# How to: Align Drawn Text
|
||||
When you perform custom drawing, you may often want to center drawn text on a form or control. You can easily align text drawn with the <xref:System.Drawing.Graphics.DrawString%2A> or <xref:System.Windows.Forms.TextRenderer.DrawText%2A> methods by creating the correct formatting object and setting the appropriate format flags.
|
||||
|
||||
### To draw centered text with GDI+ (DrawString)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Use a <xref:System.Drawing.StringFormat> with the appropriate <xref:System.Drawing.Graphics.DrawString%2A> method to specify centered text.
|
||||
|
||||
[!code-csharp[System.Drawing.AlignDrawnText#10](~/samples/snippets/csharp/VS_Snippets_Winforms/System.Drawing.AlignDrawnText/CS/Form1.cs#10)]
|
||||
[!code-vb[System.Drawing.AlignDrawnText#10](~/samples/snippets/visualbasic/VS_Snippets_Winforms/System.Drawing.AlignDrawnText/VB/Form1.vb#10)]
|
||||
|
||||
### To draw centered text with GDI (DrawText)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.TextFormatFlags> enumeration for wrapping as well as vertically and horizontally centering text with the appropriate <xref:System.Windows.Forms.TextRenderer.DrawText%2A> method.
|
||||
|
||||
[!code-csharp[System.Drawing.AlignDrawnText#20](~/samples/snippets/csharp/VS_Snippets_Winforms/System.Drawing.AlignDrawnText/CS/Form1.cs#20)]
|
||||
[!code-vb[System.Drawing.AlignDrawnText#20](~/samples/snippets/visualbasic/VS_Snippets_Winforms/System.Drawing.AlignDrawnText/VB/Form1.vb#20)]
|
||||
|
||||
## Compiling the Code
|
||||
The preceding code examples are designed for use with Windows Forms, and they require <xref:System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs> `e`, which is a parameter of <xref:System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventHandler>.
