anybody know how to set the color of links in an rtb using EM_AUTODETECTURL?
While your on this topic, Anyone know how to make the links clickable?, I mean like i can click on them, and the hand mouse icon appears, but nothing executes
Camel:
first off send the EM_SETCHARFORMAT message
lResult = SendMessage( // returns LRESULT in lResult
(HWND) hWndControl, // handle to destination control
(UINT) EM_SETCHARFORMAT, // message ID
(WPARAM) wParam, // = (WPARAM) () wParam;
(LPARAM) lParam // = (LPARAM) () lParam;
);
specify the SCF_ALL bit for wParam and create a CHARFORMAT2 struct for lParam. In your CHARFORMAT2 struct don't forget to set the CFE_LINK bit for dwEffects
More information at:
EM_SETCHARFORMAT:

CHARFORMAT2 struct:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/commctls/richedit/richeditcontrols/richeditcontrolreference/richeditstructures/charformat2.asp
eh?
Dim cf2 As CHARFORMAT2
With cf2
SendMessage txtChat.hwnd, EM_GETCHARFORMAT, SCF_ALL, cf2
.dwEffects = .dwEffects Or CFE_LINK
.crTextColor = vbWhite
.crBackColor = vbRed
.cbSize = Len(cf2)
SendMessage txtChat.hwnd, EM_SETCHARFORMAT, SCF_ALL, cf2
End With
should work.. does it?
nope, links are still black

Try removing the CFE_AUTOCOLOR effects bit. A word of caution, however: IIRC, RichEdit gets the link colors from some user preference setting somewhere, so you should probably ask the user if it's OK to override what they have set for everything else.
I also attempted this with no luck, anyone have any other ideas?
CHARFORMAT2 cf;
cf.cbSize = sizeof(CHARFORMAT2);
SendMessage(chat,EM_GETCHARFORMAT,SCF_ALL,(LPARAM)&cf);
cf.dwEffects = CFE_LINK;
cf.dwMask = CFM_LINK | CFM_COLOR;
cf.crTextColor = 0xFFFFFF;
SendMessage(chat,EM_SETCHARFORMAT,SCF_ALL,(LPARAM)&cf);
For an odd reason some Windows XP Themes change the color of the link. I know the Silver theme does and the other two do not.

yes, but as skywing said, there is a default color some place you can set for all un-named richedit control's, thats why he warned about overriding it for other programs...
