Hi Mirek,

In fact I do need it: When rendering maps, I use underlining for marking text objects selected for editing or processing. Additionally, I plan to use strikeout for marking text objects that are selected for deletion.

Logically, I think while underline/strikeout are not part of Character(), they still are part of Text(). After all, these are valid Font properties and the most logical and efficient location for rendering them is right there in Text(). They should not hurt anybody not using them at the cost of one if statement. Strikeout/Underline are disabled by default and only voluntarily enabled in a Font.

If this cannot be included, I can of course use external code for the purpose (similar to what is found in DrawTextOp()), which is a bit slower since it needs to calculate the width of the string redundantly.

You choose Smile

Thanks and best regards,

Tom
