I make use of CDC for the tooltip display rectangle, CDC* pDC = GetDC(); CRect rect(0, 0, 0, 0); CString sComment = "this is a comment bigggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg comment 2 2 2"; pDC->DrawText(sComment, &rect, DT_CALCRECT | DT_LEFT | DT_WORDBREAK | DT_NOPREFIX | DT_TOP); int iheight = rect.Height(); // It wont return the correct rectangle height //Output is this is a comment biggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg Can anyone tell me what the issue is. Thank you, ~ Vikram

    If you don't like the clipped text, then why didn't you specify the DT_NOCLIP formt? :)

      Interestingly this is an exact duplicate of this question[^], even though the ids are different. I cannot believe that two different CP members randomly created exactly the same issue in the last few days. Are you (or the other person) perhaps a sock puppet?

          I suppose you got the wrong height because you've passed an empty rectangle to the function. :)

            or the user simply changed his name ?

            Watched code never compiles.

              Well, a simple view of both user entries shows this not to be the case.
