POHow to selectively underline strings in RichTextBox?
text
Body
copied!<p>In my program after clicking on the button - selected ListView entries should be copied to RichTextBox. ListView contains contact information, and the effect I want to accomplish is similar to the one in Oultook (when choosing contacts from contact book). Part of my code that serves this purpose looks like that:</p> <pre><code> private void toButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { int start = 0; for (int i = 0; i < contactsListView.SelectedItems.Count; i++) { if (contactsTextBox.TextLength != 0) contactsTextBox.Text += "; "; start = contactsTextBox.TextLength; contactsTextBox.Text += contactsListView.SelectedItems[i].Text + " " + contactsListView.SelectedItems[i].SubItems[1].Text + " [" + contactsListView.SelectedItems[i].SubItems[2].Text + "]"; contactsTextBox.Select(start, contactsTextBox.TextLength); contactsTextBox.SelectionFont = new Font(contactsTextBox.SelectionFont, FontStyle.Underline); contactsTextBox.DeselectAll(); contactsTextBox.SelectionFont = new Font(contactsTextBox.SelectionFont, FontStyle.Regular); } } </code></pre> <p>Unfortunately somehow FontStyle is inherited by entire text and everything I enter after entry from ListView is also underlined.</p> <p>So my question is - how to underline only certain text (where I have made a mistake)?</p> <p>There is similar topic on stackoverflow <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/136132/better-way-of-manipulating-richtext-in-c">here</a> unfortunately in my case solution stated there will be waste of resources.</p>
