Visual Basic (Coding) - Child Form To Open Within A Panel On Its Parent?

Mar 2, 2012

I have created a (kind of) 'Desktop' Form for the main basis of my program. Basically it is made up of 3 panel controls.

1. Holds all buttons which load the different forms (Like the windows start menu when expanded). name: StartMenuPanel

2. Holds Information on log in deatails. name: LogCheckPanel (very thin panel at top of screen)

3. Main panel which takes up the majority of the screen (where I want the forms to load). name: MainPanel

My aim is: When a button is clicked from the 'StartMenuPanel' the form will load with-in the 'MainPanel'.

I tried changing the start position to 'centre parent', but the panels are in the way so some of the childform is overlayed by the panels.

[Code]...

When I run this I get the following error: 'Top-level control cannot be added to a control'.

I hope I've explained this well enough.

Interface And Graphics :: Adding A A Form As A Child Form To A Third Part Window

Mar 24, 2011

As Autodesk is going to discontinue VBA for their Inventor product in the near future I have been looking at other ways to run VB.NET in Inventor. To date it doesn't look like VSTA will be the replacement. Automation from an External VB.NET app is certainly possible, but leaves something to be desired for speed and integration. Compiled Add Ins are the Cadillac of choice but can be a royal pain to debug and develop. Autodesk now provides a lightweight VB.NET script interface called iLogic. It's main purpose is to allow extreme customization of Solid Modeling parts. The code actually resides inside the Part Model file.

ClipCursor To Lock A Mouse In A Window / How To Detect Height Of Window's Title Bar

Nov 24, 2010

border of that said window so the only place the mouse can't click the titlebar and the minimize,restore, and maximize button. The height of the titlebar depends on what OS the user is using so I'm having trouble because I can't give a definite value for this. How do I detect the height. and also for border i'm not sure if the borders have different widths with different operating systems. I'm using windows XP on classic mode, when I change to the themed mode, the height of the title bar changes so it won't work.
