Text Alignment

[hotsaravana]

Hi,

How to align string to Left, Right, Center and Middle? I have done other alignment like middle center,middle left,middle right, top left etc using StringAligment.

Help me to alignment string in Left, Right, Center and Middle.

StringFormat objStringFormat = new StringFormat();
objStringFormat.Alignment = StringAlignment.Center;
objStringFormat.LineAlignment = StringAlignment.Center;

Thank you
Saravana

Where are you trying to align your text? I mean, is it a UserControl you built yourself and want to render the text aligned somewhere on your control? Or is it a RichTextBox ?

StringFormat is used to give DrawString (of the Graphics class) formatting flags.

This will draw a string in the middle of a bitmap:

Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(myBmp);
StringFormat strFmt = new StringFormat();
strFmt.Alignment = StringAlignment.Center;
strFmt.LineAlignment = StringAlignment.Center;

Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(0,0,myBmp.Width,myBmp.height);

g.DrawString("asdf",SystemBrushes.WindowText,someFont,rect,strFmt);

I might have the DrawString parameters wrong, haven't fired up Visual Studio yet
