Vincent de Lachaux wrote a "text to array" using SVG, it is somewhere in SVG 
demo. There's also a "formatted string length" in it, AFAICR.

Re: TEXT TO ARRAY won't break solid text

Hi Bernd,

I got an email back from 4D support; the contact thinks that there is a bug in 
that command, and filed ACI0096891. But of course I don't know if they are 
going to fix it in v14. 

I'm waiting on hmplugins to send a license number for hmFree...would like to 
use the command that returns text length (I'm guessing it's in pixels).

Thanks,
Don

TEXT TO ARRAY won't break solid text

[Don Lapin via 4D_Tech]

Does anyone know how to measure the size of an unbroken text string, in a 
particular font, size, etc, such as --

"P201+P373+P401+P502"

In a 4D Write area with two tabs (v14 Windows), I would like to see --

P201 Item stored under refrigerated conditions
P201+P373+P401+P502
 Item stored in refrigerated, dried conditions, with like items. Use
 precautions when handling. Dispose of safely.
P203 Item stored in dessicator


But because TEXT TO ARRAY doesn't work on the codes, I get --

P201 Item stored under refrigerated conditions
P201+P373+P401+P502 Item stored in refrigerated, dried conditions, with like 
items. 
 Use precautions when handling. Dispose of safely.
P203 Item stored in dessicator


Thanks,
Don
