This is one proposed solution for https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8304350
`java.awt.Font.getStringBounds(char[],int,int,FontRenderContext)` applies a heuristic to determine whether the question it's answering is "simple" or not. The bug described in 8304350 only occurs in the simple=true branch. Extend the "simple?" heuristic to consider a tracking attribute not-simple and to use the complex branch in those cases. One could argue that the root bug still exists: the simple path goes on to delegate to `sun.font.FontDesignMetrics.getMetrics(Font,FontRenderContext)`, although that's a private/internal API. ------------- Commit messages: - 8304350: Font.getStringBounds calculates wrong width for TextAttribute.TRACKING other than 0.0 Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/13352/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=13352&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8304350 Stats: 4 lines in 1 file changed: 2 ins; 0 del; 2 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/13352.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk.git pull/13352/head:pull/13352 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/13352
