How to reposition the text in a button control

[Buddy]

Hello,

Can someone point me to some example code that shows how
to paint the text in a button control. I basically want to
reposition the text so it does not wrap.

Hi Buddy,

Depends on how you are creating your button. I presume you are using windows
forms. If so, then try TextAlignment properties, ImageAlignment, and Font
properties. If you are using Dynamic controls then it's pretty much the same
thing, except you will have to go in your code and manually adjest the code.
Sorry I have no example for you, but you could always try
http://www.gotdotnet.com/ which seems like a pretty cool site for samples.

Hi Buddy,

MikeY provided a simply way of controling the text alignment of button
control.
But I think the funtion provided by Button's text alignment property is too
limited.
If you want to get more control over the button, you can override the
wndproc of
the form then subclass the button's wndproc, then you can control the
button text at your pleasure.

Hope it helps.
