posted March 15, 2004 3:38 PM Here is a handy way to determine which row/col was clicked. It uses the Mousedown event and the CharacterSize property: Private Sub Vt1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Vt1.MouseDown Dim x As Integer = (e.X / Vt1.CharacterSize.Width) + 1 Dim y As Integer = (e.Y / Vt1.CharacterSize.Height) + 1 Vt1.Write("Vt1_MouseDown: " + "(" + x.ToString + "," + y.ToString + ")" + vbCrLf) End Sub |

posted March 31, 2004 2:54 PM Hi Tony, You and I have talked via email about this. This code does not work for me. Try this: Start a project, add a VT to a windows form. Set BufferRows = 0 Add the following code: Private Sub Vt1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Vt1.MouseDown If e.Clicks > 1 Then Dim x As Integer = (e.X / Vt1.CharacterSize.Width) + 1 Dim y As Integer = (e.Y / Vt1.CharacterSize.Height) + 1 Vt1.Write("Vt1_MouseDown: " + "(" + x.ToString + "," + y.ToString + ")" + vbCrLf) MessageBox.Show(Vt1.ScrapeText(y, 0, 80)) End If End Sub Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Vt1.Write("Line1 abcdefg" & vbCrLf) Vt1.Write("Line2 abcdefg" & vbCrLf) Vt1.Write("Line3 abcdefg" & vbCrLf) Vt1.Write("Line4 abcdefg" & vbCrLf) Vt1.Write("Line5 abcdefg" & vbCrLf) Vt1.Write("Line6 abcdefg" & vbCrLf) End Sub Double-Click on each of the "numbered" lines. As the Vt1.Write statements add up, this logic gets less and less accurate. Double-Click on some of the added lines. Am I missing something? I am sorely in need of a function to reliably determine the character clicked (preferably accounting for different font sizes and scrollback buffer. I appreciate all your help, Jason |

posted April 1, 2004 2:35 PM This would be something you would need to determine on your own. I don't have any pre-written code for you. If you aren't able to figure it out, please contact us directly to discuss consulting / support options. |
