Is there a cross-platform method of determining how long a
StaticText control should be given the text inside?
Well, I haven't found a way to get a statictext lengthened
properly, but I have found another way to crash the debug
application (and the standalone, for that matter)
New Project
On the window, put an EditField and a PushButton
In PushButton1.Action, insert this code:
Dim g As New Graphics
EditField1.DrawInto g, 0, 0
EditField1.Width = g.Width
Run it, type in some text, press the button, and poof!!! Your
debug application crashes. This works for RB 2005r4 for OSX
compiling for all platforms.
What would you expect it to do? A Graphics instance simply draws to
something. By creating a new Graphics, you're drawing to nothing.
There shouldn't be a way to create a Graphics instance by itself.
The proper thing to do is to create a temporary picture, or get a
Graphics instance from the Window, Canvas, or existing picture.
HTH,
Jon
