View 1 RepliesSeveral Methods To Simulate A Scrolling News Ticker On An Application
Jul 5, 2010I've been trying several methods to simulate a scrolling news ticker on an application. There is a lot of activity within the program, so I need to keep the ticker on a seperate thread.I have made a timer which when a tick is hit (in this case, every 100ms), executes a sub which removes one character from a label to simulate the ticker. This works quite well, although when the program does something else the ticker freezes up momentarily. I am wondering if someone could give me some advice on the best way to eliminate these freeze ups? How could I execute a new thread every 100ms to move the ticker? I was thinking of somehow using a threadpool for each time the a tick is hit on the timer, but I'm not sure how, or even if this can be accomplished.

TopMost Form - Messages Form Would Be Hidden By The Main Form
Nov 20, 2009I have a tool window that I want to stay above the main application form, but not stay on top of all windows forms. Similar to the floating properties window for visual studio - it always stays on top of the main VS window, but if I select another program, like internet explorer, the floating properties window will be behind internet explorer.
What I have is an application that has several forms that may be displayed at the same time. I have a Messages form that displays messages generated by the code in the form, that gives the status of the application. Obviously, the user would not normally be working on this form, but they may want it to be visible to see the status messages from the program (File saved confirmations, etc). So, my two options right now are I can set the form to be on top of all other windows forms or, when the user clicks on the main application form, the messages form would be hidden by the main form.

Load The Main Form Of A WPF So That A Separate Thread Goes And Gets Data From The Database While The Form Is In An Apartmentstate?
May 15, 2012How do i load the Main form of a WPF so that a seperate thread goes and gets data from the database while the form is in an apartmentstate? (drag-able / movable) I Know this is possible with opening a new window from your main form like this :
Private Sub openOrderWindow()
Dim OrderWindow As Orders = New Orders
OrderWindow.ShowDialog()
End Sub
[code]....
I've tried putting MyBase.ShowDialog() and .Show() and .9000+ other things The only benefit I've got out of using a seperate thread to load from the databse is i can see the screen right away (as oppose to it being a transparent box until it loads) but i cannot move it around or minimize it?is there any way to make it Movable while it loads?
