CreateText Method

In This Topic

Create and initialize a text item given a string.

Syntax

public virtual GoText CreateText( 
   string s,
   int idx
)

Parameters

s
idx

Return Value

a GoText object that is the new item

Remarks

Note that the width of the text object is not set unless ItemWidth is a positive value.

Example

If you override this method, you may want the definition to do some of the things that the standard definition does:

public virtual GoText CreateText(String s, int idx) {
  GoText t = new GoText();
  t.Selectable = false;
  t.Alignment = GoObject.Middle;
  t.Multiline = true;
  t.BackgroundOpaqueWhenSelected = true;
  t.BackgroundColor = Color.LightBlue;
  t.DragsNode = true;
  t.Text = s;
  t.Wrapping = true;
  if (this.ItemWidth > 0) {
    t.WrappingWidth = this.ItemWidth;
    t.Width = this.ItemWidth;
  }
  return t;
}
