SuperscriptSpan

public class SuperscriptSpan
extends MetricAffectingSpan implements ParcelableSpan

java.lang.Object
↳	android.text.style.CharacterStyle
	↳	android.text.style.MetricAffectingSpan
		↳	android.text.style.SuperscriptSpan

The span that moves the position of the text baseline higher.

The span can be used like this:

SpannableString string = new SpannableString("1st example"); string.setSpan(new SuperscriptSpan(), 1, 3, Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);

Text with SuperscriptSpan.

Note: Since the span affects the position of the text, if the text is on the first line of a TextView, it may appear cut. This can be avoided by decreasing the text size with an AbsoluteSizeSpan

Summary

Inherited constants

From interface android.os.Parcelable

`int`	`CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR` Descriptor bit used with `describeContents()`: indicates that the Parcelable object's flattened representation includes a file descriptor.
`int`	`PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE` Flag for use with `writeToParcel(Parcel, int)`: the object being written is a return value, that is the result of a function such as "`Parcelable someFunction()`", "`void someFunction(out Parcelable)`", or "`void someFunction(inout Parcelable)`".

Public constructors
`SuperscriptSpan()` Creates a `SuperscriptSpan`.
`SuperscriptSpan(Parcel src)` Creates a `SuperscriptSpan` from a parcel.

Public methods
`int`	`describeContents()` Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation.
`int`	`getSpanTypeId()` Return a special type identifier for this span class.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`void`	`updateDrawState(TextPaint textPaint)`
`void`	`updateMeasureState(TextPaint textPaint)` Classes that extend MetricAffectingSpan implement this method to update the text formatting in a way that can change the width or height of characters.
`void`	`writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags)` Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Inherited methods

From class android.text.style.MetricAffectingSpan

`MetricAffectingSpan`	`getUnderlying()` Returns "this" for most MetricAffectingSpans, but for MetricAffectingSpans that were generated by `CharacterStyle.wrap(CharacterStyle)`, returns the underlying MetricAffectingSpan.
`abstract void`	`updateMeasureState(TextPaint textPaint)` Classes that extend MetricAffectingSpan implement this method to update the text formatting in a way that can change the width or height of characters.

From class android.text.style.CharacterStyle

`CharacterStyle`	`getUnderlying()` Returns "this" for most CharacterStyles, but for CharacterStyles that were generated by `wrap(CharacterStyle)`, returns the underlying CharacterStyle.
`abstract void`	`updateDrawState(TextPaint tp)`
`static CharacterStyle`	`wrap(CharacterStyle cs)` A given CharacterStyle can only applied to a single region of a given Spanned.

From class java.lang.Object

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`void`	`finalize()` Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()` Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`final void`	`notify()` Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()` Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis)` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted.

From interface android.text.ParcelableSpan

abstract int

getSpanTypeId()

Return a special type identifier for this span class.

From interface android.os.Parcelable

`abstract int`	`describeContents()` Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation.
`abstract void`	`writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags)` Flatten this object in to a Parcel.
