View 3 Replieshow will I set the font style and font size of my textbox in a programmatic way? Also, if possible, a code that displays the different font style on a combo box.
View 3 RepliesI'm having trouble adjusting the font style in a RichTextBox and I've seen a few different approaches that talk about single attributes (like toggling bold on and off)... but I'm trying to make it so that my font class can adjust any attribute (bold, italic, underline).
I realize that Font.Style is a set of Boolean flags (a bitfield?)... but I'm not sure how to handle the attributes all at once.
Here is the troublesome code:
Public Sub ModifyFontStyle(Optional ByVal Plain As Object = Nothing, Optional ByVal Bold As Object = Nothing, _
Optional ByVal Italics As Object = Nothing, Optional ByVal Underlined As Object = Nothing)
[Code]....
What is happening to the font? The text should be underlined and in italics not strikethrough...
Is this a logic error or a simple misunderstanding on my part?
this code does the change, but I noticed a little unwanted effect.if you have some text mark up for esample 24pt, selected. and run this code. you will lose the mark up.
Private Sub Styles_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnBold.Click, BtnItalic.Click, BtnUnderline.Click, BtnStrikeOut.Click
Static styleValue As Integer = 0 Const bold As Integer = 1, Italic As Integer = 2, UnderLine As Integer = 4, StrikeOut As Integer = 8 'Since more than 1 button is attached to this event, the if statement will sort out what button was pressed to fire this event If TypeOf (sender) Is Button Then

View 4 RepliesI've got a richtextbox control on a form and a menustripitem that allows me to change the font style. What I want to be able to do is to allow the user to type text into the richtextbox control; then if they change the font style using the menu only for newly entered text to change font, and any previously typed text to stay in the previously selected font. The problem I'm getting is that all of the entered text's font style is changed.

View 2 RepliesHow to change the font size, style and color of the selected text in a regular textbox? not richtextbox.
View 5 RepliesI have a button which reads a comma separated value file and loads it into a richtextbox. Each line contains comma separated chars.
Once the file is loaded in the richtextbox, i want to be able to select specific values from each line and store them into an array.
For example:
Line1: a,b,c,d,e
I want to be able to place only the values "b" and "c" into an array.
I was thinking something like creating a menu for the richtextbox which will be triggered on right click, then highlight the values I want, press right click and select 'place these values in an array'.
it doesn't have to be the way i proposed it, but it definitely must use a richtextbox.
"This is a test . This is the second test . This is the third test . This is the final test"I know how to do this using SelectionStart etc. However this limits what I want to domagine that the 4 sentences are stored in an array, where array(0) should be always bold,array(1) italic, array(2) underline and array(3) normal.
View 4 RepliesI have created a page where I can toggle the richtextbox's fontstyle between bold/italic/underline. This works flawlessly. However, when I assign it more than one font style I do not know how to tell which ones it has through code. For instance if I bold something I can simply check richtextbox.SelectionFont.Bold but what about if it is bold and italic?

I have created an instance of a Rich Text Box:
Dim RichText As New RichTextBox()
I was able to write to it using:
RichText.AppendText("Text")
I was able to save the document to a file:
RichText.SaveFile("C:TempRTDoc1.rtf")
What I cannot find is how to set the font, and font size. IntelliSense doesn't help. Everything is "read only", meaning retrieve a current value.
I am trying to add formatted text to a rich text box...
For instance, I want to add a heading as bold ("HEADING: ") and some data after it as regular ("REGULAR Data")...
I'd like to have a couple functions to perform the action.
When I use the below functions to add txt to a single rtf box, I get lines in either all bold or all regular. It doesn't seem to keep the font formatting after it adds text..
Public Function AddRegtxt(ByVal RTC As RichTextBox, ByVal Txt2Send As String)
With RTC
.SelectionStart = Len(.Text)

How do I search for the words with the same font size (e.g. 15) in a rich text box and put the words into a list box? For example, consider a dictionary whose word entries are of size 15 and the rests are of 12. So how do I put all word entries into a list box and then the description (of size 12) in another list box. I am using visual basic 2010. I've tried regex but couldn't find a way of specifying the font size.Consider the bold letters of size 15 and the rests of 12.[code](physics) hypothetical truly fundamental particle in mesons and baryons; there are supposed to be six flavors of quarks (and their antiquarks), which come in pairs; each has an electric charge of +2/3 or -1/3
