在Javascript中获取字符宽度 [英] Getting character width in Javascript

问题描述

我想得到一个字符的宽度，用于计算字符串内任何给定字符（以像素为单位）的位置。我认为这很容易，因为我使用的是等宽字体，但我遇到了问题。

I would like to get the width of a character for calculating the position of any given character (in pixels) inside a string. I figure this would be easy since I am using a monospace font but I have a problem.

我已经尝试了这个答案但这对大字符串不起作用。精度太差了，这意味着它可以工作，我可以得到字符串中前几个字符的位置但是之后，比方说10个字符，精度是如此之差，以至于我得到的字符距离实际上是远远的先给出角色的位置。

I have tried the suggestions in this answer but this doesn't work for large strings. The precision is too poor which means that it works and I can get the position of the first few characters in the string but after, say 10 characters, the precision is so bad that the position I get for the character is so far off it's actually giving the position of the character before.

我想做的是得到一个角色的宽度，这样我就可以这样写：

What I would like to do is get the width of a character so I can just write something like this:

var charWidth = ???;
var position = 5; // Shuold get the position of the fifth character in the string
var calculatedPosition = charWidth * position;

推荐答案

试试这个解决方案，由Ben Ripkens开发

CSS：

.textDimensionCalculation {
    position: absolute;
    visibility: hidden;
    height: auto;
    width: auto;
    white-space: nowrap;
}

JS：

var calculateWordDimensions = function(text, classes, escape) {
    classes = classes || [];

    if (escape === undefined) {
        escape = true;
    }

    classes.push('textDimensionCalculation');

    var div = document.createElement('div');
    div.setAttribute('class', classes.join(' '));

    if (escape) {
        $(div).text(text);
    } else {
        div.innerHTML = text;
    }

    document.body.appendChild(div);

    var dimensions = {
        width : jQuery(div).outerWidth(),
        height : jQuery(div).outerHeight()
    };

    div.parentNode.removeChild(div);

    return dimensions;
};

在他的博客上，他写道

在这个小片段的帮助下，我们现在可以像这样计算文本
的尺寸。：

With the help of this little snippet we can now calculate the text dimensions like this.:

var dimensions = calculateWordDimensions('42 is the answer!'); <!--obviously a hitchhikers guide fan, lol --->

console.log(dimensions.width);
console.log(dimensions.height);

alternate [jquery]解决方案 Freo

$.fn.textWidth = function(text, font) {
    if (!$.fn.textWidth.fakeEl) $.fn.textWidth.fakeEl = $('<span>').hide().appendTo(document.body);
    $.fn.textWidth.fakeEl.text(text || this.val() || this.text()).css('font', font || this.css('font'));
    return $.fn.textWidth.fakeEl.width();
};
