Capturing And Keeping RTB Font Values Via Font Dialog?
Jul 27, 2010
everything tests well but when I evoke the function the dialog values default to selections other than what the text was originally/last set to (e.g., color, font, size, etc. in the dialog/menu is not what is shown in my rich text box).how I can set the above values per the text being recalled in the RTB? That is, in the above scenario if I hit the cancel button I lose the original text formatting.
Public Class frmComment
Private Sub FontDialog1_Apply(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles FontDialog1.Apply
If Not RichTextBoxPrintCtrl1.SelectionFont Is Nothing Then
I have a scenario to resolve using the font dialog code below. In brief, everything tests well but when I evoke the function the dialog values default to selections other than what the text was originally/last set to (e.g., color, font, size, etc. in the dialog/menu is not what is shown in my rich text box). [code]...
I use a fontdialog box in my application allowing users to change the font details within my application. This works fine but unfortunatly I don't seem to be able to set the values in the dialogbox as they are read only.
Basically if the user has Bold Wingdings set and wishes to change it to something else then when they open up the fontdialog box I would like to be able to set the font to wingdings and bold so the user can see what they previously selected. Word seems to do this so why cant I?
I can't change change the font size or font name or color of the text in the DHTML Editing Control. I have 2 listbox controls FontNameList containing all of the installed fonts on my PC and FontSizeList containing some numbers to be used as fontsize and I use the execommand and build my App but the font did not change instead it grew bigger but when I tryed to change it back it stayed the same. The Code for that was:
printing barcode 39 truetype from idautomation i already try their integration guide but it didnt work....i want my project to
1. Label1 changes to what i type in the textbox1(the label1 is a barcode i change the font of the label1 into IDAutomationHC39M font from IDAutomation)...ive already done that...
2. print the barcode(which is the label1) when i click my button named btnprint..but it doesnt print...
I am creating an excel report from vb.net. Now it works. But i realize that the apparent does not make sense. I just want enlarge some font size and change font name plus setting up the page to fit my receipt printer (Epson TM-T88IV).
I'm having a bit of trouble with my project here... and Google isn't helping very much. To put it briefly, I'm currently making a sticky note program (one fairly similar to Sticky Notes, for those of you familiar with Windows Vista or 7). It's relatively simple, as the "note" itself is basically a glorified Rich Text Box.
My problem is this: I obviously want to allow some for some customization with the font, however I don't want to use a standard full-on Dialog Box. So I designed a small form with 2 Combo Boxes--one for font and the other for size--and 2 buttons, "OK" and "Cancel". What I'm attempting to do is program this form (named dlgFont) to more or less be recognized as a Font Dialog Box. I've got some of it figured out I think, but I can't seem to put the pieces together in a way that actually works.In the code for my main form, I have this within the Class... stuff:
Friend WithEvents dlgFont As System.Windows.Forms.FontDialog
As for the Command Button that pulls up the dialog box itself, well, it's actually a Context Menu Strip Item... I'm not really sure what to put. So far I've only tried this:
dlgFont.ShowDialog
And for the Apply event, I've got the generic stuff:
Private Sub dlgFont_Apply(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles dlgFont.Apply If dlgFont.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then Me.Font = dlgFont.Font End If End Sub
That's all I have for the main form. This is what dlgFont looks like: 'A limited-ability font dialog box.
I am attempting to do something which isn't particularly obvious (to me at least). Digging around on the web I located the following sample (notice the font sample appears in the list on the left?).[URL] Now I know how to use the font dialog from VB.Net, but don't know the appropriate property to set to get the example to show in the listbox/listview? I set the same properties as the author but it shows a plain text font. I am basically attempting to save my users from having to click through every font to see what they each look like.
I'm using the font dialog and have noticed that when I select/highlight portions of text and then cancel out of the dialog, the selected text is changed to the default settings (i.e., font type, style, size, color, etc).
Is there a way to preserve the original text settings?
I am using visual studio 2010 and I put a font dialog to change in a rich textbox. I tried this code: richtextbox1.Font.Name = Fontdialog1.font and it didnt work I dont know why.
I am trying to use the font dialog settings with my print control.My code works fine - it prints. But how do I change the code to use the font dialog settings?Here is an example of my print code:
e.Graphics.DrawString("Date and Time: " & Now.ToString, _ New Font("Courier New", 10, FontStyle.Bold), _ Brushes.Black, 10, 38)
I am trying to make a program that basicly, on the click of a button, removes a font from the windows font list (Un-installs it) Is there a way to do this using VB.NET (2010)The reason I want to do this is to make a program to remove the 'Comic Sans MC' font from all computers I use my pendrive on?
how will I set the font style and font size of my textbox in a programmatic way? Also, if possible, a code that displays the different font style on a combo box.
i am having trouble in sending text, when i send the text in textbox2 it sends into a normal way where as i selected my font as bold and size=10, i want the font which i have selected in richtextbox should display according to it if no font is selected then it can display in regular way.
I'm creating a basic text editor and I wish to include the option to change the font, font colour and background colour of the text box. Is there a way I can ask VB to display a font/font colour selection box or do I have to populate a combo box and code it all myself?
Is it possible to apply two font effects to a New Font?
Like this:
Dim fnt As Font = New Font(Me.Font.FontFamily, 10, FontStyle.Bold, FontStyle.Underline).Obviously, this is too many arguments, but what is the correct way to apply both the Bold and Underline font effects?
I'm trying to use Linq to loop through all fonts in the %windir%Fonts folder and find the one that has a property title of "Arial" (or any Font Family name supplied), but I can't seem to access the font properties (things like "Title", "Font style", "Designed for", etc.).
The following is only giving me the basic file info: Dim fontDir = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("windir") & "Fonts" Dim fontFiles = From file In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles(fontDir)
I need to search a term in pdf file to get font of all occurrences of the term with its corresponding font information and next 5 words of each occurrence.

I created a button , i have a richtextbox , i want to do this : i will right something in the richtextbox , and when i will select what i wrote and click on the button it will replace it with <font color="">something</font>. but instead it rights next of what i selected .. any clues how to replace it and not right next to it ?
i am trying to get the font from a label's text to be read into the text.. i can add the font to the label with this code:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim myfontdialog As New FontDialog With myfontdialog
[code]....
but reading it from the label and setting the font to the textbox, is the problem i am facing. i know the code does not read the font as it is displayed in the label's text, so it might be possible to just get the font name in one label, and font size in another, just by locating those two. this i have an idea how to do, just do not know how... if you have a solution on how to locate these two, and add them separately.. getting the font to the label this way, does not show the option of the selection for the font style.. i have tried using my.settings to do so, problem there as well.. basically, i want to be able to save the font selected, and next time the app loads, it loads with those those settings.

I have an application that primarily moves files from one location to another. I need to get the user's response when asked by Windows if they would like to overwrite or rename the new file because it already exists in the destination selected on the form. I basically need to receive a boolean value so i can update the transaction logs.[code]
I'm using the font "Century Gothic" as the standard for my program. I want to add the font to my install, question is not how. It comes with Microsoft Office from what I've noticed, it also came with Windows NT.
