Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the DrawText method. To run this example, paste the code into a Windows Form and call RenderText1 from the form's Paint event handler, passing e as PaintEventArgs.

private void RenderText1(PaintEventArgs e)
{
    TextRenderer.DrawText(e.Graphics, "Regular Text", this.Font, 
        new Point(10, 10), SystemColors.ControlText);
}

Private Sub RenderText1(ByVal e As PaintEventArgs)
    TextRenderer.DrawText(e.Graphics, "Regular Text", _
        Me.Font, New Point(10, 10), SystemColors.ControlText)

End Sub

Remarks

The TextRenderer class provides a set of static methods that can be used for measuring and drawing text on a Windows Form control.

You can manipulate how the text is drawn by using one of the DrawText overloads that takes a TextFormatFlags parameter. For example, the default behavior of the TextRenderer is to add padding to the bounding rectangle of the drawn text to accommodate overhanging glyphs. If you need to draw a line of text without these extra spaces you should use the versions of DrawText and MeasureText that take a Size and TextFormatFlags parameter. For an example, see MeasureText(IDeviceContext, String, Font, Size, TextFormatFlags).

Note

The DrawText methods of TextRenderer are not supported for printing. You should always use the DrawString methods of the Graphics class.
