Examples

The following code example is designed for use with Windows Forms, and it requires PaintEventArgs e, which is a parameter of the Paint event handler. The code performs the following actions:

  • Creates a FontFamily.

  • Gets the line spacing for the font family.

  • Draws the value of the line spacing to the screen as text.

public:
   void GetLineSpacing_Example( PaintEventArgs^ e )
   {
      // Create a FontFamily object.
      FontFamily^ myFontFamily = gcnew FontFamily( "Arial" );

      // Get the line spacing for myFontFamily.
      int lineSpacing = myFontFamily->GetLineSpacing( FontStyle::Regular );

      // Draw the value of lineSpacing to the screen as a string.
      e->Graphics->DrawString( String::Format( "lineSpacing = {0}", lineSpacing ),
            gcnew System::Drawing::Font( myFontFamily,16 ), Brushes::Black, PointF(0,0) );
   }
public void GetLineSpacing_Example(PaintEventArgs e)
{
    // Create a FontFamily object.
    FontFamily myFontFamily = new FontFamily("Arial");
             
    // Get the line spacing for myFontFamily.
    int lineSpacing = myFontFamily.GetLineSpacing(FontStyle.Regular);
             
    // Draw the value of lineSpacing to the screen as a string.
    e.Graphics.DrawString(
        "lineSpacing = " + lineSpacing.ToString(),
        new Font(myFontFamily, 16),
        Brushes.Black,
        new PointF(0, 0));
}
Public Sub GetLineSpacing_Example(ByVal e As PaintEventArgs)

    ' Create a FontFamily object.
    Dim myFontFamily As New FontFamily("Arial")

    ' Get the line spacing for myFontFamily.
    Dim lineSpacing As Integer = _
    myFontFamily.GetLineSpacing(FontStyle.Regular)

    ' Draw the value of lineSpacing to the screen as a string.
    e.Graphics.DrawString("lineSpacing = " & lineSpacing.ToString(), _
    New Font(myFontFamily, 16), Brushes.Black, New PointF(0, 0))
End Sub
