Hi I've made a simple gadget that grabs the latest entry of an RSS feed and displays a message in a label on a fixed width view.
The problem is that I need to know if the text (word-wrapped) exceeds the height of the label. If there is a way to find out if the text is clipped or not, my idea was to incrementally increase the label height until it fits and then animate the Y position of the label so that it scrolls upwards. Ideally I'd like to see the label expand in height automatically so that the text fits (Like the way DIV elements work with the default CSS-overflow setting work). I also noticed that you can set trimming on a label as well but as far as I can tell there is no way to determine if the text is trimmed or not through the api as the value of the label returns the full content of the label as opposed to the trimmed text. Any ideas would be highly appreciated.
