Rich Text Box control in C# Win Forms
RichTextBox control is used to display text in specific format. That means by using Rich Text Box control we can apply the Fore Color, Back Color, Font size....etc.
Here we discuss about various formatting options available by using RichTextBox control. Create C# windows application => add RichTextBox control.
Apply the formats to text using Rich Text Box control as shown below.
using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace RichTextBoxExp
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
richTextBox1.Font = new Font("Arial", 12f, FontStyle.Bold);
richTextBox1.BackColor = Color.Yellow;
richTextBox1.ForeColor = Color.Blue;
richTextBox1.SelectionBackColor = Color.Red;
richTextBox1.AppendText("This is Rich TextBox");
