font extent question

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

Is there a way to find the extent of a font w/o having to have an editText
control open? My problem is i'm trying to determine font size and extent
before my program launches any windows and controls....so I can select these
parameters before launching.

this method (charSize = getTextExtent(id,"abcdefghij")) requires an existing
control.

If i'm on the wrong track give me a hint...
