I can find lots of examples of rotated text on graphics objects on a Google search, but I want to create a vertical caption but with normal letter orientation, something like this:
C
A
P
T
I
O
N
but with sensible spacing and alignment. I can't seem to get my search terms right to find a suitable example. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Is it possible to change to colour of letters as they are typed.I.e
Piece of text says
"Hello World"
when user types "H". The "H" in the original would change if matched and then so on and then when "Hello" is matched it would change to another colour.
vb.net 2010 development environment, Windows XP.
My application displays a data entry screen consisting of rows and columns of text boxes and combo boxes.
Photo attached.
all the controls are created and placed on the form in code.
On a Windows XP machine (where the application is developed) all the controls line up perfectly. However, on a new Windows 7 machine, the result is as pictured in the attached photo. It seems that the combo boxes are slightly taller than the text boxes.
I have adjusted the .height property of the combo boxes, as well as text boxes, but to no avail.
Both the XP machine and the Win7 machine have different screen resolutions. Is that a possibility, and if so, is there a way to size the controls in a resolution-independent way?
I am a vb newbie having some trouble with an assignment. A user enters a letter into a text box, and the output must make the letter uppercase and tell what position the letter is at in the sentence "The quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog."
Here is my

This is what comes out: "A first occurs in position -1". Everything comes out except the position is always displayed as -1.

View 7 RepliesI'm a VB beginner.I wonder if it's possible to change the text style letter by letter?I've learned here that you can change the entire style of text like

TextBox1.Font = myStyle

View 1 RepliesWhen creating a new iTextSharp document how do I specify the page orientation? Using Dim doc As New Document(PageSize.LETTER) creates a letter size document with portrait orientation.

View 4 RepliesI came to a company that already has a fully grown project... but coders that worked here before me didn't follow conventions and didn't use parametrized SQL queries... as a result there is over 1000 places in a very huge project that can possibly be vulnerable to SQL injection...
I need to find a solution that will automatically detect if there is an SQL injection in the code. So, for example there is a form which allows user to enter comments regarding a product, which will be sent to database on submit... how can we make sure that a user didn't enter a harmfull query instead of a normal text?
Is there any advanced code/regular expression/magic that can detect if this text contains a piece of SQL query instead of normal harmless text? I will accept any links, pieces of code in any language or even commercial software that will do that for me.
I have a wrapper class created around TextBox, and I want to find out if there is any way to test if the vertical scroll bar is at the beginning (the very top) of the text box and at the very end of the text box.Alternatively, I will be happy if only I can find out a way to check if a scroll bar is enabled or not in a textbox (note: it's not a RichTextbox).
By enabled, I mean that scroll bar is actually enabled i.e. you can use the scroll bar to scroll the control, not just visible (I know we can check visibility by GetWindowLong)
Is there any possibility to make this true?I mean we can't use { } as a normal text in String.Format()
View 4 RepliesMy rich text box overflows with output during execution, thus activating a vertical scroll bar. When the program ends the created text box information disappears.I have tried a message box prior to exiting the program to stop execution but then nothing responds until the message box is A instruction doesn�t accomplish my goal either. I see nothing in the text box properties window which looks like it would do the trick and no luck with Googling for info so far.

View 10 RepliesI'm trying to find a way to have text that would be "Live" as in if a user types an incorrect phrase/letter in a text box, a message will appear prior to a "save" button being pressed. It's pretty much the same as when you're registering on these forums, it checks the availabilty of the username as you type it.

View 2 RepliesI would like to have the tabs on my TabControl displayed on the left, or sometimes right. Unlike the System.Windows.Forms.TabControl, however, I would like the text to remain horizontal instead of being rotated by 90 or 270 degrees to the horizontal. Here are a couple of pictures illustrating the concept. Though I could write code to do this myself in about an hour or two, I just thought I'd ask first if there is any existing Winforms control that implements such feature.

I'm using a vertical trackbar. I got it all set: minimum and maximum values, tickfrequency etc... and so on... everything works great. The only problem is that I would like to have the minimum value of the trackbar on the top. In horizontal trackabar you can choose the RightToLeft property to put the minimum value to the left or to the right, but how do I make it to put the minimum value on the top if I have it in vertical orientation? There has to be a way to somehow "flip" it... but how?
Here is a link to video on youtube, which show my problem. I want it to be the other way round - from top to bottom: [URL]
I have an application that makes a drawing with measurements both horisontal and vertical. I like to get the vertical measurements to be in direction down-up, not up-down direction as StringFormatFlags.DirectionVertical does. All the measuretexts are drawn to a graphics path. Because that path includes all measures at different locations I can´t TransformRotate that path, the text should be rotated before it is passed to the graphics path, or ? It would be so nice if it would be a StringFormatFlags.DirectionVerticalUp to handle it.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to use one project as a reference for writing another project, and I want to see as much code as I can from that project on another monitor. Since Code is only so wide (assuming you break-lines), I have a lot of wasted horizontal space. Is there any way in the IDE to do a vertical split of a class code window? I know you can do a horizontal split, but although that shows you two sections of code at once, it doesn't increase the amount of code you see, because it sacrifices one code's space for another.
