Display text on Canvas other than drawString

[sengaste]

Hi, does anyone else know how to append text such as help instructions onto a canvas other than using the drawString method. I have created a program so that when a command is pressed help information from an external file (held in the jar) is read and displays as text. I have found that using the draw string method i cannot display all the text as text wrapping is not supported. Does anyone know of an alternative way of displaying text on a canvas that does not use a Form or Alert or a way you can wrap text on the canvas using the drawString

Thanks

I guess you could write your own function that will drawString char by char keeping count of how mush it has written and wrap when necessary. otherwise I haven't seen a way of doing it apart from in a Form.
