> The RichTextArea control ([JDK-8301121](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8301121)), or any custom control that needs non-trivial navigation within complex or wrapped text needs a public API to get information about text layout.
>
> This change fixes the missing functionality by adding a new public method to the `Text` and `TextFlow` classes.:
>
>
> /**
> * Obtains the snapshot of the current text layout information.
> * @return the layout information
> * @since 24
> */
> public final LayoutInfo getLayoutInfo()
>
>
> The immutable `LayoutInfo` structure contains information about:
>
> - text lines: offsets and bounds
> - overall layout bounds
>
> TBD:
>
> the platform can also report additional information such as:
>
> - individual text lines' left and right side bearings (what are those?)
> - text runs within each line
