Determine Label Size based upon amount of text and font size in Winforms/C#

by

How about Graphics.MeasureString, with the overload that accepts a string, the font, and the max width? This returns a SizeF, so you can round round-off the Height.

        using(Graphics g = CreateGraphics()) {
            SizeF size = g.MeasureString(text, lbl.Font, 495);
            lbl.Height = (int) Math.Ceiling(size.Height);
            lbl.Text = text;
        }
