View 5 RepliesI am creating a small applicaiton for simulating dice roll. To simulate bounces I change the position of the picture randomly. Now to simulate more than one bounce, I used a for loop to continuously change the position of the picture box. But it is not happening as I planned, the form only displays the position of the last loop. I even tried using System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000) hoping to show the bounces, but even they show the last loop only.
For bounceCount As Integer = 1 To bounces
bounce(pb_dice1)
bounce(pb_dice2)
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000) 'I need to pause here and show the recent change in position then continue after 3 seconds
Next
the bounce method changes the position of the PictureBox.
How can I pause my for loop, display the newly positioned dices, and then continue after 3 seconds?
i've been searching for a way to delay a part of my program to let another part load, all i have found is threading sleep and one way which uses huge amounts of processing power. does anyone know a simple way to pause a part of script for a couple of seconds and then letting it run again? ( the problem is i need to get values from core temp, i also need to open it in the program. at the moment it say's "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." because it hasn't loaded by the time it is tried to be accessed. )

How do I make a pause between code lines? See code below. This just prints the word "Hello", I was hoping to put a delay between the letters to make it look more real. Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click, Button2.Click
SendKeys.Send("%{tab}") SendKeys.Send("H") SendKeys.Send("e") SendKeys.Send("l") SendKeys.Send("l") SendKeys.Send("o")
End Sub
I am facing an issue. Actually what i am doing is that i am tryin to store certain values in a database. A function is such that it calculates 5 values and stores them in a database. While storing them in the database it displays them in a textbox on the form. Now i want to display them one by one which it does. But it does it so fast that i can only see the last value that it enters in the database inside the textboxes.[code]...

View 9 Replies1) Why the pause button and also the pause command does not exist in VB 2010 Express?
2) I have some solutions under 2010. In 2 or 3, while debugging, I can change instructions without restarting the application. In others, I cannot change anything (Is like readonly), Looking in 'My Applications', Tab 'Debug', Option 'Configuration' I can choose several Options. In the applications I can debug, the default is 'Active (Debug)'; in the others is 'Active (Release)'. If I change the options, the word 'Active' remains attached to the original option.

View 2 RepliesI have a little project but ive come to an error. What it does: It goes to a site, fills a form and then submits it. But the submit is too fast. I want it to fill in info, then wait 3 seconds and then submit it.
Here is the
WebBrowser1.Document.All("user[screen_name]").SetAttribute("value", TextBox4.Text & intcount)
For Each element As HtmlElement In WebBrowser1.Document.All
If element.GetAttribute("className") = "submit button promotional" Then
element.InvokeMember("click")
End If
Next
I want it to have a little pause of 3 seconds after the intcount).
In a small vb.net application is use the shortcut's F1 and F3 to start/stop a timer countdown.In fact not the Keys itself are pressed, but i have to buzzers connected via USB who are simulating F1 + F3 when pressed.Precise the application runs on a karting track. When a driver enters the pit he/she will press the USB-Buzzer to start the countdown, pressing the 2nd buzzer when leaving the pit.Everything is going well, with one exception.After a longer period without activity the application will not react on first hit on the USB-Buzzer so they have to double press it to start the timer.
i already activate the winform with a timer in background (also center it on screen/center the mouse/making them topmost) but it seems the application falls into sleep and the first hit on the buzzer is the wakeup call for the form an the 2nd is forstarting the countdown.How to make sure that the application will start the timer on first hit.

View 3 RepliesWhat code would I use to make a progress bar last 4 seconds then switch to another form?
I can't find any good code for a progress bar besides on youtube which I don't know how to change the timing on it
[code] This code will make the progressbar increase by 1 tick every 0.25 seconds?But the thing I need help with is to make TextBox1.Text write out a message typed in it to TextBox2.Text when the progressbar is full. And when that's done I want the progressbar to go back to 0. [code]

View 16 RepliesFor a school project I need to make a timer with a bell sound that sounds every 60 seconds in VB, I cannot work out how to make the bell sound on the 60th second, I am not getting any errors in the VB console, so I assume that I am just using the wrong code or it is in the wrong place.
Public Class OSCETimerControl
Dim t As Integer
Dim s As Integer
Dim a As Integer
[CODE]..........
There are actually 3 text boxes (not yet coded the final one) one for minutes, one for seconds and the final one is for the bell sound which will not be visible.
I have created a splash screen and would like it to display for 5 seconds and then display the MainMenu form. The book I am following suggested using
Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000)
but it just makes the splash screen APPEAR after 5 seconds of nothing.
Out of curiosity, is there a way i can make a program stop or pause for a period of time (which i would choose) before continuing the code WITHOUT a timer.I think I've seen this done before, but I'm not positive.Also note that I'm talking about a forms application (not a console app if that would be any different.)
View 3 RepliesI have been asked by a friend to make a basic timer that counts down from 3 mins and 1 mins intervals but at the end of it i have a Critical message box pop up with the sound to alert him that the time is up.i have set it so that once ok on the msg box is pressed the timer restarts..I am Just wondering if there is a way to just make sound for x seconds then the timer restarts without any button pressing?[code]
View 2 RepliesI have 4 textboxes Hours, Minutes,Seconds,Milliseconds. When textboxes values are set the count down begins. So far everything works except the milliseconds

Timer1.interval = 100

I want to convert seconds such as 254565443 seconds to hours, minutes, and seconds and thought if I could remove the decimal and the numbers behind it and not change the number in front of the decimal then it would work.
dim seconds = 254565443
dim Hour
dim minute
