I have a status panel that is predefined size, but the string I display in
it can vary in size.
How do I check the physical length of my string against the width of the
status panel so I can modify my text to fit the panel

TIA

Click to expand...

'Graphics.MeasureString' will give you the size of the string.
'Graphics.DrawString' will allow you to soecify a layout rectangle in an
overloaded version.
