I have a button (btnAdd) that adds the content of a textbox (txtName) to a textblock (lblName). I want to add a date to the textblock when btnAdd is pressed but I want it to be a different font size and colour. So far my code looks like
lblName.Text = txtName.Text " " + DateTime.Now
I only want DateTime.Now to be a different size and colour. Is this possible? Instead of a label I need to display it in a listBox. My new code:
listBox1.Items.Add(txtName.Text " " + DateTime.Now)

I'm working on a document editor and I want the user to be able to change the font of a selected text. I have imported the rich text box control from the options menu and place it into my form. I have a list box containing the names of the fonts and when the user selects a item, it changes the richbox's current selected text.
This is the code so far;
Private Sub tmrtextfont_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tmrtextsize.Tick
If lstbxfont.SelectedIndex = 0 Then

First I am using 'Microsoft Visual Studio 2010' and am making a 'windoms forms application'. I am wishing to implement a way of changing the text colour through out the whole application. I have managed to put on a customisable background using
Quote:
CODE:
I know I'll have to change the 'BackColor' bit but I don't know what to. Is there something that turns all text on the form one colour or do I have to do it label by label?
Also I am can't figure out how to rotate labels to display text at a 60 degree angle (to display along the edge of an equilateral triangle) And for the triangle I have drawn it using lines which move independently from each other, is there anyway to 'group' these lines together so they are fixed.

Is there any way to change the default colour to the highlight when a listview row is selected? Apparently the default blue colour causes some problems for some users who have some visual eyesight problems. They didn't tell me what colour they wanted but they did indicated the blue is annoying.

I'm looking for a way to change the font colour on alternate rows within a datagrid. e.g. normal row would be green and the alternate row would be blue. I can change either by using
me.datagrid.Styles.Row.Forcolour
me.datagrid.Styles.AlternatingRow.Forcolour
The problem is that I am having trouble using both of them together as I need to manipulate both colours. I have created a HtmlRowPrepared event and have been setting them there, however, If I set the Row.Forcolour first, it will over ride the AlternatingRow.Forcolour and vice versa. This needs to be done via SEVER SIDE code only as the colour choices are held in the database.

I am currently working on a VB.NET project and the hardest thing that I am having trouble with is that everything is black and blue. Having worked a lot with C#, I really like the way that types are colored differently.
I have tried going in and having a look at the "Tools > Options > Fonts and Colors" and the various "User Types" under "Display Items" is set to a different colour but its not reflecting that colour in the text editor.

I am making a diary Form in VB.NET to do this I am using a listview with two columns.
Column 1 consists of a list of time and column 2 is the description
Can I change the colour of certain cells in column 2 only. So when I read in the data from the database it reads in the description and then puts the data in the relevant time slot but I want the recent cells of the description column to be a different colour.

I have a treeview and if I click on another control the hightlight disappears so I set the HideSelection to false and now the highlight row changes to a really light gray. Is there a way to have it still as dark blue. The reason being is because the user is clicking on a row in a grid and dropping it on the treeview and I need it to be clear that it will add it to the selected node which needs to be clear.

The following code records the row and column of a selected cell.
[code]...
.
If MonthDGV.Rows(selectedRowIndices(0)).Cells(selectedColumnIndices(2)).Style.BackColor = Color.White Then but that is no use. As there could numerous selected cells all over the place, how would I check the BackColor of all the selected cells.

To .NET after getting tired of using VB6 due to the lack of functionality. I'm trying to create a log on method for a system which will involve users selecting a colour from a paint panel and then placing/drawing the colour in 1 or more tiles of a grid, basically a 3x3 grid in which for example they selected the blue colour and drew in the top left tile and the bottom left tile. The logon is selecting the correct colour and placing the colour in the appropriate tile. What i want them to be able to do is place even a single pixel of colour so it has a high accuracy. So far i have a timer which loops from the width of the grid to the height of the grid.
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
Dim BMP As New Drawing.Bitmap(1, 1)
Dim GFX As System.Drawing.Graphics = System.Drawing.Graphics.FromImage(BMP)
GFX.CopyFromScreen(New Drawing.Point(MousePosition.X, MousePosition.Y), _
[CODE]...
To start with i have just hard coded the colour i want it to detect. At present it produces an error. Parameter must be positive and < Width the error is on System.Drawing.Point(i,j). If i place the mouse over the colour then run the program it will say it has been found, but otherwise it wont find the colour. I believe i am not updating the location of the pixel or something to that effect.

I'd like to replace all the white pixels in a bitmap image with pixels of the colour "Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.MenuHighlight)". Is there some method in the Image, Bitmap or Graphics classes I can use, or will I simply have to inspect each pixel in the image with GetPixel, check whether it is a white pixel, and then set it with SetPixel?Here is the code I am using now:
Private Shared Sub highlight(ByVal b As Bitmap)
Dim highlightColour As Color = Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.MenuHighlight)
Dim whiteARGB As Long = Color.White.ToArgb

When I select a row from my gridview by clicking on a linkbutton called 'Modify' and is the last cell in the row. Using the code below I can retrieve the key value from within the GridView1_RowCommand sub and move to the modify screen with the correct data.
Dim r As Integer = e.CommandArgument
GridView1.SelectedIndex = r
Dim Company As String = GridView1.SelectedDataKey(0).ToString

When I try to access the first row it returns the first row value from the original Gridview and not from the re-ordered one.

I am making a Hangman Game.
1. How do I change the colour of the text I am entering. i.e. if the letter entered by the user IS in the word, then I want to make that text appear green in the other textbox, "guessed letters"
2. I also want to know how to mask and unmask certain characters at will. i.e. when the user guesses a letter, the program checks to see if the character is in the predefined word. If it is, then I want it to unmask that letter on the label, "Word Label". I also want the program to start with the word already masked.
3. How do I take a random word from a text file for the user to guess?. I have a text file with all the words of the dictionary on a new line.
Here's the mediafire link to my project: [URL]. (The dictionary text file is included)
