{{Client function}}
__NOTOC__
This function retrieves the theoretical width and height (in pixels) of a certain piece of text of dgs label.

==Syntax==
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
float float dgsLabelGetTextSize( element theLabel )
</syntaxhighlight>
===Required Arguments===
*'''theLabel:''' The label of whose text you wish to retrieve the width and height.

===Returns===

==Example==
This example creates a text label, gets the text extent and font height, and sets the text label size according to these values.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
DGS = exports.dgs

local myLabel = DGS:dgsCreateLabel ( 200, 200, 100, 100, "OK. This is a dgs label of which you want to get the text width and height", false )
DGS:dgsSetProperty(myLabel,"wordBreak",true)
local width,height = DGS:dgsLabelGetTextSize( myLabel )
local background = DGS:dgsCreateImage(200, 200, width, height, _, false, _, tocolor(0,0,0,100))
