copied!<p>I finally found a more in depth example of the use of LineHeightSpan... Actually LineHeightSpan.WithDensity to be more precise... The following is the excerpt that helped me to resolve my issue:</p> <pre><code>private static class Height implements LineHeightSpan.WithDensity { private int mSize; private static float sProportion = 0; public Height(int size) { mSize = size; } public void chooseHeight(CharSequence text, int start, int end, int spanstartv, int v, Paint.FontMetricsInt fm) { // Should not get called, at least not by StaticLayout. chooseHeight(text, start, end, spanstartv, v, fm, null); } public void chooseHeight(CharSequence text, int start, int end, int spanstartv, int v, Paint.FontMetricsInt fm, TextPaint paint) { int size = mSize; if (paint != null) { size *= paint.density; } if (fm.bottom - fm.top < size) { fm.top = fm.bottom - size; fm.ascent = fm.ascent - size; } else { if (sProportion == 0) { /* * Calculate what fraction of the nominal ascent * the height of a capital letter actually is, * so that we won't reduce the ascent to less than * that unless we absolutely have to. */ Paint p = new Paint(); p.setTextSize(100); Rect r = new Rect(); p.getTextBounds("ABCDEFG", 0, 7, r); sProportion = (r.top) / p.ascent(); } int need = (int) Math.ceil(-fm.top * sProportion); if (size - fm.descent >= need) { /* * It is safe to shrink the ascent this much. */ fm.top = fm.bottom - size; fm.ascent = fm.descent - size; } else if (size >= need) { /* * We can't show all the descent, but we can at least * show all the ascent. */ fm.top = fm.ascent = -need; fm.bottom = fm.descent = fm.top + size; } else { /* * Show as much of the ascent as we can, and no descent. */ fm.top = fm.ascent = -size; fm.bottom = fm.descent = 0; } } } } </code></pre> <p>This was taken from <a href="http://alvinalexander.com/java/jwarehouse/android/core/java/android/content/res/StringBlock.java.shtml">this example</a>.</p> <p>What it does is as quoted below:</p> <blockquote> <p>Forces the text line to be the specified height, shrinking/stretching the ascent if possible, or the descent if shrinking the ascent further will make the text unreadable.</p> </blockquote> <p>I hope this helps the next person :-)</p>
