View 10 RepliesI was just adding some neat features to my program, and now I realize that they've caused problems with my formatting features. In my program, you can bold, underline, italicize, and strikethrough the text you select. You can also change the color and font of the text. After adding in the ability to change the font of the selected text, I noticed that there was a problem when you tried highlighting the entire word, with some characters in the word having different fonts, and then formatting (bolding, underlining, etc.) the text. The error I get is[code]...
Notice how the "Ma" is in the Comic Sans MS font and that the "th" is in the Arial font. If I were to highlight this word on my program and try bolding it, the error would pop up.
I am trying to manually adjust character spacing between letters when drawing text with GDI. I am doing this by drawing each letter at a time. The problem is that you lose all the font kerning when you do this. How to get kerning data for fonts? Presumably you would send it the letter pair you want to get the offset for. Then when I draw each letter at a time I can subtract the offset for each letter pair.

and have the 8 countdown. Is there a way of having the 'Dialing In:' bit in one font size and the '8' bit in another font size?
I've googled but all I'm finding is how to set the font at runtime rather than how to have two different fonts at the same time.
I am working on a a program that uses a textbox to display data from a telescope. Normally the data is standard ASCII characters, but there is one time when the data is displayed as blocks to indicate the number of degrees to go. The textbox font is set to Sans Serif in the property box. When I show the blocks, I want to switch to Wingdings. I have searched how to change the textbox font and tried several ways found, but none of them work. I know that the textbox will handle Wingdings - I can set the font property and it displays correctly.
The most common method I have seen is: txtDisplay1.Font = New Font("Wingdings",26.0, FontStyle.Regular) ,but like all the other methods tried, the font never changes.
Our automatic crash-report system has started sending in more and more reports of this kind of crash[code]...
I was under the impression that Arial is supposed to be available everywhere on Windows, and, when a Font cannot be found windows would revert to another font+style that does exist.
What is the correct way to handle this? My app needs to define a number of standard fonts for different display elements. So far I've hardcoded Arial, Courier New, Comic Sans Serif and Times New Roman and I've been getting crash report for all of them.
I am trying to use custom fonts in my VB.NET application which are resources in my project as opposed to fonts that are installed on the system. I found a great example which works great for labels, however, I am having difficulty extending this functionality to other controls, such as listbox. I have seen other examples which get the font resource and dump it temporarily to a file, and then make reference to it, which I want to avoid. Hoe to extend this logic to other controls, such as listbox.

I have a ToolStripCombBox that loads a font selection. For whatever reason I can't get it to load the SelectedItem (even though I know it's there).It's probably something very simple, but I have been over this for days now.
