Get length of inputed text in pixels?

[VorDa]

How to split-get inputed text from input-edit control by pixels?

input control have length 400pixels, how to get from it 200pixels text?(not 200 characters)

Or convert pixels to characters and get number of characters?

Any idea?

I believe that font can make that very variable. Imprecise.

At least that, be defined.

You could get an approximation. Choose a fixed width font and based on the font size you choose, record the pixel width of a single character. Then just multiple the width by the length of your string.
