Hi, I need to draw several lines of text one above the other. The ability to draw a single multiline text with \n is not what I'm looking for. To do this accurately i'm working in pixels, using sc.StudyRegionBottomCoordinate and sc.StudyRegionTopCoordinate, then I convert to a price value using sc.YPixelCoordinateToGraphValue() so that I can set Tool.BeginValue to the appropriate value. This is ok but I need to control the vertical distance between two lines, so I need the information of the height in pixels of a line of text. Currently I'm using a constant (set to 22 with the help of a print screen), but of course this is a temporary solution that works only on my computer and with my current FontSize settings. How to retrieve the current font height or text line height in pixels ? I didn't find anything about that in the documentation nor in the support board. Thank you |
