rendering - Whether current character rendered width depends from previous character in Android -

i have question 1 android text rendering detail: whether current character rendered width depends previos character in android text renderer (for example in textview)?

for example if char 'x' have width equals x_w , 'y' - y_w, string "xy" have equals

x_w + y_w 

?

some more details: point should measure strings quiсk possible. want measure once each letter (character) text using paint.gettextwidths(...) , jsut use work characters width.

depends on font. it's not assume, if want width of string, measure full string.

if absolutely need that, use monospace font.
