Getting the width of a string?

[omascia]

More or less along the lines of the old PXC_GetStringWidth() ?

Hello omascia,

The equivalent is the CalcTextSize method:

Though there is much more versatile method:

Don't forget to initialize the content creator:

Code: Select all

PDFXEdit.IPXC_ContentCreator CC = pdfCtl.Doc.CoreDoc.CreateContentCreator();
CC.SetFontSize(14.0f);
PDFXEdit.IColor color = auxInst.CreateColor(PDFXEdit.ColorType.ColorType_RGB);
color.SetRGB(0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
CC.SetFillColorRGB(color.RGB);
color.SetRGB(1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
CC.SetStrokeColorRGB(color.RGB);
PDFXEdit.IPXC_Font fnt = pdfCtl.Doc.CoreDoc.CreateNewFont2("ArialMT");
CC.SetFont(fnt);

Cheers,
Alex
