TickerText.getCharactersVisible() doesn't count spaces but TickerText.getCharactersMaximum() does

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Create a Ticker text object and use a string with spaces
2. Then try using getCharactersVisible()and getCharactersMaximum()
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
getCharactersVisible()and getCharactersMaximum()should be equal after a fixed 
period of time

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
commit ed18d7a685bdcc54855ecbb77488e79d321c1200 on windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.
Also, it would be nice if you could set the Max characters for TickerText

To do the last request you would only need to add a ticker text constructor 
like this:
    public TickerText(final float pX, final float pY, final IFont pFont, int pMaximumCharacters, final String pText, final TickerTextOptions pTickerTextOptions, final VertexBufferObjectManager pVertexBufferObjectManager) {
        super(pX, pY, pFont, pText, pMaximumCharacters, pTickerTextOptions, pVertexBufferObjectManager);

        this.mTickerTextOptions = pTickerTextOptions;

        this.mDuration = this.mCharactersMaximum * this.mTickerTextOptions.mCharactersPerSecond;
    }

Also I should have mentioned that I am using 
TickerText.setAutoWrap(AutoWrap.WORDS);
Not sure if that would effect the spaces not being seen.
