So I'm working on my webbrowser, and just managed to get the ol' tabs working for it, but how would I go about adding a shortcut like "CTRL + T"
I tried this:
Private Sub TabControl1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles TabControl1.KeyDown

I am using a 3rd part dll file (SolidWorks EModelView.dll, COM file) that has a version of 9.2.0.128. When I add it to the resources for the application, however, the AxInteropEModelView.DLL and InteropEModelView.DLL references show a version of 9.0.0.0. When I install the application on a client machine and try to run it, the application says it cannot find AxInteropEModelView.DLL version 9.2.0.128!

View 3 Repliesat my collage we have to rename all buttons and labels to represent the type of thing the button, label or text box etc do For instance if I had an OK button I would change the Text and (Name) of the button in the Properties section from Button1 to BtnOk, if it is a Label I have to change it to LblOk etc I was wondering if there is a way to change the default (Name) Button1 to (Name) Btn1 and so on so that I only have to click on the 1 and type my description, rather than having to type the abbreviation for the type of object every-time also ?
View 12 RepliesI often face the following problem : when I have a form with lots of controls on it (100 , 200 etc) and I change the name of a control , the IDE goes slow for a few seconds . This is very annoying when I have to change the name to a lot of controls . I believe this is happening because the IDE checks the forms , the code etc to see if there any problem after (re)naming the controls . Of course this is welcome because it prevents a lot of problems , but at the same time it creates some serious problems as well . Thus , I wonder , is there any way I could prevent the IDE from checking all those things in order not to reduce it's speed ? Of course I am talking temporarily . I believe that what I gain by letting it check after every name-changing , I also gain it if I only let it check once (at the end of the name-changing process) .

I am extremely new to visual basic and it is the first time i have ever tried to program anything. I am currently using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition which I downloaded for free off of the mictosoft website. Anyhow, to the question at hand: I was wondering how one would use keydown commands in VB express 2008. I have looked far and wide and have yet to find an answer to this. To simplify it to a specifit answer how would I move (or rather, slide), say, a picturebox to the left of the screen by holding down the left arrow key and have the picturebox stop moving after I released the arrow key. By simply seeing how the code is I should be able to do it for any other keydowns.
View 2 RepliesWell I'm currently in the middle of adding a few fine details to a program I'm busy with. Basically whats happening though is that I want to be able to delete some settings on the fly instead of individually, I also want to accomplish this through a simple key press.

I'm currently experimenting with a tile based dungeon crawler type game. When the WASD keys are pressed it will move in that direction, however if the key is held down it will move incredibly fast over the tiles, which is not what I want.Instead I want the player only to be able to move one tile at a time, or after each key press. Is there any way to do this with the KeyDown event or do I have to use KeyPress to make sure it only activates after each full key down & up?

View 15 Repliesi recently took a look at a game i tried to put together, and decided i wanted to finish it.The game is a shooter game that creates 'walls' that the player should not be able to move into. These walls are panels, and currently, im using one keydown event to move both players. This is not a good thing, because it makes it impossible for both players to shoot and move at the same time. The player should not be able to run through the walls
View 2 RepliesI try to catch the keydown event, but arrow keys don't fire this event, although I set KeyPreview = True. Arrow keys neither fire the KeyUp event. Not on the form or on any controls..
What is required to handle:
1. Arrow keydown or keyUp event with individual event handler based on mouse focus/hover (does the control have focus if mouse hovers on it, or it needs to be clicked?)
2. Mouse scroll events individually based on "mouse focus"
I don't actually need for the form... Since all the form is covered by controls.. But I need individually for different controls. Which are just buttons, labels and a chart control.
I have the following code which I use in another Form and it works perfectly. I copied the same code to another form, changed the controls, keys combinations, etc., but the keyboard shortcuts do nothing at runtime. None of the key combinations work, it throws no Exceptions,I put a MessageBox in the F1 KeyDown conditional, but it doesn't show. That tells me that it's not Handling the KeyDown Event.[code]
View 5 Repliesis there a way to make a textbox searchable like those Ctrl + F which can be found in most of the windows application?
I have googled and found some functions which is quite similar, but I have an issue which for eg.
My multiline textbox contains a lot of text with scrollbar, somehow the text I want to find is in the middle, when I click the find button, the word is indeed found and highlight, but the scrollbar still remain on top.
I wonder how can I make the find adjust the scrollbar as well?

View 4 RepliesI am trying to use the keydown/keyup events with buttons in the same project and it not working properly. I have 4 red boxes and when I press an arrow key the box should change to green according to which arrow key it corrosponds to. I have this part working fine, however only when there is nothing else in the project. When I add in say 3 buttons, Button1, Button2, Button3 and try runing the program instead of the correct red box changing to green, button outline just moves between buttons 1,2 and 3. I have tried turning tabstop off for the three buttons but that didnt work. how to read the keydown/keyup while still having buttions that can be pressed with a mouse?
