I believe getFulltextextent will do what I need. However, let me try to give
an example of what I want to do:
Say, you have pan = Navcanvas.navcanvas(...)
handle = pan.Canvas.AddScaledText(...., "test", ..., font)
Now, I wanted to have a function which should give me the dimensions of the
text that I just placed. Something like this:
result = pan.TextExtent(handle, font)
and result would have the dimensions of the "test" in screen ( or canvas)
coordinates.

Now, I believe I can get around this by using wx.ClientDC and placing the
text on the ClientDC object and then calling the GetFullTextExtent.

I hope this is a bit more clear and I did not confuse you more.
