B4J Question B4XDialog Button

[Guenter Becker]

Hello,
I like to localize the button text of a b4xDialog. At this moment I have the problem that the button text will not be shown complete.

I think I have to measure the text and I have to set the buttons width accordingly. I used several snippeds from the forum like:

 Private  Sub MeasureTexWidth(Text As String,ThisFont As Font) As Double
    Dim TextObj As JavaObject
    TextObj.InitializeNewInstance("javafx.scene.text.Text",Array(Text))
    TextObj.RunMethod("setFont",Array(ThisFont))
    TextObj.RunMethod("applyCss",Null)
    Dim Bounds As JavaObject
    Bounds = TextObj.RunMethodJO("getLayoutBounds",Null)
    Log(Bounds.RunMethod("getWidth",Null))
    Return Bounds.RunMethod("getWidth",Null)
End Sub

But this will not work correct. Any Idea how to display the text complete or how to stretch the button width depending on its text?

This code measures the text width. Where is the code that changes the button width accordingly?

    If c <> "" Then

        bt=bt+1

        bw = dlg.MeasureTextWidth(c,dlg.ButtonsFont) * 1.5

        If dlg.ButtonWidth < bw Then dlg.ButtonWidth=bw
