DistanceSpan

public class DistanceSpan
extends CharacterStyle

A span that replaces the text it is attached to with the string representation of a Distance instance.

The Distance instance will be displayed by the host in a localized format, so that it will be consistent with the rest of the user interface where distance information are displayed.

For example, the following code creates a string that shows the distance as the first text in the string before the interpunct:

String interpunct = "·";
 SpannableString string = new SpannableString("  " + interpunct + " Point-of-Interest 1");
 string.setSpan(
   DistanceSpan.create(
     Distance.create(1000, "1.0", UNIT_KILOMETERS)), 0, 1, SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE);
 

The span flags (e.g. SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE) will be ignored.

This span will be ignored if it overlaps with any span that replaces text, such as another DistanceSpan, DurationSpan, or CarIconSpan. However, it is possible to apply styling to the text, such as changing colors:

String interpunct = "·";
 SpannableString string = new SpannableString("  " + interpunct + " Point-of-Interest 1");
 string.setSpan(
   DistanceSpan.create(
     Distance.create(1000, "1.0", UNIT_KILOMETERS)), 0, 1, SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE);
 string.setSpan(ForegroundCarColorSpan.create(CarColor.BLUE), 0, 1, SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
