B4X:
Dim s As String=$"I am porting a code from B4A and I should measure the height of a multiline text.
I cannot use label.SizeToFit because I have to fix the width and determine the height.I am so sorry but I don't understand
your suggestion. I am porting the baloon library for B4A in B4i. It extensively uses MeasureMultilineTextHeight to determi
ne the right height once the width is defined. Moreover I modified this library to allow the user to resize the width of the
ballons. SizeToFit doesn't appear to me able to lock the width.

In CustomListView I find this code:"$
    Log("s height:"&s.MeasureHeight(Font.DEFAULT))
    Label1.Text=s
    Dim txth As Double=Label1.Text.MeasureHeight(Label1.Font)
    Log("lbl height:"&txth)
    Label1.Height=txth
    Label2.Text=s
    Label2.SizeToFit

the log:
B4X:
Copying updated assets files (1)
Application_Start
s height:116.9492
lbl height:116.94921875
Application_Active
label2Height:320'this one is log by topright btn click(after sizetofit excute)
the label1 and label2 use the same font and fontsize (onely the colors are not same)
what's wrong with this problem please?

B4X:
'mode 1 width,2 height
Public Sub setLblWrapContent(lbl As Label,mode As Int)
    Dim h,w,ow,oh As Double
    ow=lbl.Width
    oh=lbl.Height
    h=MeasureText(lbl,lbl.Text)(1)
    w=MeasureText(lbl,lbl.Text)(0)
    If mode=1 Then
        lbl.Width=h*w/oh
    Else
        lbl.Height=h*w/ow
    End If
    lbl.SizeToFit
End Sub
Sub MeasureText(lbl As Label,txt As String) As Double()
    lbl.Text=txt
    lbl.SizeToFit
    Dim Result(2) As Double
    Result(0) = lbl.Width
    Result(1) = lbl.Height
    Return Result
End Sub
