Direct Known Subclasses:
  `ParagraphView`

public class ParagraphView extends FlowView implements TabExpander
View of a simple line-wrapping paragraph that supports multiple fonts, colors, components, icons, etc. It is basically a vertical box with a margin around it. The contents of the box are a bunch of rows which are special horizontal boxes. This view creates a collection of views that represent the child elements of the paragraph element. Each of these views are placed into a row directly if they will fit, otherwise the `breakView` method is called to try and carve the view into pieces that fit.

  - ### flipEastAndWestAtEnds

    protected boolean flipEastAndWestAtEnds(int position, Position.Bias bias)
    Determines in which direction the next view lays. Consider the `View` at index n. Typically the `View`s are laid out from left to right, so that the `View` to the EAST will be at index n + 1, and the `View` to the WEST will be at index n - 1. In certain situations, such as with bidirectional text, it is possible that the `View` to EAST is not at index n + 1, but rather at index n - 1, or that the `View` to the WEST is not at index n - 1, but index n + 1. In this case this method would return true, indicating the `View`s are laid out in descending order.

    This will return true if the text is laid out right to left at position, otherwise false.

    Overrides:
      `flipEastAndWestAtEnds` in class `BoxView`
    Parameters:
      `position` - position into the model
      `bias` - either `Position.Bias.Forward` or `Position.Bias.Backward`
    Returns:
      true if the text is laid out right to left at position, otherwise false.

  - ### getFlowSpan

    public int getFlowSpan(int index)
    Fetches the constraining span to flow against for the given child index.
    Overrides:
      `getFlowSpan` in class `FlowView`
    Parameters:
      `index` - the index of the view being queried
    Returns:
      the constraining span for the given view at `index`

      1.3
    See Also:
      - `FlowView.getFlowStart(int)`

  - ### getFlowStart

    public int getFlowStart(int index)
    Fetches the location along the flow axis that the flow span will start at.
    Overrides:
      `getFlowStart` in class `FlowView`
    Parameters:
      `index` - the index of the view being queried
    Returns:

    Specified by:
      `createRow` in class `FlowView`
    Returns:
      the new `View`
    Since:
      1.3

  - ### nextTabStop

    public float nextTabStop(float x, int tabOffset)
    Returns the next tab stop position given a reference position. This view implements the tab coordinate system, and calls `getTabbedSpan` on the logical children in the process of layout to determine the desired span of the children. The logical children can delegate their tab expansion upward to the paragraph which knows how to expand tabs. `LabelView` is an example of a view that delegates its tab expansion needs upward to the paragraph.

    This is implemented to try and locate a `TabSet` in the paragraph element's attribute set. If one can be found, its settings will be used, otherwise a default expansion will be provided. The base location for tab expansion is the left inset from the paragraphs most recent allocation (which is what the layout of the children is based upon).

    Specified by:
      `nextTabStop` in interface `TabExpander`
    Parameters:
      `x` - the X reference position
      `tabOffset` - the position within the text stream that the tab occurred at >= 0
    Returns:
      the trailing end of the tab expansion >= 0
    See Also:
      - `TabSet`
      - `TabStop`
      - `LabelView`

  - ### getTabSet

    protected TabSet getTabSet()
    Gets the `Tabset` to be used in calculating tabs.
    Returns:
      the `TabSet`

  - ### getPartialSize

    protected float getPartialSize(int startOffset, int endOffset)
    Returns the size used by the views between `startOffset` and `endOffset`. This uses `getPartialView` to calculate the size if the child view implements the `TabableView` interface. If a size is needed and a `View` does not implement the `TabableView` interface, the `preferredSpan` will be used.
    Parameters:
      `startOffset` - the starting document offset >= 0
      `endOffset` - the ending document offset >= startOffset
    Returns:
      the size >= 0

  - ### findOffsetToCharactersInString

    protected int findOffsetToCharactersInString(char[] string, int start)
    Finds the next character in the document with a character in `string`, starting at offset `start`. If there are no characters found, -1 will be returned.
    Parameters:
      `string` - the string of characters
      `start` - where to start in the model >= 0
    Returns:
      the document offset, or -1 if no characters found

  - ### getTabBase

    protected float getTabBase()
    Returns where the tabs are calculated from.
    Returns:
      where tabs are calculated from

  - ### paint

    public void paint(Graphics g, Shape a)
    Renders using the given rendering surface and area on that surface. This is implemented to delegate to the superclass after stashing the base coordinate for tab calculations.
    Overrides:
      `paint` in class `BoxView`
    Parameters:
      `g` - the rendering surface to use
      `a` - the allocated region to render into
    See Also:
      - `View.paint(Graphics, Shape)`

  - ### getAlignment

    public float getAlignment(int axis)
    Determines the desired alignment for this view along an axis. This is implemented to give the alignment to the center of the first row along the y axis, and the default along the x axis.
    Overrides:
      `getAlignment` in class `BoxView`
    Parameters:
      `axis` - may be either `View.X_AXIS` or `View.Y_AXIS`
    Returns:
      the desired alignment. This should be a value between 0.0 and 1.0 inclusive, where 0 indicates alignment at the origin and 1.0 indicates alignment to the full span away from the origin. An alignment of 0.5 would be the center of the view.

  - ### breakView

    public View breakView(int axis, float len, Shape a)
    Breaks this view on the given axis at the given length.

    `ParagraphView` instances are breakable along the `Y_AXIS` only, and only if `len` is after the first line.

    Parameters:
      `axis` - may be either `View.X_AXIS` or `View.Y_AXIS`
      `len` - specifies where a potential break is desired along the given axis >= 0
      `a` - the current allocation of the view
    Returns:
      the fragment of the view that represents the given span, if the view can be broken; if the view doesn't support breaking behavior, the view itself is returned
    See Also:
      - `View.breakView(int, int, float, float)`

  - ### getBreakWeight

    public int getBreakWeight(int axis, float len)
    Gets the break weight for a given location.

    `ParagraphView` instances are breakable along the `Y_AXIS` only, and only if `len` is after the first row. If the length is less than one row, a value of `BadBreakWeight` is returned.

    Parameters:
      `axis` - may be either `View.X_AXIS` or `View.Y_AXIS`
      `len` - specifies where a potential break is desired >= 0
    Returns:
      a value indicating the attractiveness of breaking here; either `GoodBreakWeight` or `BadBreakWeight`
    See Also:
      - `View.getBreakWeight(int, float, float)`

  - ### calculateMinorAxisRequirements

    protected SizeRequirements calculateMinorAxisRequirements(int axis, SizeRequirements r)
    Calculate the needs for the paragraph along the minor axis.

    This uses size requirements of the superclass, modified to take into account the non-breakable areas at the adjacent views edges. The minimal size requirements for such views should be no less than the sum of all adjacent fragments.

    If the `axis` parameter is neither `View.X_AXIS` nor `View.Y_AXIS`, `IllegalArgumentException` is thrown. If the `r` parameter is `null,` a new `SizeRequirements` object is created, otherwise the supplied `SizeRequirements` object is returned.

    Overrides:
      `calculateMinorAxisRequirements` in class `FlowView`
    Parameters:
      `axis` - the minor axis
      `r` - the input `SizeRequirements` object
    Returns:
      the new or adjusted `SizeRequirements` object
