在android中的圆形路径上绘制文本

Question

I need to draw a text on a circle path. I have tried the drawTextOnPath() method. But for texts like "fertile window" in the image attched, the text rotates and is not readable.

Code I have used :

customPath2.addArc(mCircleRectF, 30F, 64.28F);
    customPaint2.setAntiAlias(true);
    customPaint2.setDither(true);
    customPaint2.setStrokeWidth(mCircleStrokeWidth);
    customPaint2.setColor(Color.parseColor("#93BE66"));
    customPaint2.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE);
    customPaint2.setStrokeCap(Paint.Cap.ROUND);
    canvas.drawPath(customPath2, customPaint2);

    titlePaint.setColor(Color.parseColor("#ffffff"));
    titlePaint.setAntiAlias(true);
    titlePaint.setTypeface(Typeface.MONOSPACE);  titlePaint.setLetterSpacing(0.07F);
    titlePaint.setTextAlign(Paint.Align.CENTER);
    titlePaint.setTextSize(35f);

    canvas.drawTextOnPath("FERTILE WINDOW", customPath2, 0, 8, titlePaint);

Thanks to the comments, to draw the text "outward", make the arc counterclockwise .
In your example, startAngle becomes 94.28 and sweepAngle becomes -64.28 .

Kotlin:

val enclosingRect = RectF(0f, 0f, 200f, 200f)
val path = Path()
path.addArc(enclosingRect, 94.28f, -64.28f)
canvas.drawTextOnPath("FERTILE WINDOW", path, 0f, 0f, myPaint)

Java:

RectF enclosingRect = new RectF(0f, 0f, 200f, 200f);
Path path = new Path();
path.addArc(enclosingRect, 94.28f, -64.28f);
canvas.drawTextOnPath("FERTILE WINDOW", path, 0f, 0f, myPaint);

That was for texts at the bottom of the circle (from 0 to 180 or from -180 to -360 degrees).

For angles between 180 and 360 or 0 and -180 degrees you want to draw the arcs clockwise .
