NOT be a good idea. Thanks for calling me out on that one! Oh dopey me!! <g>
I was just sort of teasin' - I know that if you had remembered the context you would not have suggested it (and that, likewise, Mr. Kane would have spotted the same thing...)

>>First, you'll have to use the MouseMove event. There is no MouseOver event and the MouseHover event does not use MouseEventArgs, which you'll need. You can actually do it two different ways, one of which won't require you to save x,y and size.
>>>
>>>1) If you *do* save x,y and s (size), then you can determine in the MouseMove event handler whether you're in the area like this:
>>>
>>>>>>private void Form1_MouseMove(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
>>>{
>>> if (e.X >= x && e.X <= x + s.Width && e.Y >= y && e.Y <= y + s.Height)
>>> Console.WriteLine("Mouse At {0},{1}", e.X, e.Y);
>>>}
>>>>>>
>>>You can also take care of the whole thing right in your DrawMyText() using anonymous delegates. By doing it this way, you won't even have to save x, y and s!!
>>>
>>>>>>private void TestDrawMyText(Graphics g, string MyText)
>>>{
>>> SizeF s = g.MeasureString(MyText, MyFont);
>>> float x = this.Width / 2 - s.Width / 2;
>>> float y = this.Height / 2 - s.Height / 2;
>>> g.DrawString(MyText, MyFont, Brushes.Gold, x, y, StringFormat.GenericTypographic);
>>>
>>> this.MouseMove += delegate(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
>>> {
>>> if (e.X >= x && e.X <= x + s.Width && e.Y >= y && e.Y <= y + s.Height)
>>> Console.WriteLine("Mouse in TextArea At {0},{1}", e.X, e.Y);
>>> };
>>>}
>>>>>>
