   Yes and no ;)
   Yes means: I’think i know a good way. No means I didn’t test it. I’ll just describe in short what i would do:

   Create a word Sprite (Mc) with size by wordcount
   Take the Bounding box of that Sprite (Rectangle)
   Place the box finding free space

   Finding free space problem (words placed in words):
   Render the words via bitmap data drawing
   Use “get colorbounds rect” to check whether ther is enough space to place the word. otherwise search for an other place
   I would do the searching from middle to outside.

   I dont know if this was clear. If it was not, just drop me a line and I will explain it in a seperate post.
