 Posted: Thu Sep 26, 2002 1:31 am Post subject: Format Clipboard Text |
 |
|
Does anyone know if there is a way to "force" a certain font/font size on text in the Clipboard. I need to have the clipboard data be forced to a non-truetype font (Courier for instance) if possible. If it's not then when it's pasted into an email message or document the columns don't line up. The clipboard is loaded from a variable as follows:
CLIPBOARD SET,%%Information
The information is first loaded from a text file into a list using the LIST LOADFILE command, then looped through to remove blank lines and inserted into the %%Information variable using the @STRINS function.
Thanks.

There is probably another way but I used my dll vdsobj.dll in this example. Please note that it is shareware, you can DOWNLOAD IT HERE.
| Code: |
external vdsobj.dll
DIALOG CREATE,New Dialog,-1,0,255,191,CLASS MyWindow
DIALOG SHOW
%%information = hello world@cr()how are you today?@cr()@cr()great and you?
OBJECT CLASS,MyWindow
OBJECT ADD,RICHEDIT,RICHEDIT1,10,10,230,170
rem You can change the above to > OBJECT ADD,RICHEDIT,RICHEDIT1,0,0,0,0
rem so the richedit is not visible.
OBJECT SET,RICHEDIT1,%%information
OBJECT FORMAT,RICHEDIT1,CLIPBOARD,SELECTALL
OBJECT FORMAT,RICHEDIT1,SETFONT,Courier,12,BLACK
OBJECT FORMAT,RICHEDIT1,CLIPBOARD,SELECTALL
OBJECT FORMAT,RICHEDIT1,CLIPBOARD,COPY
rem ALL DONE, you can now paste to you're email program!
:evloop
wait event
goto @event()
:close
OBJECT REMOVE,RICHEDIT1
exit

Maybe you can even do it by useing a hidden edit... Of course, you must use a style with Courier or something, but I think it may work...
| Code: |
dialog set,hiddenedit1,%%information
clipboard set,@dlgtext(hiddenedit1)
