DrawArc is Coming up Short

I am having a small issue with using Graphics.DrawArc method. When used it's coming up short than what the actual size is. I am basing this control off another post found here
I am trying to make this into a UserControl with some properties and expand on it. The issue is when I set the percentage per say 50% it comes up short...
This is what the UserControl looks like at 50%... It's should be centered (blue) at the bottom of circle. I have tried adjusting everything I could, but I am at lost right now.
Here is my current code...
Color _ProgressCompletedColor = SystemColors.MenuHighlight;
Color _ProgressNotCompleted = Color.LightGray;
Int32 _ProgressThickness = 2;
Single _ProgressCompleted = 25;
public AttuneProgressBar()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
public Single PercentageCompleted
{
get
{
return this._ProgressCompleted;
}
set
{
this._ProgressCompleted = value;
this.Invalidate();
}
}
public Int32 ProgressBarThickness
{
get
{
return this._ProgressThickness;
}
set
{
this._ProgressThickness = value;
this.Invalidate();
}
}
public Color ProgressNotCompletedColor
{
get
{
return this._ProgressNotCompleted;
}
set
{
this._ProgressNotCompleted = value;
this.Invalidate();
}
}
public Color ProgressCompletedColor
{
get
{
return this._ProgressCompletedColor;
}
set
{
this._ProgressCompletedColor = value;
this.Invalidate();
}
}
protected override void OnPaint(PaintEventArgs e)
{
// Call the OnPaint method of the base class.
base.OnPaint(e);
DrawProgress(e.Graphics, new Rectangle(new Point(1,1), new Size(this.ClientSize.Width - 3, this.ClientSize.Height - 3)), PercentageCompleted);
}
private void DrawProgress(Graphics g, Rectangle rec, Single percentage)
{
Single progressAngle = (360 / 100 * percentage);
Single remainderAngle = 360 - progressAngle;
try
{
using (Pen progressPen = new Pen(ProgressCompletedColor, ProgressBarThickness), remainderPen = new Pen(ProgressNotCompletedColor, ProgressBarThickness))
{
g.SmoothingMode = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.SmoothingMode.AntiAlias;
g.DrawArc(progressPen, rec, -90, progressAngle);
g.DrawArc(remainderPen, rec, progressAngle - 90, remainderAngle);
}
}
catch (Exception exc) { }
}
}

You are calculating the angle with integers. When you do this:
angle = 360 / 100 * percentage;
it means
angle = 3 * percentage;
this of course leads to errors. There is a simple fix if you want to keep using ints:
angle = 360 * percentage / 100;
This way it doesn't get rounded down before multiplication. Or you can just use floats all the way:
angle = 360f / 100f * percentage;

Windows form combobox custom form color

I have been playing around with customizing the WinForm combobox...So far I have the following:
Using this code:
public class ComboBoxWithBorder : ComboBox
{
private Color _borderColor = Color.Black;
private ButtonBorderStyle _borderStyle = ButtonBorderStyle.Solid;
private static int WM_PAINT = 0x000F;
protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)
{
base.WndProc(ref m);
if (m.Msg == WM_PAINT)
{
Graphics g = Graphics.FromHwnd(Handle);
Rectangle bounds = new Rectangle(0, 0, Width, Height);
ControlPaint.DrawBorder(g, bounds, _borderColor, _borderStyle);
}
}
[Category("Appearance")]
public Color BorderColor
{
get { return _borderColor; }
set
{
_borderColor = value;
Invalidate(); // causes control to be redrawn
}
}
[Category("Appearance")]
public ButtonBorderStyle BorderStyle
{
get { return _borderStyle; }
set
{
_borderStyle = value;
Invalidate();
}
}
}
However, I am trying to achieve something similar to this:
Is it possible to change the background color of the white dropdown box to a darker color?
Is it possible to change the dropdown list border from white to a different color?

Creating a transparent picturebox class

C# vertical label in a Windows Forms

Is it possible to display a label vertically in a Windows Forms?

Labels are easy, all you have to do is override the Paint event and draw the text vertically. Do note that GDI is optimised for Drawing text horizontally. If you rotate text (even if you rotate through multiples of 90 degrees) it will looks notably worse.
Perhaps the best thing to do is draw your text (or get a label to draw itself) onto a bitmap, then display the bitmap rotated.
Some C# code for drawing a Custom Control with vertical text. Note that ClearType text NEVER works if the text is not horizontal:
using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Drawing.Drawing2D;
using System.Windows.Forms;
public partial class VerticalLabel : UserControl
{
public VerticalLabel()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void VerticalLabel_SizeChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
GenerateTexture();
}
private void GenerateTexture()
{
StringFormat format = new StringFormat();
format.Alignment = StringAlignment.Center;
format.LineAlignment = StringAlignment.Center;
format.Trimming = StringTrimming.EllipsisCharacter;
Bitmap img = new Bitmap(this.Height, this.Width);
Graphics G = Graphics.FromImage(img);
G.Clear(this.BackColor);
SolidBrush brush_text = new SolidBrush(this.ForeColor);
G.TextRenderingHint = System.Drawing.Text.TextRenderingHint.SingleBitPerPixelGridFit;
G.DrawString(this.Name, this.Font, brush_text, new Rectangle(0, 0, img.Width, img.Height), format);
brush_text.Dispose();
img.RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate270FlipNone);
this.BackgroundImage = img;
}
}

Create a class myLabel which can rotate it's Text on any angle specified by you.
You can use it by code or simply dragging from ToolBox
using System.Drawing;
class myLabel:System.Windows.Forms.Label
{
public int RotateAngle { get; set; } // to rotate your text
public string NewText { get; set; } // to draw text
protected override void OnPaint(System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs e)
{
Brush b =new SolidBrush(this.ForeColor);
e.Graphics.TranslateTransform(this.Width / 2, this.Height / 2);
e.Graphics.RotateTransform(this.RotateAngle);
e.Graphics.DrawString(this.NewText, this.Font,b , 0f, 0f);
base.OnPaint(e);
}
}
Now this custom control is used into your form.
You have to set below properties
1. mylbl.Text = ""; //which can be changed by NewText property
2. mylbl.AutoSize = false; // adjust according to your text
3. mylbl.NewText = "Hello"; // whatever you want to display
4. mylbl.ForeColor = Color.Red; // color to display
5. mylbl.RotateAngle = -90; //angle to rotate

I expanded on Javed Akram's answer to resize the widget automatically (I needed this feature). It works for both positive and negative angles, the way that Javed states:
1. mylbl.Text = ""; // which can be changed by NewText property
2. mylbl.AutoSize = false; // adjust according to your text
3. mylbl.NewText = "Hello"; // whatever you want to display
4. mylbl.ForeColor = Color.Red; // color to display
5. mylbl.RotateAngle = -90; // angle to rotate
Here is the code:
public class RotatingLabel : System.Windows.Forms.Label
{
private int m_RotateAngle = 0;
private string m_NewText = string.Empty;
public int RotateAngle { get { return m_RotateAngle; } set { m_RotateAngle = value; Invalidate(); } }
public string NewText { get { return m_NewText; } set { m_NewText = value; Invalidate(); } }
protected override void OnPaint(System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs e)
{
Func<double, double> DegToRad = (angle) => Math.PI * angle / 180.0;
Brush b = new SolidBrush(this.ForeColor);
SizeF size = e.Graphics.MeasureString(this.NewText, this.Font, this.Parent.Width);
int normalAngle = ((RotateAngle % 360) + 360) % 360;
double normaleRads = DegToRad(normalAngle);
int hSinTheta = (int)Math.Ceiling((size.Height * Math.Sin(normaleRads)));
int wCosTheta = (int)Math.Ceiling((size.Width * Math.Cos(normaleRads)));
int wSinTheta = (int)Math.Ceiling((size.Width * Math.Sin(normaleRads)));
int hCosTheta = (int)Math.Ceiling((size.Height * Math.Cos(normaleRads)));
int rotatedWidth = Math.Abs(hSinTheta) + Math.Abs(wCosTheta);
int rotatedHeight = Math.Abs(wSinTheta) + Math.Abs(hCosTheta);
this.Width = rotatedWidth;
this.Height = rotatedHeight;
int numQuadrants =
(normalAngle >= 0 && normalAngle < 90) ? 1 :
(normalAngle >= 90 && normalAngle < 180) ? 2 :
(normalAngle >= 180 && normalAngle < 270) ? 3 :
(normalAngle >= 270 && normalAngle < 360) ? 4 :
0;
int horizShift = 0;
int vertShift = 0;
if (numQuadrants == 1)
{
horizShift = Math.Abs(hSinTheta);
}
else if (numQuadrants == 2)
{
horizShift = rotatedWidth;
vertShift = Math.Abs(hCosTheta);
}
else if (numQuadrants == 3)
{
horizShift = Math.Abs(wCosTheta);
vertShift = rotatedHeight;
}
else if (numQuadrants == 4)
{
vertShift = Math.Abs(wSinTheta);
}
e.Graphics.TranslateTransform(horizShift, vertShift);
e.Graphics.RotateTransform(this.RotateAngle);
e.Graphics.DrawString(this.NewText, this.Font, b, 0f, 0f);
base.OnPaint(e);
}
}

I found a way to simply do it without adding code or classes to your project!
When you create your label, simply add:
this.label1.text = "V\nE\nR\nT\nI\nC\nA\nL\n";
This worked for me!

You can rotate text instead of the label control in the OnPaint event or Paint method:
private void uc1_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
{
string Name;
var g = e.Graphics;
g.DrawString(Name, new Font("Tahoma", 8), Brushes.Black, 0, 0,
new StringFormat(StringFormatFlags.DirectionVertical));
}

2015 update on an old post. Since most of the other answers seem to heavily affect VS2013's designer in terms of usability, I'd suggest this solution:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/19774/Extended-Vertical-Label-Control-in-C-NET

It absolutely works. I found it on net and little changed

Matrix storedState = g.Transform;
if (bFlip)

g.RotateTransform(180f);
g.TranslateTransform(-ClientRectangle.Width,-ClientRectangle.Height);
}
g.DrawString(
this.Text,
this.Font,
textBrush,

stringFormat);
g.Transform = storedState;

I just turned off the AutoSize property and resized the label vertically. I made the label wide enough for only one character. Then I changed TextAlign to center to make the alignment look better. This worked great for me.

How do I rotate a label in C#? [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
C# vertical label in a Windows Forms
(9 answers)
Closed 9 years ago.
I want to show a label rotated 90 degrees (so I can put a bunch of them at the top of a table as the headings). Is there an easy way to do this?

You will need to write your own or use a custom control.

You can also take a look at the Windows ToolStrip control. It has an option for TextDirection that can be set to Vertical90 or Vertical270 and this will rotate your Label text in the appropriate direction.
