Custom Button With Shape Graphic?

Sep 3, 2009

I am looking to build some small custom buttons. I want to keep it simple and give them a gradient backgroud and use grey colours to illustrate shapes on them. Very similar to the buttons you see in Excel/Power Point/Word 2007 at the bottom right of the screen. The buttons are next to the slider bar which increaes the view % of the screen. These buttons are grouped together and have different combinations of squares/rectangles on them for viewing options Any idea where to start with the shapes?

Forms :: Control Shape Graphic Properties From Background Process?

Mar 25, 2010

I have got a couple of VB Powerpack Ovalshapes on my Form.I use these for a quick indication if the networked device is online or offline.I can't seem to control the Visible function (or any other function for that matter) one my Background Worker is running.For my Textboxes I used a guide by jmcilhinney which worked great for them but there is no 'Invoke' property for graphics controls.

Custom Graphic Control Enum Property

Aug 28, 2008

I am creating a custom graphic control and I'm stuck. I have three classes -
Protected Class ControlBase' Handles common properties and onpaintPublic Class ImageControl Inherits ControlBase' handles Image propertiesPublic Class TextControl Inherits ControlBase' handles Graphic Text properties
I also have a private enum ControlType and Public property for that enum. My goal is to have either a TextControl or a ImageControl created based on the ControlType. Since this property is outside of those two classes and the base - where do I put this property and how do I call up the correct class?

C# - Custom Shape Object In MS Office

Jun 27, 2012

I want to create some custom shapes for MS Office which we can use in house.
For example I want to create a shape named "carton box" which have three - four default places where user can add some text. It is same as other shapes or I would say just like shapes (line, flowchart, arrow etc) in MS office 2007.

Is there any way to create and reuse such a new objects, also if user don't have these shape in their toolbox and get a document which includes these shapes; he should be able to see it (defiantly in read only).

Background - I am a .NET developer and also having small knowedge of MS office development in .NET.

Create Custom Shape That Holds Icons?

Oct 14, 2009

I want to be able to create a custom shape that holds icons. Lets say for simplicity that it is a sqaure. I need the ability to load up to X amount of icons in the square. Lets say I need up to 6 icons. These icons will always be the same. However not all custom shapes will need them. I am assuming that I have to create a custom shape object class. I also want the icons to automatically adjust in size when I change the size of the shape. I am guessing that one way to do this would be to drop a TableLayoutPanel into the shape and then dock it to the shape. Then set the dock property of the icon to the cell that it resides into within the TableLayoutPanel in the shape. The number of rows/columns of the TableLayoutPanel would be predicated on the number of icons needed.

Custom Cursor Changing Shape At Runtime?

May 16, 2011

I am working on a contract to repair problems in a application that interfaces with a custom built digitizer tablet.The application recognizes the tablet at startup, initiates calibration to locate the pad limits and then saves those limits to file.During the run of the application the user has a cursor that is changed to a line with a X on the left hand side of it. The user then uses this custom cursor to click in a PDF document where they would like the contents of the Digitizer pad to be placed. When they click a box signifying the size of the digitizer pad along with the same blank and X appears. What I have been having issue with is that the box and the line with the X appear most of the time but on occasion the line and X appears at either the top or bottom of the box and the click is no longer at the line with the X but somewhere in the middle of the box. This really screws up things and often the user has to uninstall and re-install the application to get it righted.

The values that save the calibration points are bound to variables during the build process, there is a separate routine to calibrate the digitizer pad if the user desires to do it again.

Custom Shape - Setting Transparent Color

Jun 28, 2010

I have been using custom shapes for some time now but the pixels always have to be 100% solid or it mixes with the color I have set as transparent and its starting to get a bit annoying. Is there any way possible that I could take a png image with transparent pixels and use that as my custom shape without the transparent pixels becoming that color I chose? This is what I have: I want to put my image as the background without the purple being where the transparent pixels are.
Me.Backcolor = Color.Purple
Me.Transparencykey = Color.Purple

Custom User Cursor Not Keeping Shape?

Jun 16, 2011

I have a custom cursor for the user to allow them to position text in PDF files. For the most part there never seems to be a problem, but a choice few people are seeing massive problems with this.

One particular client loads the program, and then loads a PDF document into it. Once the program has loaded when the user clicks he either doesn't get a custom cursor or the signiture blank that is to show up is above the frame that is to surround the blank.

The user is using Windows XP on a laptop and the software re-renders the cursor and box every time. There is a signiture tablet that the user buys to connect to this software, and the user also has expressed problems with the Tablet not staying connected.

I can provide pictures of the changes and code if anyone would like to tackle this?

Interface And Graphics :: XNA Graphic With A Graphic?

Jan 14, 2010

I'm trying to make a mini map for a 2d space shooter of mine; I've for the math down (I think) for when an item should appear on the mini map, but the problem is the graphic. As it stands, the graphic spills over the edge of the mini map graphic and disappears only when it's fully outside. I need it to crop the image, or at least not show it off the mini map graphic.I thought of using the sourcerect rectangle of the spritebatch.draw, but it seems to me that would only work for the right and bottom section, as I can adjust the size of the rectangle. I haven't tried this yet, but I will soon. Can the location of the source rectangle be changed in relation to the graphic that it is a part of being drawn so that I can use that to crop the left and top sides?

Making Own Simple Custom Button?

Jun 9, 2011

Introduction[INDENT]Since this is my first thread in VB.NET forum(most of the time, I was in C/C++ forum), I want to share something that you might find it useful with your school project or with your works.Button is already a MUST-HAVE element in every program (I couldn't imagine program without a single button would function). Because it is everywhere, its appearance affects your form's appearance greatly. Some people might not care about how their software looks, but to me, it is a very important aspect for my software.

NOTE: I am pretty new to VB.NET myself. If there is any mistake, please correct me.

Step 1: Creating UserControl and Essential Properties[INDENT]Creating UserControl into your project. Then imports the following:

Because UserControl already has BackColor and ForeColor properties, you only need to construct Text and BorderColor properties
