hi,
my app has two parallel rich text boxes containing the same content in 2
different languages. the lines parallel each other, line #3 in english
contains the same content as line #3 in french.
i need the two boxes to syncronize, if someone scrolls and clicks on line 23
in the english side, it should scroll to line 23 in the french side, and the
same from french to english.
i know that text stored in a rich text box is stored in a string array of
the name rtb.lines.
i need to be able to 1) determine in which line a text was clicked, 2) make
the other box scroll to the same line.
as to 1) the only way i can see doing it is counting the number of crlf's
from the start of the text, which i would prefer not to do because it would
take too long as the text is very long. the other way is to insert some
invisible text in each line indicating the line #, but i don't know how to
make the text invisible (the text without these markers also needs to be
printable). anybody have an idea how to know which line was clicked?
also is there a way to know at least which line is currently at the top of
the control?
as to 2) i can think of counting crlf to match the count of the text clicked
in the other rich text box control, locate the caret there, and use the
ScrollToCaret method, but that works only if the control has the focus, and
the user is clicking in the other rich text box? any idea how to scroll a
rich text box to a certain line?
i can't use the 'Find' method, for though the contents are parallel, the
texts are not.
is there a method to know where the caret is located?
thanks for any help

Hi-
In my application I have a RichTextBox, and I want to scroll it so that
the character at a given index appears on the top line of the box. Up
till now, I've used this routine, which works fine:
==
rtb.Focus();
rtb.SelectionStart=rtb.Text.Length-1;
rtb.SelectionLength=0;
rtb.SelectionStart=rtb.Text.IndexOf("MY_TEXT");

Hi
I like to replace a character at the click of mouse. My main problem is when
I click on the characters that need to be changing the richTextBox will
scroll up make it very distracting. Is there anyway that I can disable
scrolling?
Here is what the simple code
aRichtext.Text = aRichtext.Text.Remove(position, 1)
aRichtext.Text = aRichtext.Text.Insert(position, "N")
aRichtext.Select(position, 1)

Hello,
In a rich text box with vertical scrollbars how do we get it to show the
last item at the bottom should there be lots of text etc?
I tried the following but without success:
xxx.ScrollBars.Vertical.Equals(boxUserTextDisplay.ScrollBars.Vertical - 1)

Hello,
Sorry for the long-winded dissertation - but, I have an application where I
need to write text to a rich text box using a common method, callable from
anywhere in my application. The color of the text will depend upon the first
argument and the text will be contained in the second argumet. As far as I
know, my application is not multithreaded - at least I don't knowingly start
any other threads. Since I don't know what the heck...

Just found out that the Microsoft Rich Textbox does not support full text
justification, since it's based on Version 1.0 of the RichEdit Window Class,
and full text justification is only available in versions 3.0 or later of
the class.
However, also just found out that the new Rich Text property in Access 2007
ALSO does not support full text justification! This seems incredible, that
MS would create a brand new application, and not...

I posted a few days ago that it seems to me that the Access 2007 rich text
feature does not support: a) full text justification; b) programmatic
manipulation.
I was hoping that someone might know one way or the other whether that was
true or not, or could point me to an article or help text that would. What I
have seen so far online and in Access 2007 help seems to confirm the above.
But that (or at least (b)) seems incredible that it...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
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
