AutoSize of radbutton

[Renato Lopes]

Hi.

I'm using a radbutton with a image. When I try to customize the UI element, if I Change the AutoSize property to False of the Text Layout, so I can use the Location to change the position of the text in the button, the text doesn't show when running my application. If I change the location with the AutoSize True, the text shows, but in the wrong place. Can you give me a solution?

Thanks

Hello Renato,

Thank you for the video.

The text is not visible because Location property is not serialized when changes are made in design-time. You have to set it only by code. Also, it is not necessary to change the AutoSize property. If it is true, the location works like an offset (negative values are allowed) :

this.radButton1.ButtonElement.TextElement.Location = new Point(0, 20);

If you have other questions, do not hesitate to contact me again.

All the best,

Hi. I try that but doesn't work. If I set AutoSize to false, the text doesn't shows even if I set the location by code. With the AutoSize set to True, text is showed ind the whong position!

Hello Renato Lopes,

You can set any Point for a location, so you can set the value you like.
For example you can use the following points - { new Point(10, 5), new Point(5,5), new Point(15, 15) }.

this.radButton1.ButtonElement.TextElement.Location = new Point(0, 20); 

Is there any particular reason for you to change the AutoSize property to false? I would suggest you use the location property to move the text where you want.

I hope this helps.
Please write me back if you have more questions.
