public interface ITextDrawSupport
extends Serializable

Provides access to members that control how text strings are drawn.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Method Summary

Object	getDrawPoints(int hDC, ITransformation pTransform, IGeometry pGeometry) Gets an array of WKSPoints which represent the position at which each line of text is drawn; pGeometry must be a point.
void	getDrawText(String origText, String[] pParsedText, Object[] pPositions) Get text the way it will be drawn.

Method Detail

getDrawText

void getDrawText(String origText,
                 String[] pParsedText,
                 Object[] pPositions)
                 throws IOException,
                        AutomationException

Get text the way it will be drawn. Optionally gives the positions of drawn characters in the original string of characters.
