Capturing Which Mouse Button Is Clicked On A NotifyIcon?
Dec 20, 2009
I have a NotifyIcon (named TrayIcon). When I right-click it I get a menu. When I left-click it I want the form to be shown when it's minimized or hidden. But I can't find a way to get the latter done.
Private Sub TrayIcon_MouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TrayIcon.MouseClick
If e.Equals(MouseButtons.Left) Then
Me.Show()
End If
End Sub
When I debug, "e" shows "almost" same value ({X = 0 Y = 0 Button = Left{1048576}}) as"MouseButtons.Left" (Left{104875}) in the quick-watch window, still the Me.show is passed. I think this has to do with the X and Y, and "MouseButtos.Left" is of the type "System.Windows.Forms.MouseButtons" and "e" is of the type "System.EventArgs", but I have no idea how to get the right comparison.It's partially working though. When I leave out the if statement and only the Me.Show() is left, both right and left-click make the form pop-up. With the if statement, it never shows up.
I've got a NotifyIcon that signals downloadable application updates. I want the download page to open on a Left Click on the NotifyIcon and on a Left Click on the NotifyIcon balloon (on screen for 10 seconds). However, when I handle the BalloonTipClicked event I can't figure out if it was a Left or a Right click. Thus, while the balloon is still on screen and the user Right clicks on the icon, I get both the popup menu and the download page opening. How do I detect the Right mouse button was used?
I am writing program in VB 2003 .Net and Framework .Net 1.1 I'm using NotifyIcon class without form.
Private WithEvents _niTray As System.Windows.Forms.NotifyIcon Private Sub _niTray_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles _niTray.Click Console.WriteLine("{0} {1}", sender.ToString, e.ToString) End Sub
How i can detect which mouse buttons (left or right) cliks?
I'm just wondering if it's possible to add the mouse when capturing the screen or monitor in vb.net?
because I'm doing a project that would record the screen and I'm actually successfull doing that by capturing the screen and include it in a timer, but my only problem is the mouse or the cursor isn't showing.
below is my sample code. Dim ScreenSize As Size = New Size(TotalScreenWitdh, MonitorHeightArray(0)) Dim BMP As New Bitmap(TotalScreenWitdh, MonitorHeightArray(0))
how I can detect the mousedown,mouseup etc even outside my application using vb.net? I have an API here,but,doesnt seem to work the way I expect it to..
VB
Private Declare Function GetAsyncKeyState Lib "user32" (ByVal vKey As Long) As Integer Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
[Code]....
Should that API be modified to be used or something?? or what should I do to capture the mouse click events..both left and right buttons...
I'm working a program where I need to capture the mouse down even at the form level. I need this to happen regardless of where the mouse is clicked. The standard mouse event (see below) works fine if the mouse isn't over a control. However, when the mouse is over a control, the control gets the event before the form. I can generate an event to capture the mouse event for every control and the pass the event on, but that is ugly and requires way to much maintenance. Isn't there a way to tell vb that all mouse events go to the form?
how i can make a button (UpdateBtn) in my toolstrip Act like a NotifyIcon so i can use the BalloonTip features i have looked on goggle all over and cant find a single thing about it (unless im looking for the wrong thing) im thinking it either cant be done or no one has bloged about it yet
Ok i got the mouse to click, now i need to get like a IF statement for the left and right mouse click, e.g IF Rightmouseclick then do whatever and i need a leftmouse click one aswell, i found this on another thread but it doesn't work??
I want to detect when my touchpad is clicked! I normally use a usb mouse, so I don't use the touchpad for anything. Instead I'd like to make it possible to perform an action in .NET, when the touchpad is clicked. This way I can use it as a shortcut: One tap and something cool happens.
Is this possible, and if yes, any clue how? I'd prefer if it could be working in VB.NET or C#. My theory is that I'd have to make a mousehook, which then somehow determines which device the click is coming from. If the click is determined to be from the touchpad, then cancel the click and doWhatever().
I've been working on a GUI in WPF which I'm fairly new to, having only used Windows Forms up until now. So far, my GUI is very simple: it contains two rectangles, each of which drops a shadow. The shadow creates an effect of rectangles "floating above the canvas" so to speak.
When one of the rectangles is pressed, the myRectangle.MouseDown event is handled such that the shadow goes away, thus creating an effect of the rectangle being pressed down onto the canvas, like a button.Similarly, when mouse button is released, the myRectangle.MouseDown event is handled such that the shadow reappears and the rectangle "floats" again. This behavior make them resemble buttons. Note, there a reasons I want them to be rectangles and not custom buttons.
[Code]...
If the pointer leaves a rectangle while mouse button is pressed, I'd like shadow to reappear. This is arguable simple, because theoretically in this case, any time myRectangle.MouseLeave is raised, the shadow should come back on, even if it was already there.If the pointer left a rectangle when mouse button was pressed, then came back while before the button was released, I want the shadow to disappear again. This one is what gives me problems. No idea how to do this.
I am new to VB.NET, Now i'm working with Events in VB.NET, I have two event methods, Mouse Click and Mouse Down for a single button in a form, I have displyed a message in each of these methods but only mouse down event is triggered. Why Mouse Click is not triggered? Similiarly I Did the same for Mouse Enter and Mouse Move for a particular button, in this case both the events are triggered.
I was wondering if there is anyway I can get mouse coordinates when I click on a mouse button inside a listbox? I know how to do it in the form but when I click inside a listbox nothing happens.
I'm currently debugging a form that sets a flag when the mouse button is pressed, then clears the flag when the mouse button is released. As long as the mouse button is pressed, the user can move the mouse around and a few things happen depending on where they move. One of the things that happens is that a timer starts, or stops, and a few things change color depending on the mouse position. The timer starts when it should, then stops when it should, but once stopped, it is not re-starting when it should. I can verify that MouseMove events are getting through, because coloring changes as I move the mouse, as it should. This would be a simple thing to debug...except that it requires the darn mouse button to be down, and it uses the mouse move event. Anybody who has put a breakpoint in a mouse move event handler knows the issue: There are THOUSANDS of them. Worse yet, since the mouse button is necessary for switching to the IDE, as well as setting a breakpoint (technically, a keyboard shortcut could do this if I could shift focus), I can't wait for the problem to happen, then switch to the IDE and set a breakpoint to see what is happening then.Does anybody have any tips or techniques for debugging in mouse move events when the mouse button is down and has to stay that way? As it is, I'm going to have to write some funky code into the method just so that I have a place to get a breakpoint when I need it without breaking on every one of the mouse move events.
I have numerous buttons on a form, one each to select a playing card (52 buttons). When the Card(button) is selected I want to highlight it by changing the border from black to Red, then if reclicked from change back from red to black, easy enough (if then else). So that I do not have to copy this code 52 times I wanted to create a module as follows:
Sub ChangeButtonBorderColor(ByRef ButtonName) If (Equals(ButtonName.BorderBrush, Brushes.Red)) Then ButtonName.BorderBrush = Brushes.Black
How to make a link button visible after another button has been clicked in asp.net(vb) in button_click()
it says error as "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
i've done this in my code
Protected Sub InsertButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Dim receipt As LinkButton = FormView1.FindControl("LinkButton1") ' receipt.Enabled = "true"
I have already done the creation of button and the dragging of button at runtime already.But now i need to know how do i save the last dragged button on the form and also detect the name of the last clicked button.so lets say i now drag a button to coordinates 25,254. so when i exit the form and the next time i launch it, the button will still be at 25,254. and this one will go on for the number of button i created like 100. so when i launch the form the 100 button will be at the exact position where i last saved them.the second part is lets say i created button1 and button2 on the form in runtime. so when i clicked the first button, it should display button1. and if i clicked on button 2, it should say button2. same goes for like 100buttons.
I have a vb.net application, and I want to know how to find the coordinates of the pointer (mouse) when it is clicked on the form. Not much else to say, so I'll leave it like that.
i have a form with 10 designated slots for letter to be entered (Like the free letter spaces on hangman), above these are 10 adjacent labels with a full stop "." as the text value, now i have created a button, Q to detect whether there is a. in the first box, and if there is enter the letter Q (Letter1.text = "Q"), elseif check the same for the second box. Now my problem is when i click the button, it still does nothing and letter 1 remains "." instead of "Q". also how would i end this string of else ifs? as in what if every text box is full then do what?
I am developing an application in which there are more than one buttons and i want to add some code on the click of every button, But I wished to know that which button has to be clicked by the user and after that some code will be executed and that code will be different for different buttons.
Public Class frmBroadwaytickets 'Defining the cost per ticket Const _cdecticketprice As Decimal = 153.5D
[Code]....
My btndisplay cost works, but my btnexitprogram does not close the application when clicked. I've ensured the button is correctly named and enabled. But when I click it does not close out, I use this simple code in other programs and it works.
I have a calculate button that, if clicked more than once adds the total of what I previously had to the new total as I am using a loop. I was thinking that I could get around this by only allowing the button to be clicked once, and if the user attempts to do this more than once a messagebox will appear saying that you can only calculate the price once and the form resets but i can't seem to get any code working.
how can I get this .bat command to run after my button is clicked I can make it like, "Run a certain .bat when button is clicked" , but I don't want that because people can go inside my .bat and hack my IP. So I was wondering is there a way I can put that .bat command into my VB 2010 Express
