBounds
public Rectangle2D getBounds()

isLeftToRight
public boolean isLeftToRight()
Returnstrue
if thisTextLayout
has a left-to-right base direction orfalse

has a base direction of either left-to-right (LTR) or right-to-left (RTL). The base direction is independent of the actual direction of text on the line, which may be either LTR, RTL, or mixed. Left-to-right layouts by default should position flush left. If the layout is on a tabbed line, the tabs run left to right, so that logically successive layouts position left to right. The opposite is true for RTL layouts. By default they should position flush left, and tabs run right-to-left.- Returns:
true
if the base direction of thisTextLayout
is left-to-right;false
otherwise.

. For example, consider the text 'ABCdef' where capital letters indicate right-to-left text, rendered on a right-to-left line, with a visual selection from 0L (the leading edge of 'A') to 3T (the trailing edge of 'd'). The text appears as follows, with bold underlined areas representing the selection:defCBA

.If the selection range includes the first logical character, the selection is extended to the portion of
bounds
before the start of thisTextLayout
. If the range includes the last logical character, the selection is extended to the portion ofbounds
after the end of thisTextLayout
. The height (width on vertical lines) of the selection is always extended tobounds
.The selection can be discontiguous on lines with mixed-direction text. Only those characters in the logical range between start and limit appear selected. For example, consider the text 'ABCdef' where capital letters indicate right-to-left text, rendered on a right-to-left line, with a logical selection from 0 to 4 ('ABCd'). The text appears as follows, with bold standing in for the selection, and underlining for the extension:
defCBA
The selection is discontiguous because the selected characters are visually discontiguous. Also note that since the range includes the first logical character (A), the selection is extended to the portion of thebounds
before the start of the layout, which in this case (a right-to-left line) is the right portion of thebounds
.- Parameters:
firstEndpoint
- an endpoint in the range of characters to selectsecondEndpoint
- the other endpoint of the range of characters to select. Can be less thanfirstEndpoint
. The range includes the character at min(firstEndpoint, secondEndpoint), but excludes max(firstEndpoint, secondEndpoint).bounds
- the bounding rectangle to which to extend the selection. This is in baseline-relative coordinates.- Returns:
- an area enclosing the selection. This is in standard coordinates.

getVisualHighlightShape(TextHitInfo, TextHitInfo, Rectangle2D)
getLogicalHighlightShape
public Shape getLogicalHighlightShape(int firstEndpoint, int secondEndpoint)
Returns aShape
enclosing the logical selection in the specified range, extended to the natural bounds of thisTextLayout
. This method is a convenience overload ofgetLogicalHighlightShape
that uses the natural bounds of thisTextLayout
.- Parameters:
firstEndpoint
- an endpoint in the range of characters to selectsecondEndpoint
- the other endpoint of the range of characters to select. Can be less thanfirstEndpoint
. The range includes the character at min(firstEndpoint, secondEndpoint), but excludes max(firstEndpoint, secondEndpoint).- Returns:
-
a
Shape
enclosing the selection. This is in standard coordinates.
getBlackBoxBounds
public Shape getBlackBoxBounds(int firstEndpoint, int secondEndpoint)
Returns the black box bounds of the characters in the specified range. The black box bounds is an area consisting of the union of the bounding boxes of all the glyphs corresponding to the characters between start and limit. This area can be disjoint.- Parameters:
firstEndpoint
- one end of the character rangesecondEndpoint
- the other end of the character range. Can be less thanfirstEndpoint
.- Returns:
-
a
Shape
enclosing the black box bounds. This is in standard coordinates.
hitTestChar
public TextHitInfo hitTestChar(float x, float y, Rectangle2D bounds)
Returns aTextHitInfo
corresponding to the specified point. Coordinates outside the bounds of theTextLayout
map to hits on the leading edge of the first logical character, or the trailing edge of the last logical character, as appropriate, regardless of the position of that character in the line. Only the direction along the baseline is used to make this evaluation.- Parameters:
x
- the x offset from the origin of thisTextLayout
. This is in standard coordinates.y
- the y offset from the origin of thisTextLayout
. This is in standard coordinates.bounds
- the bounds of theTextLayout
. This is in baseline-relative coordinates.- Returns:
- a hit describing the character and edge (leading or trailing) under the specified point.
hitTestChar
public TextHitInfo hitTestChar(float x, float y)
Returns aTextHitInfo
corresponding to the specified point. This method is a convenience overload ofhitTestChar
that uses the natural bounds of thisTextLayout
.- Parameters:
x
- the x offset from the origin of thisTextLayout
. This is in standard coordinates.y
- the y offset from the origin of thisTextLayout
. This is in standard coordinates.- Returns:
- a hit describing the character and edge (leading or trailing) under the specified point.
equals
public boolean equals(TextLayout rhs)
Returnstrue
if the two layouts are equal. Obeys the general contract ofequals(Object)
.- Parameters:
rhs
- theTextLayout
to compare to thisTextLayout
- Returns:
true
if the specifiedTextLayout
equals thisTextLayout
.
toString
public String toString()
Returns debugging information for thisTextLayout
.
draw
public void draw(Graphics2D g2, float x, float y)
Renders thisTextLayout
at the specified location in the specifiedGraphics2D
context. The origin of the layout is placed at x, y. Rendering may touch any point withingetBounds()
of this position. This leaves theg2
unchanged. Text is rendered along the baseline path.- Parameters:
g2
- theGraphics2D
context into which to render the layoutx
- the X coordinate of the origin of thisTextLayout
y
- the Y coordinate of the origin of thisTextLayout
- See Also:
getBounds()
getOutline
public Shape getOutline(AffineTransform tx)
Returns aShape
representing the outline of thisTextLayout
.- Parameters:
tx
- an optionalAffineTransform
to apply to the outline of thisTextLayout
.- Returns:
-
a
Shape
that is the outline of thisTextLayout
. This is in standard coordinates.
getLayoutPath
public LayoutPath getLayoutPath()
Return the LayoutPath, or null if the layout path is the default path (x maps to advance, y maps to offset).- Returns:
- the layout path
- Since:
- 1.6
hitToPoint
public void hitToPoint(TextHitInfo hit, Point2D point)
Convert a hit to a point in standard coordinates. The point is on the baseline of the character at the leading or trailing edge of the character, as appropriate. If the path is broken at the side of the character represented by the hit, the point will be adjacent to the character.- Parameters:
hit
- the hit to check. This must be a valid hit on the TextLayout.point
- the returned point. The point is in standard coordinates.- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
- if the hit is not valid for the TextLayout.NullPointerException
- if hit or point is null.- Since:
- 1.6
