You might notice that the browser doesn't have word wrap. Really long lines of text flow right off the side of the window and you can't read them. Word wrap is the way most browsers (and other apps) will chop those long lines into shorter lines automatically, so you can read all of it.
How would you do that?
Hints:
- This will all be inside the
Rendererclass. - In
handle_data - Wrap to 300 pixels wide. Don't draw anything beyond that.
- Do it approximately first.
- Right now, it receives all the text inside each HTML tag in one go, for
example
<b>All this text arrives in one call to that function and this might be too wide to fit on the screen in one line.</b> - Maybe you can split that into words and draw one word at a time?
- That sounds like a loop, right?
- The Python
splitfunction might be useful. - We already measure how wide the text was. Perhaps you can use that to decide when to start a new line?
- If you're a perfectionist, you might find that some words have gone too far.
