ASP.NET Theming Programmatically Image Paths
Mar 14, 2011
We have a multilingual site, or culture-sensitive, and some of the static content now needs to be targeted; for this I'm using themes as it seems the easiest way to achieve what I want, but I can't for the life of me get the images to pick up.I'm setting the theme in code-behind, and thought at first that maybe this was the issue, but on checking up it looks like I'm doing the right thing (setting on Pre-Init).I expect to be able to reference images using relative paths where App_Themes/ThemeName/ is automatically resolved, such as:[code]In the above code, CurrentSite. Culture Name would be a language culture name (for example, en-gb, or nn-no) that does have an existing corresponding theme folder containing all required resources.Pages do have EnableTheming set to True. Also, I have tried removing the theme-setting code and applying the theme in the page using Theme="en-gb" to no avail.Is there anything immediately evident as to why the URLs aren't resolved?

I'm developing a shell (think LiteStep or SharpE) for Windows using Visual Basic .NET, and I have reached the point where I will need to get into theming other windows that doesn't run inside the shell itself.Modifications I will need to do is to change their title bars - probably using some kind of API call - to match the design I've integrated into the shell itself, if that is even possible. Having Aero on windows running in a shell that doesn't even look like Aero at all isn't very pretty.) Is there a chance I might be able to do this, or will I have to use a 3rd party application and/or develop my own little programming language for shell-specific applications (which would be a pain)?

I am working on my media program which utilizes the amazon ecs web service. So far it does a search and pulls a list of image url's for the dvd covers.
Is what I want to do is take those image urls and somehow feed them into a datagridview, so that the user can scroll through the images and choose the right one.
Here's what I have so far
Code:
If item.IsSetLargeImage() Then
Dim largeImage As Image = item.LargeImage
If largeImage.IsSetURL() Then

I'd like to draw an image (like a bar code) pixel-by-pixel in a Visual Basic .NET WPF Application and ...
show the image in my UI
copy it to the clipboard
save it as a .BMP-File.
It should also be possible to add Paint-like editing features later.What is a good approach? System.Drawing.Bitmap works internally, but the only way I could show it is to convert it to an ImageSource and show it inside an Image control. Is there any better way?

I'm attempting to write a solution so that my user's can "watermark" their Images with their Company Logo. I've got the actual watermarking part done and working so now I'm creating the "upload logo" feature so that they can provide me with the Logo they wish to appear watermarked onto their Images.I'm using VB.NET and this will probably end up in a Web Service that accepts the Logo JPG file, and returns the "altered" Logo. What I need to happen in this Web Service is:
1) Gray-scale the image. Which I have working as well, thanks to this article.
2) Make the background transparent (so the logo looks clean when watermarked onto an image). This is where I'm stuck.
I think for the most part, any logos that are uploaded will have a generic white background but I can't assume that. Is there a way to somehow detect the background of an image or the background colors, so that I may make those colors transparent?So basically what I need is just a way to determine the background on an Image or even just the background colors so that I may make them transparent.

My development machine runs Windows XP, but the target machine runs Windows 2000 with .NET 2.0.I've set my compile options to compile 2.0, which is fine.However, I have some references which are causing issues.For example, Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.dll - in VS2008 the path is shows as the C:Windowsassembly folder which works fine. Until the app is built and run on the target machine and fails:Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture-neutrl, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.Presumably because on Windows 2000 the assembly folder is C:WINNT.I cannot work out how to target the WINNT folder for my references.

The end result I am looking for is I want to add File Paths to a CheckedListBox. I only want certain file extensions and if a file by the same name but a specific extension exsists allready then I do not want to add those files to the CheckedListBox.
Example: I am only wanting these filetypes in my CheckedListBox (.gif, .tif, .bmp, and .jpg).However if the filetype (.PNG) allready exsists with the same filename (i.e. image. png and image.jpg) I then do NOT want to add that JPG. Only files that do not allready have a PNG with the same name. (I hope I was able to make this clear)
My current code will add the filetypes (.gif, .tif, .bmp and .jpg) to the CheckedListBox. However I do not know how to have the code only add the files that don't have the PNG.Here is my current code:[code].....

I designed an app that basically gets paths to servers I have admin rights to, I am doing such things such as checking available space on the servers etc., the problem I am having is my app only works if I manually login via something like (start, run, \server) and supply my admin username and password just to store that authentication.How do I code this so it prompts the user in my program ONE time for all 5 servers (they all use the same username and password)

I have file paths such as:
' Any number of folders before and after the Project name
C:acdProject1efgsomefile.someextension'
How would I:Extract only the path before the project name?
C:acd
Extract the path after the project name?
efgsomefile.someextension
Note: Of course given the filename.Would Split be better or some complicated regex?

I've been trying to wrap my head around using the registry, but I have to say I'm a little lost. Is there a way I can use a "path structure" to write to a specific key, rather than using it as a dim and storing it in memory?

I am preparing a project for distribution, and I need advice as to how to establish my paths to some of the dynamic data elements; sound clips, external imagery and a database.I am reading the environment.startuppath, but it's pointing all the way in to the debug folder, whixh I'm sure I'm not going to be using when I publish things for distribution.I was hoping for something that could establish a relative base folder, and then just reference a few subfolders from there.

I wrote an application that shows about 2000 GPS track segments on a map (ATV trails in Quebec). The user may select and zoom an area of the map, then print a detailed map that includes the GPS tracks:
When I print the map, I use the full resulution of the printer, so a 8.5x11 lanscape page on a laser printer generates a 6260 x 4800 bitmap. If I preview or print the entire page WITHOUT showing the GPS tracks, it appears / prints within 5-10 seconds.
When I include the GPS tracks, the preview is very fast (5-10 seconds) but the actual printing now takes over 10-12 MINUTES! I fail to see why the printing becomes SO SLOW when I include my GPS tracks.
My map only includes 3 graphics path, which were defined only once at the maximum zoom level:
- One RED path that includes all the tracks valid all year long (AnnualPath)
- One GREEN path that includes all the summer tracks (SummerPath)
- One BLUE path that includes all the winter tracks (WinterPath)
The printing is slow only when I add the 3 graphicspath to my printing output and looks like this:
' e = Drawing buffer of the Print function Factor = adjustment factor between the zoom level used when the graphicspath were defined and the actual printing zoom level
' HorzOffset = Horizontal adjustment to align the graphicspath with the output buffer VertOffset = Vertical adjustment to align the graphicspath with the output buffer
[Code]...
Anyone has an idea why adding a graphicspath to a printed page drastically slow it down? What should I do to imprime the printing speed? I have been baging my head on my monitor for the past week and I fail to see how I can fix that problem.

I have this code for drawing a path.
Dim map As New Bitmap(l1.Size.Width, l1.Size.Height, l1.CreateGraphics)
Dim nextPoint As Point
Using g As Drawing.Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(map)
Dim dPath As New Drawing2D.GraphicsPath
For i As Integer = 0 To path.Count - 1
[Code] .....
l1 is a Label. When I call this it draws the path fine, but when I call it again it draws another path but doesn't get rid of the first path. Basically, I only want one path on the Label at a time.

I have a problem with my code. My code is using the fileupload control to browse for a filename when you add a filename it processes it and the code runs fine on when it lives on local host, but when I put the code on our prodution server it cannot find the filenames listed by user.
For example if I use the upload control to browse to B:MISCH IntiveRPTTOFL_3.csv and the code lives on my localhost which know what that file path means it works, but if the code is moved to a production server it may or maynot know what B:/ is or B:/ maybe mapped to something else. Even if I am browsing to a file on my C drive it will work on if the code is on the machine that the C drive is on, but it will not work if the code is on another machine because obviously that file wouldnt be on that C drive.

I want to check if two directories are pointing to the same place. Of course string based compare can be done easy but I also want to check for the situation in which a mapping points to the same location. Hence if m:dataapplicApicturesjpg n:applicApicturesjpg point to the same location it must be flagged. I have already searched I know there is something like GetFileInformationByHandle but I don't want to create a file, so I have not got a handle.

I'm in need of a way to find the original path of a substituted (Virtual) drive, set with the subst command.
Start -> Run -> type "cmd"
[code]
subst l: c:\scripts
[\code]
This create a virtual drive that points to c:\scripts\
in .net an easy way to get all the drives on the computer is using the Drive property of My.Computer.FileSystem. However, this will give you the current substitued name of the drive. Is there a way to find the original path?
I get the path of the virtual drives mapped to network folders using WNetGetConnectionA of mpr.dll, However, this only resolves mapped network drives.
I currently don't have away to find the original path of LOCAL virtual drives.

I'm writing an app where a user selects a folder on the network for a job to deposit output into.The person setting up the job will not necessarily be the same person who runs the job and that the job will not be ran on the same machine so I need to keep the path in UNC format. I can get the user to "see" the network when the FolderBrowserDialog runs by pointing the route folder at the desktop folder.
The issue is that if the network share is local even though the user has selected the folder through the network folders it returns the local path!! Which of course means that when the job is run on the other machine it can not find the folder specified.
E.g. The user on machine1 selects the network share \machine1jobsmyjob but the dialog returns C:work2010JobsClientjobsmyjob. machine2 then runs the job and looks for C:work2010JobsClientjobsmyjob and can not find it then throws an error.
As you can see from the above example I can't just replace c: with the local machine name as the share may not be in the root of the drive. I did think about parsing the text and changing it to \machine1c$work2010JobsClientjobsmyjob but this would mean I'd have to allow all the users to have admin access to our servers which is a non starter.if there is a way to switch off this behaviour in the dialog?
dim myDialog as new FolderBrowserDialog
With myDialog
.Description = "Browse to Job destination"
.ShowNewFolderButton = True
