Font size in relation to number of pixels in height???(*Resolved*)

[gdebacker]

I think that depends on whether it is a fixed width font or not. In a non-fixed-width font the letter 'A' will be wider than the letter 'i'.

I looked into converting points to pixels once a long time ago and found it was not an easy thing to do. Maybe someone else had a differnt experience. You can, however, get the width of a letter or string using the TextWidth method of a Form or PictureBox.

Private Sub Form_Load()
    Form1.ScaleMode = vbPixels
    Form1.FontName = "Ariel"
    Form1.FontSize = "10"
    Debug.Print "Width in pixels of i = " & Form1.TextWidth("i")
    Debug.Print "Width in pixels of A = " & Form1.TextWidth("A")
End Sub
