Finding text's bounding rect in Core Text
I'm trying to find the boundaries of a line of text in Core Text. For simplicity, assume it has a single character. At the moment I'm using the following method:
line = CTLineCreateWithAttributedString(attrString);
rect = CTLineGetImageBounds(line, context);
It works most of the times, but for some characters, like math italic d (Unicode: 0x1D451) or math italic q (Unicode: 0x1D45E), the width is a bit short.
I tried using CTLineGetTypographicBounds() or CTFramesetterSuggestFrameSizeWithConstraints , but they didn't help either (I think they use glyph's advance to find the width, not its graphical width.) As the font itself isn't italic, I also can't use slant angle to correct this.
I tried accessing the glyphs directly and using CTFontCreatePathForGlyph() , but failed as CGGlyph and UniChar are both 16-bits and I need 32-bit characters.
Does anyone know if I'm doing anything wrong? If so, what's the right way?
Update:
To make sure it's not a problem related to the font, I used different fonts. The problem exists even for ASCII characters in Arial Italic.
Update:
Ignore my previous update! It turns out this one (problem with Arial Italic) was my own bug. The first problem still stands though.
Following the bug report I made, apparently this is a CoreText problem, appearing in rare cases. Will let you know as soon as I find a fix.
Update: March 15 '12
I forgot to update this sooner, but this is fixed. The fix is in OS X Lion / iOS 5.
As far as I can tell, CTLineGetImageBounds is the correct function to use. I suggest filing a bug report in RadarWeb.
