VS 2005 Use & In String Won't Convert

Jan 27, 2011

For a labels text I need to use the & symbol in the text, so I did this:

Const symbol As Char = Chr(38) and I am using like this:

Me.Label1.Text = "Welcome to A " & symbol & " R Storage Management Systems" I am looking for this because it is how the business name is spelled: A & R Storage

any other Char symbol I use in place of 38 will display the Char, but not the ampersand, it leaves a blank spot. Any advice. And yes I know the & is used to concatenate string variables, but I should be able to use it as a Char.

I am trying to convert a string to double and it is giving error. Bye the way it is not giving error on my PC but it gives on some pc's where other clients are using. String is retrieved from xml data.

C# - Convert The Font Size In Inch?

Mar 23, 2012

I need to convert between Drawing.Font.Size (float, ?) and WPF FontSize (double, WPF pixels).Finally, I decided to store in the database the fontSize in inch...How can I convert the GDI FontSize to inch and the WPF FontSize to inch?

sizeInInch = wpfFontSize / 96
sizeInInch = gdiFontSize / ?

Can I use something DPI independent? Maybe System.Windows.FontSizeConverter?I need to convert to something, that will allow me to switch multiple time between WPF and GDI without changing the "real value". Each division and following multiplication will accumulate errors...

FontSizeConverter does a ConvertTo, but I don't understand to use it:

myUniversalFontSize = (double)(myFontSizeConverter.ConvertFrom(
gdiFont.SizeInPoints.ToString() + "pt"))

will transform my gdiFont size in ...? WPF Pixels?How now should I convert back that value to GDI?

gdiFont.SizeInPoints = myUniversalFontSize / 96 * 72???

Can I use in the second example the myFontSizeConverter too?

VS 2005 - Font Change Within Label

Mar 24, 2009

A co-worker is having a problem trying to display the time in a label. He wants the AM/PM to display smaller than the time numerals. Neither of us knows of any way to change the font size within the same label, so we tried using two labels. That works for the different sizes, but we can't seem to get the appearance to 'flow' correctly without overlapping the labels, and then part of the text gets cut off.

We tried setting the padding to 0, but that still leaves a noticeable gap. We tried setting the background of the front label to transparent, but that didn't work for some reason. The left label (time) in right-aligned and the right label (AM/PM) is left-aligned, and that's as close as we can come.

Any way to either change the font size within one label or to overlap two labels without one obscuring part of the other? Or, maybe, a way to create a label so the text actually starts at the very edge of the label? (I'm doubting this last-I suspect the problem is that each character is defined, by the font, as occupying a 'block' of space.)

VS 2005 Label Font Changes On Form Load?

Mar 6, 2010

I have set my forms font as "Segoe UI, 14.25pt" and have just placed an single label on the form.

Upon placing the label by default it gets the forms font i.e Segoe UI, 14.25pt

i have placed the following code on the labels textchange event

Private Sub Label1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Label1.TextChanged
Dim f As New Font(Me.Label1.Font, FontStyle.Italic)
Label1.Font = f
MessageBox.Show(Label1.Font.Name)
End Sub

Now when the form is loaded , i get a message box showing the labels font name as "Microsoft Sans Serif"

The labels font size also changes to 8 but it is italic.

Why is this happening? And why does the textchange event occur on the form load?

Converting A String To System.Drawing.Font

May 8, 2010

I'm saving the font of a label to a text file, and when I open the text file with my program, I want the label to have the same font that is listed within the text file. Now, the only problem I am having is that when I try to write the code for opening the text file, I can't set the font property of the label to a string. Label1.Font=[Font: Name=Microsoft Sans Serif, Size=9.75, Units=3, GdiCharSet=0, GdiVerticalFont= False]Here is what the code to open the text file and set the font of the label looks like:[code]The problem for the code happens at line 6. The error is: "Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to 'System.Drawing.Font'"ing each part of the font in the text file(i.e. Writing Font.Name and Font.Size properties in separate lines and then setting the label's font properties to each line accordingly), but I still get hit with the same error.
