This may sound a daft question but how can you remove the caret from a textbox after the text has been entered without having to use the mouse to click outside the box.The reason for this is I have a textbox which when the user clicks the mouse on it a virtual keyboard allows them to enter text which is then displayed in the textbox. If the user got it wrong and wanted to reload the virtual keyboard they have to move the mouse outside the box, click and then re-enter again.
I have a login form with a background image. The image is OK during coding but not perfect when run. Now, I tried to superimpose two textboxes on it, one for username and one for password. However, unlike a normal form there is no caret in any textbox even when clicked. Though text can be entered in the textboxes, the characters are also say blurred.
I am using a virtual keyboard I have created to write text to a textbox. Before I start typing the caret is showing the current typing position and will continue to do so if I use the physical keyboard. The problem I have is as soon as I enter a character using the virtual on-screen keyboard the caret disappears and will not come back until I use the mouse to click inside the textbox. The following is the code I use for entering an 'h'
Private Sub H_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles H.Click If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists(Application.StartupPath & "Click.WAV") Then My.Computer.Audio.Play(Application.StartupPath & "Click.WAV")

I'm creating a new windows form application based on an existing AS400 application (don't ask).Now the users are used to have a fat, white, blinking caret all over the place, so the first thing they mentioned when they saw my initial release was "where did the cursor go?" "We don't know which field we're filling in"
I tried to explain that there is in fact a cursor inside the textboxes (and that it is called a caret), but they want their big, fat cursor back.After some searching on the internet, combining snippets, I managed to make the caret look like I want (in fact you can use any bitmap image as a caret as long as you invert the colours).Now this seems to work like a charm for textboxes but they want the same caret when they edit a cell of a datagridview (who could have guessed)
I have console application embedded in a Panel on my Form. The problem is that the Vertical scrollbar of this application always stays at the top, and I would prefer that I was always able to see the caret (prompt) so I can see the latest info.
How do you force a Window to display the caret?
Do solutions give the option of the caret being at the top of the window or the bottom? I would prefer that the carat is at the bottom so I can see all the info immediately prior to the caret, as in this screenshot.
In a .NET 3.5 application, i want to get caret position in a RichTextBox control. The RTB is not XAML. Also, the RTB doesn't have CaretPosition property as described here: [URL] What is the simplest way using which i can get the caret position?
EDIT:To be more specific i want to find out what is the position of the caret from the start of the line on which it is positioned. I can get the line number by using GetLineFromCharIndex(rtb.SelectionStart) but not the offset from the start of the line.
