I have a scrollable panel that has a "list" of controlls. However when you scroll, it kinda "lags" with a kinda "motion blur" Does anybody have a solution to my problem?
View 1 RepliesI am using a label to display a song for an mp3 player. I wanted to scroll the text inside the label for anything that is longer than the label width. I figured out the width of the label and if the width of the text inside the label is longer. But I have no idea how to turn this into subtracting parts/pixels of the text currently displayed and how to append the subtracted parts to the end of the new text.

Intent: To teach the user how to create a control that scrolls text at an adjustable speed across the control.What you'll need:Visual Studio.NET (2002 or 2003) - The version I built this with is 200325 Minutes of free timeI don't remember what prompted me to create this control, except that I was sitting at my desk one day and thought to myself?
1. First open the Visual Studio IDE.
2. Select 'New Project'.
3. From the project languages, select 'Visual Basic'.
4. From the project types, select 'Windows Control Library'.
5.Once the initial project has finished loading there's a couple of things that you may want to do first. The first one being, change the control name to something that means something. "UserControl1" just won't do, so in the 'Solution Explorer' right click on the "UserControl1.vb" file and click 'Rename'. Without removing the '.vb' file extension, type the name of the control. In this case lets call it 'ScrollingMarquee.vb'.
6. Now back to the control design area. Add a timer control to your project from the toolbox. Set the enabled property to 'True' and set the interval to 100. Right click on the control area (the actual control itself, not the timer) and click on 'View Code'. This will take you to the code area of project.
7. Enter the code as is written displayed below.
Code:Imports System.DrawingImports System.Drawing.Drawing2DImports System.ComponentModel
Public Class ScrollingMarque Inherits System.Windows.Forms.UserControl
#Region " Windows Form Designer generated code "
[code]....
Just want to make sure that each time we move the control or resize it,'it re-renders correctly.Invalidate()End SubEnd Class8.Next select 'Build -> Build ScrollingMarquee'.9. Once you have any bugs worked out (there shouldn't be any, but in case there are), you can change the build mode to release and rebuild the control for use in your projects.

View 11 RepliesI have a panel wich inherits from FlowLayoutPanel. I add a lot of picturebox to it. I allow the user to navigate through them with arrow keys. Since I have a lot of PictureBox, most of them doesn't appear at the visible rectangle of the panel. I want this panel to scroll to the selected control when user selects it. For select a PictureBox I made a class wich inherits from it and override the OnPaint sub. I also have a field m_selected to determine whether the PictureBox is selected or not. On OnPaint sub if this field is set to true, I draw an orange border to notify the user that this control is selected, otherwise I draw a simple black one. In the panel I also have a m_currentsel field to save the control wich is actually selected. When user selects a control this field contains the selected control.
View 2 RepliesI have a tab control with two tab pages. One page has the auto scroll enabled since there is to much content in the page. The middle mouse wheel doesn't scroll the scroll bar; I have to actually click and hold the scroll bar and drag it down to scroll. Is there a property to allow this?

The problem is that this works perfectly if I use the left and right arrows and it also works perfectly if I use the scroll bar's slider SLOWLY. If I scroll using the slider and move it quickly then the scroll gets out of sync.The small change and large change are both set to 1 and maximum is set to 8

I would like to add in a progress bar and a status (label control) which will display what system doing after user click a button. There are few status: Eg: Importing data, Verifying data, Generating Report
Part of my coding:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Private Sub cmdImport_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdImport.Click
ProgressBar1.Visible = True
[Code]....
lblStatus is the label which will display the current status. But.. while user click the button, "Verifying Data File" is not displaying. After the system complete the whole progress, lblStatus only display the text. May I know any setting / bug I need to attend?
I have a User Control with a label on it. I have a Master Page that I have dropped the User Control on. I have other .aspx pages that use the master page that has the user control on it.
What is the best way to change the text of that label on the user control from the .aspx page?
I don't understand why my Label and Text controls are aligned when placed on a winform in design mode, but when I run the application the Label and text controls are uneven and spreaded apart. I using VB .Net 2008.
I tried adjusting the TextAlign property on the label control but the problem still exist.
I am adding controls to a page programatically in the code behind. I add an asp:Label and set it's Text value. I add an asp:TextBox and set it's Text value. Both Text values are returned in the Response and displayed in the browser. All fine so far.
The user performs an action that causes a postback. I re-load the dynamically added asp:Label and asp:TextBox. When the Response is returned to the browser, only the asp:TextBox Text value is displayed. The asp:Label Text value is not. If I inspect the HTML I can see the asp:Label control (rendered as an HTML span tag) but no value.
How can I get the code to automatically re-load the Text value of an asp:Label on each postback? Why is the behaviour different for an asp:Label and an asp:TextBox? I do not want to have to manually re-set the Text value on each postback.
Here is some code similar to what I am doing (placeHolderNameplates is an asp:PlaceHolder control on the aspx page): Protected Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init
If Not Page.IsPostBack Then

I'm using VB.net 2005 to code an application that will be a used as a "digital sign" to report factory production levels and will be displayed on a 55 inch wide screen LCD TV/display. So I am putting my controls in a TableLayoutPanel control so they will expand to use the whole TV screen and can be view from a distance. (I have my FormBorderStyle = None and WindowState = Maximized.) My Form is set to AutoSize = True and AutoSizeMode = GrowOnly. My TableLayoutPanel AutoSize = True, AutoSizeMode = GrowOnly, and Dock = Fill. I'm using Label controls to display the text on the display and they are set to AutoSize = False and Dock = Fill. When I run the app. the Gauge control expands on my 19" monitor like it should, but none of the Label Text expand. How do I get the Labels to enlarge / Fill there area? Is that not possible?
View 1 RepliesI'm looking to put a few labels on a form but the text that they will display will not be static. Instead they should be dynamic as the values used will be either the value of a specific Environment variable or from a value stored in an array. These values will change depending on which user runs the application. How do I achieve this?

When run the code Form1 load together with Form2.On Form2 I have Label1.I need that Label.Text flicker or blinking.
I've implemented the localization in my windows application with no problem for the label or command button which have a fixed text.
My problem is related to the label which text is merged with some variables or object properties.
E.g.: vb label1.text = "There are " & myDataGridView.Rows.Count.ToString() & " items"
So, how can I set (if it's possible) the localization for these labels? I've this kind of assignment in modules and not in the form. It's possible to set a resources file also for modules?
1. How to make content in a label scroll horizontally from the right to the left? And I want it to loop nonstop so that it can keep scrolling once and once again nonstop.
2. For example, my label is multi-lined and has line A and B. What about if I want:
Line A scroll from the bottom to the top -> Line A pauses for 10 seconds(for users to read it)-> after that line A dissapears itself -> line B scrolls up -> Line B pauses for 10 seconds(for users to read it)-> after that line B dissapears itself-> (back to the first step)
*Same, I want it to loop for unlimited times.
I want to be able to kinda like have a timer that will get an image off my Hard Drive, and upload it online, so that all I'd have to do is download the image, even if it's been written over, I want to be able to broadcast an image from my hard drive, using only my IP Address.
127.0.0.1 is my IP Address.8888 is the port.Somthing like if you were to goto http://127.0.0.1:8888/update.html or Update.Jpg If YOU were to go to this address on your machine, you could see the image... Of coarse, it will probably be an image of which I was able to get from Printing my Screen image, and then saving it as like C:Test.Jpg, but the Timer would get my Desktop Image, or Print My Screen and Save it and Overwrite the Test.jpg image on the C Drive... Ya know what I'm talking about?

So I am supposed to be choosing a final project for my visual basic 2008 class. I cannot help but remember an old high school classmate from web design class who made a program that used the speaker built into the motherboard (or whatever makes the start up beep when you turn computer on) to time the beeps to play simple songs. It was very funny and amusing and I was wondering if anyone had seen something similar or knows how to go about making one?
