    Width:

    int stringWidth = getFont().getAdvance(yourString);`
    

    Height:

    int stringHeight = getFont().getHeight();`
    

    Those are if you’re making the calls from within one of your Field‘s methods (meaning you have extended a Field). However, if you’re simply trying to draw the string and are wondering what ax and ay represent, those are positions, not dimensions.
