The size in pixels of text

[TomaHawK]

Hi,

I have a text member that it's text is changed on time to time, and I
need to know the size in pixels of the current text at a time

I'm not asking for the width and height of the member
(member("text).width and member("text).height), but just the size of
the part with text in it.

Or... in other words, can I resize the text member to adjust it's size
to the text it is holding?
That way I could get it's size with member("text).width and
member("text).height

Thanks

Thank you for the tip, that might help me to get the height of the
text.

Do you have any idea how to get the width?
Any tip might be helpfull
