I'm creating a game similar to the tradtional space invaders in VB '08. My problem is twofold. One, when I dim a new picture box (picPrimaryLaser) it won't move. Two, I can't do anything while it's moving. The screen just turns white and flashy around that area.Here's the code.
Public Class frmMainInvasion
Dim activationCheck As Boolean = False

Say we have a DataGridView on the main form. I can chose to establish its properties by code or by selecting them in the Properties panel. Is there a difference between these two techniques, a loading time penalty in any of the cases especially?
View 5 RepliesI am somewhat new to object oriented programming and am attempting to flatten a Linq object hierarchy by using a shim class.how to initalize a derived class with property values from a base class?I have two objects, a base object with about 100 properties, and a derived object which inherits from the base object and adds a few additional properties beyond those of the base object. My simple constructor creates the derived object, but I am looking for a way to initialize the derived object properties with values from the base object.Right now I am using reflection to iterate over the properties individually and I suspect there may be a better way. The following example shows my shim class constructor for the derived class, and two properties:
newProperty1 - a new string property of the derived class
flattenedProperty2 - a new string property of the derived class, copied from a 2nd-level object of the base class
Code example:
Public Class derivedObj
Inherits baseObj
Private _newProperty1 As String[code].......
Is this the correct constructor approach to flatten the object hierarchy using a shim class? My second question relates to initialization of properties in the derived class. The constructor above creates the derived object, but what is the best way to initialize the derived object properties with values from the base object? The following code uses reflection to iterate over the properties individually, but I suspect there may be a better way.
Code example:
' property names are in the string array fieldNames
'baseObjQuery is an ienumerable of baseObj
'derivedObjList is a list of derivedObj[code].....
Is there a simple way to initialize values for the properties in the derived object based upon the values of the common properties in the base object?
Ok, I don't even know if the is possible, but what I want to do is have a button that when pressed will add a new text box below each other each time it is pressed. So meaning, ther4e is text in one text box, then a button is pressed, a new textbox will appear below it and you can add text to that, and so on.
View 1 RepliesI was wondering if you can programme in a code to add buttons to a page, without physically putting them in.Ive got a customisable set of options, currently in a txt file 1 item per line maybe thinking of putting into a listbox, if a user adds an item i need it to add a button with that text on.
say i had a drink list, with my first 3 items of beer, cocktail, food, and theres a button prest for each one and i decided to sell wine, shandy, rout beer and so an so on, or how ever many items there are, could be 50 items or 100 items don't really fancy?

I want to search down the column and find where there are two or more cells that that have numbers, one after another. I want to add a row beneith the last number and then add up the total of that batch of numbers in that column were searching down. I know that I'll be using a loop to step down each cell in the column to check on the contents of the cell. Also I want the loop to go from the top of the colum to the last record since the list length will frequently change.

I'm trying to set the size of a box without setting it in the properties dialogue box. My reason for doing so: I have text boxes stacked on top of each other. I need to alter properties of them after I place them and don't want to scroll through the list of objects (there are a lot) in order to find that specific item. Instead, I want to place them at different places in the form and then tell them where to be located, and what size they should be UPON FORM LOAD. I can't seem to locate the proper syntax in the book I am using, but from logic I have reached the following beginning of the line of code:
Me.txtVidPro.Size = 561, 130
Me.txtVidPro.Location = 63, 258
the only part I'm getting an error on is the x and y coordinates. please help me by pointing me in the right direction.

View 2 RepliesI'm down to the final coding on one of my projects, when i notice that the backgroundworker behaved strange. For each time i run the backgroundworker, it repeated it self one more time, and the new time, it repeated one more time.
So, if i run the worker a third time, it would repeat it self 3 times.
First run: Runs one time
Second run: runs twice
Third run: run 3 times
And so on.
So, i'll post all the code from that form.

CODE:
What i have heard is, that a program dont get much faster on a dual core (or quad core) than on a single core processor, because windows assigns the program to just one core. (but still a little faster because other programs run on the other cores instead or something like that).And if you want to exploit the power of multicores, you have to code in a way so that different calculations get sent to different cores simultanuasly and then gather the result afterward.First of, is this correct? And if so (or if not so) is it possible to program in vb to exploit multicores. I mean can you create 4 threads and assign them to each core, or does this require some heavy C++ coding?The reason im asking is because and application i have created uses biometric identification (fingerprints) and this requires somcalculations, the more fingerprints that gets stored. Then if i somehow could make it use more codes, maybe this will be a little faster?Is this possible in vb, or would i get way in over my head for trying to work with th
