Draw text along points

Hello I want to draw a text along an array of Points Any suggestion for a good approach ? Thanks for any help
Do some research on the
GraphicsPathclass. That should give you some ideas. :)Henry Minute Do not read medical books! You could die of a misprint. - Mark Twain Girl: (staring) "Why do you need an icy cucumber?" “I want to report a fraud. The government is lying to us all.”

Thank you Yest it sounds interresting I'm trying to figure out what are the "Byte [] types" in the constructor of a Graphics path

I wouldn't worry too much about that for now. I don't believe it will help to solve your problem. Look at
GraphicsPath.AddStringandGraphicsPath.Warpmethods. [Edit] Also take a look at this[^] article from here on CP. It's in VB but I'm sure that will not be a problem. There are loads of code converter apps on the web, if you are unable to do it yourself. [/Edit]Henry Minute Do not read medical books!

I see ! So finaly GraphicsPath needs a TransformMatrix ! I was expecting that the graphicpath string will automaticaly follow the path defined by the array of point So what makes the worth of the GraphicPath for this purpose ? Maybe it will be more simple to use a Graphics.DrawString directely, cutting the string into small pieces

I've just edited my previous post. Take a look at that, and come back if you still have problems.

Just in case you are still having difficulties, I have found a source in C# here[^]. Jolly good it is too. Hope this helps. :)

Come along now, this is MS we are talking about. Do you really expect that they would do anything to make our lives easier? :-D

It's a pleasure. Your question raised my interest, so I did a bit of rooting around, and got lucky. Although your English is very good, I am guessing that it is not your first language (your location also gives a clue). So FYI you might want to be a little careful about using the phrase:

In colloquial English it actually means the opposite of what I think you meant. At least what I hope you meant. As an example if you know a particularly nasty man, you might say "Now he's a piece of work isn't he?".
