  • getNumberOfChars: Gets the total number of characters that are available for rendering within the current element.
  • getRotationOfChar: Gets the rotation value of the specified character, relative to the current user coordinate system where the glyphs that corresponding to the specified character are rendered.
  • getStartPositionOfChar: Gets the current text position of the specified character before the character is rendered in the user coordinate system where the glyphs that correspond to the specified character are rendered.
  • getSubStringLength: Calculates the total sum of all advance values from rendering the specified substring of the characters.
