How do you print bold and underline using drawstring?

[Siv]

Hi,
I want to print using the Graphics.Drawst ring method but instead of using
either bold or underline I want to combine both so the printed text is bold
and underline??

The way I send the drawstring command is as follows:

Somewhere in my declarations I have:
Private ra As System.Drawing. StringFormat

Private fb As New System.Drawing. Font("Courier New", 10,
FontStyle.Bold, GraphicsUnit.Po int)
Private fu As New System.Drawing. Font("Courier New", 10,
FontStyle.Under line, GraphicsUnit.Po int)

and in the printing code I have:

ra = New StringFormat

ra.Alignment = StringAlignment .Far 'Right alignment in a left to
right environment

e.Graphics.Draw String("Some text right aligned with underlining",
fu, Brushes.Black, x, y, ra)

If I want to do the same but also simultaneously have the text underlined
and emboldened, how do I achieve that??

Any examples greatly appreciated.

You can combine styles by using "Or" : FontStyle.Bold Or
FontStyle.Under line.

This is generally mentionned in the doc by "This enumeration has a
FlagsAttribute attribute that allows a bitwise combination of its member
values."

Patrice,
I guessed it had to be something like that, thanks, I'll give that a go.
