View 3 RepliesI'm Making a Simple syntax highlighter and I'm Doing the highlighting in the text Changed event of a RTB and for obvious reasons I can't re highlight the whole document each time someone presses a key so i highlight one line each time the text changes. But this creates a Problem. If someone pastes code into the RichTextBox It only highlights the last Line. So is there a way to get if the user typed the text in with his keyboard or pasted it from the clipboard in the text Changed event?
View 6 RepliesI've been wanting to create a look like the attached jpeg Ive been looking around for a few hours for a solution to make text boxes transparent or have a background image. I've found a few projects on this form and elsewhere which include transparent text boxes, but every time I try to use it the way I need to--with the text box over a picture box--there are always various rendering errors. Most of the time, the text box is transparent if its just placed on the form (not over any other controls). But when I place them over other controls (like picture boxes), the 'transparent background' always take on the color of the form background.
This is one that I was trying to use. I found a few others around, but they all had the same render errors more or less.[URL]...I figured transparency or background images would have been supported natively. Anyone have any ideas? Maybe I missed something in my searches. I didn't really see anything which adds background images in text boxes (rich or otherwise). At this point, I'd just like anything that works, so it doesn't really need to have transparency--just a simple background image would be great.
I am unable to load rich text files into my rich text box. It worked fine yesterday, would there have been anything I could have changed by accident?
With OpenFileDialog
.Filter = "Text format (*.txt)|*.txt|Rich Text Format (*.rtf)|*.rtf|All files (*.*)|*.*"

but I am getting the error File format is not valid when i attempt to open any Rich Text file
I've been tried to make a richtextbox which could read smiles. Everything was fine, ieplaced "" To smile from resources. But why when i changing richtextbox to readonly, it can't replace "" to smile from resources? Maybe there is another way to make richtextbox not editable (readonly) ?
View 3 RepliesIn a program I'm planning to generate reports which I'll display using the rich text boxBesides rich text, i want to put images into the rtb. I've looked up how to put images into rtbs and the only way that i can find seems to be by pasting them from the clipboardThis method works well with setting bitmaps to the clipboard but i run into a problem when i try to set a metafile to the clipboard (the report contains plots and metafiles are perfect for that kind of thing). So if there could be another way of inserting a metafile into a rtb or maybe a way to write a rtf file with a metafile in it, that would be great.

View 3 RepliesI have a rich text box which I use in order the user is able to add pictures, coloured writing, different font etc... however I need to load specific text in the rich text box when the user load the Form.how I can add (I guess) the HTML to load this every time the user load the form.
P.S the text will change depending on who loads the form so I can not do a simple
RichTextBox1.LoadFile("C:Documents and SettingsDesktopSigniture.rtf")
I have a rich text box ('RichTextBox1') and a button ('BoldButton'), and have it set up so that whenever the user highlights some text in the box and clicks the bold button, that text becomes bold. That much I've figured out...
Public Class Form1
Private Sub BoldButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BoldButton.Click
Dim Bold As New Font(RichTextBox1.Font, FontStyle.Bold)
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = Bold
End Sub
End Class
But I'd also like to add the ability that if the user highlights text that is already bolded, then clicks the bold button, that text will go back to 'regular' font. In other words, I'd like the 'bold' button to be able to toggle between bold and regular font.
On the main form of my application, I have a Rich Text Box which is where the user will be entering information. The text is black. then, i have a button which calls the dialogue "Notes" A dialogue appears, with a rich text box. the user should then be able to enter text into the box, click "OK", and the text entered into the Notes dialogue be inserted to the rich text box on the main form -- with the font colour "Red". The rest of the text in the main rich text box on the main form should remain black.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to convert text inputed in a text box to unicode. I need to the program to process each letter and return "the letter = the unicode" in the label.
For example, if the user enters "apple" the lable would read: a=65 p=80 p=80 l=76 e=69
I know the AscW command will return the Unicode Integer but I only know how to do the conversion for single letters
The code below only processes the first letter and only returns the code, not "the letter = the code"
Private Sub btnCode_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCode.Click

View 2 Replieseveryone! I've been at this for a while, and I'm not sure how this issue can be resolved:I'm working on a project in VB.Net, and I have a form with a rich text box. I have a groupbox with 4 radio buttons inside that are intended to change the font color of the text. Coincidentally, I have to repeat this same functionality for a 2nd set of radio buttons that would change the text font family.
At any rate what I've only been able to do is the following to successfully change the font color of whatever text I highlight in the rich text box:
Private Sub rbtnBlack_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles rbtnBlack.CheckedChanged
rtbxTextEditor.SelectionColor = Color.Black
End Sub
Private Sub rbtnRed_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles rbtnRed.CheckedChanged

Is there a way that I could write a sub (I'm assuming I would use a sub, since I don't think I need to return anything, thus eliminating the use of a function) that would handle the action of changing the selected text color in the rich text box without having to use a separate sub for each radio button? Mind you, per my teacher's specs, she doesn't use a button handler for any of this.
is it possible to make first 60 characters in a rich text box a different color than the remaining text?

What is the source code to display Unicode text in a textbox?
I basically know how to display ASCII code in a text box, but I'd like to be able to display Unicode in a text box.
I ran across my first unicode data, and I am not sure what to do with it. I read the unicode text from a binary file using the ReadBytes method, because ReadChars threw an exception when it tried it. Well, long story short, I have found a way to work with the data, I can convert it using a small Function I wrote, which goes something like this: [Code] And this works wonderfully. It just throws away anything not in the ASCII range, including the BOM at the start of the unicode data.
But I would guess that this method is not very universal and probably not the best way. Are there any VB functions available to do this sort of thing? I was able to find something called Text.Encoding, but there didn't seem to be a reverse of that not that I found anyhow. Any ideas?
I will show 3 columns of text in rich text box. i want show the column border with color.i can separate the texts with tabs or spaces but showing data in columns and cells will improve the visual of my program .
View 1 RepliesOkay, so what I want to do is directly output formatted RTF text to a Rich Text Box control in VB.NET. I don't want to find the text, select it and color it as it is not practical for what I'm doing. I've tried outputting RTF code but that isn't working either. Can I actually do this or will I have to write a dll?

Also, i am trying to print the resaults to a rich text box such as if rundll32.exe is missing put in the box "rundll32.exe is missing". How do I allow it to write it in the box, I tried the print command, but it didn't work.
