Is it possible to create a label with multline property?

Md Islam · Answer

In the Label Properties of Visual Studio: Select Text and click on the drop down arrow at right end now type first line and press Enter then type 2nd line and press Enter follow the above steps by code: label2.Text = "Line1
Line 2"; or, label3.Text = "L3 Line 1" + Environment.NewLine + "L3 Line 2"; or, label4.Text = "L4Line 1 
 L4Line 2"; Md. Ahdabul Islam md.add07@yahoo.com

You could change the property Autosize to false, that way you can adjust the size anyway you want.

Yeah that is possible. Instead of using the label property... view the code behind and do this instead: this.label1.Text = @" Line 1 Line 2 Line 3 "; Remember to place the @ in front of the "". It enables you to do as above. Hope it helps. Cheers.

I would consider them already multi-line, as the text will wrap to the next line if it exceeds the horizontal size of the label.
