Android Question Canvas: center text vertically

[LucaMs]

I use this to calculate the Y coordinate of a text to draw on a panel using a canvas, but it does not work well.

Y_CnvText = (Panel1.Height + cnv.MeasureStringHeight(mText, mTypeFace1, mTextSize)) /2

What doesn't work well ?

It is no centered.

I'm afraid that your properties are not correct after scaling like in THIS project of yours!?

Another test

Help (it should be better: HILFE )

You should use:
cnv.MeasureStringHeight("a", Typeface.DEFAULT, TextSize)
instead of
cnv.MeasureStringHeight(Text, Typeface.DEFAULT, TextSize)
