public class StringBounds

extends java.lang.Object

StringBounds implements a simple string bounds computation tool that fixes a frustrating bug in at least some Java2D implementations. The bug causes Java2D to fail to compute string bounds when the font size is too small. This tool fixes the problem by normalizing the font size during the bounds computation, and by scaling the resulting bounding box down again.

Since:

JDK1.1
