Hi all,
I'm planning to dynamically resize the text to fit a fixed sized label
when it overflows.
How do I determine if a certain text (variable length) will overflow a
fixed sized label?
Also, is there a way of estimating the required font size for the text
to fit inside the label?
Thanks in advance.
Hi Darwin
I think you need to look at something like pango.Layout which
has .get_pixel_size(). I don't think there will be an easy way of
estimating the font size.
If you have non-ascii users in mind, realise that you might need to keep
height in mind as well, and that translations of text might be a lot
longer than you planned for. If you make the font a lot smaller to fit
into a button, things might end up not being readable. But I'm guessing
a few things between the lines of your message.
Groete
Friedel
