label runtime width

[shuvo]

I am trying to set width of labels at runtime.

I tried lablel1.width=Unit.Pixel(50);

and

label1.width=Unit.Point(50);

I even tried lable.controlstyle.width, but nothing seems to work for me .at runtime the width of the label seems to get truncated.can anyone tell me how it can be done successfully.

have you tried just

this.label1.width = 50;

Yes i did,nothing worked

are you sure your actually modifing the right label? is there a label on the page with the id "label1"? Or are you creating it from code? If it IS on the page already when you type
"this.label1" does the auto-complete and code hinting box come up with the available properties for a label object? Perhaps your just setting the width of a reference to a label, not an actual label itself.
