Re: flowText and MultiPage capabilities

[Kevin Maione <km...@comcast.net>]

I am using the flowtext extensions and have the identical requirement 
and was wondering if anyone had figured out a way to determine if  text 
had not been rendered (in other words flowed outside the region).
An event that notifies me of this would be nice but I would be happy to 
iterate over the text and querying some form of 'visibility' 
attribute....Kevin

    Yes there is some way, but it isn't exactly
simple.  In batik.gvt.text.GlyphLayout.textWrapTextChunks
there are two places where it iterates over the remainder
of the glyphs setting them invisible, both of these indicate
that not all of the text fit in the available text regions.

    The real question I guess I would have is how in the world
would it notify you that stuff didn't fit in the flow region?
