Get label text end x

[drk]

I need get position x of a label ( pos x where the text end ).

idk if it's possible. can someone help?

[Kenix]

You need label text length?

Or you mean label x position?

tonumber?

[drk]

Not label x position, but the end of the label text position.

tonumber?

Why tonumber? lol

function fLabelGetPositionWithTextLength( uLabel, bRelative, sFont, nScale ) 
    if isElement( uLabel ) then 
        local nX, nY = guiGetPosition( uLabel, bRelative ) 
        return nX + dxGetTextWidth( guiGetText( uLabel ), nScale or 1.0, sFont ), nY 
    end 
    return false 
end 

It?

  
function fLabelGetPositionWithTextLength( uLabel, bRelative ) 
    if isElement( uLabel ) then 
        local nX, nY = guiGetPosition( uLabel, bRelative ) 
        return nX + guiLabelGetTextExtent( uLabel ), nY 
    end 
    return false 
end 
  

Updated.

I'm trying this:

x = guiLabelGetTextExtent(uLabel) + 0.09 
local utLabel = guiCreateLabel ( x, aY, aW + w, aH, cap, aRelative, aParent ) 

But when I add this the text don't appear anymore, tried 0.01, 0.05 too.
