Re: Drawing an image at the end of a string

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

By 'somekind of container', I meant if there's a control (such as a
label) that would take care of the drawing/placement for me I'd go that
route.

Now the measurestring will tell me the height/width of the entire
string, but will it tell me the width of the last line (since the
picture will be going at the end of the last character which could be
anywhere on the last line).

As I said, you need to calculate each character if not fixed length
character set in
order to calculate a whole string.

It looks like I can use solution #1 from here, but i'm not sure if its
really optimal


I'm using .net 1.1 btw, but I'll look into overrividing the usercontrol
(if it exists in 1.1)

There was never a 1.1 version of CF. 2.0 and onwards is the only version
that supports the
UserControl class. If using 1.0 (VS 2003) then you will need to inherit from
Control and handle complete painting
yourself.

Simon.
