Explanation
This DrawText method draws a Text object from the specified point. Prior to executing this method, set appropriate values in the FontName, FontSize, FontBold, FontItalic, FontStrikeout, FontUnderline, ForeColor, ForeColorOpacity, BackColor, BackColorOpacity, Border, BorderColor, BorderColorOpacity, BorderShape, Fill, PenWidth, VerticalText, and RightToLeft properties. Then set the text to be drawn in the Text property. Set the coordinates for the top left corner of the Text object in the DrawText method's pt parameter. When the DrawText method is executed, the text set in the Text property will be drawn in the Text object at that coordinate location. Text will be drawn on a single line unless a new line character is used.
This method will draw text, irrespective of the EditKind and WordWrap property values.
If the coordinates set in the pt parameter are outside the image displayed in the ImageKit control and the LimitAnnotationPosition property or the LimitDrawPosition property are set to True, the text will be repositioned so the coordinate location is within the image.
To delete the text drawn with the DrawText method, right click the object and display the context menu, the select "Undo" or execute the Undo method.
The DrawText method can be used without setting the EditKind property to KindOfEdit.Text.
It is also possible to draw text by setting the EditKind property to KindOfEdit.Text then, on the base image displayed in the ImageKit control, use the mouse and keyboard. For more details, please refer to the Edit Overview.
