    Drawing text and emotion images

    Hi,

    I would like to draw a smiley within a text block like this

    "Hello, how are you .
    See you soon."

    What is the best way to do this? I need DrawText flags to WORDBREAK etc.

    Thanks in advance.

    Create a custom control derived from CWnd, implement the OnPaint() message handler and draw in this control what you want: texts, pictures and so on...

    Yes, but then I'll have to do all logic by myself (WORDBREAK flags, parsing \r\n etc). I was looking for an easier way.

    Well, someone must do such a work in any case!
    If you don't want to do it youself - try to find something similar in the article sections of CG or/and www.codeproject.com

    Thanks Victor, I've already been looking there so I guess I have to start digging , a bit annoying for such a simple task.
