What is the easiest way to implement a simple text editor w/in a RichTextBox? For example, one similar to what I'm using here to enter this text (i.e., having a bold, italic, underline, redo/undo, bullet, number, and hyperlink buttons).

I am using a RichTextBox as a text editor. Each chr() has its own color. I am using rtfText.SelectionColor with rtfText.SelectedText. I have to, or I think I have to, Use For/Next Loops with Do While Loops to search for each Chr() using Mid() & InStr(). Of course this works very well but, it is waaaaayyyyy to slow.Some of the files can be over 8MB. Is there a better way? Am I doing this right?

View 5 RepliesI am attempting to create a rudimentary text editor with buttons that can implement the Cut, Copy and Paste commands. I was able to use buttons on a toolbar and menu to implement the Cut, Copy and Paste commands using the "Command="Cut"" command in the XAML of the buttons on the toolbar and menu but have been unsuccessful in using regular buttons to implement the commands. When I attempted to use the "Command="Cut"" command for regular buttons the buttons appear disabled when debugging the application. Does anyone know if the Cut, Copy and Paste commands are disabled for regular buttons?

I am trying to do a simple editor that would allow you to design the plays. How do I implement a picturebox (picturebox1) with an image in it (lets say image1) then when I drag it image1 will appear in another picturebox (picturebox2)with a basketball court background. Then after dragging image1, picturebox1 will now display another image (image2) ready to be dragged also.

View 6 RepliesI'm trying to implement printing functionality into a simple program for my company. It's not necessary, but it would be a nice finishing touch for everyone. And really, in practice, my printing feature works. My problem is that each line is printed on a separate page of paper and I can't find a way to just like, print a page.
It doesn't have to be fancy. I know that I won't need word wrap, nor will anyone ever print more than one page. Here's my ginked & modified code thus far:
Private Sub PrintDocument1_PrintPage(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs) Handles PrintDocument1.PrintPage
Dim linesPerPage As Single = 0

View 1 RepliesI'm fairly new to VB.NET, and I'm working on a text editor with a tabbed interface. I deal with large text files. Should I have each tab / text document open up in a new thread or a process? I basically want the entire application to always run fast as the text editor is just one part of it. If I have several large text files open I don't want the rest of the application slowing down a bit.
View 2 RepliesI'm adding a method to find and select text in my text editor. Everything worked fine, including the ability to find all instances of the text. My problem came when I tried to make it more user-friendly (doesn't it always?). Originally I had only a menu item with a shortcut( Ctrl + F) which invoked an input box.
Then I added a textbox and a button (similar to that seen in a web browser's Find() method) that calls the method in the same manner as the Find/Replace menu option and displays the desired text in the textbox. Everything works fine except that the text is not selected. I have MessageBoxes displaying the values of required variables in 3 places (marked ***FOR DEBUG ONLY***) to make sure that no values are being changed, but all variables are the same. The method still locates the text, but it is not highlighted.
I think it could have something to do with which object has focus. (When I click the button, the selected text loses focus?). But if I click everything with the menu items, it still works...
