My code editing program, with text colouring and lots more, is almost finished. It uses a rich text box to edit in.On the right is a listbox, called the "suggestion box" The suggestion listbox is kinda large and eats up lots of valuable edit space How can I display my "suggestion listbox" control underneath the caret, like in Visual Basic?

I have created a custom control in one VS project. Once tested and built, I then copied the object over to a structured class library type project I hope to use as a code repository for these kind of things. To ensure I can get to the control, I created a test project and added this repository dll as a reference. The problem is that I cannot see the custom control in the toolbox.
Is there an attribute or something I should've used in the repository dll in order for this to happen?
My objective is to create a custom namespace in this repository dll so that any custom objects or controls can be referenced in various other applications without having to copy the objects to each. I know my reference is good as I can create the control in code. I would just like to see it show up in the toolbox!
I would like to set the tool tip of a button on a ToolTip control , but I would like it to do it by code during run time , not during design time . Is it possible ?
View 4 Replieseven Word Pad, when you scroll your Caret (the I-beam for browsing through text) through the text, in the font combobox, the font of the text you are browsing through will be displayed, and when you scroll your caret through a different font, the font will be changed. If you're confused, look at attatched picture.
I cannot seem to find a caret position changed event on the normal richtextbox control - and if anyone can show me a custom component with this it would help me a huge amount.So my basic question is how can i replicate the formentioned function in my own VB.NET program.No code is necessary just constructive suggestions, or links to other projects would be welcome.

I'm trying to display a list of "bank transactions" (these are fake, it's a game) so no need to worry about security but what tool should I use? I've use a Grid view for other parts of the game and don't want to "overuse" this tool.The list may have 2 rows it may have 30 rows although I might limit this? It will need to be able to use a date, a text reason and a value.

blah blha

blah blha
nannaNewData
nahei8
crap
more crap
How can I place the caret next to NewData?

I have a project with Control arrays that include over 200 controls.
I could use Tipster to define a Tool Tip or I could assign a Handler for the MouseHover event & use the handler to provide a help remark.
Would the Tipster approach result in the use of more memory/code than the MouseHover approach to this job?
I created Dataentry forms. In the form there are so many controls like DropDowns and textboxes. I am using Access database. Now I enterd the few records into the controls, and these records are saved into the Database. But now if i enter the any data which i recently saved in the database to the textbox or any other control then the remaining controls should be display the related data.
For example i have 4 controls in my form one is dropdown and 3 are textboxes. If i select the data in the dropdown then the remaining 3 textboxes shows the related data. How can i dispaly the corresponding data to the other controls?

View 2 RepliesI'm creating a new windows form application based on an existing AS400 application (don't ask).Now the users are used to have a fat, white, blinking caret all over the place, so the first thing they mentioned when they saw my initial release was "where did the cursor go?" "We don't know which field we're filling in"
I tried to explain that there is in fact a cursor inside the textboxes (and that it is called a caret), but they want their big, fat cursor back.After some searching on the internet, combining snippets, I managed to make the caret look like I want (in fact you can use any bitmap image as a caret as long as you invert the colours).Now this seems to work like a charm for textboxes but they want the same caret when they edit a cell of a datagridview (who could have guessed)

I have console application embedded in a Panel on my Form. The problem is that the Vertical scrollbar of this application always stays at the top, and I would prefer that I was always able to see the caret (prompt) so I can see the latest info.
How do you force a Window to display the caret?
Do solutions give the option of the caret being at the top of the window or the bottom? I would prefer that the carat is at the bottom so I can see all the info immediately prior to the caret, as in this screenshot.
In a .NET 3.5 application, i want to get caret position in a RichTextBox control. The RTB is not XAML. Also, the RTB doesn't have CaretPosition property as described here: [URL] What is the simplest way using which i can get the caret position?
EDIT:To be more specific i want to find out what is the position of the caret from the start of the line on which it is positioned. I can get the line number by using GetLineFromCharIndex(rtb.SelectionStart) but not the offset from the start of the line.
I've searched the web for an answer, but i was not able to find a way to hide the caret of a RichTextBox in VB.NET.I've tried to set the RichTextBox.Enabled property to False and then change the background color and foreground color to non-grey ones but that did not do the trick.
View 6 RepliesThis may sound a daft question but how can you remove the caret from a textbox after the text has been entered without having to use the mouse to click outside the box.The reason for this is I have a textbox which when the user clicks the mouse on it a virtual keyboard allows them to enter text which is then displayed in the textbox. If the user got it wrong and wanted to reload the virtual keyboard they have to move the mouse outside the box, click and then re-enter again.
