Last letters in label shrink if bold.....

[ThienZ]

if i make a label and set the font into bold, strangely the last letters in the label shrink.... if i make the text longer, only the last letters shrink, the one in the middle not anymore....

 

see pictures :

labelshrink.jpg for .net

 

to compare labelshrink2.jpg in VBA (Excel)

 

any idea...?

There must be a slight variation in the way the label renders fonts in .Net vs VBA. An interesting find, though I never noticed it until you pointed it out. It seems that it bolds in place without regard for the location of letters while the VBA lable keeps a strict pixel distance between letters no matter whether they are bold or not. Interesting and annoying for you, trying to make the best program you can, but certianly not a show stopper.

Appears to be only the last letters though so seems more of a bug than anything else to me.... :confused:
