Builder
class Builder
kotlin.Any | |
↳ | android.text.Layout.Builder |
A builder class for Layout object. Different from StaticLayout.Builder
, this builder generates the optimal layout based on input. If the given text and parameters can be rendered with BoringLayout
, this builder generates BoringLayout
instance. Otherwise, StaticLayout
instance is generated.

IntArray?: array of indents values for the left margins in pixels. This value may be null . |
Return | |
---|---|

setLineSpacingAmount
fun setLineSpacingAmount(amount: Float): Layout.Builder
Set the line spacing amount. The specified amount of pixels will be added to each line. The default value is 0
. The negative value is allowed for squeezing lines.
Parameters | |
---|---|
amount |
Float: an amount of pixels to be added to line height. |
Return | |
---|---|

setMaxLines
fun setMaxLines(maxLines: Int): Layout.Builder
Set the maximum number of lines. The default value is unlimited.
Parameters | |
---|---|
maxLines |
Int: maximum number of lines in the layout. Value is 1 or greater |
Return | |
---|---|
Layout.Builder |
this builder instance. This value cannot be null . |
setMinimumFontMetrics
fun setMinimumFontMetrics(minimumFontMetrics: Paint.FontMetrics?): Layout.Builder
Set the minimum font metrics used for line spacing.
null
is the default value. If null
is set or left it as default, the font metrics obtained by Paint#getFontMetricsForLocale(Paint.FontMetrics)
is used.
The minimum meaning here is the minimum value of line spacing: maximum value of Paint#ascent()
, minimum value of Paint#descent()
.
By setting this value, each line will have minimum line spacing regardless of the text rendered. For example, usually Japanese script has larger vertical metrics than Latin script. By setting the metrics obtained by Paint#getFontMetricsForLocale(Paint.FontMetrics)
for Japanese or leave it null
if the Paint's locale is Japanese, the line spacing for Japanese is reserved if the text is an English text. If the vertical metrics of the text is larger than Japanese, for example Burmese, the bigger font metrics is used.
Parameters | |
---|---|
minimumFontMetrics |
Paint.FontMetrics?: A minimum font metrics. Passing null for using the value obtained by Paint#getFontMetricsForLocale(Paint.FontMetrics) |

setRightIndents
fun setRightIndents(rightIndents: IntArray?): Layout.Builder
Set visually right indents in pixels per lines. For the lines past the last element in the array, the last element repeats. Passing null for disabling indents. Note that even with the RTL layout, this method reserve spacing at the visually right of the line. The default value is null
.
Parameters | |
---|---|
rightIndents |
IntArray?: array of indents values for the right margins in pixels. This value may be null . |
Return | |
---|---|
Layout.Builder |
this builder instance. |
setShiftDrawingOffsetForStartOverhang
fun setShiftDrawingOffsetForStartOverhang(shiftDrawingOffsetForStartOverhang: Boolean): Layout.Builder
Set true for shifting the drawing x offset for showing overhang at the start position. This flag is ignored if the getUseBoundsForWidth()
is false. If this value is false, the Layout draws text from the zero even if there is a glyph stroke in a region where the x coordinate is negative. If this value is true, the Layout draws text with shifting the x coordinate of the drawing bounding box. This value is false by default.
Parameters | |
---|---|
shiftDrawingOffsetForStartOverhang |
Boolean: true for shifting the drawing offset for showing the stroke that is in the region where the x coordinate is negative. |
Return | |
---|---|
Layout.Builder |
This value cannot be null . |
setTextDirectionHeuristic
fun setTextDirectionHeuristic(textDirection: TextDirectionHeuristic): Layout.Builder
Set the text direction heuristics. The text direction heuristics is used to resolve text direction on the text. The default value is TextDirectionHeuristics#FIRSTSTRONG_LTR
Parameters | |
---|---|
textDirection |
TextDirectionHeuristic: a text direction heuristic. This value cannot be null . |
Return | |
---|---|
Layout.Builder |
this builder instance. This value cannot be null . |
setUseBoundsForWidth
fun setUseBoundsForWidth(useBoundsForWidth: Boolean): Layout.Builder
Set true for using width of bounding box as a source of automatic line breaking and drawing. If this value is false, the Layout determines the drawing offset and automatic line breaking based on total advances. By setting true, use all joined glyph's bounding boxes as a source of text width. If the font has glyphs that have negative bearing X or its xMax is greater than advance, the glyph clipping can happen because the drawing area may be bigger. By setting this to true, the Layout will reserve more spaces for drawing.
Parameters | |
---|---|
useBoundsForWidth |
Boolean: True for using bounding box, false for advances. |
Return | |
---|---|
Layout.Builder |
this builder instance This value cannot be null . |
