Eirik Bakke updated NETBEANS-4166:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
While fixing NETBEANS-346, I discovered several other editor painting 
coordinate calculations which are likely inaccurate due to rounding errors. 
Fixing these will be a bit of work, though, and it may be preferable to wait 
until specific bugs are identified before doing so, so that the changes can be 
verified to have had the desired effect.

The following members should likely be changed from an int to a float, and 
initialized from font metrics to full precision:
* org.netbeans.editor.EditorUI.defaultSpaceWidth
* org.netbeans.modules.editor.lib.drawing.DrawEngine.spaceWidth, 
defaultSpaceWidth, and possibly fragmentWidth
* org.netbeans.modules.editor.lib.drawing.DrawGraphics.defaultSpaceWidth

Changing these from int to float will require various other methods and members 
to be updated as well.

These changes will propagate to related APIs.
