I used this code:
Rect bounds=new Rect();
tv.getPaint().getTextBounds(text,0, text.length(),bounds);
float textWidth=bounds.width();
float textHeight=bounds.height();
and it works well horizontally... also vertical size is ok... but the text is painted in a position lower than what I expect...
these links was not useful:
auto scale textview text to fit within bounds
what should I change?
Just set your layout params to WRAP_CONTENT for the height. If your text is in a LinearLayout it would look like this:
LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.WRAP_CONTENT, LinearLayout.WRAP_CONTENT);
myTextView.setLayoutParams(params);
If you're using a XML layout just set your TextView's layout_height to wrap_content. If the text is still painted lower than you expect check whats the padding set to the TextView.
