How do I set the color and font in a RichEditBox?

Use the SelectionFont and SelectionColor properties to set the font and color of a RichEditBox. The following code will set the "selected text" to a blue-italic-verdana font set.

Note. If no text is selected then any all new text will be blue-italic-verdana within the RichEditBox.

 
RichTextBox1.Focus(); 
 
RichTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Blue; 
 
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = new Font ("Verdana", 12, FontStyle.Italic);
