Is it really necessary to have string width in sub-pixel width? One could expect you need to round the previously returned value in any case either by yourself or some other means before using it in any case..
Unfortunately, as for finding another way of calculating the sub-pixel width, I cannot tell is there such a way or not. And umm.. Am not too happy with this kinda changes between API levels… Just wondering out aloud.. :) — H On 11 Dec 2013, at 15:49, Ab <abe.oppenh...@gmail.com> wrote: > It is crucial for my app to be able to accurately measure Strings; I have > been usingPaint.measureText() to do this.
