Rich Text Flip Horizontal (Mirror) - 26 Jun 2005 18:15 GMT
I want to make my own Teleprompter Software.
I need to show Flipped (Mirror) Text in the RichEdit Control.
which would appear normal in the Mirror.

plesae how me to Flip the Rich Text in the RichEdit Control.

i know how to print fliped rtf in the picture box and scroll it.
but when i do line by line scrolling. finding first line
on the picture box is difficult, when user wants Reverse Scrolling.

So, it would be easy to scroll RTB in any direction.

Another option is to find a mirror font. There are a couple of types
of fonts that should be readily available, an Arial-type font and a
Times-type font. Search for Arial Mirror.ttf, PrMirror.ttf or
RSTimesMirror,Timesmir.ttf, Chain5.ttf, Bassackwards.ttf

thanks Whohah,
but it won't fix my issues.
i am making an universal teleprompter, where user can load any font etc.
A. first thing, i wanted to know the possiblity to flip the RTF in one pass.

B. is it possible to capture the hidden RTB and print it on any DC.
   i tried getDC() BitBlt() where the hidden RTB is not possible to blt.
   and i tried WM_PAINT and WM_PRINT it works, but it always paint only the
  first page. (i need the actual scrolled content to be printed.)

C. i tried stretchblt() to Flip the RTF line by line in my display DC and
scroll.
   it too works well... but when user need Reverse scrolling (Top to Bottom)
   i don't know how to keep track of the Top Most line number.(Lines may
not be      equal height).

but some pro has done the job, very neatly. 5000 lines can be scrolled by
scroll bar.
(Forward or Reverse). and RTF Fliped.

pls. help me...

regards
soorya
