The NFont . MeasureString function gives me the rendered size of text , catering for word - wrap . How can I find out the bounds of each character ? I can measure each character individually of course , but this requires me to re - implement the word - wrap rules without knowing how they ' ve been implemented in MeasureString or PaintString . & nbsp ; It ' s a clumsy approach , so I ' m hoping there ' s a way to get at / interact with the existing implementation . This might be unconnected , but I might need to generate NGlyphs and implement my own word - wrap rules - which is fine in theory , but I can ' t figure out how the NGlyph or NGlyphRun system hangs to together . & nbsp ; Any pointers much appreciated .

Hi Karl , Unfortunately the framework does not expose ways to measure individual characters other than measuring a single char at a time , which is cumbersome and error prone ( this approach will not work with many languages that contain character reordering , substitution or & nbsp ; use combining characters ). We will consider & nbsp ; making this public if this is still an issue for you - just let us know if you ' re still interested in this functionality .
