im using pure java.awt to draw and fill a textoutline,
`x,y,width,height` represents the rectangle.
`alignX` and `alignY` are numbers between 0 and 1 representing the percentage of width and height. (this can be used to align text to the center,top,bottom,left and right.
`alignText()` is probably as good as its gonna get, maybe.
`scaleFont()` seems very improper to me because i have to set textSize to maxTextSize and then create two fonts... but its the only method i could come up with right now.
So what would be a better way to go about scaling the font? while maintaining speed.#Proper methods to Scale and Align text within a rectangle.

Detected code, here are some useful tools:

to scale font, just increase the size
if you want to warp font, you can draw the font to an image & adjust the width & height. although know that it could affect visuals

it'll increase/decrease in size based on the rectangle size. (which can also be resized in a linear manner or directly set to a certain size)
that being said the text can't just increase or decrease arbitrarily , it has to position/scale relative to the rectangle in one frame.
what i have right now works fine, but its a tad bit off and also just seems like im overcomplicating the scaling a bit, code wise.

whats off about it? how it loses height when sized horizontally?

the positioning is based on 4% of the width size, which isn't really great when the label is tiny. (it'll anchor more to the right for some reason) just bad math on my end.

and as for the height, this is ideal for my case, it'll shrink on both axis to prevent stretching/warping.
will help me with wrapping later as well.
here is the vertical rescale.
