TreeNode Label

[Juan Romero]

Hey guys,

I have been playing with different fonts for the nodes of a treeview.
When I change the font to bigger sizes, the text area of the treenode
(label) no
longer displays all the text. I only see what fits there. How do I resize
this area? I mean, one would expect the label box to resize itself.....

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

I am not able to repro that, even with very long texts.

Hi Herfried,

This has been more here, it is not the long text but the font seems to get
to high and the top is cut off, do you know it?

Here is the code to reproduce it:

Dim oNode As New TreeNode
oNode.ImageIndex = 3
oNode.SelectedImageIndex = 3
oNode.NodeFont = New Font("Tahoma", 8, FontStyle.Bold)
oNode.Text = "Control Panel"
tvMenus.Nodes.Add(oNode)
tvMenus.Refresh()

Thank you for your help. I appreciate it.

oNode.NodeFont = New Font("Tahoma", 8, FontStyle.Bold)
oNode.Text = "Control Panel"
tvMenus.Nodes.Add(oNode)
tvMenus.Refresh()

Set the TreeView's 'Font' property to the bold font too.

Setting the control's 'Font' property to a large font will fix this
problem, I think.

You mossed the "))" or did my newsreader eat it?

 

[Juan Romero]

Yes, it did fix it.
Of course this is more of a workaround than a solution. It seems like you
have to set the font to the largest and thickest font you will use on your
treeview, and then create all the nodes, making a new font for them, except
for the one that has the font in question.

Thanks a lot guys.
