Question:<\/span><\/p>\n

How can I keep an XControl<\/b>‘s Text <\/b>size proportional to a Figure <\/b>size?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0\"\"<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Solution:<\/span><\/p>\n

To do so, you must change the Size <\/i>hidden subproperty of the Text’s TextFont <\/i>property. This can’t be accessed via AppBrowser, just via scripts:
\n
\n‘this line changes text size<\/span>
\nScreen.Item(“Text1”).TextFont.Size = 36<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

To set up this property, you have to create a formula that sets the proportion via scripts. For example:
\n
\n‘Width of the reference-object<\/span>
\nw = Item(“Figure1”).Width
\n
‘Formula<\/span>
\nNewSize = w \/ 75<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

‘Font’s value<\/span>
\nItem(“Text1”).TextFont.Size = int(NewSize)<\/p>\n

In this example, an object whose width is equal to 1000 has a text whose size equal to 13.<\/p>\n

You can also create a property in the XControl and add it to the Formula in this script, allowing the user to configure the text’s size:
\n
\n‘Formula<\/span>
\nNewSize = w * TextProportion \/ 75<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Now, when setting up TextProportion <\/i>property to 1.2, the text’s size will be set up to 16 (taking into consideration that the width is equal to 1000).<\/p>\n


\nWhere can I execute this script?<\/span><\/p>\n

To execute the script, you can insert it in the XControl’s CustomConfig <\/i>event. Set up XControl’s CustomConfigText <\/i>property as desired. For example:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

As the result, we have a Text that is proportional to the instance’s size:<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0\"\"<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

NOTES: <\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The text displayed in E3Studio <\/b>is just an example. To keep this size when executing the application, you must insert the same script in the XControl’s OnStartRunning <\/i>event.<\/li>\n
  2. Attached to this article is a demo application.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n
