I know how to apply Font.Draw to an array but I'm wondering how to make the lines break normally (as they would using put). Is this possible? |

Sorry, I should've been more clear. I'm reading text from a file which in turn is being put into an array. The length of each string being put into the array, however, is different on a line-per-line basis. How do I ensure that the text doesn't get cut off and goes to the next line like normal? |

Firstly Quote: Is this possible? Of course. Better question: Better Question wrote: Is this easy? probably not. If you want it to cut off at a certain point, then do just that. For instance, you can track where each character would be at on the screen, and when it is at the end, have another statement to draw it on a new line. It would just require ingenuity. |

it's fairly simple to do with Font.Width |
