<class name="QFontMetricsF" doc="/**
&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#QFontMetricsF(com.trolltech.qt.gui.QFontMetricsF)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QFontMetricsF&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; class provides font metrics information.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#QFontMetricsF(com.trolltech.qt.gui.QFontMetricsF)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QFontMetricsF&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; functions calculate the size of characters and strings for a given font. You can construct a &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#QFontMetricsF(com.trolltech.qt.gui.QFontMetricsF)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QFontMetricsF&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; object with an existing &lt;a href=&quot;QFont.html&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QFont&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; to obtain metrics for that font. If the font is changed later, the font metrics object is &lt;i&gt;not&lt;/i&gt; updated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Once created, the object provides functions to access the individual metrics of the font, its characters, and for strings rendered in the font.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are several functions that operate on the font: &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#ascent()&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;ascent&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#descent()&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;descent&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#height()&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;height&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#leading()&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;leading&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#lineSpacing()&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;lineSpacing&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; return the basic size properties of the font. The &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#underlinePos()&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;underlinePos&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#overlinePos()&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;overlinePos&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#strikeOutPos()&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;strikeOutPos&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#lineWidth()&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;lineWidth&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; functions, return the properties of the line that underlines, overlines or strikes out the characters. These functions are all fast.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are also some functions that operate on the set of glyphs in the font: &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#minLeftBearing()&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;minLeftBearing&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#minRightBearing()&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;minRightBearing&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#maxWidth()&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;maxWidth&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. These are by necessity slow, and we recommend avoiding them if possible.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For each character, you can get its &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#width(java.lang.String)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;width&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#leftBearing(char)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;leftBearing&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#rightBearing(char)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;rightBearing&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and find out whether it is in the font using &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#inFont(char)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;inFont&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. You can also treat the character as a string, and use the string functions on it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The string functions include &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#width(java.lang.String)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;width&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, to return the width of a string in pixels (or points, for a printer), &lt;a href=&quot;QFontMetricsF.html#boundingRect(char)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;boundingRect&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, to return a rectangle large enough to contain the rendered string, and size(), to return the size of that rectangle.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Example:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;    QFont font(&amp;quot;times&amp;quot;, 24);
    QFontMetricsF fm(font);
    qreal pixelsWide = fm.width(&amp;quot;What's the width of this text?&amp;quot;);
    qreal pixelsHigh = fm.height();&lt;/pre&gt;
