The following code example demonstrates how to use the Point.Point and Size constructors and the System.Drawing.ContentAlignment enumeration. To run this example paste this code into a Windows Form that contains a label named Label1 and call the IntializeLabel1 method in the form's constructor.
Private Sub InitializeLabel1() ' Set a border. Label1.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.FixedSingle ' Set the size, constructing a size from two integers. Label1.Size = New Size(100, 50) ' Set the location, constructing a point from a 32-bit integer ' (using hexadecimal). Label1.Location = New Point(&H280028) ' Set and align the text on the lower-right side of the label. Label1.TextAlign = ContentAlignment.BottomRight Label1.Text = "Bottom Right Alignment" End Sub
