Just imagine a simple and small text static control in Font Size 9.
At the beginning it has the caption "SmallText". It displays nicely.
Then, when the caption changes to "AVeryLongTextThatUsualyDoesntFit" I don't want this ending with 'ellipse' like "..."
Instead I wan't to automatically change the font size till it fits in the initial size of the control.
Any ideas how to do this?
TIA

I can answer this by myself:
The function is called TextWidth(): http://doc.windev.com/en-US/…
Example of an edit control:
In the 'whenever modified' part of the code, put something like this:
nPix is int = TextWidth(MySelf, MySelf..Value)
IF nPix > MySelf..X THEN
MySelf..FontSize = MySelf..FontSize - 1
END
This example does only work in one direction, though. It can only shrink the font size.
