Hello,

I work with TX Text Control 16 ActiveX and Visual Basic 6. The Text Control on the form is named TXC.

I want to know the height and width of a textframe. This works directly after inserting the frame with TXC.objectHeight, but it doesn't work anymore, when I later select the frame and try to use TXC.objectHeight again. The error message says, that the object settings are not possible or that the object doesn't exist. there is nothing else on the form. My example:

Code:

---

Private Sub Test_Frame()
   
'-- Create Frame, read Height and back to body:
    TXC.TextFrameInsert -1, 0, 0, 0, 2000, 2000, 3, 20, 20, 20, 20
    Debug.Print "Obj.Height = " & TXC.ObjectHeight    ' ok, works
    TXC.TextFrameSelect (-1)
   
'-- Later Select frame and read Height:
    TXC.TextFrameSelect (1)
    Debug.Print "Obj.Height = " & TXC.ObjectHeight    ' Error 20036: Obj attributes not ...

End Sub

---

How can I get the frame dimensions from an existing frame?

Thanks for your help and regards,
Rolf

Hi,

I have a problem with exporting Unicode RTF document with text typed in Vrinda font into PDF (see attached RTF file). PDF is not the correct representation of the original RTF file. Bengali characters positions are not correct, they seem to be mixed up. Ligature in Bengali language are very specific, and the order of characters are very important. Please see the code example and see if there is a way to get the correct output PDF:

Code:

---

                LoadSettings ls = new LoadSettings();
                txTextCtrl.Load(txtFileName.Text, StreamType.RichTextFormat, ls);
           
                byte[] pdfFile = null;
                SaveSettings mySaveSettings = new SaveSettings();
                txTextCtrl.Save(out pdfFile, BinaryStreamType.AdobePDF, mySaveSettings);
                txTextCtrl.Dispose();
               
                File.WriteAllBytes(txtOutputFileName.Text, pdfFile);

---

I tried to use InternalUnicodeFormat for BinaryStreamStype, but all I got was an error. Any hint will be more then welcome.

TxTextCtrl - ver.16.0
Win7

Thank you in advance,
Joe

Hi there,

i'm using Tx Text Control 19.0 SP2 for Windows Forms.
I have a application like your Tx Text Control words example. I create a new rtf-document and insert a image with saving style 'Embed original file reference' and save it. When I open the document again and the file path of the linked images is not valid, than I cant't save the document as pdf:

The operation could not be performed. an unexpected error has occured. (03-131C)

I know that I can embed the Image as data in document. But I have lot of older documents with file reference, where the path of some images is not always valid. But I don't want to see a exception in this case.

I think it is like this bug:
0003103 Images
http://www.textcontrol.com/en_US/sup...s/dotnet/1900/
You write it's fixed in 19.0 SP2...

You can compehend the problem in your Tx Words example.

What can I do to fix it?

Is it possible to use Page.GetImage to create an Image or EMF that has a transparent background?

Or, is there any other way to print the contents of the text control to a DC with a transparent background?

Hi Everyone... I am upgrading to v20 ActiveX Server and the SavetoMemory method call is failing with "Method 'SavetoMemory' of object _DTX$OLE failed" with nbr -2147418113 and SaveToMemoryBuffer method call is failing with the error "Invalid property value." nbr 380.

Is the SaveToMemoryBuffer preferred? Neither is working for me with v20 AXS... here is my code examples:

mByteArray = cObjTX1.SaveToMemory(3, False)

or

mByteArray = cObjTX1.SaveToMemoryBuffer(mByteArray, 3, False)

thanks.

Tim

Hi,

I'm getting errors when I try to do some merging (or template uploading) from my php code. The error tells me that there is not enough disk space ("There was an exception running the extensions specified in the config file. ---> Es steht nicht genug Speicherplatz auf dem Datenträger zur Verfügung").

I can't merge any documents anymore.

Hi!

Well I'm using livedocx for convert DOCX, DOC... to PDF and I have a problem. When I convert a document, the resulting PDF is not the same as the original document, it creates spaces at the beginning of the page. do I have to specify the format to convert? My code:

PHP Code:

---

$mailMerge = new Zend_Service_LiveDocx_MailMerge();
$mailMerge->setUsername('xxxx')
->setPassword('xxxxx')
->setWsdl('xxxxpremiumxxxxxxx?WSDL');
$mailMerge->setLocalTemplate($wordsPath.$filename);
$mailMerge->createDocument();
$document = $mailMerge->retrieveDocument('pdf');
file_put_contents($pdf, $document); 


---

I would also like to know if there is any way (or documentation) to edit documents generated to add content. Or, as in this case, remove the blanks.

Sorry for my terrible English.

I would like to be able to search the content of a document using the Find method, and specifying a wildcard search criterion (? and *). There was a thread on this subject in this forum in about 2002, but nothing came of it.

I would also like to be able to search the complete content (i.e. including main text and all headers and footers) with one call to Find. Although the documentation doesn't describe the scope of the Find and FindReplace methods, they seem to search only the text in the main text or the current header/footer.

I have simulated this by extracting the content of the TX Text Control, for example, 'SaveToMemory 3, False' and doing the search externally to the control.

Hi,

I'd like to get the Size and Location of TableCell.

I want to show any Control (such as RadioButton or ComboBox ...) over the TextControl.
For simple controls as described above, I have realized in the following code.

Code:

---

Dim checkbox = New CheckBox()
checkbox.Text = "This is sample?"
checkbox.Checked = True
checkbox.Location = New Point(x, y) ' calculated
TextControl1.Controls.Add(checkbox)

---

As a next step, I want to set the control to the full size of the TableCell.

#	AAA	BBB
1	Foo	## I want to place a full size, and Multiline TextBox!! ##

It's necessary to set the Size and Location to Control, but I can't get the Size and Location from TableCell.

Can I get Size and Location of TableCell?


Thanks,
Kengo ASAMIZU

Using VS10 VB.NET and TXTextControl 20.0 Express version.
I cannot add a new table with 2 columns. In the following code:

TextControl1.Tables.Add(1, nCols, nTableID)
Table = TextControl1.Tables.GetItem(nTableID)

if nCols > 2, the table is created perfectly
If nCols <= 2 Table is set to Nothing

I am new to TX TextControl and I would be VERY grateful for a solution!

Hi gang!

I am having problems displaying an html file (using regular load in textcontrol .NET ver 19), that has embedded css3 (not linked to an external .cc file). The html displays correctly in the browser (Firefox 28) but the css formatting is gone in TextControl. Here's the file in question:

http://photogabi.com/tests/receipt_xml.htm

However, I tried a separate test html document with a simple css formatting (linked and/or embedded) and it worked fine:

Code:

---

<style>
h1
{
color:orange;
text-align:center;
}
</style>

---

I wonder if there is something I am doing wrong in the linked html above, or CSS3 has issues being formatted in TextControl ver 19?

thanks a lot!

Hi

When using the Tables.Add method that shows the built in dialog, how do you determine the table that was created from the Tables collection so that I can set the ID property since it isn't necessarily the last one in the collection?
