Text getting clipped when drawing using graphics.DrawString method

Question

I am using the graphics.MeasureString method to measure the text size. And based on the measured text size, I was the draw the string using the graphics.MeasureString. But in that I was using the StringFormat to measure and draw the string. But I found the text clipping problem in some text like "left".

Please find the code snippet below,

string text = "Left";
Font font = new System.Drawing.Font("Segoe UI Semibold", 9F);
StringFormat format = new StringFormat(StringFormatFlags.NoWrap);
SizeF size = e.Graphics.MeasureString(text, font, 100, format);
e.Graphics.DrawString(text, font, new SolidBrush(Color.Black), new RectangleF(10, 10, size.Width, size.Height), format);

Please find the text clipping while drawing in below screen shot,

Can you please suggest how to solve this issue?

Answer 1

Try the following. I have removed the StringFormat from the code. It works.

string text = "Left";
Font font = new Font("Segoe UI Semibold", 9F);
//StringFormat format = new StringFormat(StringFormatFlags.NoWrap);
SizeF size = e.Graphics.MeasureString(text, font, 100);
e.Graphics.DrawString(text, font, new SolidBrush(Color.Black), new RectangleF(10, 10, size.Width, size.Height));

Edit1

I have modified the answer as per OP's request to use StringFormat enum.

string text = "Left";
Font font = new Font("Segoe UI Semibold", 9F);
StringFormat format = new StringFormat(StringFormatFlags.NoWrap);
SizeF size = e.Graphics.MeasureString(text, font, 100, format);
e.Graphics.DrawString(text, font, new SolidBrush(Color.Black), new RectangleF(10, 10, size.Width + 5, size.Height), format);
