Hello,

Anyone here know how to get the final size of a TextFlow object after performing the following call:

textFlow = TextConverter.importToFlow (S, TextConverter .TEXT\_FIELD\_HTML\_FORMAT);

I have tried measureText and measureHTMLText, but they both return values that are just short of the actual size so the right and bottom edges are cropped out.
