Controls On MDI Form Not Picking Up Backround Colour With Property Bindings From Application Settings?
Feb 3, 2011
I have an MDI form on which I have placed a ToolStripContainer. I have set the BackColor of the toolstripcontainer.contentpanel to an ApplicationsSettings property binding for BackColor. At design time the background colour of the contentpanel reflects the colour in the saved Applications Settings. However at run-time the background colour of the content panel is not the colour that has been saved in the applications settings (in this case DarkSeaGreen). It continues to display the colour from the current

I have a custom class and my dependency properties won't work with bindings unless I declare the class as a static resource.
My xaml:
<sdk:Frame prism:RegionManager.RegionName="MainContentRegion">
<sdk:Frame.ContentLoader>
<myLibrary:RegionNavigationContentLoader
RegionManager="{Binding RegionManager}"
RegionName="MainContentRegion" />

I am having difficulty getting some form control property bindings to work correctly. Below is the code I am using-
[Code]...
The ZedGraphControl is just a GraphPane, and the TolSelectBtn is just a button. Problem is, the ZedGraph control binding works properly, but the binding to the button does not (both controls' Visible properties are set to False in the design window). Can a ToolStripMenuItem only handle one data binding? Or is there something else I should be looking for?

When working with the code within a control's subprocedure if you type it brings up intellisense as you would expect: Code: sender. Within the intellisense there is no text property listed to select from however if you just type "text" after the "sender." it allows it. It also doesn't capatilize the T in text after you leave the line as you would expect to see when working with other properties. This is the first occurence that I've seen where an item was not included in intellisense but allowed it without errors. This is a big code saver and discovery for me as it cuts my other previous methods of extracting the control's text down to a single simple line.

I'm trying to populate the list of a combobox by binding it to a datatable. Also, I want the selected value of the combobox to be bound to an object property so that when the selected value changes, it's automatically updating the object. However it's causing an error at runtime: "This causes two bindings in the collection to bind to the same property.
Parameter name: binding" I thought binding the dropdown list to a datatable and the selected value to an object were different properties but obviously I'm not getting it right.
Code:
Private Sub PopulateSiteSelect()
With Me.PlanSiteSelect
If _Plan.PlanID <> Nothing And _User.UserID <> Nothing And _Plan.Category <> Nothing Then

I have a program that uses Excel files as a datasource. When I import data I start the Excel interfaces and after the whole thing is complete I close and empty the Excel references...But, the Excel program will still be running in the backround.(When I check the Task Manager it shows at least one EXCEL running...)Also, one of my excel-files always prompts for "Do you want to save the changes" option when I import the file into my program. Even though it has not been running at all... ?

I am creating an application for a company and this CD will be distributed to hundreds of people. Many users will have different computer screen size and different screen settings such as their resolution set to 1024 x 728 and their monitor size 17" inches.
I noticed when I loaded the application on a different computer with different settings the application was to big for the screen and did not work. I notice that lot of other programs from microsoft resize their controls and text but never knew how they did it. How can I resize the form and control according to the user's setting.

Any hunk of code that loops trough the windows form controls array, and based on top/left to bottom/right, resets the TabIndex property? I've mashed a huge form together and expect my user community to want to move things around, and I don't want to have to fool around with this over and over again.

I am working on a .NET Windows Service where I am trying to store settings that will be used when the service is started and while it is running. I have searched through posts on SO and found that using the Settings in the properties of the project is great for use with console and winforms applications. However, Google and SO are silent when it pertains to storing these settings with a windows service.

I just wondered if you can or can't save arrays using the settings system object. There seems to be no way of entering it at designtime. It seems implied you cannot create new user settings.subobjects at runtime. I'm looking to find the easiest way to save a populated array of PictureBox's. If the only way is a self/custom made/managed .ini file then I need to know so i can start on that but I was hoping to use some of all this phaff in the new frameworks usefully.

To .NET after getting tired of using VB6 due to the lack of functionality. I'm trying to create a log on method for a system which will involve users selecting a colour from a paint panel and then placing/drawing the colour in 1 or more tiles of a grid, basically a 3x3 grid in which for example they selected the blue colour and drew in the top left tile and the bottom left tile. The logon is selecting the correct colour and placing the colour in the appropriate tile. What i want them to be able to do is place even a single pixel of colour so it has a high accuracy. So far i have a timer which loops from the width of the grid to the height of the grid.
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
Dim BMP As New Drawing.Bitmap(1, 1)
Dim GFX As System.Drawing.Graphics = System.Drawing.Graphics.FromImage(BMP)
GFX.CopyFromScreen(New Drawing.Point(MousePosition.X, MousePosition.Y), _
[CODE]...
To start with i have just hard coded the colour i want it to detect. At present it produces an error. Parameter must be positive and < Width the error is on System.Drawing.Point(i,j). If i place the mouse over the colour then run the program it will say it has been found, but otherwise it wont find the colour. I believe i am not updating the location of the pixel or something to that effect.

I'd like to replace all the white pixels in a bitmap image with pixels of the colour "Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.MenuHighlight)". Is there some method in the Image, Bitmap or Graphics classes I can use, or will I simply have to inspect each pixel in the image with GetPixel, check whether it is a white pixel, and then set it with SetPixel?Here is the code I am using now:
Private Shared Sub highlight(ByVal b As Bitmap)
Dim highlightColour As Color = Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.MenuHighlight)
Dim whiteARGB As Long = Color.White.ToArgb

I have some related Properties in a class. Namely, One is a collection of objects and the other is an index to the one that the class instance is looking at. In the designer, I need for the collection to be set prior to the index. I tried to do this manually, but when the file is saved, the Designer goes back and writes over my change. So I need to know how to tell the designer in which order to set the properties.
