| Post subject: | XFont Metrics |
XFont.CellDescent, which I assume maps to XFont.Metrics.Descent, returns a "int". What is that int? Is it in points? twips? inches? When you call XGraphics.DrawString with XPoint and BaseLineLeft, the location passed in the XPoint is where the baseline of the font starts. So if I wanted to create a clip region, I somehow would need to create an XRect such that XRect.Bottom of the clip region is at least the XPoint.Y + XFont.CellDescent. But I have no idea what CellDescent represents, or why it is an Integer when all the other location data uses doubles. Thanks |

I cannot answer the question, but why not call MeasureString to get the clipping region? |
