Public Property CheckAlign As ContentAlignment
Property Value
One of the ContentAlignment values. The default value is MiddleLeft
.
- Attributes
Exceptions
The value assigned is not one of the ContentAlignment enumeration values.
Examples
The following code example displays the values of three properties in a label. The ThreeState property alternates between true
and false
with alternating clicks of the control and the CheckAlign alternates between the MiddleRight
and MiddleLeft
values of ContentAlignment. This example shows how the property values change as the ThreeState property changes and the control is checked. This example requires that a CheckBox, Label and Button have all been instantiated on a form and that the label is large enough to display three lines of text, as well as a reference to the System.Drawing namespace. This code should be called in the Click event handler of the control.
