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

<DL>
<DD>Returns the bounding rectangle of the characters in the given <tt>text</tt>.
This is the set of pixels the text would cover if drawn when constrained
to the bounding rectangle specified by <tt>rect</tt>.
<p>
The <tt>flags</tt> argument is the bitwise OR of the following flags:
<dir>
<li> Qt::AlignLeft aligns to the left border, except for
Arabic and Hebrew where it aligns to the right.
<li> Qt::AlignRight aligns to the right border, except for
Arabic and Hebrew where it aligns to the left.
<li> Qt::AlignJustify produces justified text.
<li> Qt::AlignHCenter aligns horizontally centered.
<li> Qt::AlignTop aligns to the top border.
<li> Qt::AlignBottom aligns to the bottom border.
<li> Qt::AlignVCenter aligns vertically centered
<li> Qt::AlignCenter (== <b>Qt::AlignHCenter | Qt::AlignVCenter</b>)
<li> Qt::TextSingleLine ignores newline characters in the text.
<li> Qt::TextExpandTabs expands tabs (see below)
<li> Qt::TextShowMnemonic interprets "&x" as <u>x</u>, i.e. underlined.
<li> Qt::TextWordBreak breaks the text to fit the rectangle.
</dir>
<p>
Qt::Horizontal alignment defaults to Qt::AlignLeft and vertical
alignment defaults to Qt::AlignTop.
<p>
If several of the horizontal or several of the vertical alignment
flags are set, the resulting alignment is undefined.
<p>
These flags are defined in Qt::AlignmentFlag.
<p>
If Qt::TextExpandTabs is set in <tt>flags</tt>, the following behavior is
used to interpret tab characters in the text:
<dir>
<li> If <tt>tabArray</tt> is non-null, it specifies a 0-terminated sequence of
pixel-positions for tabs in the text.
<li> If <tt>tabStops</tt> is non-zero, it is used as the tab spacing (in pixels).
</dir>
<p>
Note that the bounding rectangle may extend to the left of (0, 0),
e.g. for italicized fonts.
<p>
Newline characters are processed as line breaks.
<p>
Despite the different actual character heights, the heights of the
bounding rectangles of "Yes" and "yes" are the same.
<p>
The bounding rectangle returned by this function is somewhat larger
than that calculated by the simpler boundingRect() function. This
function uses the minLeftBearing() maximum left and minRightBearing()
right font bearings as is necessary for multi-line text to align
correctly. Also, fontHeight() and lineSpacing() are used to calculate
the height, rather than individual character heights.
