VS 2010 Gradient Color Text Tool - Strings And Numbers
Jun 11, 2011
I am making a gradient colored text tool for a game I play where they use a 3 digit number as an RGB color code before text. Making gradients by hand is tedious, as to do a gradient you type one letter at a time with an RGB code that changes by 1 in front of each letter.
example: "^090H^190e^290l^390l^490o" Would be a color gradient for Hello
I have a user input text into a text box and choose up to 6 colors. The colors then are assigned RGB values, only instead of 0-255 they are 0-9. (So they look like this 000=black 999=white 090=green, etc.)
I have figured out how to do this, but now I need to place the RGB values in front of the users text while only changing one of the RGB numbers at a time.
So if the color values are 090 and 900:
"090 190 290 390 490 590 690 790 890 990 980 970 960 950 940 930 920 910 900" is what I would like generated with the users text spaced evenly between.
I have no idea as to how I would go about putting three digit color codes between the users text or how to change the color codes one number at a time. I could try to do this on my own but it would be sloppy and probably a lot more code than needed (I have a feeling I should be using a loop or something like 'for each')... It's been awhile since I opened VB!
I have a requirement to have a button filled with a gradient colour (red to green) & can't seem to find a way to do this.I am able to draw a rectangle & do a gradient fill, however I need the buttons backcolor property to have the gradient fill rather than a rectangle on top of the button.
How can i set the backcolor of my label to the same gradient color as my menustrip? I'm trying to put a checkbox on my menustrip but i want it to have the same backcolor as the menustrip.
ive been trying to get ths workign but cant quite do it, i have a rtf field, and once the users entered the text, on the save button, i want a small function which will change the font color of certain lines. So for instance the user enters this:
I have a grid containing rows flagged with different priorities. I want to color the high priority rows red, low ones blue, etc. I'd like to set the shade based on a mathmatically calculated gradient rather than arbitrarily assigning colors to specific priorities. How can I extract a single color from a single point along gradient?
1. My program has to read text out of a text file. I use some HTML tags to preserve the formatting. For example, I might have the line "this is a <b> line </b> of <b> text </b>" where "line" and "text" are bold. How do I make it so the string prints to a RichtextBox, but only "line" and "text" are bold? I would use a RichTextbox.SaveFile method, but the program works by reading a group of richtextboxes in a flowlayoutpanel and appending them to a single text file.
2. How would I extract the text from between two strings? For instance, I have created special tags for use in my program. These tags tell the program where to add controls. Say my string was:
"[IMG= "dog.jpg" /] this is a picture of a dog. [IMG= "cat.jpg"] this is a picture of a cat."
For each occurrence of the string "[IMG=", I would need it to find the corresponding "/]" and extract the text between the two. I could maybe do something with a substring function. I don't know.
Ok, so say the string is: <a href "[URL]">abc</a> And I just want to get the text "abc" from between the <a href "[URL]"> and the </a>. How would I do so? I dont think I can use the split function, can I?
Ok so I have a 3 fields in a webBrowser that my bot will need to fill. 1st field is the City: 2nd is the Place Name: 3rd is the Street Address: Here is an example of my addresses: ~1Cafe~2 ~322 Queen st.~4 ~5Toronto~6 So for the city I will need to fill it with all the text in between ~5 and ~6. Right now this is what I have
First it might sound like an ordinary task but keep reading it isn't. I can't figure out how to find a phrase in a text file, and replace it with something else. Tried lots of things but always ending up with empty hands.
I'm developing an app for WP7 and Win7 that will get info extracted directly from particular websites. The app will download the HTML source and parse through it to find the required strings. The strings may not have tags. note multiple instances of the string needs to be found. I've tried a few very rudimentary ways, and although they work, they are extremely slow.
So I have a RichTextBox for a Chat, And I was just wonder how I can change the color of the text in the code. I know you can change the foreground color in the application its self, but I need to change the color in the code.
I am wanting to create a simple text editor that will change certain strings of characters to specific colors in two instances when they are being typed or when a file is loaded. Do I need to use a richtext box to do this and what would I need to do to accomplish this.
how can i code this?e.g : at the runtime, when i write "hello" into textbox , that text will be red color ,how to code this ?(only "hello" will be red color, other writing will not be red in text )
I need to convert numbers to words, (ex: 123 to one hundred twenty three/ 123.5 to one hundred twenty three point five.I use visual basic express 2010. I intend to create a textbox for the input and use a label to show the result. If I call the textbox "textbox1" and the label "label1", what will the code be?
I have a textbox which has a numeric value that changes - would it be possible to check if that value matches two numeric values in a text file? and if the value matches then to display some text in a label? The textfile only has fields displayed like so Horizontal 55 Vertical 16 So I would only need to check if the numeric field in textbox matches the two numbers in the second column. In the past I have use System.IO.File to create/delete/append to files but I havent come across anything like contains.
I have the code below. The code returns a string in (IntersectingPoints) for X and Y. I need X and Y values to be in single and stored in an array to deal with later.[code]...
im searching on how to change labels text color inside the code depending on my needs , for example my label's text is set to = "hello world" , can i change hello's world color to x and world's color to y?
