Font change

I have a MDI Application. From the container form I am setting the font for
the each controls in the MDI Child form. If I increase the size of the font
greater than the default, the text in each control displays the bigger size
as expected. But the location of the controls are changes and the GUI does
not look good. How do i prevent this location change in each controls, if i
change the font size in control?

Hi all, I know now how to change the font name of a RTF file in a RTB control using, for example: RTextBox1.SelFontName = cmbFonts.Text I have a RTF file -created with Word- displayed in a RTB control. Whenever I change the font type during the runtime by selecting a font name from a combobox -of all system fonts, the text changes its font correctly but I loose some formatting such as a bold text and/or titles become normal text.

I've run CSSCheck on my style sheets and I always get a warning similar to this: "font: bold 9pt/100% sans-serif Warning: Absolute length units should not generally be used on the Web ..."

I'm trying my first table-less site, and I've bumped my head up against a wall. I can't change the font size within a div.

Hello, I am trying to figure out how to change the default font-family and font-size. I tried adding this to the BODY section, but it didn't work. I tried to the P section, but they are not enclosed in <P> tags. They are just basic fonts. Can anyone help? Thanks!

I am building an application using VB.NET 1.1 and I have an issue with Font properties in my Radio Button Lists and Check Box Lists. My issue is that the Font Names and Font Size for these controls have become "Read Only" and I have no idea how they became read only. I didn't set anything to read only and was able to change these fonts just last week - so I must have messed something up. Below is a snippet of my HTML code I used...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is it impossible to change the font in a report field when in print preview (MDE database) or can it only be done in design view in the MDB database. Part of my database is used to print name tags for functions, and it would be nice for the operator to have a choice of different fonts, colours and backgrounds. I have a copy of Terry Kreft and Stephen Lebans font selector mdb Thanks

The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
