I am making a program (obviously), and when the user presses UP, DOWN, LEFT, or RIGHT I would like to move the label's location correspondingly. Here is my code so far, but it does not work:
I'm currently working on a project that has a simple game . I want to change the location of a label ( middle ) to another location when a key is pressed down. But there is something wrong with the first of the If statement .I've underlined "point " because it has the error.
Private Sub Space_Navigator_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyDown If e.KeyCode = Keys.Up Then If middle.Location = [u]Point[/u](156, 655) Then middle.Location = New Point(156, 547) End Sub
How do i set my label's text location? Can someone give me an example? I have a tiny form and I set the label text to vary depending upon certain things and I want the text to be centered in the form.
I am using the following code to change the direction of my snake in a game:
[Code]....
I have set it up so that if the direction is set as east and the left key is pressed not to change the direction to west so the snake doesn't eat itself. This works however if the direction is east and I quickly press down then left the snake doesn't have time to move down and just moves to the left causing the snake to eat itself.
basically i need to change the text of a label where the name of the label comes from the value of a variable.So, for example,
Dim x as String = "lblTarget" Dim y as String = "Target Text"
In this case the text of "lblTarget" would need to be come "Target Text". Basically, the label that is named the value of variable x would need to take on the text of variable y.
When i open the program i see the correct location but when i move the pictures the location into the label doesn't change... So i try Label2.refresh but he still doesn't change....
if the users clicks on a setting the text of a label will change, but its not aligned so I want to get it aligned? Label1.Location and then?Label1.Location (blabla ;blabla) won't work so..
How can I set a button, so that when it is pressed, it stays in the pressed down graphic state. Then when pressed again it returns to the normal not-pressed visual.Make a button stay like this until pressed again: url....
I have a TextBox and set the MiltiLine property to true and AcceptsTab property to false.When the TextBox has focus and i press Tab it works fine and the next control get the focus, but when i press Ctrl+Tab it works as if AcceptsTab property is set to true and makes a tab character into the TextBox.The reason i press Ctrl+Tab.. when switching between forms in my MDI application.Now how to make a Ctrl+Tab when pressed works like Tab when pressed in a MultiLine TextBox?
I have the Context Menu Options like ( Small Font , Large Font ) based on the selection I want to change the size of the Font in the Controls,Control's Size & location(x,y,height,width). The resize of the controls should not affect the look and feel of the forms.
I have created a program that uses a 3rd party dll, and has been added as a reference. Is there any easy way to change where vb.net, looks for this dll file? Currently it is dropped in the same location as my main exe, but would rather it looked in the system32 directory. I have googled and tried changing the app.config file, and dont really understand AppDomain.
I use VB2008 and database access and Crystal report.my problem : when ever I change location the database. I will always change location in my report from crystal report. It's very difficults and waste the time because I have many report. how to set up location only 1 place and impact to many report.
My VB Code :
Dim dbname1 As String = "D:AF_SoftwareDBDBAF1.mdb" Public Strcon As String = "Provider=microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0;data source=" & dbname1 & ";jet OLEDB:Database Password=999"
make code in crystal report , if i want change drive to drive Z / or somthing else.now, i am go to the report and click change location.
I wanted to know is it posible to change My.Settings location.. for example, not in user folder (dont remember in witch folder, but i know it was in some users folder..), but save in application folder?Cos i write programs portable, so they work if the folder with my program is moved even to different PC..It would be a great if i could use my.settings and store in the application path..Cos i have tried to save in registry, xml file, ini file, and they all are pain in the a*s..
I need to holds the common settings for all of the apps ona server (UNC path). Previously I used an ini file on the server and the application was told to look there via a command switch.
I understand that I'm trying to use .net in an old fashioned way by not packaging it for web update & delivery but that's a contraint of the architecture I need to work with.
Is there any way to force my application to use the application.exe.config file from a set location rather than the user data area that .net automatically writes it to? Even if not on a server path, then in the application directory where we can push update it?
The code works except for setting the location. The location is initially set to {X = -3 Y = -3} and it will not change. I have tried to set it to new Point(1440, 0) and that does not work. One interesting thing I found was if I declared the new instance of the form locally inside my main form rather than in the module, then the initial location is set to {X = -1 Y = -1} and I can change it no problem. However anytime the code leaves the main form, the instance disappears hence why I declare it as public in the module. I used the same code to create a new instance of the main form as well and there are no problems.
I'm developing a program at the moment and I'm trying to add the capability to add a texbox everytime you click a button. This is simple other than I'm trying to be efficiant as possible, so I made a sub that creates the textbox and the button calls the sub. Here is where it gets tricky I want the new textbox to move just below the previouse textbox, I'm not sure how to do this since Im only really createing one textbox over and over and having a variable name it by one. This souds confusing I know, but check out my code and it will make since. Really all I'm trying to do is change the location of a unknown textbox say since I create a textbox name textbox0 then when I hit the button again my varibale goes up by 1 which makes the new textbox, textbox1. how to I tell VB to change textbox1's location.[code]...
An update to my program has been downloaded to a particular folder. The code recognizes that the file is there (i.e. "If IO.File.Exists(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "UpdatesPQCM.exe) Then), Sets the update location to that file and initiates the click-once update subroutine. Problem, I don't know how this update feature can be modified this way in run-time. I would set the update location using the solution properties but this program may exist anywhere on the hard drive, or even on a thumb drive (as per its design).
