the location of label text in pixels as Margin, Padding, and TextAlign properties change

You won't get the location of the text, you can take location of the label instead. Check label.Bounds which gives you a Rectangle instance.

Hi Harvey My post is not pointless, I think you didn't understand it as you may be "stupid or something" My problem is that, I'm working in an application in which I manually simulate some control appearance and draw them in a high resolution image to be printed, now when drawing a Label I need to determine the point(X, Y) on which I print the Label text, as Label.TextAlign may vary from MiddleCenter, to BottomLeft, to TopRight, etc. Now, can you - as a "Professional" developer - help me?? I don't think so.. Even if my question is pointless, it's not enough reason for you to insult me Sorry, but you are not a respectable person

Sorry, but I don't understand how could label.Bounds help me to determine the location of text on Lable??

[Alan Balkany]

The bounds (which is type Rectangle) has members for top, bottom, right, and left. (left, top) gives you the location of the label's upper-left corner.

I guess if you want to know where exactly the text is painted within the label, you'll have to get the control's graphics object, determine the text size with its MeasureString methhod, and calculate the position with a lot of if statements according to alignment and things. But that's kind of like reinventing the label.

[Ahmad Safwat]

Hi Frank yes that is exactly what I need and I already calculated the position but it's not accurate, so I was asking if there is an existing method to do

Hey, can anybody help me?
