How to center a drawString in Java? [closed]

Answer 1

Horizontally...

String text = "...";
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D)g.create();
FontMetrics fm = g2d.getFontMetrics();
int x = (getWidth() - fm.stringWidth(text)) / 2;

Vertically...

String text = "...";
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D)g.create();
FontMetrics fm = g2d.getFontMetrics();
int y = ((getHeight() - fm.getHeight()) / 2) + fm.getAscent();
