Class LineBreakMeasurer

java.lang.Object
  extended byjava.awt.font.LineBreakMeasurer

public final class LineBreakMeasurer
extends Object

The LineBreakMeasurer class allows styled text to be broken into lines (or segments) that fit within a particular visual advance. This is useful for clients who wish to display a paragraph of text that fits within a specific width, called the wrapping width.

LineBreakMeasurer is constructed with an iterator over styled text. The iterator's range should be a single paragraph in the text. LineBreakMeasurer maintains a position in the text for the start of the next text segment. Initially, this position is the start of text. Paragraphs are assigned an overall direction (either left-to-right or right-to-left) according to the bidirectional formatting rules. All segments obtained from a paragraph have the same direction as the paragraph.

Segments of text are obtained by calling the method nextLayout, which returns a TextLayout representing the text that fits within the wrapping width. The nextLayout method moves the current position to the end of the layout returned from nextLayout.

LineBreakMeasurer implements the most commonly used line-breaking policy: Every word that fits within the wrapping width is placed on the line. If the first word does not fit, then all of the characters that fit within the wrapping width are placed on the line. At least one character is placed on each line.

The TextLayout instances returned by LineBreakMeasurer treat tabs like 0-width spaces. Clients who wish to obtain tab-delimited segments for positioning should use the overload of nextLayout which takes a limiting offset in the text. The limiting offset should be the first character after the tab. The TextLayout objects returned from this method end at the limit provided (or before, if the text between the current position and the limit won't fit entirely within the wrapping width).

Clients who are laying out tab-delimited text need a slightly different line-breaking policy after the first segment has been placed on a line. Instead of fitting partial words in the remaining space, they should place words which don't fit in the remaining space entirely on the next line. This change of policy can be requested in the overload of nextLayout which takes a boolean parameter. If this parameter is true, nextLayout returns null if the first word won't fit in the given space. See the tab sample below.

In general, if the text used to construct the LineBreakMeasurer changes, a new LineBreakMeasurer must be constructed to reflect the change. (The old LineBreakMeasurer continues to function properly, but it won't be aware of the text change.) Nevertheless, if the text change is the insertion or deletion of a single character, an existing LineBreakMeasurer can be 'updated' by calling insertChar or deleteChar. Updating an existing LineBreakMeasurer is much faster than creating a new one. Clients who modify text based on user typing should take advantage of these methods.

Examples:

Rendering a paragraph in a component

 public void paint(Graphics graphics) {

     Point2D pen = new Point2D(10, 20);
     Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D)graphics;
     FontRenderContext frc = g2d.getFontRenderContext();

     // let styledText be an AttributedCharacterIterator containing at least
     // one character

     LineBreakMeasurer measurer = new LineBreakMeasurer(styledText, frc);
     float wrappingWidth = getSize().width - 15;

     while (measurer.getPosition() < fStyledText.length()) {

         TextLayout layout = measurer.nextLayout(wrappingWidth);

         pen.y += (layout.getAscent());
         float dx = layout.isLeftToRight() ?
             0 : (wrappingWidth - layout.getAdvance());

         layout.draw(graphics, pen.x + dx, pen.y);
         pen.y += layout.getDescent() + layout.getLeading();
     }
 }
 

Rendering text with tabs. For simplicity, the overall text direction is assumed to be left-to-right

 public void paint(Graphics graphics) {

     float leftMargin = 10, rightMargin = 310;
     float[] tabStops = { 100, 250 };

     // assume styledText is an AttributedCharacterIterator, and the number
     // of tabs in styledText is tabCount

     int[] tabLocations = new int[tabCount+1];

     int i = 0;
     for (char c = styledText.first(); c != styledText.DONE; c = styledText.next()) {
         if (c == '\t') {
             tabLocations[i++] = styledText.getIndex();
         }
     }
     tabLocations[tabCount] = styledText.getEndIndex() - 1;

     // Now tabLocations has an entry for every tab's offset in
     // the text.  For convenience, the last entry is tabLocations
     // is the offset of the last character in the text.

     LineBreakMeasurer measurer = new LineBreakMeasurer(styledText);
     int currentTab = 0;
     float verticalPos = 20;

     while (measurer.getPosition() < styledText.getEndIndex()) {

         // Lay out and draw each line.  All segments on a line
         // must be computed before any drawing can occur, since
         // we must know the largest ascent on the line.
         // TextLayouts are computed and stored in a Vector;
         // their horizontal positions are stored in a parallel
         // Vector.

         // lineContainsText is true after first segment is drawn
         boolean lineContainsText = false;
         boolean lineComplete = false;
         float maxAscent = 0, maxDescent = 0;
         float horizontalPos = leftMargin;
         Vector layouts = new Vector(1);
         Vector penPositions = new Vector(1);

         while (!lineComplete) {
             float wrappingWidth = rightMargin - horizontalPos;
             TextLayout layout =
                     measurer.nextLayout(wrappingWidth,
                                         tabLocations[currentTab]+1,
                                         lineContainsText);

             // layout can be null if lineContainsText is true
             if (layout != null) {
                 layouts.addElement(layout);
                 penPositions.addElement(new Float(horizontalPos));
                 horizontalPos += layout.getAdvance();
                 maxAscent = Math.max(maxAscent, layout.getAscent());
                 maxDescent = Math.max(maxDescent,
                     layout.getDescent() + layout.getLeading());
             } else {
                 lineComplete = true;
             }

             lineContainsText = true;

             if (measurer.getPosition() == tabLocations[currentTab]+1) {
                 currentTab++;
             }

             if (measurer.getPosition() == styledText.getEndIndex())
                 lineComplete = true;
             else if (horizontalPos >= tabStops[tabStops.length-1])
                 lineComplete = true;

             if (!lineComplete) {
                 // move to next tab stop
                 int j;
                 for (j=0; horizontalPos >= tabStops[j]; j++) {}
                 horizontalPos = tabStops[j];
             }
         }

         verticalPos += maxAscent;

         Enumeration layoutEnum = layouts.elements();
         Enumeration positionEnum = penPositions.elements();

         // now iterate through layouts and draw them
         while (layoutEnum.hasMoreElements()) {
             TextLayout nextLayout = (TextLayout) layoutEnum.nextElement();
             Float nextPosition = (Float) positionEnum.nextElement();
             nextLayout.draw(graphics, nextPosition.floatValue(), verticalPos);
         }

         verticalPos += maxDescent;
     }
