                                            int p0)
Provides a facility to map screen coordinates into a model location. For a given text fragment and start location within this fragment, this method determines the model location so that the resulting fragment fits best into the span [x0, x]. This method rounds up to the next location, so that the resulting fragment will be the smallest fragment of the text, that is greater than the specified span.
Parameters:
s - the text segment
fm - the font metrics to use
x0 - the starting screen location
x - the target screen location at which the requested fragment should end
te - the tab expander to use; if this is null, TABs are expanded to one space character
p0 - the starting model location
Returns:
the model location, so that the resulting fragment fits within the specified span

getTabbedTextOffset

public static final int getTabbedTextOffset(Segment s,
                                            FontMetrics fm,
                                            int x0,
                                            int x,
                                            TabExpander te,
                                            int p0,
                                            boolean round)
Provides a facility to map screen coordinates into a model location. For a given text fragment and start location within this fragment, this method determines the model location so that the resulting fragment fits best into the span [x0, x]. The parameter round controls which model location is returned if the view coordinates are on a character: If round is true, then the result is rounded up to the next character, so that the resulting fragment is the smallest fragment that is larger than the specified span. If round is false, then the resulting fragment is the largest fragment that is smaller than the specified span.
Parameters:
s - the text segment
fm - the font metrics to use
x0 - the starting screen location
x - the target screen location at which the requested fragment should end
te - the tab expander to use; if this is null, TABs are expanded to one space character
p0 - the starting model location
round - if true round up to the next location, otherwise round down to the current location
Returns:
the model location, so that the resulting fragment fits within the specified span

getTabbedTextWidth

public static final int getTabbedTextWidth(Segment s,
                                           FontMetrics metrics,
                                           int x,
                                           TabExpander e,
                                           int startOffset)
Determines the width, that the given text s would take if it was printed with the given FontMetrics on the specified screen position.
Parameters:
