Control That Allows The Font To Be Automatically Scaled?
Jan 31, 2010
is there any control that allows the font to be automatically scaled? example, i want to make the text 80% of the width and height of the control, and it must be centered.
currently im using textrenderer.measurestring repeatedly to determine the largest possible size i could have that would be within 80% of the width and height of the control, and the onpaint handlers graphics.drawstring to keep the text vertically and horizontally centered.
I can't change change the font size or font name or color of the text in the DHTML Editing Control. I have 2 listbox controls FontNameList containing all of the installed fonts on my PC and FontSizeList containing some numbers to be used as fontsize and I use the execommand and build my App but the font did not change instead it grew bigger but when I tryed to change it back it stayed the same. The Code for that was:
How can I make a richtextbox automatically change the font size when the text exceeds the length of the textbox. So basically the text is always visible without moving left or right.
I have 3 paragraphs of text on a page...I want to change the font size of the paragraphs after every 3 seconds. What I want is when the page loads para 1 is 10px and para 2 is 8px and then after 3 seconds para 2 is 10px and para 1 is 8px. I mean like using an update panel or something?
I've got this label, which changes to a random word each time a user presses a button.. But sometimes the word is too long to fit on the label, so it does this (Picturte below) How can I check if the text on the label has been cut, so I can automatically change the font to fit?
I'm wondering if anyone is familiar with designing UIs to be scalable to any resolution. Are there any libraries or functionalities of .NET that make this easy? We also have Infragistics controls as a resource.
There are plenty of references on the Internet on MSChart (AxMSChart)for Visual Basic 2008, but the published code seems to have all sorts of problems. I am a novice and trying to get a line chart with scaled dates on the x-axis.
I have a form that scales a background image. The form is painted 30 times a second (using Invalidate so it redraws the whole background image). When the window size is less than half my screen (1366x768), Task Manager reports that the program's CPU usage is 00. If I increase this a few pixels in width, all of a sudden the CPU usage jumps up to 50+. I can get up to about 606000 pixels in the client rectangle before it starts exhibiting this behavior
On click, I'd like this piece of code to create new polygon, shown in multiples with different coordinates and colors, sizes and orientation. Color and polygon in multiples works. My issue is I'd like to add more code that will allow each of the multiple polygon created scaled randomly and rotated. How to keep the polygons inside the canvas?
So far looks like this when user clicks start: [URL]
Code: Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs) Handles startButton.Click Dim endCount As Integer = random.Next(1, 10) Dim plotPoint As New Point For count = 1 To endCount [Code] .....
I want to run my app maxmized; i know how to do that(changing the properties or coding); but i want to put the objects in there scaled with the form;
How can i do that?
For example: i have a form with the size(300,300) with a button in the bottom left corner ;i put the window state property MAXIMIZED and the window comes maximized for sure, but the button doesn't stay in the bottom left corner, ir stays int the normal position.
I am trying to get the green label box to show the correct coordinate after the box is scaled. The red box always shows the true coordinate of the mouse in the picturebox. So for example - after you click on [Scale x4], the 32x32 picturebox will be 128x128. The red box will now show from 0-127 x and y. I would like the green box to show 0-3 x and 0-3 y. Does anyone know how to do this? The code is ready to run, just cut and paste. [code]
I am using old good RichEdit control with last version of VB.NET. I want to set font attributes for text which will be typed from now and then. So, RichEdit.Font and RichEdit.SelectedFont are not an options. What should be the correct approach?
I need to display a table in rich text within a form window. It is only a two column table, so tabbing works fine to line everything up (since RichTextBox does not support RTF tables). However, sometimes the tab stops are incorrect because of non-fixed width fonts.
So, I need a way to measure the pixel width of a particular string with a particular font (Arial 10) and space or tab pad to make sure that everything aligns.
I know about the Graphics.MeaureString method, but since this is in a rich text box, I don't have an initilzed PaintEventArgs variable, and that would seem like overkill to create JUST to measure one string.
From MSDN:
Private Sub MeasureStringMin(ByVal e As PaintEventArgs) ' Set up string. Dim measureString As String = "Measure String"
[Code].....
So is the best bet just to create a dummy PaintEventArgs instance? If so, what is the best way to do that (since I'll have to call this string measuring method several hundred times)?
Why does a Panel control have a Font property? What does it affect? Any controls added to the panel will have their own Font property that controls their appearance, so I don't see the point of the panel control having a Font property, especially since it has no text property.
One of the fields in a listview control is a calculated integer field. Is there any way that when the value is less than 0, the font colour of the whole row or the column changed to red?
I've added a new font to the OS (MW6E13B) that replicates the same font used at the bottom of cheques.The question is - how do I import that font into the project and use it with the label and ensure that it is deployed with the app?This one I have searched high and low on!
I DO know that I can set the font of a label to a standard style vLabel.Font = New Font("Microsoft Sans Serif", 12, FontStyle.Bold, GraphicsUnit.Point, CType(0, Byte))
I need to be able to save the font style and have it reapplied when I reopon my form. I know how to "reapply" it when I open the form again. I just need help getting the original value for saving purposes.
I have problem in Form controls. I inherit label control in a class Mylabel i use this label on my form not standard label control. now i want change the Font all Mylabel in my form then it not change Font when i use standard label control it's work.
When you add a label from the the toolbox, the default font is always Microsoft Sans Serif, Regular, 8. I like to use Ariel as my font of choice. Is there a way to change the default font setting so I don't have to pick the font I want every time? I've looked under Tools->Options->Environment->Fonts and Colors and I can't find it there.
What must i do for the program to control the value of x automatically? that is, suppose i click on btn1, value of x must become 0; if i click on btn2, value of x must become 1 and so on.
I've in my app many self created custom controls (not as a real active x control, but a simple modified class). In this case I'm writing about a groupbox. I've placed many of them on different forms. But now, I want to change the backcolor of this controls. I change the backcolor in the class, rebuild the project, and the backcolor didn't change. Why? I don't want to place the groupbox again, it would be too much work. It should be a chance to do this whithout placing the groupboxes again.
I am navigating to a website using a webbrowers control and I wish to automatically scroll the page after it is loaded. I have used scrolltop , scrollleft commands as set out below but nothing seems to happen. WebBrowser1.Document.Body.ScrollTop = 100 WebBrowser1.Document.Body.ScrollLeft = 200
I have placed the above commands in a command button and wait until the page has loaded before I press it and also in the WebBrowser1_DocumentCompleted sub
Other commands such as WebBrowser1.Document.Body.ScrollIntoView(True) Seem to work ok.

I am using webbrowser control to automatically navigate through facebook.Nothing malicious, just an experiment of sorts.Im working on a bot that that would extract the names of all friends on my friends page, open up those pages, extract their friends names, and repeat.The end result would be a chart of who knows who. A sort of 'six degrees of separation' experiment.I have everything automated up until getting to my friends page and I am having trouble extracting the urls from my friends page. [code] Now, I figure I can extract from <div class=fsl fwb fcb">, but Im confused as to how to go about doing this. On another thread, someone said it cant be done with webbrowser control, but im new automation.
