Adding Subscript/superscript Characters To A Richtextbox?
Oct 3, 2011
For the past 2-3 weeks, I've been on VB Express working on different word processors, working myself up from the level of the Windows Notepad to Wordpad, and eventually (hopefully) something as good as OpenOffice.org Writer or Microsoft Word.I'm currently stuck on something that I can't quite figure out. My question is basically this, "How do you add subscript and superscript characters (not just the few numbers in the character map) to a richtextbox control?!" I'd be very grateful to anyone who could provide me with some help in this area.
How do you add subscript and superscript to a richtextbox? I need it so that when the user presses a button the selected text will become sub/p script.
I am using decimal numbers to be able to sort correctly in Excel; however I want to have a column where they are displayed as fractions. I have made a function to convert them to fractions as text ( 1.625 converts to "1 5/8 dia."). I would like to make the 5 superscript and the 8 subscript. I can do this manually by highlighting the number and formatting, but I would like to do this in code.
This is my first post at the forums, if I did something wrong making this topic Okey so here is the deal. The program task is to take 50 codes including letters and numbers. Take them and insert them into a webpage(webbrowser1) witch is designed to deal with these codes(3 fields). To check if the codes is valid etc.
Here is what I got :
WebBrowser1.document.GetElementById("Website textbox ID here").SetAttribute("value", TextBox1.Text) WebBrowser1.document.GetElementById("Website textbox ID here").SetAttribute("value", TextBox2.Text) ' WebBrowser1.document.GetElementById("Website textbox ID here").SetAttribute("value", TextBox3.Text) '
What this does it takes textbox1.text input(first part of code) and inserts in the first field at the website.The to others to exactly the same.But instead of having 3 diffrent texboxes I want it like in this pic.
i'm writing a program that gets text from word document and puts it in a richtextbox. The problem is the characters are unreadable once in the richtextbox.
I need help with my app. My app is retrieving data from the webBrowser and putting them into individual lines in the richtextbox. My problem is, if the retrieved string is too long then it takes more than 1 line in a richtextbox.
If I set the Text property of a RTB to a string that has CrLf's in it, it seems the RTB reduces the CrLf's to a single character & screws up the positioning to set the SelectionStart property.So, for example, if I know the position of a character in the original string & I set the Selection Start value to that position, the selection highlighting will be off by 1 character if the start position is preceded by a CrLf & off by 2 characters if preceded by 2 CrLf's, etc.So how can I determine the correct position to specify my SelectionStart value?
... where the left six characters are an offset and each xx represents one character and the string of cs on the right are the actual characters.
I've learned that I have to keep control characters out of that string of cs or the display gets messed up. I've been using this code and it works fine (when it's not commented out). (binbuf is a Byte array)
'Select Case Convert.ToInt32(binbuf(i)) < 128 ' Case True 'traditional ASCII character ' If Convert.ToChar(binbuf(i)) <> " "c Then
I have a string value (which is a hex value) that is displayed as so...F8 30 00 3D FC 13 F8 30 00 01 31 73 34 FE 34 DE F8 30 00 3D FC 13 F8 30 00 01 31 73 34 FE 34 DE F8 30 00 3D FC 13 F8 30 00 01 31 73 34 FE 34 DEThis continues on in this exact pattern. What I am trying to do is to get a " " inserted after the first 24 characters, and then after the next 24, delete a character and place an Enter or Return value. Then I would like another " " after the next 24, and then after 24 more, delete a character and place an Enter or Return value so on until the end of the string. The format would then look like this.[code]I know this is probably done with some type of array and loop, but I'm not even sure where to get started.
I am using Visual Basic 2005 to develop a proframme and I have TextBoxes, Lables and Buttons in that.I want to name these controls. I wish to superscript the Text. i.e., to denote Sq.mm - as mm with power 2. But if we type or cut & paste from Ms Word, the typed name is changing as mm2. The power i.e. 2 can not to typed with superscript text.
i'm adding an text to my RichTextBox by using a button. what i need to do is to add the text and Focus the cursor at the end of the text in the RichTextBox.
I don't know how to add colored text to a richtextbox.
To make already existing text colored, I have tried things like:
RichTextBox1.SelectionStart = RichTextBox1.Find("colored word") RichTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Blue RichTextBox1.SelectionLength = 0 ..so it will change the color of the found word.
The problem is, when the "colored word" exists multiple times in the textbox, it will never change theirs color. It only searches for the first "colored word" and it wont affect the others.
It would be even better when someone knows how to directly add colored text instead of changing it when it's added.
I have a richtextbox and I am adding text to the rich text box programmically using RichTextBox1.AppendText(Environment.NewLine & "The red fox jumps over the" I have a variable called "myvariable" How can I program my button to type the text above and then insert variable's value in one line? Example: Let's that myvariable = "moon" How can I code my button to say "The red fox jumps over the moon"
I need to add a subscript (a little number next to a character, like 2 or 3 - note: not a power of...) to a string [variable]. I don't want the code to be lengthy as I will need to process a lot of formulas, one at a time.
I want to add a spell checking feature to my richtextbox but i do not want to use MS Word or any other application to spell check for me. I have got a list of words for the spell checker in a .txt file with each word on a spereate line.
I am opening an exe that launches in a hidden cmd window, and redirecting the text to a RichTextBox on a form. The problem is that the status messages in the cmd window are in color, but the redirected text in the RichTextBox has no color information and show as black on white. However, all the status messages in the cmd window have headers that could be parsed in some way so I can add color to them for my RichTextbox. For example, a message in the cmd window might read: [Warning] No settings file was found, using default values instead. This message is in Yellow in the cmd window.
First... does the array subscript have to be sequential? (0,1,2,3,4) Or could I pull the system date and use that? i.e. dim Beer() could have Beer(33939) for today, and then not record anything for three weeks and the next entry would be Beer(33960), etc.Along the same lines, and pointless if the answer above is yes...I'm writing a prog to handle inventory for a bar. The bar has 230 different beers at the moment. Could I create a 2-dimensional array using a product number, date for the subscript?
i.e. - for received data... recBeer(a,b)recBeer(229,33939) = 48(Meaning 48 bottles of beer #229 arrived on date 33939)SO... a is the product, b is the date. Any searches for (229,*) would provide me with the complete history of that product being received. any searches for (*,33939) would tell me all of what was received on that date.Will that work?(And yes, I'm stuck with a flat file to make this work. Much rather have a db involved.)
how to place subscripts in an RTF control. I know I have to use some sort of code, but I have no idea what it is or how to implement it. For example, I want to write "VBnet" with the "net" being as a subscript.
I need to put 2 different fields on the same line/row/subscript, into a one-dimensional array or list. I've done this before with a delimiter and then parsed it out later, but I wonder if there is a nicer way to do this?
Essentially I am trying to replicate the Windows 7 (In-Windows) activation key TextBox form. The Form where it will auto capitalize letters, remove or deny all non alphanumeric characters except dashes every 5 characters that will be auto-input.I assume this can be done with a fairly complicated replacement Regular Expression but I cannot seem to create one to fit the needs.
This is an Example of what I have right now, but it creates an infinite loop as it removes all characters including dashes, than adds a dash, which changes the text and removes the dash again.
