I am looking a way to create a HyperLink in a RichTextBox pointing to a line of the text of the same RichTextBox.
I just found how to do that with Internet Links but I don't find a way to do it with the same text inside of the control (It's like Hyperlinks in MS Word pointing to a header or bookmark).
Thanks in Advance. - CCB
No, this will not work unless you code the necessary stuff yourself.
Two suggestions:
www.
Let's have a look at both options..:
www.goto.234
and anchors like this: #234#
this is really rather simple.. A working example can be as simple as this:
private void richTextBox1_LinkClicked(object sender, LinkClickedEventArgs e)
{
var s = e.LinkText.Split('.');
string anchor = s[2];
int a = richTextBox1.Text.IndexOf("#" + anchor + "#" );
if (a >= 0) richTextBox1.SelectionStart = a; else return; // do add more checks!
richTextBox1.SelectionLength = 0;
Text = anchor + " @ " + a;
//richTextBox1.ScrollToCaret(); <<--- this crashes on my machine!
// so I take the jump out of the click event and it works:
Timer ttt = new Timer() { Interval = 100 };
ttt.Tick += (ss, ee) => { richTextBox1.ScrollToCaret(); ttt.Stop(); };
}
Start by formatting each to
Now this can do the job:
public string delimiters = " ()[]{}!&?=/\\,;.\r\n";
private void richTextBox2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
int sstart = -1;
string s = getWordAt(richTextBox2.Text,
richTextBox2.SelectionStart, delimiters, out sstart);
if (s.Length < 3) return;
string char1 = s.Substring(0, 1);
if (char1 == "~")
{
int p = richTextBox2.Text.IndexOf("#" + s.Substring(1));
if (p >= 0) { richTextBox2.SelectionStart = p; richTextBox2.ScrollToCaret(); }
}
}
public static string getWordAt(string text, int cursorPos,
string delimiters, out int selStart)
{
int startPos = 0;
selStart = startPos;
if ((cursorPos < 0) | (cursorPos > text.Length) | (text.Length == 0)) return "";
if ((text.Length > cursorPos) & (delimiters.Contains(text[cursorPos]))) return "";
int endPos = text.Length - 1;
if (cursorPos == text.Length) endPos = text.Length - 1;
else { for (int i = cursorPos; i < text.Length; i++)
{ if (delimiters.Contains(text[i])) { endPos = i - 1; break; } } }
if (cursorPos == 0) startPos = 0;
else { for (int i = cursorPos; i > 0; i--)
{ if (delimiters.Contains(text[i])) { startPos = i + 1; break; } } }
selStart = startPos;
return text.Substring(startPos, endPos - startPos + 1);
}
Here are the two versions side by side, once at the top then after clicking on a link:
Both versions work fine, although both could do with some more checks.
Note that I was too lazy to format the pseudo-links in the second example, so they show their tildes and hashes..
Not hard to write a helper function that can insert the formatting; the search will still work as it searches in the Text, not the Rtf property..
