I want to use Measurestring in a Class.
In a form I write cInt(Me.CreateG raphics.Measure string("Text", mFont).Width)
What do I write in a class (I dont't have the Me.CreateGraphi cs there...)

You need a referece to a Graphics object or an object you can create a
Graphics object from.

The result of MeasureString depends on the control (or printer) you want to
display the text on. So, where do you want to display it? On solution is to
pass a graphics object to the class.
BTW, you should dispose the graphics object after usage:
Instead of
cInt(Me.CreateG raphics.Measure string("Text", mFont).Width)
you should write
dim g as graphics
g= Me.CreateGraphi cs
cInt(g.Measures tring("Text", mFont).Width)
g.dispose

Where do you want to measure the string? On a form, a control, an image,
the printer, ...?

Hello,
"Marc" <Marc.VanSchand evijl@_nospam_. c-luma.com> schrieb: Yes, but how do I do that?
There are different ways to pass something to a class instance.
One way is to create a "public" property in the class and set this property
before calling the method:
\\\
Public Class Foo
Private m_MyGraphics As Graphics
Public Property MyGraphics() As Graphics
Get
Return m_MyGraphics
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As Graphics)
m_MyGraphics = Value
End Set
End Property This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

I'm trying to create a function that will pad a string with spaces so
that the resulting string is a specific width (in this case 50points).
As expected, the following code when passed an empty string will add
a space and I see the width increase. All subsequent times through
the loop, the width does not increase though the spaces are being
added to "value"... Please help!

Hi,
I made a procedure which receives a Graphics parameter, and with that Graphics parameter, performs various things. The area of confusion here is that when I pass the procedure a Graphics object created by a Panel, and use the MeasureString() method, I get a different width than when I pass up the procedure a Graphics object created by a PrintDocument.
The procedure is exactly the same, independent of which object called it, so why...

Dear Group,
I have a question about the result from ‘graphics.MeasureString' when
using a mono-spaced font. Firstly I assume that Courier New font is
mono-spaced, ie each character takes up the same space when drawn on
the screen.
I am working on a program that requires displaying data in fixed width
font. I assumed that with ‘graphics.MeasureString' I could calculate
the width of the string when drawn in a specified font.

Hi all,
I can't determine why I keep
getting "NotSupportedException" when g.MeasureString() is
called in the following code (.NET CE). I have spent
several hours but I cant seem to find the solution. I
would really appreciate it if someone could look at the
code below.

I have to measure the length of a string in a Label,
to set the adequate Label width
(because not all browsers support the auto-size Label property).
I decide to use the 'MeasureString' method.
It works on a Win Form,
but it doesn't work on a Web Form.

Hello NG,
I am trying to adjust the column width of a DataGridView to the Text in its

To do this I am using the Graphics.MeasureString method. Unfortunatly I
alway get a too short string width.
What is it I am doing wrong?
