Change The Width Of A Text Box?

Mar 21, 2009

I am using VB Express 2005. I am helping a friend with uni assignment, and I want to be able to change the width of a text box for whatever value the user desires. SO I tried using another text box as input

eg
txtWidth.Text = txtBox.Width
(error)

Then made a label and tried

txtWidth.Text = lblWidth.Text
lblWidth.Text = txtBox.Width

It ran but always set the lbl to its original size, so that no matter what I inputted it set it to 143 (thats the size I made it originally). Keeping in my this is on Button click.

Width Of The Auto-dropdown Box Not Match The Width Of The Combobox?

Feb 6, 2011

In VB.NET for the combo box, I have set the autocomplete mode to "SuggestAppend" and autocomplete source to "ListItems". Its working as expected. But the width of the autosuggest dropdown box is not same as that of combo box and so it looks weird.I tried changing the value dropdown width property but it changes the value of normal dropdown box (seen after clicking down arrow on combobox), and not the autosuggest dropdown box.So what code or property needs to be set to make autosuggest dropdown box the same width as that of combobox width?

Is there a way to detect the actual width of text in a vb.net web app? It needs to be dependant upon its font-style and size.

Printed Line Width Too Wide Even When Pen Width Is 1?

Mar 18, 2010

I have a drawing program written in VB6 that is capable of printing very thin lines to a laser printer. In VB .net, even though the pen width is set to 1, the thinnest lines are way too "thick". The equivalent line width in VB .net using a pen width of 1 is about the same as the DrawWidth = 4 in VB6. So, my question is, how can I print very thin lines to a laser printer in VB .net?

Displaying Fixed Width Text In WinForms?

Jun 22, 2011

I need to write some fixed-width font (i.e Courier New or Consolas) text to a .net Winforms window in the Paint event - not using a label or any other winforms control - rather using a graphics object method to render the text onto the form's client area. I am having difficulty aligning text on different lines under headings even though it is fixed width font. How can I get a precise measurement of the width of a single character in the fixed-width font? How can I get 2 lines to print out aligned horizontally in successive text out calls?

For example:
Heading 1 Heading 2
Short Other text
A bit longer Still aligned?

I need a separate call to render each cell of text under Heading 2. For argument's sake - let's say column 1 items are printed in black and column 2 are printed in blue - we can't use the same text out call for the entire line.
