SUBROUTINE GETTEXTSIZE@( HWND, STR, WIDTH, DEPTH ) |
Description |
This routine returns the pixel WIDTH and DEPTH of a given character string STR when drawn on the control that has the handle HWND. Use this for example with the handle for %`cw or with %lc (Handle of Last Control). Trailing spaces will be included so either use a substring notation or terminate the significant characters by CHAR(0). If the routine fails then the width and height are returned as zero. |
