Text Area

Hi,
I am using the TextArea in a manner such as below:

var headingText = new TextArea(HeadingText, marginX, marginY, page.Dimensions.Width - marginX, 10, HeadingTextFont, HeadingTextPoints, HeadingTextColor);

In the parameter list, I have a “10” value hard coded in for the “float height” parameter. The problem is, I need the value to be dynamic based on the height that is produced by the text itself, not a predefined height.  Because if the text is very short, it creates an unwanted gap.   How can I do this ?

Thanks

Jim

Hello,

Yes, you can set the required height to the TextArea to fit the dynamic text without any problem using DynamicPDF Generator. You will need to get the required height to the fit the text using the GetRequiredHeight method and  then set it for the TextArea’s height.

           TextArea headingText = new TextArea(HeadingText, marginX, marginY, page.Dimensions.Width - marginX, 10, HeadingTextFont, HeadingTextPoints, HeadingTextColor);
            //setting required height to fit the dynamic text.
            headingText.Height = headingText.GetRequiredHeight();
