Resize Box to fit text

This is a query to deal with the issue of resizing the box when the text input format differs.

There is a method resizeToFitText on a Box. It also takes in as parameter FitSize.KeepRatio/KeepHeight/KeepWidth


Can’t there be a resizeToFitText method that resizes to whatever size is appropriate for the input string? For example if the input is



Askdkjaslkdjasda

Sdasd

Asdakjsdha sjdhjas dkhasd kjasd

Asdajks

Sa



The rows and columns resize to fit this entire set of lines.

Is it also possible to get information about the size of the input text which will allow to decide the size of the box?

Please let me know how this can be done.

Try setting a very large initial box size and calling

box.ResizeToFitText(KeepWidth);
box.ResizeToFitText(KeepHeight);

The first call should make the box just big enough to fit the text lines, and the second - wide enough to fit them without wrapping.

I should have an idea of the width of the text input before i resize the box. Can we find the width of the text entered?

You could use the FlowChart.MeasureString method to find the text width.
