Color Property

Description

Sets or returns the color of the referenced text.

Property type

Read-write property

Syntax

Visual Basic
Public Property Color As Long

Remarks

The color is stored as a long integer and is created with the RGB function (red, green, and blue color intensities) or as an integer between 0 and 16 that represents standard colors. The TextEdit object always has an insert index or a selection active; setting any property on the TextEdit object applies to the current selection (if present) or to the text at the current insert index.

Module Example
    <STAThread()> _
    Sub Main()
        Dim objApplication As SolidEdgeFramework.Application = Nothing
        Dim objDraftDocument As SolidEdgeDraft.DraftDocument = Nothing
        Dim objSheet As SolidEdgeDraft.Sheet = Nothing
        Dim objTextBoxs As SolidEdgeFrameworkSupport.TextBoxes = Nothing
        Dim objTextBox As SolidEdgeFrameworkSupport.TextBox = Nothing
        Dim objTextEdit As SolidEdgeFrameworkSupport.TextEdit = Nothing

        Try
            OleMessageFilter.Register()

            objApplication = Marshal.GetActiveObject("SolidEdge.Application")
            objDraftDocument = objApplication.ActiveDocument
            objSheet = objDraftDocument.ActiveSheet
            objTextBoxs = objSheet.TextBoxes
            objTextBox = objTextBoxs.Add(x1:=0.1, y1:=0.3, z1:=0)
            objTextBox.Text = "Some text"
            objTextEdit = objTextBox.Edit
            ' Set orange color
            objTextEdit.Color = 33023
