Summary | Returns the width, size or bounds of the unicode text drawn with the effective font attribute of the given object. |
Introduced | 6.5 |
Deprecated | In LiveCode 7.0 the language was changed to handle unicode transparently. This means that language functionality which previously aided unicode text manipulation is no longer required. This function should not be used in new code. measureUnicodeText(tText) is equivalent to measureText(textDecode(tText, "UTF16" )). |
