Hi,

I'm creating a static text control who's text is known only at runtime.

I tried to use GetBestControlRect to figure the width of the control, but it's not working.

I create the static text control with a certain string and an initial rect, Set the ID, set the size tag, and then call GetBestControlID with a zeroed rect. I always get the current control's rect.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

Thanx

Yaron Tadmor
