View 1 RepliesWhen I set the opacity of a form to 50%, the opacity of a label on that form is also set to 50%, but I do not want so, is there anyway to make a 100%-opacity-label with 50%-opacity-LabelBackground on a 50%-opacity-form?

View 3 RepliesI want to create forms with panel opacity, but this is not possible. Panel's don't have an opacity option and making the entire form transparent, makes everything you put into it just as transparent.

When I click the button nothing happens. What am I doing wrong here ?
I want to make it so when someone places the mouse cursor inside the form the opacity is 100% but when it leaves then it drops to 75%. This is my code:
Private Sub Form1_MouseEnter(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.MouseEnter
Me.Opacity = 100%
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_MouseLeave(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.MouseLeave
Me.Opacity = 75%
End Sub
The forms default value is 75% and it works fine when I mouse over. However when the mouse leaves the opacity doesn't drop. What am I doing wrong?
Is it possible to set the opacity of controls separate from the opacity of the main form window? What I want is to be able to set the form window and labels as "see through" (but not invisible) while keeping the data fields fully visible or mostly visible.
For example, form background and labels at 50% opacity and comboboxes and listboxes at 90% opacity.
I need to be able to change my form's opacity without changing the opacity of the components.
I really only need to do this on one form in my entire app, so this is getting a little frustrating
I've been researching for about half an hour now, trying to figure out if it's possible, but I'm coming up short.
I've seen some WPF examples and if it really comes to that, I'm more than willing to change the app from a WinForms app to a WPF app. I've made a WPF app before, so I'm familiar with it. But, I don't want to have to remake my entire project for this one form.
On that note, does anyone know if I can make a WPF form how I need it and just import it into a WinForm app? It doesn't seem possible, but it's better to ask than not. I'll look into this more.
I am new at asking questions on this fourm (and at programing V.B.) so if I make any mistakesMy question is when displying images on a form is it possible to make them so they start off with 10% opacity and gradualy become solid using a timer?
View 5 RepliesWhen a user is editing a given piece of data, they're allowed to add messages/comments. These are stored as child records in a SQL database. Clicking on the Add Message button brings up a panel (pnlMessage) courtesy of the AJAX ModalPopup Extender. This takes some input and, when the "Send Message" button in the panel is clicked (I learned the hard way to NOT make that the 'OkButton' property), the message is stored in the database and an email is sent to the intended recipients. No problem there.
However, I need to be able to allow the user to add new email addresses (so long as they are registered in our database). I have another ModalPopup / panel combo (pnlSearch) that's tied to a button on the previous panel (pnlMessage).
The user is supposed to be able to add an email or click on a search button to populate a list to choose from.
The pop-up panel (pnlSearch) comes up just fine, but clicking the "Lookup" button (which instigates the search and returns a collection of records that the user is supposed to pick from) closes the panel.
Previously, I ran into the problem of having the Button.Click event never firing when I put the Button into the "OkControlID" property (the CancelControlID works fine since I don't want to do anything). Removing the "OkControlID=Button" line allowed it to work perfectly with the Button.Click event firing as expected.
So now I have the Search panel with a button for "OK" and a button for "Search" - but the panel should stay up and visible after the Search.Click does it's thing. Am I missing some property that basically says "don't close the panel when this button is clicked"? Of course, if I bring up the panel again in the same session, the results from the previous effort are there (the search results).
I have a form with a PNG image as its background image. How can I make the form's opacity match the opacity at different parts of the image? (for example, I have a drop shadow that fades from black to transparent. How do I acheive this effect on a form?)

View 3 RepliesIn VB6 I could embed a panel or picturebox containing controls or images within an outer panel or picturebox. If I moved the outer control then the embedded panel would move with the outer panel and stay in the same relative position, which is what I require. This doesn't seem to happen in VB.NET, the internal panel stays fixed in its location, even if I have pasted this panel within the outer container. Is there are trick to this or do I have to code to get the internal panel to move with the outer one? How does an internal container remain embedded within an outer one?

I have a panel inside a formview that is supposed to become visible when a checkbox (also inside the formview) is checked. I am able to access the controls, but I'm not sure how to actually make it work. This is my codebehind so far, I know it's not right, but it gives a basic idea of what I'm trying to do.[code]

I have a few panels that contain the controls, how can I check them all at once rather than use that code above and just change the panel number each time? It'll get pretty messy if I have to keep pasting all that code and just changing one number.
On my .aspx page i want to be able to show and hide certain panels depending on user selections (radiobuttonlists).
For example in my aspx page i have;

<asp:ListItem>1</asp:ListItem>

I use panel.controls.add to add controls to the panel. But... they insert at the very top of it.
I tried the BringToFront and SendToBack methods, but does'nt seem to be working.
what i want, is that they dock at the top of the container, but if there is another docked control there, the new one is displayed below that one...
I am trying to add controls to a Panel in a loop, but for some reason they are being added from the bottom up instead of top down.In a little test program I am running this
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
For i As Integer = 1 To 10[code]....
And this is the result I get ... the controls are added starting at the bottom. I need them to start at the top of the panel, with each new control being added under the previous one. If I remove the Dock statement, then the controls just get added on top of each other.
I've successfully been able to add controls (labels, images, buttons, etc) to a panel control (using VB/ASP). This panel control, I refer to it as "insertpanel". Then I add this panel to the main panel on my webpage which I made during design time. The problem I run into is that when I add multiple controls of any type to the panel, they are all added in line with each other. I tried giving my image some css-styling of[code]....
View 1 RepliesWant to use several panels on a single form and have them turned on based on what button you click. Think I can figure out how to turn panels on and off but I find it difficult to manage multible panels within a single form in Visual Studio.When I create multible panels they end of connect to eachother instead of connecting back to the main form and when you add child controls it is difficult to know what pannel they got connected to.
