Description

Hello,

I have noticed that when Im using getTextDimensions () to know final size of a text, the returnin result is wrong if your text contains "blank spaces".

When you use plain text without "blank spaces" width measure is usualy a little bit higger than real size.

But if you use "blank spaces" then witdh measure is always lower thab reak size.

that make that you miss positioning next text, and they ovelap.
