View 1 RepliesI have an application that allows the user to define text in a rich textbox. I would like to give the user the ability to define text for one or more languages. I don't think this will be a problem using the rich textbox as it allows for unicode characters and DBCS (please let me know if this is incorrect). My question is, I display this text throughout the app in other controls as well, such as a listbox, label, etc. by acquiring the RTF's Text property (plain text). Are there problems with other controls displaying unicode/DBCS characters? I realize that I may have to toggle the font of the control in question depending on the language (I will allow the user to specify a default font per language).

I am trying to open up a text file that contains some text. I have 3 text boxes on my screen. What I need to figure out is how to replace multiple words (1 in each textbox) with text it finds in the txt file.
I can do this by using the single find / replace feature but I'm trying to be able to fill out the 3 textboxes and then click my find / replace button to have my Regex find each predefined word and replace it with what is in the text boxes.
Here is my code to get the find / replace one word at time feature. I've tinkered with this to just add more variables to my Regex but it doesn't seem to work.

View 3 RepliesI have a rich text box ('RichTextBox1') and a button ('BoldButton'), and have it set up so that whenever the user highlights some text in the box and clicks the bold button, that text becomes bold. That much I've figured out...
Public Class Form1
Private Sub BoldButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BoldButton.Click
Dim Bold As New Font(RichTextBox1.Font, FontStyle.Bold)
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = Bold
End Sub
End Class
But I'd also like to add the ability that if the user highlights text that is already bolded, then clicks the bold button, that text will go back to 'regular' font. In other words, I'd like the 'bold' button to be able to toggle between bold and regular font.

View 1 RepliesI've got to do some special things with a RichTextBox. I have to add syntax highlighting and I need
to be able to find out what character was added/removed/inserted at what position every time a key
is pressed. Is there some way to edit the existing, or is there a open source (.net compatible,
preferably VB.net) available for download? I've tried making my own, the problem is, it has to have
every function normally available and I don't have enough time to implement all of that.
Okay so I've got something, where when a button(Button1) is pressed, Text Appears in the RichTextBox When you press Button2, I want more text, in the same textbox, to be on a different line. I can get the text on the SAME line, but not a different one.

Basically I'm writing a little piece of photo-editing software and I would like the user to be able to write whatever they want as a caption for the photo. VB then writes that text in a blank space created under the picture. Pretty straightforward, I've got it printing the text and it can adjust for height differences (i.e. multiple lines of text, smaller fonts, etc.).
My issues arise in the horizontal direction, I cannot make the Richtextbox large enough to represent the width of the photos (Some pictures have dimensions several thousand pixels wide and most monitors cannot display that many...) so I have used horizontal scroll bars (wordwrap off) to allow the user to scroll across and see all the text. Now what I would like to do is to set a limit to how much text the user can enter on a line (based on pixels to accommodate for various fonts/sizes) and it seems to me that setting the .RightMargin to just a little less than the picture dimension (to allow for padding) should do just that.

Issue is that when the rich textbox contains text that is spread over multiple lines, it prints as one massive line, which obviously disappears off the edge of the page.
