Avoid to trim text in AbstractTextPainter [message #1625361]

Hello,

I want to display text with whitespace at the beginning, but the AbstractTextPainter omits all leading and trailing whitespace in the method

getTextToDisplay(..) > text = text.trim()

For testing purpose I created a new AbstractTextPainter identically to the original one, but I removed the trim. Now, all leading whitespaces of the text remain.

But I don't want a custom AbstractTextPainter with that small change. Is there another possiblity to maintain leading whitespaces of the input text? Or could you make a new option in the AbstractTextPainter to enable/disable text trimming, like:

public AbstractTextPainter(boolean keepWhitespace, ...) { ... }

getTextToDisplay(keepWhitespace, ...) { if (keepWhitespace) text = text.trim ... }

Best Regards,
Michael

1. Create an enhancement ticket in Bugzilla
2. Implement the change
3. Contribute the change via Gerrit

I would prefer a member variable with getters and setters instead of another constructor parameter.
