how to measure text width in kineticjs?

Question

Is there a method or workaround to return the text width of a string in a Text Shape, in KineticJs?

I would need it to position precisely the TextShape on the canvas.

Kinetic.Text has getTextHeight() and getTextWidht() methods to do this for you.

This might help you. It demonstrates how to get the width of some text. There is also a link to another example showing how to do this for multi-line text, here.
