Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the HideSelection property. To run the example, paste the following code in a form. Call the InitializeTextBox method in the form's constructor or Load method.

   //Declare a textbox called TextBox1.
internal:
   System::Windows::Forms::TextBox^ TextBox1;

private:

   //Initialize TextBox1.
   void InitializeTextBox()
   {
      this->TextBox1 = gcnew TextBox;
      this->TextBox1->Location = System::Drawing::Point( 32, 24 );
      this->TextBox1->Name = "TextBox1";
      this->TextBox1->Size = System::Drawing::Size( 136, 20 );
      this->TextBox1->TabIndex = 1;
      this->TextBox1->Text = "Type and hit enter here...";
      
      //Keep the selection highlighted, even after textbox loses focus.
      TextBox1->HideSelection = false;
      this->Controls->Add( TextBox1 );
   }
//Declare a textbox called TextBox1.
internal System.Windows.Forms.TextBox TextBox1;

//Initialize TextBox1.
private void InitializeTextBox()
{
    this.TextBox1 = new TextBox();
    this.TextBox1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(32, 24);
    this.TextBox1.Name = "TextBox1";
    this.TextBox1.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(136, 20);
    this.TextBox1.TabIndex = 1;
    this.TextBox1.Text = "Type and hit enter here...";

    //Keep the selection highlighted, even after textbox loses focus.
    TextBox1.HideSelection = false;
    this.Controls.Add(TextBox1);
}
'Declare a textbox called TextBox1.
Friend WithEvents TextBox1 As System.Windows.Forms.TextBox

'Initialize TextBox1.
Private Sub InitializeTextBox()
    Me.TextBox1 = New TextBox
    Me.TextBox1.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(32, 24)
    Me.TextBox1.Name = "TextBox1"
    Me.TextBox1.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(136, 20)
    Me.TextBox1.TabIndex = 1
    Me.TextBox1.Text = "Type and hit enter here..."

    'Keep the selection highlighted, even after textbox loses focus.
    TextBox1.HideSelection = False
    Me.Controls.Add(TextBox1)
End Sub

Remarks

You can use this property to keep text highlighted in a text box control while another form or a dialog box has focus, such as a spelling checker dialog box.
