TextHeight (Function)

In french: TexteHauteur

Calculates the height (in pixels) of the text displayed in an edit control, in a Static control or in a Combo Box control. This allows you to predict the height occupied by the text in order to enlarge the control if necessary.

Example

Res is real = TextHeight(EDT_Edit1, "Hello")

Syntax

<Result> = TextHeight(<Control name> , <Text> [, <Option>])

<Result>: Real

Height of the text (in pixels) in the specified control (according to the control style).
Remark: The height will be null for the unsupported control. Only the edit controls and the Static controls are supported.

<Control name>: Character string

Name of the Edit control, Static control or Combo Box control.
Name of the edit control or Static control.

<Text>: Character string

Text whose height must be calculated.

<Option>: Optional integer constant

Configures the mode for calculating the height:
tWithMargin Allows you to take into account the margins set for the control (left indentation, right indentation, etc.).
This constant can be combined with the tMultiline constant.
This constant is not available.
tDefault
(default value) Height of the text in the control.
tMultiline Height of the text while taking the CR characters into account (automatic or forced by a "Carriage Return").
tSingleLine Height of a line while only taking the "Carriage Returns" into account.
