    Well I am here trying to make a funtext under VB 2008 thanks to Autos tutorial here
    vb-2008-paltalk-integration-t31230.html
    I am up to a great start, but I have a damn issue with rezizing fonts cause every time I change the font size with this code
    Me.RichTextBox1.Font = New Font(Me.RichTextBox1.Font.FontFamily, 8)
    The damn thing changes the font size but also remotes every other style I had apply like color, boldness 🙄
    here what I got so far, its just the begining lol

    I see, because you apply style to selection only, but you want the size for all the text.
    So you have 2 choices, either apply the size to selection only, or, go over the text and apply size to different styles seperately.

    Like in a loop. What you want me to write the code?
    First you need to define what you want, one size to all text or selection/new text only.
    BTW it’s quite annoying that when you change size/style/color the text lose focus.
    And how do you remove bold? And what about italic?

    Is like when I first higlight the text then apply the bold style, then I try to rezize it to bigger letter size then it looses its boldness 🙂 and man I am liking VB 2008 I though it was goona be hard to upgrade programs buts is mad easy.

    if i understand what you want to do, you want to use .SelectionFont like this example


    
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = New Font("Arial", 8, FontStyle.Bold)
    
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Blue
    
Me.RichTextBox1.AppendText("H")
    
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = New Font("Arial", 14, FontStyle.Bold)
    
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Brown
    
Me.RichTextBox1.AppendText("E")
    
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = New Font("Arial", 22, FontStyle.Bold)
    
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.ForestGreen
    
Me.RichTextBox1.AppendText("L")
    
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = New Font("Arial", 16, FontStyle.Bold)
    
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Red
    
Me.RichTextBox1.AppendText("L")
    
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = New Font("Arial", 8, FontStyle.Bold)
    
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Pink
    
Me.RichTextBox1.AppendText("O")

    and if you need to combine multiple font styles such as bold and italic, see the following example


    
Dim myStyle As FontStyle
    
myStyle = FontStyle.Bold + FontStyle.Italic
    
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = New Font("Arial", 8, myStyle)

    In fact you’re going to have the same problem if you try to apply a new style to a sellection with mixed styles (e.g applying italic to a selection with plain and bold text)

    Note that style manipulation should be done using bitwise or/and and not with +/-.
