I'm having trouble getting an naero glass code which works properly. I hav ecome across many in which anything black becomes aero aswell. Is it possible to have the black text unaffected by the aero like, change it so that another colour becomes aero instead?Also this is just an extra but can you change the colour of the aero you have? Like default is blue change you change it to like yellow, or black or another colour?

I have a combobox on a form with the dropdownstyle set to drop down. Users can either salect a value from the list, or type in any value they wish. This all works fine. However, when one particular item in the list is selected I wish to set a different value. Unfortunately I don't appear to be able to set the combobox Text property from within any of the events that fire when the selected item is changed.

I'm Making a Simple syntax highlighter and I'm Doing the highlighting in the text Changed event of a RTB and for obvious reasons I can't re highlight the whole document each time someone presses a key so i highlight one line each time the text changes. But this creates a Problem. If someone pastes code into the RichTextBox It only highlights the last Line. So is there a way to get if the user typed the text in with his keyboard or pasted it from the clipboard in the text Changed event?

I am making a Hangman Game.
1. How do I change the colour of the text I am entering. i.e. if the letter entered by the user IS in the word, then I want to make that text appear green in the other textbox, "guessed letters"
2. I also want to know how to mask and unmask certain characters at will. i.e. when the user guesses a letter, the program checks to see if the character is in the predefined word. If it is, then I want it to unmask that letter on the label, "Word Label". I also want the program to start with the word already masked.
3. How do I take a random word from a text file for the user to guess?. I have a text file with all the words of the dictionary on a new line.
Here's the mediafire link to my project: [URL]. (The dictionary text file is included)

I am trying to make the application similar to Notepad++. Notepad++ colours text depending on what type they are, eg. HTML, PHP, CSS, Java, ect.
I just wondered if somebody might be able to help with this? I have no clue where to start, but I have an idea of how it would happen.
- Text is entered into the RTB (RichTextBox)
- The text is read by the program as it's entered
- The text is coloured depending on the type

I have been experimenting with my windows form application(vb 2008/10) and made sure that the top part(glass part) extended to become a bit larger.Now 1 problem occurs. Everything, like text, which is black, will become transparent so unreadable. With labels and pictures, I solved the problem, I just write a string(e.graphics.drawstring) and for labels / titles I use a long method(not important). But now the problem comes

I am overlaying a staff members ID number over their photo using drawstring.
As the image can vary from dark to light no one text colour can assure that the text will be readable.
Is there an easy way to invert the text colour pixel by pixel based on the colour of the image pixel the text will be drawn onto.

I have a button (btnAdd) that adds the content of a textbox (txtName) to a textblock (lblName). I want to add a date to the textblock when btnAdd is pressed but I want it to be a different font size and colour. So far my code looks like
lblName.Text = txtName.Text " " + DateTime.Now
I only want DateTime.Now to be a different size and colour. Is this possible? Instead of a label I need to display it in a listBox. My new code:
listBox1.Items.Add(txtName.Text " " + DateTime.Now)
