StringFormat.GetTabStops(Single) Method

Definition

Gets the tab stops for this StringFormat object.

public:
 cli::array <float> ^ GetTabStops([Runtime::InteropServices::Out] float % firstTabOffset);
public float[] GetTabStops (out float firstTabOffset);
member this.GetTabStops : single -> single[]
Public Function GetTabStops (ByRef firstTabOffset As Single) As Single()

Parameters

firstTabOffset
Single

The number of spaces between the beginning of a text line and the first tab stop.

Returns

Single[]

An array of distances (in number of spaces) between tab stops.

Examples

The following 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:

  • Sets the tab stops of the StringFormat.

  • Draws the string and the layout rectangle. Note that the string contains tabs. The tab settings of the StringFormat specify the offsets of the tabbed text.

  • Gets the tab stops and uses or inspects the values.

public:
   void GetSetTabStopsExample1( PaintEventArgs^ e )
   {
      Graphics^ g = e->Graphics;

      // Tools used for drawing, painting.
      Pen^ redPen = gcnew Pen( Color::FromArgb( 255, 255, 0, 0 ) );
      SolidBrush^ blueBrush = gcnew SolidBrush( Color::FromArgb( 255, 0, 0, 255 ) );

      // Layout and format for text.
      System::Drawing::Font^ myFont = gcnew System::Drawing::Font( "Times New Roman",12 );
      StringFormat^ myStringFormat = gcnew StringFormat;

      array<Single>^tabStops = {150.0f,100.0f,100.0f};

      // Text with tabbed columns.
      String^ myString = "Name\tTab 1\tTab 2\tTab 3\nGeorge Brown\tOne\tTwo\tThree";

      // Set the tab stops, paint the text specified by myString, and draw the
      // rectangle that encloses the text.
