Printed string width and height on ILI9341 Color Touchscreen display

[nefarious]

Is there a way to get the screen size for a printed string on this device? I think I have looked everywhere and can't find it.

It doesn't seem to be immediately available in the ILI9341_t3_font_t struct.

Is the only alternative to guess until it looks correct?

It really is too bad you can't delete stupid threads, I can't believe it took me this long to figure this out.

So, you fear that this stupidity will be preserved for ever? I’ll already close the thread, if you really want to have it deleted, PM me.

Haven't looked at that for some time - what is the simple answer? I suppose it is string_len * fixed char width?
