You can use String.MeasureWidth to find the width of the substring.

It should work with multiline

It should work with multiline strings (strings with CRLF).

I dont understand. If i want to manage clicks for a special word in a multima label, how String.measurewidth can help me. I need to know the top and left coordinates of the word to put a view on it.

Not sure I understand what you want?

Do you want a single label with multiple words in it that link to different places?

i need a label to be able detect ex. Phone number, URL, Adress,... and manage clicks on it.
if I will have the Rect of that string I can put a panel for example on it and manage clicks

I managed to create an algorithm which checking which word is on which line but a got stuck on a word which is larger than the label width(is on multiple lines). If this last issue will be resolved we will have a full custom label Class which can handle clicks on specific string.

Please see attached the project.
