Label size changes

Question

I have a Label, whose content is displayed by a while loop. when i display a text in label, it displays correctly. sometime minutes, the same text displayed in the same label, and the size of the text in the control changes.

Here is the code :

//Form_Load :

Thread t = new Thread(displaySentences);
t.Start();


//display sentences:
void displaySentences()
{
    while(true)
    {
       if(i>=5)
          i=0;

       label4.Text = textarray[i];
       i++;

    }

}

the size of the text in the first iteration(i=0) is different from the size of the text in the label control in the second iteration.

Answer 1

Do you not want autosizing? Set the autosize property to false.

Answer 2

I'd be looking for something elsewhere that was modifying properties on the label4 object.

Side note - should you really be spawning a thread and having that thread mess with the UI? Chris Sells wrote a series of articles in which he explained why this was a bad idea.
