MenuItem::MeasureItem Event
Occurs when the menu needs to know the size of a menu item before drawing it.
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
In order for this event to be raised, you must have the OwnerDraw property of the menu item set to true. This event is raised before owner drawn menus are drawn to allow for the size of the menu item to be drawn to be specified. For more information about handling events, see Handling and Raising Events.
The following code example demonstrates the use of this member. In the example, an event handler reports on the occurrence of the MeasureItem event. This report helps you to learn when the event occurs and can assist you in debugging.
To run the example code, paste it into a project that contains an instance of type MenuItem named MenuItem1. Then ensure that the event handler is associated with the MeasureItem event.
