I'm having a lot of trouble getting Double Buffering to work for me. I've gone through about 30 sites but I can't seem to get it working for myself. I'm making a boardgame for a school project, and I have the characters (Who are just shapes with Happy Faces from the Visual Basic Powerpack OvalShape) and I have them moving with this
If intCurrentSpace(1) <> intTargetSpace(1) Then
intNextSpace = intCurrentSpace(1) + 1

I'd like to set a panel to double buffered to prevent the massive flickering that I've got while I slide panels in and out of my form, but I'm not sure how to.I've Googled it, but all I've found is snippets of code which I don't know how to use. It involves something about creating your own class with double buffering enabled and then creating a panel from that class.

I am having a similar issue with the double buffered set to true for a picturebox. I customized a picturebox control in vb.net where, a panel contains the picturebox.
Upon a mousedoubleclick of the picturebox, i scale the picturebox width wise a certain scalefactor, so that the picturebox is greater than the size of the panel. I am doing this for horizontal zooming and panning. With that said, the picturebox could become large in size.
At certain screensizes, after scaling the picturebox 6 times the size of panel, at fullscreen, i receive an error messsage implying "Not enough memory available to process the command."
However, when i turn off double buffered, i dont get the error, but i get much unwanted flickering.

Hi there..
Im hoping to update a label with the text "Buffering" and "Done" etc. according to the status of the Media Player i have embedded.
I can achieve this, but i do not know a way of constantly refreshing it so that the status is updated. Is there a way i can update it without the use of a timer?
In vb.net, im using objWriter.Write("playerA= "x"")as you can see im using double quotes inside double quotes, how do i skip it so the error doesnt show up?in php you make an "" to skip the string like ("playerA = "x" ")
View 6 RepliesIm trying to buffer data being written to a device on a com port. The equipment attached to it does not use any form of flow contol and if you write to much information to quickly it falls over. So I have had the following thoughts.
I would create a list of strings and when I wanted to write data to the com Port I would just add the string to the list. I would then have a Sub running its own thread to step through the list, write the string to the com port ,pause a fixed amount of time, remove string from list and repeat until the list is empty. Then keep looping the above.
Code I have so far is below
Private MsgList as new List (of string)
Private sub MsgPump ()

THis does work but If I add strings to MsgList to quickly it throws an exception.
This will be my first post on this site, so I thought I would make it a doozy. I have an web application on our site at work that allows users to login to the system, and submit filings for dockets that our state agency governs. Without getting to involve with what that means, they basically upload mostly .pdf files, but there are others that are acceptable to upload as well. The current system that is being used, uses a simple FileUpload and saving it to a folder on the d: drive of the webserver. I ran into a problem that with anyone outside the building/network, the upload is extremely slow and seems to be limited files no larger than about 1.4MB. There have been a few cases where larger file have made it through, but those ar few and far between. I've tried a couple different 3rd party components, but seem to run into the same limits. So, I install the FTP server on the box with the IIS and am trying to go the FTP route using ftpwebrequest.
Below is what I have put together so far:
Imports System.Net
Imports System.IO
Partial Class _Default
[CODE]...
This seems to work as it is at the moment, but I know it has a long way to go for catch exeptions, speeding it up...
1.) The first problem I have run into is if you try to upload to large a file, you get Out of memory error. I'm needing to change the buffer so that it is buffering chunks instead of the entire file. I've googled over and over again and seem to find several good options in C#, but can't seem to convert them to VB. So, could some one give me some idea how to take what I have and change the buffering to use smaller chunks.
2.) I need to catch an empty UploadFile field.
3.) I will eventually be changing this so that it handle multiple file uploads like my current system uses. (Did I mention that I'm new to the ASP.NET and have been programming in .ASP)
4.) As you will notice from my list of acceptable file types, I might have a problem with some needing to be upload as Binary and some not. So I'm going to have to come up with a way to test and change the Requested.UseBinary = False as needed.
I'm sure that I'll find other items as I progress or the big bosses will find other things that they want to add, but for now.... I know that given enough time, I will get all of these items worked out.
By the way, we have a network adminstrator that leave a lot to be desired and most IIS and now FTP I'm having to learn, implement and configure. I'm wondering if there is anything else that could be causing these limits in file size. Since I've tried 4 completely different forms of uploads and they all seem to run into the same limits, I thought there might be something in a router, firewall, server configuration.... that I might need to look into as well.
My datagridview flickers and is very slow while loading. I reflectored the datgridview from Microsoft and discovered that there is a back buffer property which is not visible from the winForm. How do I set this property?

View 7 RepliesI have a situation where I am handling both single & double mouse click events on a form. In both cases something has to be loaded, however when a double click occurs, I do not wish to execute the code attached to the single click event.Is there a way to intercept the mouse click's and check if double or single and then execute the right event appropriately?
View 2 RepliesI have a htpc project that I am working on. The main program loads dll plugins which are basically other win forms. On each of these forms, including the main program, I use a picturebox (a double buffered picturebox) for the background image and then draw everything on it by hand. Whenever I load the form from the dll and show it, I get a weird flicker. It looks like it is the previously used double buffer. Is there any way to clear the background double buffer before the flicker? Or am I going in the wrong direction?

For greater accuracy I should use a Decimal instead of a Double ( so I've been told ). Why then have Microsoft chosen to use DOUBLE for most of the functions that return a floating point value in the Math Class?

When i use VB6 i get the following outputs
961.605 * 100 = 96161
936.495 * 100 = 93650
929.295 * 100 = 92929
NOW..... When i do the above in vb.net 2005 i get the following
961.605 * 100 = 96160
936.495 * 100 = 93650
929.295 * 100 = 92930
How can i get the same output as the VB results. And i have tired it ! Type conversions, math functions, everything i can think of to get the same VB6 output !

For example, if I had a value of 6.5, (representing 6.5 feet), I'd want to separate that value into two values:
6 - 12" sections
1 - 6" section.
This initial value could be any number from 3-16, in .5 increments. (3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, etc.)
I'm trying to write a (WPF) program with Option Strict on, but I have a problem.
I have a Canvas with a background image, and I want to use the coordinates of where the canvas was clicked to determine what should happen next. (Something like this)
Dim p As Point = e.GetPosition(DirectCast(sender, Canvas))
Dim imgColorMap As System.Drawing.Bitmap = My.Resources.ColorMap
Dim c As System.Drawing.Color = imgColorMap.GetPixel(p.X, p.Y)
This gives me the error: "Option Strict disallows implicit conversion of 'Double' to 'Integer'" for p.X and p.Y I have tried several things, like Math.Round but strangely enough that also returns a double.
How do I cast/round these Double values to Integer, so I can use them in my GetPixel method?

I'm trying to finish up Visual Basic project for a class to create a playlist of files and to have them played.I have everything working if I single click the item from my list, and then click the play button in the WMP control portion of my form.I then want to add the functionality of double clicking the selection in the list and play with the following code:
[code]...
and nothing seems to happen.Digging into values of the debugger at the time I try to play the file:
[code]...
The sourceURL of the first item in the playlist is correct, but the duration is 0:00 (it should be 0:01). Since it seems there is no duration detected, nothing is played. Any idea what I missed? Again, if I single click the file, which sets the playlist as I want, then click PLAY on the GUI controls, it works fine.Also, is there any way for the program to detect when the song has changed when playing a playlist of multiple songs? I want to have label fields showing "Now Playing" information that would change info as the songs change, and maybe even change the item selected as things are played. I've not yet found a way to detect this change, only when the player starts and stops in general.
I am creating a program, if you double click the selected row in a datagrid, all data in that row will pop up in the next form. But I am having problem because whatever row I select, the first row is the one that always appear.
Here is my
Private Sub DataGridView1_CellContentClick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.CellContentClick
Dim row As DataRow = DirectCast(Me.BindingSource1.Current, DataRowView).Row
Using dialogue As New Form2(row)
dialogue.ShowDialog()
End Using
End Sub
Im creating a directory client system. I want to link my Form1 with Form2. For Example, if I click the first record, Form2 will pop-up and show all the details about the record selected.
I am making a program that shows a data of azimuth and elevation of a radar. Example:
Azimuth = 203.40
Elevation = 3.52
I need that the data will always be two number after the point. Even when the number ends with zero (203.40).But the Double by default removes the zero from the end of the number.
How can i format a double number to be like a integer?
for example:
i want to 12.34 to be rounded and displayed like 12 not 12.0.
because when i do String.Format("{0:n0}", 12.34) the number will be displayed as 12.0
I am trying to prevent a form from being moved or resized by the user. I am able to do that IF the user double clicks the form (I basically resize the form to full screen, andreposition it to 0,0). This is loads of flickering, but it works. However this seems to only work if the user double clicks the form. After loading, if you grab to top bar, you can move it.
