I got two combo boxes, one has numbers from 1-75 and the other one has all system fonts. I have a richtextbox as well. I basically want the user to be able to choose the font and font size from the combo box and then apply to the richtextbox. However I want about two functions. If the user has highlighted selected text then changes should only be applied to the highlighted text, if the user has not highlighted an item but changes fonts or font size, then the changes should be made to the next characters inputed. How can I do this?
I am building a word pad clone with extra a few extra features. I am trying to get two combo boxes (one with font names, the other with font sizes) to apply their selected attribute to the selected text in a richtextbox. This was my latest attempt, and I think I'm starting to get close, but I still get an error for InvalidCastException - Conversion from string "" to type 'Integer' is not valid.
I am having trouble with the fonts on a richtextbox control what I need is to do the following; *Selected Text Within 1.Bold* 2.Italic* 3.Underline* 4.Strikeout* 5.Font up 1 such as from 10 button clicked then 12* 6.Font down Vice versa of 5* 7.Printing text in the RTB
when I try to print from my richtextbox it's not printing what I have typed in. I want to be able to print the image that it shows. So if I type in Hello World it will print out Hello World. This goes for color too. A

i want to change to font size in richtextbox using a combo box its easy to change the font size if we have one font in our selection text using this code.
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = New Font(SelectionFont.FontFamily, CInt(ToolStripComboBox3.Text), RichTextBox1.SelectionFont.Style)
But if we have multiple fonts in our selection it dose not work. i have another code to solve this problem. But the only problem with this code it is good for less then 2000 chracters but when the selection text is large it is worthless. code is below.
iam using this code to change the font in a richtextbox it's work if user select a single font if there are multiple fonts, and font sizes it dosenot work
I want to make a wordpad i want to put a combobox with all the fonts the user have but i google it and didn't found anything (maybe i wrote a bad keyword)
I have a RichTextBox with an OnChanged event. The OnChanged event should look at each line in the RichTextBox and if the line is of prime length colour it red, otherwise colour it black. How do I do this? I think it is possible to select from index a to index b and set selection colour, but I think this will lose my cursor position.
i've a question: in a form i've a combobox that inside it are lots of names, and beside it i've a RichTextBox with a text that is generated when i click a button in this same form...using a phrase to examplify the text that i'm talking about, "soccer is the best sport in the world" and inside the combobox i've "soccer/football/golf/tennis" then i would like to know what code i should use to the same text that was generated, substituting only one word, and that word must be the word contained in the corresponding combobox...
example: in RichTextBox i've "soccer is the best sport in the world", then i pick in the combobox the world "tennis", i want a code that after i click the button, transform this phrase to "tennis is the best sport in the world".
I am using a dataset on the server, in this dataset I have a datatable that calls a stored procedure and returns column names from three tables. I call this stored procedure using a web service.i manage to show all the column names in my combobox but when I want to click a button and insert selected column name into a richtextbox I get System.Data.DataRowView in the textbox instead.
My code:
'the combobox 'if I don't have this textblock all the values are shown vertical instead of the normal horizontal lines 'the stored procedure SELECT COLUMN_NAME

I have two drop down lists(DropFont,DropFontSize) and a textbox(txtSample) one for font name and the other for font size and now if I select the font name from the drop down list the text in the text box should change with the desired font name and size.But when I change some fonts it gives me error stating that the font dosen't support "Regular".
So I have been trying to modify as shown below but now it gives me error that font property is read-only.

I am struggling with this issue, which is probably something simple. How do you change the font style and font size while a VB application is running? I want to to be able to choose a different font and size based on choices from the ToolStripComboBoxe(s).
I 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.
