RadioButtonList ????

[BG]

Hey All,

I have a vertical RadioButtonList w/ textalign=right and borders enabled. I
want to resize the borders based on the pixel length of the item text. I am
trying to use the graphics.measurestring class but can't seem to get the
coding right. Any examples would be most appreciated.

Thanks

BG,

When you will help to get the coding right without showing any code.

Can you give us an idea how that we can do that for you?

'MeasureString' is part of GDI+ and is typically used in Windows Forms
applications. I doubt that it will work in Web Forms applications, because
they use a completely different rendering model. Users can change a page's
font size using the browser's menu easily.

Herfried,

I use it in that webside clock sample of my

So maybe we found together the answer for the OP

I assume the OP doesn't use GDI+ to draw text, and thus 'MeasureString'
doesn't solve his problem. But yes, you can use 'MeasureString' if you draw
the text using 'DrawString'.

Thanks Herfried,

I had a hunch that this was the case.
