Please Help me to Change Line Spacing in Text Box on VB.Net!
I have a MultiLine TextBox and want to change line Spacing Between the lines
Do I have to use another control?
Can't do this in the text box?

I have a chart where I want to display text tooltips of variable lengths as long as 300 characters, but they are displayed with random box sizes. Sometimes they are shown in a neat square box with several lines of text, which is nice. But sometimes they attempt to put all the text in one line and it doesn't fit in the chart, so some part of the text is not visible.
I wonder if there is a way to format the tooltip box to a fixed maximum width to avoid this problem.
Below are two pictures showing the same chart. The first one shows a tooltip box out of the chart and page, so the complete text is not visible. The second one shows another tooltip that randomly shows the text fine.
Note: I tried cutting the text to a fixed length of 50 or 80 characters and it's better, but I would prefer to have the complete text.
I am very new to VB and am exploring this method to simplify mundane manual work process of highlighting certain text in Powerpoint textboxes.
My intention is for VBA to search for keywords in the textbox, then changes the colour of this line and also a few other lines. e.g. search for the line that contains the word "video", if it returns that line 7 contains this word, I want to change the colour of line 7 and maybe lines 3, 10 and 11 to red colour.
Since your question is generic, We can only give a generic response.
First thing you need to know about VBA in powerpoint for your issue is that you need to access things like objects. You'll first need to access the current Slide and Shape your textbox is in. In this example, Let's assume the textbox you want to access is in the first slide, in the first shape:
Set oTextbox = ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes(1)
With oTextbox
text = .TextFrame.TextRange.Characters.Text 'To access the textbox text.
If InStr(1,text,"some_text")
.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Color.RGB = [255 0 0] 'To change the color of a textbox.
End If
End With
.TextFrame.TextRange.Characters.Text accesses the shape's text.
To search for a given text in the textbox, you can use the InStr
command to see if the text you want is in your textbox.
.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Color.RGB accesses the text's color.
This is at least a start for you.
Do you know what the command in VBA is in order to space out some text?
I looked on the internet and didn't find anything that would work.
this "SOMMAIRE" textbox has no spacing
and this, is what I want that textbox to look like :
there is more space in between the letters
more exactly, I am looking for the VBA code for this exact button :
Use the shape's .TextFrame2.TextRange.Font.Spacing property. By default it is probably 0. You can change it to other values to increase the font spacing.
Just wanted to add that auto-kerning is also a factor so you'll want to remove that too:
'Set character point spacing to zero
.TextFrame2.TextRange.Font.Spacing = 0
'Remove automatic kerning
.TextFrame2.TextRange.Font.Kerning = False
The kerning property can be viewed manually if you select the shape and in the Font group on the HOME ribbon, click the notch in the bottom right and then go to the Character Spacing tab - you will see a checkbox there where this property is set.
I'm trying to word wrap/wrap text the paragraph I added as a non-editable text field in Xcode 6. I have 'Line Breaking' set to 'Word Wrap' already, but it's still cutting off the text after one line. Is there something else I should be doing?
Solved. Figured out text fields can only be 1 line, so created it as a label instead, set lines attribute to 0, then dragged to size object and word wrap appropriately.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle line breaks with a WMD editor?
When a user hits enter in the textarea I want it to equate to a line break in the html.
Thanks...
A single empty line will move your text to a new line. Is this what you mean?
