RadLabelElement RadRotator center

[Developer Developer]

I'm trying to center, both vertically and horizontally, a RadLabelElement within a RadRotator.  Does anyone know how this can be done?  Below is my initial try.

RadLabelElement label = new RadLabelElement();

label.Text = slide.Text;

label.AutoSize = true;

label.AutoSizeMode = RadAutoSizeMode.FitToAvailableSize;

label.Alignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter;

label.StringAlignment = StringAlignment.Center;

radRotator1.Items.Add(label);

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

Hello,

Thank you for writing.

In order to create and position a RadLabelElement in the Middle of RadRotator, please consider the following code snippet:

public Form1()
{
    new RadControlSpyForm().Show();
    InitializeComponent();
    PopulateRotator();

    label.Text = "label";
    label.StretchHorizontally = false;
    label.StretchVertically = false;
    CalcLabelLocation();
    radRotator1.RotatorElement.Children.Add(label);

    radRotator1.SizeChanged += new EventHandler(radRotator1_SizeChanged);

    radRotator1.Start();
}

void radRotator1_SizeChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    CalcLabelLocation();
}

private void CalcLabelLocation()
{
   int x = radRotator1.Location.X + radRotator1.Width / 2 - label.Size.Width /2;
   int y = radRotator1.Location.Y + radRotator1.Height / 2 - label.Size.Height/2;
   label.Location= new Point(x, y);
}

I hope you find this information helpful. If there is anything else I can assist you with, do not hesitate to contact me.

Hello Stefan,

I was not able to figure out what Label is, can you attach us a complete code that does the above?

Thanks.

Hello Mahmoud,

"label" is RadLabelElement. Attached to this post you can find the requested sample. I hope it helps.
