it works correctly but if smaller then the textsize is too large even though the canvas MeasureStringHeight suggests that it should fit?

The link is quite old from 2010 and does not address the 'CENTER' position. Correct, but it did nicely illustrate the origin point of the drawtext method which is what I was attempting to emphasize. It should also be noted that the text is drawn starting from the origin point, UP and left/right from the origin point. So, if you wish to correctly center the text on the Y axis you should add 1/2 of the text height to your Y value (see Canvas.MeasureStringHeight)....

Unfortunately your code will not work in all cases because Canvas1.MeasureStringHeight returns different values depending on the text. Example: Canvas1.MeasureStringHeight("a", Typeface.DEFAULT, 16) Canvas1.MeasureStringHeight("A", Typeface.DEFAULT, 16) Canvas1.MeasureStringHeight("Aj", Typeface.DEFAULT, 16) These three statements return different values ! The factor...
