Fina,
TextView draws text using this:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/Layout.html
- note the draw() method
Specifically, it uses this subclass, which may be only necessary for
editing (not just drawing):
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/DynamicLayout.html
Layout.draw() already handles drawing text that may consist of multiple
Spannable objects, that's what actually provides support for various
HTML tags, as listed by lbendin.
It should be possible to use android.text.Layout in your own code. Look
at TextView source to see how it can be instantiated and how to make it
draw() itself.

I thought you are using a textview. I don't know if the canvas
actually supports it.
do something like
myTextView.setText(Html.fromHtml(myHtmlString))
by the way, I found the list of supported tags:
•br
•p
•div
•em
•b
•strong
•cite
•dfn
•i
•big
•small
•font
•blockquote
•tt
•monospace
•a
•u
•sup
•sub

Hi! Thanks for your answer.
For my purpose, I just need the tags you mentioned. The problem is
that when I send the text to the rectangle, it loose the format. I do
something like:
CharSequence myString; //it has for example<b>Hello</b> world
//I dont know if this is correct
myString = Html.fromHtml(myString);
//and now I paint the text
canvas.drawText(myString,...);
But this isn't working, and I can't use a webView(or even a textView)
because I paint my view manually, with canvas and rectangles...I don't
know if there is a way to paint a textView, for example, in a BitMap.

While it is possible, it is also very limited. Only a few HTML tags
are honoured, like smaller/bigger, bold etc. I think that even for
this little functionality you will spend a whole HTML rendering engine
in memory, and that's just not worth it.
If you must, use a webview.

Hi!!
I'm trying to paint a rectangle, and inside it, put some text which is
"html-format" (sorry for my english, it is so bad ) I use CharSequence
(because this supports html) instead of String, and I call drawText
with those parameters, but the format isn't painted.
Any idea? is it possible?
Thanks a lot!- Hide quoted text -
