Darc · Sep 18, 2003

is there a .NET equivalent of TextWidth from VB 6.0? I need to center some text...

Vb6 TextWidth? What do you mean?

Darc · Sep 18, 2003

you could get the width of text in pixels, making it possible to center text.

You can use the a label and set the alignment to center otherwise you can use the MeasureString function
