In my project I need to create some label at runtime. These have a different height that depends from a field of a database. I need to write some text in the label, but I need, if the label have a small height, to resize the font depending by the label height.

I’ve tried with this:

Label lbl = new Label();
lbl.AutoSize = false;
lbl.Font = new System.Drawing.Font(lbl.Font.FontFamily, Convert.ToSingle(lbl.Height / 2));
lbl.TextAlign = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter;

    You can use the FontHeight property to change the height of a font. This could do the job.

    MSDN:

    Gets or sets the height of the font of the control.
    …
    The FontHeight property should not be set to any value other than the
    control’s Font.Height value, or -1.Setting FontHeight to -1 has the
    effect of clearing the cached height value, and the value is
    recalculated the next time the property is referenced.
