# IPCB_Text interface

A text string on a PCB document, either a free text string or the designator or comment of a component.

```csharp
public interface IPCB_Text : IPCB_RectangularPrimitive
```

**Namespace:** PCB · **Assembly:** Altium.SDK.Interfaces

**Inherits:** [IPCB_Primitive](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Primitive.md) → [IPCB_RectangularPrimitive](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_RectangularPrimitive.md)

**Derived:** [IPCB_Text3](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Text3.md)

## Remarks

There are two classes of text strings: free text strings and component text. Free text strings are standalone strings that can be used as descriptors or labels. Component text is the designator and the comment of a component; they are text objects themselves, returned by [`IPCB_Component.Name`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Component.md#name) and [`IPCB_Component.Comment`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Component.md#comment), and their `Text` property reads or writes the designator or comment string. Each component must have a unique designator, so designators are not globally editable; comments are.

A text can be drawn with a stroke font, with a TrueType font or as a barcode ([`TextKind`](#textkind)).

The PCB editor includes special strings, which are interpreted when output (printing, plotting or generating Gerber files) is generated. For example, the string .PRINT_DATE is replaced by the current date. [`ConvertedString`](#convertedstring) returns the text with its special strings replaced.

Text objects are rectangular primitives with the corner coordinates and the rotation of [`IPCB_RectangularPrimitive`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_RectangularPrimitive.md). A text is not a group and has no child objects. A text can be converted into a series of strokes with [`ConvertToStrokeArray`](#converttostrokearray).

## Example

Place a text object on the top overlay of a new PCB document.

```csharp
using DXP;
using PCB;

// Create a new PCB document.
var workspace = DXP.GlobalVars.Client.GetDXPWorkspace() as EDP.IWorkspace;
if (workspace == null)
    return;
workspace.DM_CreateNewDocument("PCB");
IPCB_ServerInterface pcbServer = PCB.GlobalVars.PCBServer;
IPCB_Board board = pcbServer?.GetCurrentPCBBoard();
if (board == null)
    return;

// Create a text object on the top overlay layer.
board.SetState_LayerIsDisplayed(new V7_Layer(TV6_Layer.eV6_TopOverlay), true);
var textObj = pcbServer.PCBObjectFactory(TObjectId.eTextObject, TDimensionKind.eNoDimension, TObjectCreationMode.eCreate_Default) as IPCB_Text;
textObj.SetState_XLocation(EDP.Utils.MilsToCoord(board.GetState_XOrigin() + 4000));
textObj.SetState_YLocation(EDP.Utils.MilsToCoord(board.GetState_YOrigin() + 2000));
textObj.SetState_Layer(TV6_Layer.eV6_TopOverlay);
textObj.SetState_Text("Text Object");
textObj.SetState_Size(EDP.Utils.MilsToCoord(90)); // sets the height of the text
board.AddPCBObject(textObj);
```

### FontID

The stroke font of the text, an index into the font table of the PCB editor.

```csharp
short GetState_FontID();
void SetState_FontID(short argFontID);
```

**Type:** `short` · **Access:** read/write

Each font used in the PCB editor has its own font ID; when a new font is used, a new entry is added to the table. A new text object uses font 1.

### FontName

The name of the TrueType font of the text, for example Arial, Arial Narrow, Courier New or Verdana.

```csharp
string GetState_FontName();
void SetState_FontName(string argFontName);
```

**Type:** `string` · **Access:** read/write

The value is used when [`UseTTFonts`](#usettfonts) is true. A new text object uses Arial.

### Inverted

Whether the text is inverted, that is, cut out of a filled rectangle drawn around it.

```csharp
bool GetState_Inverted();
void SetState_Inverted(bool argInverted);
```

**Type:** `bool` · **Access:** read/write

Inverted text is useful when the text is placed on a copper region and has to create a cutout in it. The rectangle has the layer colour and the text itself is black. [`InvertedTTTextBorder`](#invertedtttextborder) sets the border around the text. A new text object is not inverted.

**See also:** [IPCB_Text.InvertedTTTextBorder](#invertedtttextborder)

### InvertedTTTextBorder

The width of the border between inverted text and the edge of its rectangle, in internal units (10,000 per mil).

```csharp
int GetState_InvertedTTTextBorder();

```csharp
int GetState_InvRectHeight();
void SetState_InvRectHeight(int argValue);
```

**Type:** `int` · **Access:** read/write

For single-line text the value is reset to the height of the string plus its border whenever the size of the text is recalculated. Assigning a value smaller than [`TTFTextHeight`](#ttftextheight) is ignored, unless the current height is 0 or less, in which case any positive value is accepted.

### InvRectWidth

The width of the rectangle of inverted text, in internal units (10,000 per mil).

```csharp
int GetState_InvRectWidth();
void SetState_InvRectWidth(int argValue);
```

**Type:** `int` · **Access:** read/write

For single-line text the value is reset to the width of the string plus its border whenever the size of the text is recalculated. Assigning a value that is not greater than [`TTFTextWidth`](#ttftextwidth) is ignored, unless the current width is 0 or less (any positive value is then accepted) or the value equals [`TTFTextWidth`](#ttftextwidth) and the current width is smaller.

### Italic

Whether the text is italic when it uses a TrueType font ([`UseTTFonts`](#usettfonts)).

```csharp
bool GetState_Italic();
void SetState_Italic(bool argItalic);
```

**Type:** `bool` · **Access:** read/write

A new text object is not italic.

### Mirror

Whether the text is mirrored.

```csharp
bool GetState_Mirror();
void SetState_Mirror(bool argMirror);
```

**Type:** `bool` · **Access:** read/write

A new text object is not mirrored.

### Multiline

Whether the text is a multiline text block.

```csharp
bool GetState_Multiline();
void SetState_Multiline(bool argValue);
```

**Type:** `bool` · **Access:** read/write

Assigning true is ignored for the text of a dimension or a coordinate. Assigning a value also sets [`WordWrap`](#wordwrap) to the same value. A new text object is single-line.

### MultilineTextAutoPosition

Where the string is placed inside the rectangle of multiline or inverted text.

```csharp
TTextAutoposition GetState_MultilineTextAutoPosition();
void SetState_MultilineTextAutoPosition(TTextAutoposition argutoPosition);
```

**Type:** [TTextAutoposition](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/TTextAutoposition.md) · **Access:** read/write

The accessors are extension methods of `IPCB_TextHelper` (`using PCB;`).

The property reads and writes the same value as [`TTFInvertedTextJustify`](#ttfinvertedtextjustify).

### MultilineTextHeight

The height of the multiline text block, in internal units (10,000 per mil).

```csharp
int GetState_MultilineTextHeight();
void SetState_MultilineTextHeight(int argHeight);
```

**Type:** `int` · **Access:** read/write

Returns 0 when `Multiline` is false. Assigning a value sets [`Y2Location`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_RectangularPrimitive.md#y2location) to [`Y1Location`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_RectangularPrimitive.md#y1location) plus the value, and sets [`TTFTextHeight`](#ttftextheight) and [`InvRectHeight`](#invrectheight) to the value; the block itself is resized only when [`MultilineTextResizeEnabled`](#multilinetextresizeenabled) is true.

### MultilineTextResizeEnabled

Whether assigning [`MultilineTextWidth`](#multilinetextwidth) and [`MultilineTextHeight`](#multilinetextheight) resizes the multiline text block.

```csharp
bool GetState_MultilineTextResizeEnabled();
```

**Type:** `bool` · **Access:** read-only

Returns false when `Multiline` is false.

### MultilineTextWidth

The width of the multiline text block, in internal units (10,000 per mil).

```csharp
int GetState_MultilineTextWidth();
void SetState_MultilineTextWidth(int argWidth);
```

**Type:** `int` · **Access:** read/write

Returns 0 when `Multiline` is false. Assigning a value sets [`X2Location`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_RectangularPrimitive.md#x2location) to [`X1Location`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_RectangularPrimitive.md#x1location) plus the value (for mirrored text, [`X1Location`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_RectangularPrimitive.md#x1location) to [`X2Location`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_RectangularPrimitive.md#x2location) minus the value), and sets [`TTFTextWidth`](#ttftextwidth) and [`InvRectWidth`](#invrectwidth) to the value; the block itself is resized only when [`MultilineTextResizeEnabled`](#multilinetextresizeenabled) is true.

### Size

The height of the text, in internal units (10,000 per mil).

```csharp
int GetState_Size();
void SetState_Size(int argSize);
```

**Type:** `int` · **Access:** read/write

A negative value or a value above 10 inches (10,000 mil) is ignored. A new text object has a height of 60 mil.

### Text

The string of the text object.

```csharp
string GetState_Text();
void SetState_Text(string argText);
```

**Type:** `string` · **Access:** read/write

When the text is on a board whose view displays special strings converted, reading returns the converted string ([`ConvertedString`](#convertedstring)); otherwise it returns the underlying string, or for a component comment the comment of the current variant. Assigning a value sets the underlying string ([`UnderlyingString`](#underlyingstring)) and, for a barcode, regenerates [`BarCodeBitPattern`](#barcodebitpattern); assigning the string that the text already holds does nothing. For a component comment that has a value in the current variant, assigning a different string asks the user for confirmation and then changes the comment of the variant.

### TextKind

Whether the text is drawn with the stroke font, with a TrueType font or as a barcode.

```csharp
TTextKind GetState_TextKind();
void SetState_TextKind(TTextKind argValue);
```

**Type:** [TTextKind](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/TTextKind.md) · **Access:** read/write

The accessors are extension methods of `IPCB_TextHelper` (`using PCB;`).

[`UseTTFonts`](#usettfonts) is true exactly when the kind is `TTextKind.eText_TrueTypeFont`. A new text object uses `TTextKind.eText_StrokeFont`.

### TTFInvertedTextJustify

Where the string is placed inside the rectangle of inverted or multiline text.

```csharp
TTextAutoposition GetState_TTFInvertedTextJustify();
void SetState_TTFInvertedTextJustify(TTextAutoposition argValue);
```

**Type:** [TTextAutoposition](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/TTextAutoposition.md) · **Access:** read/write

The accessors are extension methods of `IPCB_TextHelper` (`using PCB;`).

Only the values from `TTextAutoposition.eAutoPos_TopLeft` to `TTextAutoposition.eAutoPos_BottomRight` are accepted; assigning `TTextAutoposition.eAutoPos_Manual` is ignored. [`MultilineTextAutoPosition`](#multilinetextautoposition) reads and writes the same value. A new text object uses `TTextAutoposition.eAutoPos_BottomLeft`.

### TTFOffsetFromInvertedRect

*No description yet.*

```csharp
int GetState_TTFOffsetFromInvertedRect();
void SetState_TTFOffsetFromInvertedRect(int argValue);
```

**Type:** `int` · **Access:** read/write

A new text object has the value 0.

### TTFTextHeight

The height of the string of the text, in internal units (10,000 per mil).

```csharp
int GetState_TTFTextHeight();
void SetState_TTFTextHeight(int argValue);
```

**Type:** `int` · **Access:** read/write

The value is calculated for stroke, TrueType and barcode text whenever the size of the text is recalculated, and is also set by assigning [`MultilineTextHeight`](#multilinetextheight).

### TTFTextWidth

The width of the string of the text, in internal units (10,000 per mil).

```csharp
int GetState_TTFTextWidth();
void SetState_TTFTextWidth(int argValue);
```

**Type:** `int` · **Access:** read/write

The value is calculated for stroke, TrueType and barcode text whenever the size of the text is recalculated, and is also set by assigning [`MultilineTextWidth`](#multilinetextwidth).

### UnderlyingString

The string of the text as stored, with special strings not converted.

```csharp
string GetState_UnderlyingString();
void SetState_UnderlyingString(string argValue);
```

**Type:** `string` · **Access:** read/write

Unlike `Text`, reading never converts special strings and never returns the comment of a variant. Assigning a value sets the stored string; for a component comment that has a value in the current variant, assigning a different string asks the user for confirmation and then changes the comment of the variant.

### UseInvertedRectangle

*No description yet.*

```csharp
bool GetState_UseInvertedRectangle();
void SetState_UseInvertedRectangle(bool argValue);
```

**Type:** `bool` · **Access:** read/write

Reading the property returns the value of `Inverted`.

### UseTTFonts

Whether the text uses a TrueType font ([`FontName`](#fontname), `Bold`, `Italic`) rather than the stroke font [`FontID`](#fontid).

```csharp
bool GetState_UseTTFonts();
void SetState_UseTTFonts(bool argUseTTFonts);
```

**Type:** `bool` · **Access:** read/write

The value is true when [`TextKind`](#textkind) is `TTextKind.eText_TrueTypeFont`. Assigning true sets [`TextKind`](#textkind) to `TTextKind.eText_TrueTypeFont`; assigning false sets it to `TTextKind.eText_StrokeFont` only when it was `TTextKind.eText_TrueTypeFont`, so a barcode stays a barcode. A new text object uses the stroke font.

**Example:** Place an inverted TrueType text object on the bottom overlay of the current board.

```csharp
using PCB;

IPCB_ServerInterface pcbServer = PCB.GlobalVars.PCBServer;
IPCB_Board board = pcbServer?.GetCurrentPCBBoard();
if (board == null)
    return;
IPCB_Sheet sheet = board.GetState_PCBSheet();

var textObj = pcbServer.PCBObjectFactory(TObjectId.eTextObject, TDimensionKind.eNoDimension, TObjectCreationMode.eCreate_Default) as IPCB_Text;
// Notify that the PCB object is going to be modified.
textObj.BeginModify();
textObj.SetState_XLocation(sheet.GetState_SheetX() + EDP.Utils.MilsToCoord(1000));
textObj.SetState_YLocation(sheet.GetState_SheetY() + EDP.Utils.MilsToCoord(1000));
textObj.SetState_Layer(TV6_Layer.eV6_BottomOverlay);
// Use TrueType fonts.
textObj.SetState_UseTTFonts(true);
textObj.SetState_Italic(true);
textObj.SetState_Bold(false);
textObj.SetState_FontName("ARIAL");
textObj.SetState_Inverted(true);

### CanEditMultilineRectSize

*No description yet.*

```csharp
bool CanEditMultilineRectSize();
```

**Returns:** `bool`

A new text object returns true.

### ConvertToStrokeArray

Converts the text into a series of line strokes.

```csharp
IPCB_StrokeArray ConvertToStrokeArray();
```

**Returns:** [IPCB_StrokeArray](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_StrokeArray.md)

Extension method of `IPCB_TextHelper` (`using PCB;`).

### GetDesignatorDisplayString

Returns the designator string that the text displays.

```csharp
string GetDesignatorDisplayString();
```

**Returns:** `string`

Returns an empty string when the text is not the designator of a component ([`IsDesignator`](#isdesignator)).

### GetTrueTypeTextOutlineGeometricPolygon

Returns the outline of the text as a geometric polygon.

```csharp
IPCB_GeometricPolygon GetTrueTypeTextOutlineGeometricPolygon();
```

**Returns:** [IPCB_GeometricPolygon](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_GeometricPolygon.md)

### GetTrueTypeTextOutlineGeometricPolygon_1

Returns the outline of a string drawn in the text's TrueType font, as a geometric polygon.

```csharp
IPCB_GeometricPolygon GetTrueTypeTextOutlineGeometricPolygon_1(string argText);
```

| Parameter | Type | Passing | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `argText` | `string` | value | The string to outline. |

**Returns:** [IPCB_GeometricPolygon](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_GeometricPolygon.md)

```csharp
bool InAutoDimension();
```

**Returns:** `bool`

Returns true when the text belongs to a dimension whose kind is not `TDimensionKind.eOriginalDimension`. Returns false when the text is not on a board or the board is still being loaded.

### IsComment

Returns whether the text is the comment of a component.

```csharp
bool IsComment();
```

**Returns:** `bool`

Returns false when the text is not on a board or the board is still being loaded. A component's comment is returned by [`IPCB_Component.Comment`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Component.md#comment).

### IsDesignator

Returns whether the text is the designator of a component.

```csharp
bool IsDesignator();
```

**Returns:** `bool`

Returns false when the text is not on a board or the board is still being loaded. A component's designator is returned by [`IPCB_Component.Name`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Component.md#name).

### IsHidden_1

Returns whether the text is hidden.

```csharp
bool IsHidden_1();
```

**Returns:** `bool`

Besides the cases in which any primitive is hidden ([`IsHidden`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Primitive.md#ishidden)), returns true for the designator of a component whose [`IPCB_Component.NameOn`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Component.md#nameon) is false and for the comment of a component whose [`IPCB_Component.CommentOn`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Component.md#commenton) is false.

### RotationHandle

Returns the position of the text's rotation handle, in internal units (10,000 per mil).
