the size of the label's text, taking into account truncation
Since:
2.0

calculateTextSize

protected 
Dimension calculateTextSize()
Calculates and returns the size of the Label's text. Note that this Dimension is calculated using the Label's full text, regardless of whether or not its text is currently truncated. If text size considering current truncation is desired, use calculateSubStringTextSize().

Returns a hint indicating the smallest desireable size for the IFigure. The returned dimension may be by reference, and it must not be modified by the caller.

Specified by:
getMinimumSize in interface IFigure
Overrides:
getMinimumSize in class Figure

Since:
2.0

getText

public java.lang.String getText()
Returns the text of the label. Note that this is the complete text of the label, regardless of whether it is currently being truncated. Call getSubStringText() to return the label's current text contents with truncation considered.

2.0

getTextSize

protected 
Dimension getTextSize()
Returns the size of the label's complete text. Note that the text used to make this calculation is the label's full text, regardless of whether the label's text is currently being truncated and is displaying an ellipsis.

Returns:
the size of this label's complete text
Since:
2.0
