Introduction

In this page you can find the methods, fields and constructors for android.graphics Paint.

The text is from its open source code.

Field

int	ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG Paint flag that enables antialiasing when drawing.

int	UNDERLINE_TEXT_FLAG Paint flag that applies an underline decoration to drawn text.
int	STRIKE_THRU_TEXT_FLAG Paint flag that applies a strike-through decoration to drawn text.
int	FAKE_BOLD_TEXT_FLAG Paint flag that applies a synthetic bolding effect to drawn text.
int	LINEAR_TEXT_FLAG Paint flag that enables smooth linear scaling of text.
int	SUBPIXEL_TEXT_FLAG Paint flag that enables subpixel positioning of text.
int	DEV_KERN_TEXT_FLAG Legacy Paint flag, no longer used.
int	HINTING_ON Font hinter option that enables font hinting.

Constructor

	Paint() Create a new paint with default settings.
	Paint(int flags) Create a new paint with the specified flags.
	Paint(Paint paint) Create a new paint, initialized with the attributes in the specified paint parameter.

Method

float	ascent() Return the distance above (negative) the baseline (ascent) based on the current typeface and text size.
int	breakText(String text, boolean measureForwards, float maxWidth, float[] measuredWidth) Measure the text, stopping early if the measured width exceeds maxWidth.
void	clearShadowLayer() Clear the shadow layer.
float	descent() Return the distance below (positive) the baseline (descent) based on the current typeface and text size.
int	getAlpha() Helper to getColor() that just returns the color's alpha value.
int	getColor() Return the paint's color.
FontMetrics	getFontMetrics() Allocates a new FontMetrics object, and then calls getFontMetrics(fm) with it, returning the object.
float	getFontMetrics(FontMetrics metrics) Return the font's recommended interline spacing, given the Paint's settings for typeface, textSize, etc.
FontMetricsInt	getFontMetricsInt()
int	getFontMetricsInt(FontMetricsInt fmi) Return the font's interline spacing, given the Paint's settings for typeface, textSize, etc.
float	getFontSpacing() Return the recommend line spacing based on the current typeface and text size.
Cap	getStrokeCap() Return the paint's Cap, controlling how the start and end of stroked lines and paths are treated.
float	getStrokeWidth() Return the width for stroking.
Style	getStyle() Return the paint's style, used for controlling how primitives' geometries are interpreted (except for drawBitmap, which always assumes FILL_STYLE).
Align	getTextAlign() Return the paint's Align value for drawing text.
void	getTextBounds(String text, int start, int end, Rect bounds) Return in bounds (allocated by the caller) the smallest rectangle that encloses all of the characters, with an implied origin at (0,0).
void	getTextBounds(CharSequence text, int start, int end, Rect bounds) Return in bounds (allocated by the caller) the smallest rectangle that encloses all of the characters, with an implied origin at (0,0).
void	getTextBounds(char[] text, int index, int count, Rect bounds) Return in bounds (allocated by the caller) the smallest rectangle that encloses all of the characters, with an implied origin at (0,0).
void	getTextPath(char[] text, int index, int count, float x, float y, Path path) Return the path (outline) for the specified text.
void	getTextPath(String text, int start, int end, float x, float y, Path path) Return the path (outline) for the specified text.
float	getTextSize() Return the paint's text size.
int	getTextWidths(String text, float[] widths) Return the advance widths for the characters in the string.
Typeface	getTypeface() Get the paint's typeface object.
boolean	hasGlyph(String string) Determine whether the typeface set on the paint has a glyph supporting the string.
float	measureText(String text) Return the width of the text.
float	measureText(char[] text, int index, int count) Return the width of the text.
float	measureText(String text, int start, int end) Return the width of the text.
float	measureText(CharSequence text, int start, int end) Return the width of the text.
void	reset() Restores the paint to its default settings.
void	set(Paint src) Copy the fields from src into this paint.
void	setAlpha(int a) Helper to setColor(), that only assigns the color's alpha value, leaving its r,g,b values unchanged.
void	setAntiAlias(boolean aa) Helper for setFlags(), setting or clearing the ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG bit AntiAliasing smooths out the edges of what is being drawn, but is has no impact on the interior of the shape.
void	setARGB(int a, int r, int g, int b) Helper to setColor(), that takes a,r,g,b and constructs the color int
void	setColor(@ColorInt int color) Set the paint's color.
ColorFilter	setColorFilter(ColorFilter filter) Set or clear the paint's colorfilter, returning the parameter.
void	setDither(boolean dither) Helper for setFlags(), setting or clearing the DITHER_FLAG bit Dithering affects how colors that are higher precision than the device are down-sampled.
void	setFakeBoldText(boolean fakeBoldText) Helper for setFlags(), setting or clearing the FAKE_BOLD_TEXT_FLAG bit
void	setFilterBitmap(boolean filter) Helper for setFlags(), setting or clearing the FILTER_BITMAP_FLAG bit.
void	setFlags(int flags) Set the paint's flags.
MaskFilter	setMaskFilter(MaskFilter maskfilter) Set or clear the maskfilter object.
PathEffect	setPathEffect(PathEffect effect) Set or clear the patheffect object.
Shader	setShader(Shader shader) Set or clear the shader object.
void	setShadowLayer(float radius, float dx, float dy, int shadowColor) This draws a shadow layer below the main layer, with the specified offset and color, and blur radius.
