Code Selection Of Text Within A RichTextBox?

Mar 26, 2009

How do you code selection of text within a RichTextBox. I tried the following code and nothing happens.I would think this should select all text within the RichTextBox.

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectAll()
End Sub

I would think this would select text from a start point to an end point.

Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
ss = Convert.ToInt16(TextBox1.Text)
se = Convert.ToInt16(TextBox1.Text)
Me.RichTextBox1.Select(ss, se)
End Sub

Appending Text To A RichTextBox In A Different Thread And Code File?

Sep 28, 2011

With the intention of creating a program to interface with a serial port device, I recently started learning vb.net. To keep the structure neat the vb code has been split into two places; the first is the code behind for initialising, clicking buttons etc., whilst the second is for managing the comm port. Respectively, these are named 'MainWindow.xaml.vb' and 'ComPortManager.vb'.

In 'comPortManager.vb':
Dim RXArray(2047) As Char ' Array to hold received characters
Dim RXCnt As Integer ' Received character count

VS 2010 RichTextBox Selection?

Apr 29, 2011

When setting the selection of a RichTextBox, the selected text is highlighted even though I set the HideSelection property to True. Once the RTB loses focus then the selected text is no longer highlighted. Programatically setting the focus to another control doesn't hide the selection, only physically clicking another control will hide it. So is there a way I can make the RTB not show the selection right from the start?

RichTextBox Formatting - Selection Font Gets Set To Nothing

Dec 15, 2010

I have a RichTextBox. I process all the formatting and everything works fine. There is an exception. When I have selected text that have two states of formatting in it, the SelectionFont member is set to Nothing. I notice that WordPad recognizes this condition
and kindof greys out the affected format.

Let's take this example:
This text is in Bold.
The rest of the comments here and not in bold.

When I select these two lines, the SelectionFont gets set to Nothing. WordPad sets the Bold button grey, but still clickable. If I click the Bold button in this state, the entire selection is set to bold. How do I achieve this same functionality?

Making A Selection Around A Richtextbox, Vb Express 2010

Apr 16, 2011

i want user when clicks a button to show a selection around a richtextbox and not inside it selecting the text... what i have right now is this: richtextbox1.focus() that will indeed focus the richtextbox but the problem is, it only selects its text content.

What i want is something similar to a Yellow or Blue Square showing around the richtextbox i want to "select", so the user will properly notice the richtextbox more easelly.

i tried messing with the vb express rectangle stuff but i cant get it to draw over all objects, its actually always displaying below all objects in the forum

EDIT: ive also tried using a tiff picturebox with a drawed empty rectangle on it, but the dreadish thing when put over other objects like textboxes, it simply just displays the color of the form emitting any other objects in between, setting the background color to transparent under web colors had the same problem...

RichTextBox Selection Font (Applying 2 Styles)

Jan 18, 2009

How do I apply 2 font styles to the text selected in a richtextbox? Used this method to change fontstyle:
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = New Font(RichTextBox1.SelectionFont, FontStyle.Bold)

But with this method I can only apply 1 font-style (for example bold OR italic OR underlined, etc.) right? But I want to apply for example 2 front-styles, or just add the font style ( so I can add several front-styles to the selected text, for example the text is bold, and then ALSO make it underlined (with this method I can only change the font-style, only one font-style)), how do I do this?

Just do so:
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = New Font(RichTextBox1.SelectionFont, FontStyle.Bold + FontStyle.Italic)

Passing Combobox Selection To FillBy SQL Code

Jun 22, 2010

I have one problem solved, properly converting text to numbers. Now I want to use that conversion as a selection parameter in a FillBy statement.I have two comboboxes linked to an Access 2007 database. One box lists the names of the States in the US. This is what I used for the Table Adapter Configuration Wizard for the combobox "State". [code] ST_UID is an Integer. I created a label with a bound value to STATE.ST_UID so that when a user selects the name of a state from the State box the appropriate ST_UID populates the label, (i.e, California has an ST_UID = 5). The problem is when a state is selected, I only want the Counties for that state to appear in the County box, i.e, COUNTY.ST_UID = 5 if California is the selected state. [code] Problem is I'm not getting any results, the "County" combobox is blank. I've tried a lot of variations on the code, such as % StUID %, etc., but no luck. I have experience with VB 6 but am a beginner with .NET.

Runtime Variable Field Selection In Code Behind?

Jan 23, 2012

I have a list with several fields that is created from dataset from a linqtosql query. At run-time, the user gets to specify what field he/she wants to display from the list. In other languages, I can dynamically do this like:

valueIwant=mylist(i).[fieldnameImInterestedIn]

Where 'fieldnameImInterstedIn is itself a variable. How do I do this in VB.Net?

non-working actual code follows:

Dim patientdata = (From patientvar In pdfdatacontext.tbPatients Where patientvar.PatientID = patientid)
Dim patientlist = patientdata.ToList()
fieldvalue=patientlist(0).(reportrow.userselectedfieldname)

Pan/change/move The Text Appended To A Richtextbox Control So The Text Itself Scrolls In Addition To The Scrollbars?

Jul 11, 2011

My application appends incoming report data onto a RichTextbox control. As more text arrives from an external device, the thumb initially fills the trough and as times goes on, the thumb diminishes in size. This is expected behavior.A modal dialog box allows the user to cancel the file download but since it's modal, the user can't scroll down to see what the last text that was appended.Is there a property/event/method that will show the most recent/last text in the RichTextBox control, rather than the initial text as I have it displayed now? The user would be able to see the text drawn real time without having to use the thumb to accomplish

Asp.net Telerik Text Selection

Mar 23, 2012

I have a telerik radgrid, like shown underneath [code]When I click one of the rows, it will display the password of the clicked row, like so:[code]That works fine. I am proceeding this way because the decryption of the password is a rather complicated and long process, so decrypting one password at a time is less time consuming, especially when the user doesn't need all the passwords.When I have the password displayed, I'd like to be able to select the password in the grid to copy it. Unfortunately, the radgrid will fire the "RowClick" item command once more, and the row gets de-selected. Therefore, I cannot copy the passwords. My question is: Is there a way to cancel the itemcommand of a radgrid under certain circumstances? I'd like to be able to disable the itemcommand event when the password is already decrypted.[code]

Drop Down Text Selection Like Msword?

I am looking to include in my word processor a drop down font selection button, much like that in MSword, where it shows the installed fonts an allows the user to pick one. It is for a rtb, so I'm not sure if it's possible. If it isn't, could you guide me into coding a button with say the text 'Arial' to change the selected text in my rtb to arial. Also, which fonts are supported by rtbes?
