Working with the element after adding into PageLayout Control ?

TaiBui — Mon, 27 May 2013 02:26:25 GMT

Hi,

I added text elements into the PageLayout Control (such as: "Hello world"), by using below statement:

pGraphicsContainer.AddElement(pElement, 0);

Then, I used the "select elements" arrow (on my tool bar) to select this word, now I want to creat a right button clicking event after selecting, then do something (such as: set font name/font size)

How can I indentify the Id of the elements and How can I create right button clicking event in this case ?

Thank you very much for your help !

Tai,

One way is to tag the text element name property using the IElementProperties3 Interface. This would be equivalent to you going into the text element in page layout and setting the name property under the size and position tab.
