i know that you can use yes and no and retry and ok ect..buttons in a message box but what i want to know is that can you make the buttons custom. say insteed of yes it say "SURE WHY NOT." or insteed of no it says "WHAT ARE YOU INSAIN OF COURSE NOT."just wondering how ,if at all possable, how that would work and how i would use those custom buttons in a select case thingy.because i dont know if i change the YES button to say "SURE" and NO to say "R U CRAZY?"[code]
This is what I would like to achieve:To create a custom messagebox, with varying number of buttons with custom .Text descriptions, and other features. I intended to have a property array that would be redim-ed and have values (.Text values) set by the calling class:
I found an excellent example of how to add your own buttons to the title bar of a program url...but the problem it that it seems a bit buggy and I was hoping someone else can verify this. The program was written in VS2003 (I'm pretty sure) and I am running VS2008. Can anyone test for the problem in the program in VS2003 and tell me if it's a problem with visual studio trying to convert the code to 2008 (and I think a newer .NET version) or just some shortcomings of the program? The problem I have is that the whole thing runs very laggy and moving the window around seemed to cause tearing and other re-drawing related issues.
Do you know of any tutorial that could help me make a custom button in vb.net. Because visual studio 2008 doesn't allow you to create buttons in circle or triangular shapes. I've tried searching and found this one but, I cannot make use of it because there are lots of errors.url...
MessageBoxes are often used to display error messages and other information, and I thought that I'd create something to make it easier to see the format of the MessageBox rather than having to test it or temporarily set a condition in order that you ca see how it looks and then modify the code. This is hardly perfect, but I don't think it's a bad start.[code]....
I extended treeview, treenode, and nodetype so I could have custom nodes. Certain nodes have image buttons on them allowing them to add a child node or delete the node. I can't handle any of the events from my buttons.Public Class ContentTreeView Inherits TreeView Public Event OnAddChild(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Public Event OnDelete(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Is it possible to create a custom listview with radio buttons in it? I will only ever have two items in the list view at one time. I would like the radio buttons to be a property that is set to True/False so that I can include them when I want to and exclude if I need to. The alternative is to use the checkboxes and control them so that only one can be checked at a time. However I do not know know how to set the enabled properties of the individual checked items (i.e. If Item1.checkbox = True, Then Item2.Checkbox.Enabled = False). The key point here is that the user needs to clarify which item ranks in priority and will set this using the radio button/checkbox.
Is it possible to make custom buttons for the forms? I know i can add imaging to the button controls, but if is it possible to really customize the buttons so they look different, like designs instead of blocks?
I am fairly new to programming and vb.net and I am working on a small project but in the project i need a message box (2 different occasions) where the buttons, instead of Yes No say Pause and GO. The video [URL] told me to make a new form (dialogue) and then in my main form add a public sub.
Here is the sub I have: Public Sub injectmessage(ByVal ingmessage As String) Dim topmessage As New Message Dialog1.Label1.Text = ingmessage Dialog1.ShowDialog() End Sub All that does is puts the message on the messagebox.
if there is a way to customize my media player, like custom buttons, etc, I would like to make a box displaying the visualizations and a custom library control...
I have a windows application that displays a multi-line message box to the user during the course of the program.This particular application is run on various machines running either XP, Vista, or Windows 7.When the application is run on an XP box, the formatting of the Messagebox looks great. When the program is run on a Vista or Windows 7 machine, the text in the messagebox is eschew and the formatting looks sloppy.Is there a way in Visual Studio to ensure the formatting of text in Messageboxes is consistant between XP and Vista/Win 7?
I have a login form. all my code is valid with the database and all that.i use an if statement, like if passoword and username match database password and user name then it allows them in then opens my main form. code for that is as follows
[code]...
for some reason, it shows the correct messageboxes and correctly validates all through database, but it closes the Login form correctly, but then shows the main form only for a second, then closes program. I am having issues with similar form opening and closing in other parts of the project as well.
There is a response to this question using C# - I am looking for a VB answer and the C# code is too deep for me. I have a custom user control and I have a toolstrip on it. I have certain default buttons on the toolstrip, but I want the user to be able to add additional buttons at design time. I exposed the Toolstrip.Items collection in a public property. I can open the collections editor in design time, but I cannot edit the collection.
I found this question on StackOverflow. Basically, the user wanted to draw custom buttons on the titlebar. I tried the code and realised it works in vista/7 only when Aero is disabled. My question is, is there any way to draw custom buttons on the titlebar while aero is enabled? Any way of reading information from the current theme so I can style my buttons to match the already existing ones.
Here is a screenshot from my computer demonstrating the above concept. I got the additional titlebar buttons after installing DisplayFusion. And I know DisplayFusion is a .NET program because it opens in .NET Reflector. The down side is that the program is obfuscated. Not like I wanted to decompile the program or anything; I just want to add a button to my titlebar to do something else (like minimise to the system tray for instance). Below is the screenshot, proving the program is a .NET app.
I have 26 buttons on my form (each a letter of the alphabet) i want to press a button lets say Z and that it then changes the relevant registry key value of 0 to 1 representing the button has already been clicked (these a-z buttons are to be compared with on/ off switches). This way if I start my program up again the values in the regedit will "memorise" wich buttons were turned on and wich were turned off in our previous program session.
Ultimately the buttons turned off should always appear as red until switched onagain
I have a piece of software with two tabs, inside each tab there are buttons (the user can add the buttons when they want). when tab1 is full tab2 should start to fill. I currently know how many buttons fit on the screen so I just say something like if buttons > 150 then start to populate tab 2 The problem i have now though is if the resolution is changed then a different amount of buttons can be displayed. so if I put my screen to 1280x720 some buttons are left of. I was thinking of detecting the resolution and then using different cases for different resolutions but this seems very inefficient im wondering if there is a different way?
What I would like to do is to have four different buttons (e.g., buttonA, buttonB, buttonC and button D). I wanna give the following instruction to the people: press these buttons in the following order: first buttonA, then buttonB, then buttonC and last buttonD. If they obey this instruction then a picture will be displayed, for instance a happy face. All the other combinations will not activate this picture to be displayed, or in other words, there won't be any consequence. I would also like to save this data using windows note pad e.g., writeline (1, xxxxxx). Is there any chance I will make it?
I'm using a dialog form with two buttons and two Radio buttons.I'm oppening this Dialog when a button is clicked on the parent form.My situattion is when the Dialog opens the code in the button event continues to execute, but I only want it to continue to execute only after a button from the dialog form have been clicked
Private Sub btnSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSave.Click If multipleEXT = 2 Then Extension.Show()
i need to get some buttons to interact with other buttons on screen when i click then, as each indivual button gives a slightly different result.imagine this:[code]....
then i need then to hide different buttons depending on which button was pressed. so say i pressed button 1 then all the buttons showed but alternativly if i had of pressed 2 then say button 5 and 6 disapear.managed to get one way to work but then i would only ever end up with the first results every time.
My VB application is behaving strangley. I have form with fairly large number of controls. I am using case against radio buttons. after curtain number of buttons, it stops responding to more radio buttons.
Then I tried to split controls in to 2 form but now my form.showdialog() too now working properly. It takes new from names but show the old form when running.
I have 7 Windows forms.The order of the forms is defined within a configuration file.I want to place buttons on each form that will show the next available options.The Next button will move the next form in the list.The Back button will move to the previous form in the list. The Finish button will execute the final piece of code.The Cancel button will exit the application.If the user is on the first form, then there is no Back button.If the user is on the last form, then there is no Next button, but there is a Finish button.
I came across this great article on creating a custom datagridview column which creates a graph-like effect in the cells of a custom datagridview column:[URL]..Does anyone know how you would edit this to format the number in the cell as a percentage? And does anyone know how you would set this up to take 0 values which do not create any graph effects at all.I have been trying to do this but keep getting errors.
I was trying to block the closing of a custom combo box popup window in my custom DataGrid. The popup window comes by pressing F4 or ALT+DOWN keys in my datagrid which is getting closed if I press the down arrow for the first time, after showing the first value in the combo box as selected. Next time onwards, if I press the F4 key and down arrow, I can move to any item in the popup window and select the item using keyboard and in that case, the popup window is not getting closed till I press the ENTER key or selection using the Mouse. Is there any specific reason for this behaviour or something is missing in my code part? [code]...

how to specify a custom icon for display in the toolbox window when you create your own custom control? Something other than the dreaded "gearbox" icon.
