Automatic Font Resize

rbuser

Hey Guys!

Is there anyway to have a report (through RAP if necessary) to automatically
pick the appropriate size for the font so that all the text will fit in a
given component?

Example:

I have a DBEdit box that is 3 inches wide. The autosize property is turned
to false. If the text that is to be displayed is to long for the box at a
size 12 font, how do you change the font size to 10 or 8, etc. during print?

Thanks,

Here is a demo to download which does this with a pipeline on a form, but
this same approach will work with RAP and DADE:
