Label Expression - set font size

AndrewIngall1 — Fri, 24 Mar 2017 11:03:00 GMT

I am trying to set the font size of my label pragmatically and currently have the following, however all of the labels appear to be being drawn with a font size of 8, which is set in the label settings:-

Function FindLabel ( [TextString], [FontSize] )

FindLabel = "<FNT Size = '([FontSize]/354)'>" + [TextString] + "</FNT>"

End Function

Any ideas how to set the font size using an expression.

Thanks

I am assuming you want this in VB Script...... so something like below would work..... my Font Size is based upon the Bridge Width while I am labeling the Bridge Number ....

Function FindLabel ( [BRIDGE_NUM],[Width])
  myFontSize = int([Width]/10)
  myFormat = "<FNT name='Arial' size = '" & myFontSize & "'>"
  FindLabel = myFormat & [BRIDGE_NUM] & "</FNT>"
End Function‍‍‍‍‍

Here is my working sample with ArcPro in 2023.

Function FindLabel ( [STREET_NUMBER], [notes] ) If IsNull([notes]) Then FindLabel = [STREET_NUMBER] Else FindLabel = [STREET_NUMBER] + vbcrlf + "<FNT size='2'>" + [notes] + "</FNT>" End If End Function
