I need to draw an opaque backing rectangle around some text I'm drawing and I can't
figure out how to get the bounds of the actual pixels that are drawn for the text
string. I've used the getStringBounds method on the FontMetrics class but it leaves
extra space above the top of the tallest character and below the baseline(this
particular text string doesn't go below the baseline).
What's the best way to accurately find out the minimum bounding box that encloses my
text?
Thanks,
John (using 1.3.1)
