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?
I have two custom action listers. One that handles Mouse.Click and one that handles Mouse.MouseDown. My question to you is, can I delay the mouse down event so that it does not intefere with the code of the Mouse.Click event? I have tried adding a timer and waiting x amount then setting a bool value to true, but the code executes to fast and it skips the other code.
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 have a solution in Vb.NET 2008 windows Form with ToolStripMenuItems, but I need to implement menu navigation without any mouse intervention.I only found mouse events In ToolStripMenuItems, MenuStrip, etc.All MenuStrip and ToolStripMenuItems are created programatically, reading user permissions from Database, then add a handler to manage the events, but the client don't want mouse interaction, he wants only keyboard inputs only ![code]
Is there any event for Right Mouse Click on Visual Basic?I wish to have a code or any thing so it allows a specific code to be done while Right Click while if Left Click another code will be done
I have a picturebox on the form, when it is clicked, I want the picturebox to fit the size of the form, which can be done by pic.SizeToFit = true So, the picturebox will automatically change the size.But after that, I want to set pic.SizeToFit = false , I need this because the picturebox is a user control which has a image Pannign feature, and it works only when the picturebox.SizeToFit = false
I can not set it = false in the mouse click event, because I need set it = true, so the pic will change size.basically, what I need is: after mouse click event finished, change SizeToFit = false.One way to do it is in mouse click event, start a timer, after several seconds, set SizeToFit = false. Or, use a thread. It will work. But, is there a more elegant way to do this?
I have a Windows Form application in VB.net 2008 using a picture box to continuously render the video. I'm not able to get click events on top of the rendered video being displayed within the picture box. If I click to the side (still in the picture box, but where there is no video being rendered) then the click event comes through.
I have a menu strip in a form. What I want to do is when I hover my mouse over the menu it should drop down and show the menu without clicking. I am trying to call the click event of menustrip in mouse hover event of menu, but to no avail.
I'm attempting to convert VB 5.0 source code to VB 2008. The converted code will then be slightly altered to facilitate its incorporation into a larger project that I'm developing in VB 2008. After using the conversion wizard (which is actually written for VB 6.0), I have 49 unresolved issues -- less than I expected. Much has changed since the days of my prowess as a programmer (Fortran in the 70's), so working my way through even as few as 49 issues will be a challenge, and will (no doubt) take me a while.
The UI for the VB 5.0 code I'm converting is a "virtual remote," with control buttons that (when clicked) trigger communication to a USB-connected device. With assistance, I've been able to develop my own "virtual remote," contained within my VB 2008 project. Eventually, I will "substitute" mine for the original. For now, though, I'm wanting to use MY "virtual remote" to trigger the original.
I have the executable for the VB 5.0 program, and can run it simultaneously with my "under-development" VB 2008 code. Problem is: I don't know how to cause a "click" on MY virtual remote to trigger a click on the original virtual remote (which is being "monitored" by the other program).
I have 2 listboxes on a form. Each listbox has a few items. As you know, I am able to have 1 item selected from each listbox, therefore making it 2 selected items from different listboxes.
I want to create a keyboard + mouse shortcut so I can de-select or change the selection mode of the listbox when Alt is held down and Left button on the mouse is clicked on the selected item. Here is the code that I wrote, which does not work.
Private Sub Form1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Me.MouseDown If Control.ModifierKeys = Keys.Alt AndAlso e.Button =
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))
First, I launch a website in Internet Explorer from VB.net and automatically login the user with ther username and password. As soon as the username and password fields are automated, I send "enter" to the website so it goes to the next website. This part works perfectly. However, my problem is that i want to send a mouse click event, which i have already written, to click a hyperlink on the next website page. I tried a few different things, none of which worked. My program is automatically logging in the user and doing the mouse click event at the same time. I have tried to use the "sleep" command, but the mouse click event is still not executing after the second webpage loads. I have tried using nesting "If, then" statements and that has not worked either. Does anyone know how to make sure the webpage fully loads before executing a sendkeys routine or a mouse click event? This is my code thus far:
If (Search.ComboBox1.Text = "IWR") Then BlockInput(True)'this disables the mouse and keyboard Dim IE As New Object
[code].....
There are no errors, everything is just executing all at once instead of letting the second webpage load and then executing the mouse click event.
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'd like to start by saying that simply though searching, DreamInCode has taught me alot about VB.NET. In fact, I would imagine without DIC as a resource, I probably wouldn't have been able to move forward and learn most of what I know now, just because I got stuck on some things here and there.Anyway, I searched around for information regarding how to "capture" a minimize event in VB.NET. I am working on the GUI for an application that I would like to have minimize to the system tray. Currently, instead of accomplishing this with the minimize function, I do it on the FormClosing event like this:
Private Sub MainFrm_FormClosing(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles MyBase.FormClosing 'Cancel the attempt.
[code]....
That code works, and upon making the form visible again with Me.Visible = True the form is restored to its original position. However, prior to the form being hidden, the window manager draws a minimize and restore effect before eventually hiding it. Any change to the WindowState _after_ hiding the form does not appear to have any effect, so when the form is unhidden it is still minimized.is there a way to capture Minimize events, and when captured, is it possible to cancel them in a manner similar to what I did with the FormClosing event?
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.
Apologies as this has probably been answered a million different times a million different ways already. I'm trying to control the mouse. I wish to move the mouse to a given pixel position (x, y) and cause a click. I don't want this to be limited within a form, as I want to control another application. I'm using VB 2005.
Im using Visual Basic 2008 Express..Is there a way to disable mouse click for a while in Visual Basic 2008, I mean if mouse was clicked more than 1 time in very short time to click only once? -- I need it because my mouse became like crazy one.. when I click once it may clicks twice or more.so until I buy another one, I'd like to filter click, to allow only one click and to block another clicks that were made in last second.
I am trying to simulate a mouse click on a webBrowser at certain coords in the webBrowser WITHOUT using the persons mouse in any shape or form becuase I want to be able to run the program, minimize it and do other things whilst the program clicks in certain coords in a webBrowser.
I have set the controls mouse enter and mouse leave events. My problem is that the mouse leave event fires if I mouse over any of the child controls (like the name box for example).What I need is for the mouse leave event to fire when my mouse leaves the entire control, rather than firing when I mouse over any of the child controls. Here are the events as I have them so far:
Private Sub DeliveryControl_MouseEnter(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.MouseEnter Me.removeImage.Visible = True End Sub
