How can I draw a long word on a form with word breaking using TextRenderer DrawText() in vb.net? I thought it's a simple question and I tried all TextFormatFlags combinations but I can't find nothing solution. Can anyone help? Here is a sample:
sText = "C:\Users\abiga\OneDrive\Works\AdreNDSzinkron\bin\Debug\AdreService.exe"
TextRenderer.DrawText(e.Graphics, sText, Font, New Rectangle(0, 0, Me.Width, Me.Height),
Me.Color,TextFormatFlags.<what is the correct flag?>)
I need this (nothing clipped):
C:\Users\abiga\OneDrive\Works\Adr
eNDSzinkron\bin\Debug\AdreService
.exe
Wrong solutions:
C:\Users\abiga\OneDrive\Works\Adr
C:\Users\abiga\OneDrive\Works\...
C:\Users\ab...bug\AdreService.exe
Thank you for your help!
First try TextFormatFlags.WordBreak or TextFormatFlags.TextBoxControl
as your flags.
The docs say:
WordBreak: Breaks the text at the end of a word
TextBoxControl: Specifies the text should be formatted for display on a TextBox control
Combining these flags should give the expected result.
If that doesnt work then try using Graphics.DrawString
instead:
e.Graphics.DrawString(sText, Font, Me.Color, New RectangleF(0, 0, Me.Width, Me.Height))
