Re: Question about manipulating Annotation Objects

[User (Legacy)]

ok....sorry about this, but I am still confused...

I am creating a new CFontHolder, and changing some of its attributes. 

I then add its IFontDisp to the label and tell the label to print at the 

origin of my graph.  But nothing is printing on my screen.  I know I have to 

be missing something, I just can't figure it out. 

Here is the code that i am using: 

CFontHolder *font_holder; 

 font_holder = new CFontHolder(NULL); 

 font_holder->InitializeFont(NULL); 

 size.Hi = 12; 

 size.Lo = 0; 

 label = m_pAnnList->Add((short)OBJECT_TYPE_TEXT); 

 font_holder->m_pFont->put_Size(size); 

 hr = label->putref_Font(font_holder->GetFontDispatch()); 

 label->BkColor = RGB(255,0,0); 

 label->Text = "My Label"; 

 label->Top = 0; 

 label->Left = 0; 

 label->Width = 500; 

 label->Height = 100; 

Thanks, 

Lisa 

 label->Attach(ATTACH_NONE, NULL); 

 label->Refresh(FALSE);
