Adjust Report Field Height At Runtime?
Aug 7, 2011I'd like to adjust Report field height at run time.In the 2nd image, at the 3rd and 4th row of "Wine" column, if the data length is enough for a line, I'd like to adjust its height into a line (And also bottom line object be followed by it). Otherwise, let it be two lines. Please share me which property I'd set.
PS: In page header, I use box object. But in Details section, I just use line object because in report footer, I need to show Total amount. If I use a box in these three sections, there is the box is expanded the whole page without having detail rows at the last page.

Aug 5, 2011I'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;

VS 2010 Button To Toggle Between Bold/regular Font In A Rich Text Box
Oct 1, 2011I 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.

Change Font Size Of Label During Runtime
Aug 23, 2009I have a form with some labels. If the labels equal certain text, then I want the font size of the label to change.For example, if the text reads "apple",I want the font size of the label to be 16.If the text reads "banana", I want the font size of the label to be 8.This has to occur during runtime without any clicking of the label.I have an idea of the code I want to write in order for this to work, but I need to know where to put the code for the labels.I cannot put this under Label_Click or Form_Load.Where can I put this code so that it works for the labels during runtime?
View 2 RepliesCompose And Apply A Font To A Label In Runtime?
Aug 29, 2009I'm developing a Windows Forms Application in Visual Basic .NET with Visual Studio 2008.
I'm trying to compose fonts (Family name, font size, and the styles) at runtime, based on user preferences, and apply them to labels.
For the sake of both a simplier user interface, and compatibility between more than one machine requiring to use the same font, I'll NOT use the InstalledFontCollection, but a set of buttons that will set few selected fonts, that I know to be present in all machines (fonts like Verdana).
So, I have to make a Public Sub on a Module that will create fonts, but I don't know how to code that. There are also four CheckBoxes that set the styles, Bold, Italic, Underline and Strikeout.
How should I code this? The SomeLabel.Font.Bold property is readonly, and there seems to be a problem when converting a string like "Times New Roman" to a FontFamily type. (It just says it could not do it)
Like on
Dim NewFontFamily As FontFamily = "Times New Roman"

Identify Subtriangle Within A Rectangle Given A Coordinate In That Rectangle?
Feb 22, 2010Given a rectangle of width w and height h. and a coordinate x,y in that rectangle I would like to identify which triangle I am within.
i.e. the function should take parameters(x,y) and return a,b,c,d or a zero based number representing that triangle index i.e. (0=A,1=B,2=C,3=D) if they are in that order.
I think this would be something like >= the formula of the red line and >= the formula of the green line?

Compare Each New (small) Overhead Map Section To Larger Map / Find What Edge It Fits On And Copy It Over
Mar 6, 2009I am working on a program to match overlapping images together to make one complete image. This isn't for panoramic purposes, it is from a video game generated overhead map, so there is no perspective issues to deal with and the overlapping images (gained from screenshots while a player moves) should be pixel perfect (still running tests to verify this, but lets assume they are pixel perfect at this time).
1) I need to compare each new (small) overhead map section to the larger map, find what edge it fits on, and copy it over.On other forums I have seen people suggest taking the bitmap apart in the form of an array of colors, or 3 arrays per image for r, g, and b. I am wondering why this is done instead of directly going to the bitmap object and using GetPixel. Is an Array lookup significantly faster? Speed would be an issue with my program, I would like to do this match as fast as possible, and the overall map could become large, even if I keep making new map sections to manually paste together later.So, faster to loop through a graphic with getpixel, or faster to go through 3 two-dimensional arrays with r, g, and b, or faster to go through 1 three-dimensional array with rgb all inside it?
2) The bitmap object that contains the overall map will keep getting larger. What is the best way to resize that bitmap dynamically?I am thinking of just making a new, larger bitmap when I get near an edge, then using getpixel and setpixel to copy over the old bitmap to the new one. Is there a faster way to make a new, larger bitmap object containing the old one with the graphics class? I admit to finding the graphics class somewhat confusing in how methods on it affect the image object that is defined as it's surface...or something. There might be a faster way with graphics and drawimage, but is that really faster than a getpixel/setpixel loop? Finally, if I do store the graphics data in arrays instead of actual bitmap objects, would redimming the array be the best way? If I need more room at the 'beginning' of the array I would have to make a new array and then copy the data over shifted. And this might involve 3 arrays if it is best to use one each for r, g, b.

VS 2008 Text Clipping Itself Rather Than Exceeding Rectangle?
Apr 6, 2009I've drawing text to a rectangle, say for example "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123456789",That should be centered (which it is), but be on one line, not clipped like this:
"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQR
STUVWXYZ123456789"
my String Format is:
With sfFormat
.Alignment = StringAlignment.Center
.LineAlignment = StringAlignment.Center
.Trimming = StringTrimming.Character
.FormatFlags = StringFormatFlags.NoClip
End With
It doesn't even have to trim it, like I have in my code, but it won't even stay on one line.
