Encontrar la ubicación del cursor en un cuadro de texto en vb.net

Question

¿Cómo encuentra la ubicación del pequeño cursor parpadeante donde el usuario puede escribir, columna y fila? No pude encontrar esto en ninguna parte.

Answer 1

Si te refieres a WinForms, usa la propiedad SeletionStart para acceder a la posición actual de la carretilla. Aquí está el código para obtener el índice, la línea actual y la columna actual.

int index = myTextBox.SelectionStart;
int currentLine = myTextBox.GetLineFromCharIndex(index);
int currentColumn = index - myTextBox.GetFirstCharIndexFromLine(currentLine);
