When you add a label from the the toolbox, the default font is always Microsoft Sans Serif, Regular, 8. I like to use Ariel as my font of choice. Is there a way to change the default font setting so I don't have to pick the font I want every time? I've looked under Tools->Options->Environment->Fonts and Colors and I can't find it there.

View 5 Repliesi am trying to get the font from a label's text to be read into the text.. i can add the font to the label with this code:

but reading it from the label and setting the font to the textbox, is the problem i am facing. i know the code does not read the font as it is displayed in the label's text, so it might be possible to just get the font name in one label, and font size in another, just by locating those two. this i have an idea how to do, just do not know how... if you have a solution on how to locate these two, and add them separately.. getting the font to the label this way, does not show the option of the selection for the font style.. i have tried using my.settings to do so, problem there as well.. basically, i want to be able to save the font selected, and next time the app loads, it loads with those those settings.

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
