Public Property EnableStyledText As Boolean

 Property Value

Styled text allows applying various attributes to the characters it contains. Attributes are specified using HTML-like formatting tags embedded in the raw text. Formatting tags are listed and described in the Text Attributes and Formatting section of this help file.

Styled text can be enabled only if PolygonalTextLayout is set to true. If enabled, Text is parsed and analyzed each time it is changed. Parsing determines what formatting tags are used and adds the corresponding attribute records to MindFusion.Diagramming's internal representation of styled text. If the property value is false, the text is not processed in any way and is displayed without formatting.

The following sample code demonstrates how to use styled text:

C#  Copy Code
shapeNode.PolygonalTextLayout = true; shapeNode.EnableStyledText = true; shapeNode.Text = "CH<sub>2</sub>CL<sub>2</sub> " + "\n" +     "<b><color=#0088FF>methylene-chloride</b>";

Visual Basic  Copy Code
shapeNode.PolygonalTextLayout = True shapeNode.EnableStyledText = True shapeNode.Text = "CH<sub>2</sub>CL<sub>2</sub> " + vbNewLine + _     "<b><color=#0088FF>methylene-chloride</b>"
