	\brief Hook method called when the string item is drawn.

	The background is drawn either \c B_LIST_BACKGROUND_COLOR or

	selected or not.

	Similarly, the text is drawn either \c B_LIST_ITEM_TEXT_COLOR or
	\c B_LIST_SELECTED_ITEM_TEXT_COLOR.

	The text is drawn in a lighter color if the item is disabled to indicate
	that it may not be selected. A darker color is used instead if
	\c B_LIST_BACKGROUND_COLOR is set to a dark color.

	\param owner The string item's parent.
	\param frame The frame to draw in.
	\param complete Whether or not to draw the background in addition to the

	The default implementation sets the width of the list item to the width of
	\a owner and sets the height to fit \a font.

	\param owner The list item's new \a owner.
	\param font The font set to the list item's current \a owner.

/*!
	\fn float BStringItem::BaselineOffset() const
	\brief Returns the offset from the top of the frame to the base line of
	      the text.

	The baseline is the line upon which the letters "sit" and below which
	descenders extend. This value is set in the Update() method.

	This may be overridden by derived classes to set the base line offset.

	\returns The offset to the baseline of the text as a float.
