I am using old good RichEdit control with last version of VB.NET. I want to set font attributes for text which will be typed from now and then. So, RichEdit.Font and RichEdit.SelectedFont are not an options. What should be the correct approach?

View 4 RepliesI 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:

I have a form in which their is a GroupBox control. I set the Font's Bold property to TRUE. I know that by default any other control put inside a gorupbox will inherit the Font's property settings. I have textboxes and labels in which I manually reset the Font Bold property to FALSE, however, I have a DataGridView that I did the same thing with but whenever I run the app in test mode, it reverts back to the Fonts' Bold property as TRUE rather than FALSE.
View 10 RepliesI am looping through a HTML email flyer, iterating the images in the HTML document, uploading these images to a server and then using the setattribute() method to rewrite the images to point to the server copy rather than the local copy.
All of this works fine! However, i'm then trying to write the new underlying HTML code to the same file (overwrite) and the documenttext property of the webbrowser control doesn't seem to contain my update attributes. This is strange as when right clicking each image on the web browser control itself, I can see that the new image location has been set correctly.
Do I need to somehow 'refresh' the documenttext property or something? How can I acccess the new HTML code of a web browser control after the point at which I have change some attributes of certain HTML tags?

View 3 RepliesI am working on my first VB application and have run into a problem. I am trying to loop through some data and displaying them in labels. I am using a for-each loop but end up with different row with the same labelname. What I would like to do, is to assign a number to the labelname (mylabel1, mylabel2,...), but I canīt figure out how, and I cant find anything online that will work. Here are some of the code that I have made, where I could use a solution to my problem...

this questions has be answered partially, but I can't find any full tutorial for this problem.I created my own user control (an advanced list with columns). Each column has different attributes like width, colour and text.I want to able to add this user control onto a form and select/edit the different attributes of each column. Hence, for each column in my user control (these columns are created beforehand, no columns can be added or removed from it) there should be a property in the property-menu. Each of these column-properties should be expanded (like the normal size-property in most default vb-controls that can be expanded with the little plus to show the width and height individually.What i mean by this, is: In the property-menu there should be attributes like Column1, Column2, Column3. Each of these attributes should be expanded to show the attributes like width or colour.
Currently I have different properties for different values of the same column, like Column1Wodth, Column1Colour, etc, but I want to group this under one value Column1.I think this is quite an easy solution, but forgive me, I spent more than 4 hours on google, but couldn't find a proper solution.
I have a User Control which is a customer input form.I'm working on a sales system, when generating a sale, the customer data is populated by a Javascript Auto Complete, but when loading a saved sale, I need to paste a User ID into the control programatically.

I am trying to build a tournament bracket application. In order to build the application efficiently I would like to make a user control "GameControl" that represents a game and give it attributes that represent the names of the competitors "TeamNameA" and "TeamNameB" ,an attribute "Winner" to represent which team should move on, and an attribute "NextRoundGame" that assigns another instance of the user control so that it can assign the "winner" to one of the "TeamName" attributes of the next round in the competition. If the controls were native to VB I feel like I could do it easily (I have only spent about 30 hours self teaching/tutorial following) but I can't seem to find out how to pass values to custom attributes of custom user controls through code.
View 6 Repliesis there any control that allows the font to be automatically scaled? example, i want to make the text 80% of the width and height of the control, and it must be centered.
currently im using textrenderer.measurestring repeatedly to determine the largest possible size i could have that would be within 80% of the width and height of the control, and the onpaint handlers graphics.drawstring to keep the text vertically and horizontally centered.
I need to display a table in rich text within a form window. It is only a two column table, so tabbing works fine to line everything up (since RichTextBox does not support RTF tables). However, sometimes the tab stops are incorrect because of non-fixed width fonts.
So, I need a way to measure the pixel width of a particular string with a particular font (Arial 10) and space or tab pad to make sure that everything aligns.
I know about the Graphics.MeaureString method, but since this is in a rich text box, I don't have an initilzed PaintEventArgs variable, and that would seem like overkill to create JUST to measure one string.
From MSDN:
Private Sub MeasureStringMin(ByVal e As PaintEventArgs)
' Set up string.
Dim measureString As String = "Measure String"
[Code].....
So is the best bet just to create a dummy PaintEventArgs instance? If so, what is the best way to do that (since I'll have to call this string measuring method several hundred times)?
Why does a Panel control have a Font property? What does it affect? Any controls added to the panel will have their own Font property that controls their appearance, so I don't see the point of the panel control having a Font property, especially since it has no text property.

How do you change the colour of the labels(not sure what the correct name is) in a Microsoft Chart Control in VB.
By "labels" I mean the text that is overlaid on every column in a StackedColumn chart.
You can change the Axis labels with the following:
<AxisY LineColor="Red">
<LabelStyle ForeColor="Red" />
</AxisY>
[Code].....
What is the equivalent to target the labels?
