Both StyledText and LineBreak are TextFragments and are used in a container, typically TextFlow. So just add your StyledText and LineBreaks to a TextFlow. Actually, this is what addMarkup() is doing under the hood.
Thanks for your fast response.
Can you give me an example how to create a LineBreak TextFragment?
A StyledText TextFragment is easy: StyledText styledText = new StyledText(text, fontsize, font, color);
But I can't find an example how to do the same with a LinkeBreak.
Sorry it's called NewLine, not LineBreak. So just create a NewLine, e.g. new NewLine(fontSize)
Perfect thanks, it worked :) 👍
Full example in case anybody runs into the same issue:
NewLine linebreak = new NewLine(fontSize);
TextFlow textflow = new TextFlow();
textflow.add("first line");
textflow.add(linebreak);
textflow.add("second line");
textflow.add(linebreak);
textflow.add("third line");
textflow.drawText(contentStream, posX, posY, Alignment.Left, drawListener);
I want to add line breaks to a StyledText Element but can't manage to do it.
If a styled text contains a line break "\n", I get the following error message:
"StyledText must not contain line breaks, use TextFragment.LINEBREAK for that"
But I can't find an example in the documentation that shows how use TextFragment.LINEBREAK.
Do you have an example or a alternative solution for this? I also tried to use .addMarkup() but that does not support PDType0Font only BaseFont.
