I am creating a custom tooltip label. My problem is auto resizing it (particularly height).The thing to note here is that the label i am using is an infragistics label, and i can have different fonts and formatting inside the label which means i cant just measure the text height based on the font because the label will contain multiple fonts.The only thing i can come up with is to make the label the height of the screen, and then perform a loop which scans the colour of each row of pixels starting from the bottom, decreasing the label height each time until it finds some pixels which <> the backcolor of the label (which would indicate that there is some text there).This is the only reliable way i can think of to make this happen, but im having trouble finding out just how exactly to get the color of the pixel at the given point.I did find one method of getting the pixel color, but the problem was that it when i requested it in the form_load it didnt return the right color because the screen wasn't painted (i guess).

View 2 RepliesI'm having a strange problem and can't seem to find a solution to it.I ahve a code in a backgroundworker and at certain points a label's color should change.[code]It just stays the same color as it was when the form opened.The form opens before the code is ran.However, if I place a button in the form with the code and add this as code for the button:[code]Why does it work with the button, but not with the backgroundworker?
