Usually I am a web developer so this is probably a very novice question. I recently made an app in VB2008, but I developed it in a huge reso (1920x1200). The person that will be using it still uses 800x600 reso. Is there any simple way I can resize the entire interface to fit any resolution? I didn't really think about it at all while I was making the program.
View 1 RepliesI have a very high screen resolution on my laptop: 1400x1050.My colleague tried it out on his laptop (which had lesser resolution), and the application did not fit on his laptop. The buttons were dragging out of the screen space.So, I want my application to automatically resize/adjust based upon the screen resolution.I don't want to use Maximized screen option and don't want to change user's pc settings.Unfortunatly I am not using Table Layout panel.
View 5 RepliesI am developing an application for the first time and need guidance.Developement Env: Visual Studio 2005 Pro, Visual Basic 2005 , Windows XPApplication Target: Windows XP & VistaI developed the application under a screen resolution of: 1680 x 1050 pixels. When the application is installed on any computer with lower resolution, my application window does not size properly and many of controls end up "messing up". How can I fix this issue?Also, I have noticed when I resize my application by dragging the bottom right-hand corner the application does not really re-size, it just gets covered. I am attaching 2 skeleton snapshots of my application below....Image before resize (1680 x 1050 pixels) Image after resize (1680 x 1050 pixels)

View 3 RepliesI have a picture box on a form that changes size as needed. Both by resizing the form and by code.How can I resize the form automatically if I resize the picturebox in code. The client area of the picture box should not be clipped.Right now the picture box is set to dock fill, but if the code resizes it, the form does not follow it. Is there a binding somewhere I can use?
View 2 RepliesI'm looking for help resizing a label's size and its font size based on its window size.That's to say when a window resizes, the label itself adjusts it font and background box to do the same.I know I'm triggering something on the Resize event of the form, but I don't know what.
View 2 RepliesI designed my form on my machine running 1282x1024. It works fine. I installed it on a client machine running 1024x768 and the form goes off the bottom edge of the screen. I set autoscale on the form to none, font, dpi, and inherited, changed my screen resolution and ran the program. It always looks the same, off the bottom os the screen. I tried Autoscroll on with no effect.
My reading of the documentation seems to indicate these two items are more for the system font size and the screen's dpi setting, not the screen resolution but I can't find anything else to work with. How do I make the form and everything on it change size based on the screen resolution?

View 6 RepliesCan we set the windows form resolution according to pc screen resolution and even the control should be adjusted...
eg.
My screen resolution is 1366 X 768
and my form size is 1254, 709....but I want it so set according to the screen and it will be dynamic...
if I transfer my project to some other pc with lower or higher resolution it should be adjusted....
and suppose I have few controls on the form...will that also be adjusted??
I had designed all forms on 1280/800 screen resolution.
i want set all forms resolution like the current screen resolution of the user,or make the form resolution is dynamic with each resolution of screen for
I am creating a project in VB.NET in which one of the reports require that the name of employees should be displayed as column names and whatever work they have done for a stated period should appear in rows below that particular column.Now as it is clear, the columns will have to be added at runtime. Am using an ODBC Data source to populate the grid. Also since a loop will have to be done to find out the work done by employees individually, so the number of rows under one column might be less or more than the rows in the next column.Is there a way to create an empty data table and then update its contents based on columns and not add data based on addition of new rows.

View 4 RepliesSo, my question is, how do I programmatically resize a Form beyond the boundries of the screen?If I try to simply set the Width property for example, it will only extend the width of the Form to the edge of the screen and not beyond that (even the width that I specified extends the Form beyond the screen's edge).
View 4 RepliesIs there a way to be able to resize a form from somewhere other then the lower left? Normal the form is 1080x1024 but i have a few people with laptops that are smaller and there are scroll bars, but it opens too big for the screen and the resizing can only be done in the lower right. Is there a way to change that without having to adjust my form layout?

How to make my forms resize automatically. here's the situation. I have my intro screen, which a user may want to maximise. Once this is maximised, the whole program should stay maximised. Again, if the user chooses to restore the window to its default size, the whole program should remain in that default size. However, once the user clicks the button "Press here to start" on the intro screen, the form automatically reverts to its original size if it was maximised. I also need to be able to stretch the contents in the correct ratios to fit the new screen size.

View 15 RepliesI have a listbox and a panel. In my forms resize event, my listbox is always form1.width * 0.5 and then the panel is also, but it doesnt work very well. They overlap at a certain point but in theory, they never should. Is there something wrong with my logic?
View 1 RepliesLets say I want to create an array with 20 elements all set to a default value (let's say, 0)
But later, during runtime, I might want to resize the array. I might make it larger, to support 30 elements. The 10 new elements will have the default value of 0.
Or I might want to make my array smaller, to just 5. So I delete the complete the existence of the last 15 elements of the array.

My full screen sized Form is locked in size when I reduce it in size by clicking on the "restore down" [ie] not to the minimized size. I mean "locked in size" by I cannot for instance "grab" it on a corner and to increase or decrease its size. I suspect the control is in the properties window but I cannot find it.

View 5 RepliesMy form keeps resizing after debugging. FormBorderStyle is FixedSingle and AutoScaleMode is None...what am I missing?
View 2 Replieswe all know how to dock or anchor controls so that they resize themselves accordingly when a form is resized. It works fine till we have rows of controls on left and right size of the form. But what if have three columns (Columns as in visual sense. I'm not talking about any column control containing other controls) of controls? For example a form having a bunch of controls in the left side, a bunch in the middle and a bunch in the right. There may be a few more bunches in the middle. Now while resizing the form, I want the controls to resize accordingly as well as change their positions to make space for the previous bunch of controls that are resizing.
I mean, while the user increases the form size horizontally, the controls of the second bunch should resize and at the same time they should move right because the controls of the first bunch are increasing horizontally too. When the user decreases the form size horizontally the same thing should occur in the reverse order. I can manage it somehow using nested split-containers but that's too cumbersome. I would like to know if there's some better way to achieve it, like setting some property etc.?
Currently, my application is comprised of:a Main Form On this Form, lies an array of User controls, (pardon my terminology, i believe the more proper VB.Net term is Collection of controls). Within these controls are pictureboxes that have distinct graphics drawn on them. When I run this program, no graphics are drawn in the pictureboxes or it appears the graphics are overwritten. Also, it seems that the Form resizes uncontrollably varying in size on the screen and hits an infinite loop. I use the Form_Resize function for updating the size of the form. What could be causing this problem. What is the Paint method used for?Currently, to draw graphics on the Pictureboxes i am using the graphics object. I have two pictureboxes within the usercontrol for toggling back and forth for a more fluid refresh upon property updates.
From my reading, vb.net does not allow the ability to create an array of controls on a form, so I attempted to create an array of controls dynamically to try and stay as close to my vb6 application as possible because my knowledge is limited. This works, from what i can tell I know that in the Upgrade wizard the VB6.Compatiblity reference was used to try and mimic an array of controls, but I wanted to steer away from that and program strictly using VB.Net commands.
