RichTextBox - Show Unicode Control Characters

The ComboBox has a context menu with an option to "Show Unicode
Control Characters". How can I use that context menu in a RichTextBox
or call that functionality from a RichTextBox? Is there a way to do
that. I'd be surprised if that was missing from RichTextBox and only
available from a ComboBox. I could really use that with RTL Arabic
text.

Do you mean it should be there? Is this by design or am I missing
something?

There is not a problem with your system, it is not there.
By design, I guess :-(

I'm new to unicode and language issues. Basically I have a RichTextBox and I'm filling it with a string that could be any number of different languages. Sometimes the characters show up correctly - ie Chinese, Korean, etc, but sometimes they just show up as junk. If I know what the language it is supposed to be, is there any way I can select the proper codepage and/or encoding? I'm using C# btw. TIA

I have a RichTextBox populated with characters that include a character of a script other than the default. When I try to paste a Unicode character into the RichTextBox downstream of that character I get a box. Obviously, the character I paste in isn't supported by the script. I can look at the RTF of the RichTextBox and I can see the script it's calling for. I know I can modify the RTF to remove the call for the script but I would like to...

I need to paste an RTF non-ANSI string into a RichTextBox. I know how to do that if the string were all ANSI characters. But the text contains Unicode characters that have no ANSI equivalent. I don't know how to include them. Can you help?

All, Can someone tell me what DataFormat from the clipboard is used when pasting into a RichTextBox control by using Ctrl-V? If I copy unicode text from a HTML document and paste into a RichTextBox control, it pastes little squares even though the RTB's font is set to "Arial Unicode MS". If I copy the unicode text from the HTML, paste it into MS-Word, copy the MS-Word text, and paste it into the RTB control it works fine. The...

I am having a display issue with the richtextbox when I add text any characters that appear after the unicode characters appear as though the font has been altered. I had to set the SelectionFront property on the TextChanged event in order to keep it from effecting every line afterwards. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, I have a multiline RichTextBox that I use for data logging. I'm concerned about how the AppendText method reacts when over time the maximum number of characters have been added. Do the oldest characters it contains start rolling off the top into the bit bucket, does it simply start silently ignoring appends until some characters, are deleted, or does some kind of exception get thrown? I've heard numerous opinions on what the...

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,...
