View 1 RepliesI had a weird series of errors involving e.Graphics.DrawString() when painting a panel.I am using a barcode font [Code 128] with a library that converts text to the proper format for Barcode readers.That's fine, however, when I draw it to the panel, that's where things stop being fine:But, here's where things get funky. When I put it into a TextBox instead of drawing it via Graphics.DrawString(), everything is peachy:In fact, the TextBox one looks much better than the Graphics.DrawString() one! Am I doing something wrong?[code]

[Code]...
but it does not work.... where is my mistake in the above code?
Now I know whats going to happen, I will post a request for code syntax and one of the admins is going to say that I need to post the code I already have. The code I already have is irrelevant to what i wish to do. So, continuing on; I have a micro controller that i wish to send commands to it in HEX data type. Communication is via the serial port RS232. (well technically its through the USB to serial converter)Steps:
1) Sending a "001" tells the micro controller to await instructions as to what to set the duty cycle to
2) The data that follows i.e." 050, 010, 185 " will be added to 400 (by the micro controller) to come up with a duty cycle based on a 10 bit resolution of 0-1024. I am only going to be using the range of 401- ~500.
I can communicate with the micro controller via hyper terminal. Using the Alt + #keys method I can transmit data to the micro controller, and this is what i with to do with vb.net.[code]
I have a label which appears full screen on a projector (VGA 2). In this label I will be sending strings. Some one liner's, some wrapped paragraphs. Some multi-line with carrage returns.

View 10 RepliesWhats the font size real meaning? since when i use Arial font size 10 in the report its gonna take different space than the textbox im using (Both using exactly same font type/size/unit) its kinda if i set 10 milimiters to the font size why would the i and M for example have so diferent size.
i wish it was like in the Notepad where all the letters take the same space. what i need its to give a certain texbox(in the report) with auto grow to have always the same lines of height but its not posible to calculate it from vb b4 being inputed to the report.

I'm writing a couple of custom controls in VB.Net 3.5, in VS2008, and would like to resize the font size based on the height of the control, and vice-versa. Is there any way of converting a font of say 38.25pts into a me.height, or the other way round?
I realise the font width will change dependent on the font used (which isn't an issue for my purposes), but as far as I know, the font height is usually consistent Accessibility/Large font settings won't be an issue with this application.
