Hello people,

i am trying to draw with drawtext in a richedit control 'hello world' it works but the text is very small.
I don't know how to scale this correctly.

Code: [Select]

#define UNICODE

it is possible to inherit the scaling, font, etc. from the RichEdit control so that the text being drawn looks the same as the typed version?

[Paul Squires]

I was hoping to be able to get the current font of the control and select it into the DC, but that doesn't seem to work. Maybe because it is a RichEdit control? Maybe because RichEdit controls can have multiple fonts, it does not expose access to the WM_GETFONT message?

Code: [Select]

     Case WM_PAINT
            DIM hDC AS HDC                                                                                           
            Dim As RECT  rect
                                                                                                                 
             DefSubclassProc(hwnd, uMsg, wParam, lParam)         
             
             hdc  = GetDC(hWnd)                                                                                                               
             
             dim as long state = SaveDC(hdc)
             
             dim as HFONT hFont1 = GetWindowFont(hWnd)
             
             SelectObject( hdc, hFont1 )
             
             SetBkMode(hdc,TRANSPARENT)
             SendMessageW( hWnd, EM_GETRECT, 0, cast(LPARAM, @rect) )
             
             DrawTextW(hdc,"Hello World",-1,@rect,0)
             
             RestoreDC(hdc, state)
             DeleteDC(hdc)                       

I guess you could create a scaled CWindow font in WM_PAINT, select it into the DC, do your painting, restore the DC, and finally delete the created font. I haven't tried that but it should definitely work.

I have looked at some examples in C-code, what i wanted to do is very complex. and examples are not very comprehensive.
This is still too difficult for me.

Thanks for the effort.
