RTC 2013 Client Add-in Label Control

rkarnosh

I am attempting to create a Client ControlAddin that will display a Page field as a label with different Fonts. I would like more options than the current Style Property gives me.

I have created the add-in, but the sizing of it does not seem to work. When I apply the ApplySize function to the control, it errors with no information.

When I comment out the ApplySize function, the control load into the client, but size and display are very strange.

Anyone ever attempt this? What am I missing on the Sizing of my control

this.ApplySize(new DisplaySize(101, 600, 1000), new DisplaySize(10, 20, 200));
}

protected override Control CreateControl()
{
Label myFontLabel = new Label();
myFontLabel.Font = new Font("Tahoma", 12, FontStyle.Bold);
myFontLabel.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
myFontLabel.BackColor = Color.White;
myFontLabel.DoubleClick += myFontLabel_DoubleClick;
return myFontLabel;
}

{
int index = 1;
string data = "Raised A Double Click Event";
this.RaiseControlAddInEvent(index, data);

Hi there

I used ApplySize like this and it seems to work:

public class MyAddIn: WinFormsControlAddInBase, IObjectControlAddInDefinition 
{
        protected override Control CreateControl()
        {                        
            AddInPanel = new Panel();                         
           <... code removed ...> 
            this.ApplySize(new DisplaySize(101, 600, 1000), new DisplaySize(10, 20, 200));
            return AddInPanel;
        }
}
