Performs actions needed to draw the control on its Canvas.

Declaration

Source position: stdctrls.pp line 1609

public procedure TCustomLabel.Paint; override;

Description

Paint is an overridden method in TCustomLabel used to draw the control on its Canvas. Paint ensures that property values in the control are applied to the Canvas before measuring and drawing its Text, including:

DoDrawText is called to render the label text using the DrawText flags needed for the property values.

Remark: Paint does not call the inherited method in TGraphicControl. As a result, it does not signal the OnPaint event handler in the ancestor class.
