I'm trying to change the font size of a GroupBox caption (text). The problem is that if I change it, all the controls inside the box are changed accordingly. I want to change only the GroupBox font size. How to do it?
View 2 RepliesI want to have some labels on a form with the same font color as the caption on my group boxes, and furthermore I want these colors to change if the user has applied a different Theme on their system.
Can I do this without changing the GroupBox caption from its default?[code]...

View 1 RepliesI have a DataGridView and I want to put it into a GroupBox. In VB6 it looked like this:So it is just a MsFlexGrid wrapped by a GroupBox. I've absolutely no idea, how to implement that in VB.NET.
I'd let it inherit from DataGridView, so it is a Control, and it has every Property of the DataGridView by default.Public Class CaptionedDataGridView Inherits DataGridView
There would also have to be a GroupBox:Private xGroupBox as GroupBox
The text property would be overrided by the text of the group box as well as some size and placement properties (Top, Left, Width, Height)Public Overrides Property Text As String

Finally, if I'd create a new CaptionedDataGridView somewhere it should draw itself with the GroupBox sorrounded. How do I get from where I am right now to where I want to be?
I'm trying to figure out how to change the font in a RichTextBox without having to select the text I want to change first. I know I can select text and change it like this:
RichTextBox1.SelectionStart = RichTextBox1.Find("working")
Dim tfont As New Font("Arial", 16, FontStyle.Regular)
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = tfont
What I want to do is set a font and then any text added to the richtextbox will use that font. Then I want to set another font and all text after that point will use that font and so on. I'm adding text to the RichTextBox with code, but I'd eventually like to add a RichTexBox to an app where the user enters the text and can change fonts like a word processor.What I'm try to accomplish would go something like this:
' Set the font for the header here
rtbPrint.Text = rtbPrint.Text & mHeader & vbCrLf
'Set the font for the body here
rtbPrint.Text = rtbPrint.Text & mBody & vbCrLf

View 1 RepliesIn runtime I'm programmatically changing the forecolor to all label and radiobutton controls placed in the groupbox.
The only thing missing is to set the groupbox text/caption forecolor, but as soon as I do so programatically all controls in the groupbox inherits the font type and color making the text hard to read on the Button controls placed within the groupbox.
