Is it possible to create a menu when wmp comp is in fullscreen mode. I mean when wmp goes fullscreen a toolbar or something appear, showing play pause etc! Generally all the controls of a player...
View 3 RepliesI need to create a vb-application which plays video-files as a fullscreen mode on computer's external screen. At the sametime user must have control to these files on another screen shown on the computer's (laptop) own screen.
So far I have managed to open the videofile as a fullscreen mode so that user has to first drag the videopanel (not a problem in this case) to the another screen and then click the "Fullscreen"- button on the control-form. Now the problem is that when another screen is playing on a fullscreen-mode and user clicks the control-form on the main screen: the fullscreen-mode ends and the videopanel results to the video's actual size.
Is there any solutions to this? So I'd need to continue the fullscreenmode on the other screen while there are user actions on the main screen. I am using DirectX / AudioVideoPlayback by Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition. And yes, I am quite a newbie with VB-related things :)
I'd need to show an image in fullscreen mode on my application when a music-file is being played. Is it possible to define a form and an image (picturebox) to be shown as a maximum size on the screen?One thing that makes it even more interesting is that I'd need to show it as a fullscreen mode on a external screen.
I can move the form to external screen like this:
Form3.SetBounds(2000, 112, Form3.Bounds.Width, Form3.Bounds.Height)

I want to include two modes in my application. The user should be able to select one of the modes from the MenuStrip. When any of the modes is selected, a check sign should appear next to it as is seen in many application. Both the modes cannot be selected together and there is default mode when the applicaition is started.

How to add a custom component to my toolbox.I have a class that inherits Panel. I want to add this to my toolbox.I followed these steps:

I have made a custom component (button based) and was wondering how to add a custom icon to it as well as a custom description I've seen 3rd party components that got special icons as well as a custom description
And actually got a second question How to add description to functions I create myself? You know... in code when you start typing and a function shows up, if you let the mouse over it,
I am wondering if I can extend a component (e.g a button ) in vb the same way I can in java which enables you to modify the component for your specific requirement or create a new one from scratch.

I have created a custom Combobox and added it to my toolbox, and it works well. Now I have added a custom ListBox to the same file as the combo box, but it does not show on my designer when I place it. I can however add it at runtime.

I have a custom control that as a custom property. The property has several preset values to chose from a drop down. The control can be added to a form. The property can be viewed and set in the properties box in the IDE. It all works fine.
Here's the problem: I can create new versions and recompile the control and/or the application without the properties preset value being lost as long as I do it in Debug mode. However, once I try to recompile in Release mode the custom property values predefined setting is lost. I first thought it was something with going from debug mode to release mode. But it seems to be ANY time I recompile in Release mode the custom property values are lost. Is this a quirk in VS that needs a configuration setting, etc. to get around it?
Im currently developing a custom logging component, that we will deploy with all our applications, windows services, webapps, windows apps etc. I have a few questions of various nature. The component is a single signed dll file:
1) Which is the "safest" way to get the current directory? For example, in the config file, in the config section I have a property "logpath". The application will read this and write a log file depending in what they write:
c:myapplog (it will write a log here, create whatever folders it need) /Log (directly under the installed app directory, like c:program filesmyappLog) Log (same as above) I need something that work with both windows and web apps, for webapps it will log under the virtual directory of the aspnet app.
2) For exception handling, if nothing special is happening, like in the DAL, I get a sql server exception, is there any point in using

View 6 RepliesI have thought that it would be pretty cool to make Boot Snooze, iReboot and similar programs accessible from the Windows Shutdown menu. It would be a pretty neat way to interface with such programs. I realize that this may be extremely advanced stuff here, but I was wondering if anyone knows how to do this. I would prefer to be able to do this in VB.Net, but I realize it may only be possible in C++, if it is at all. I have tried Googling it, but, most likely due to the advanced nature, I have not found any good results (only "Add Hibernate", "Change default action to Hibernate", etc.).

I've got a dynamically filled datagrid view. When a user right clicks a cell in the datagridview, it opens a context menu, located by that cell. The context menu has two choices: A and B. I want to set the value of the cell to A if they pick A, and B if they pick B.I would like to pass the relevant cell as a field in the event args passed to ContextMenu's ToolStripItem.click. So the handler for ToolStripItem A's click event would read the relevant cell from the event args and set it to A , like this...
Private Sub A_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As Customized System.EventArgs) Handles A.Click
e.relevantCell.Value=A
End Sub
how to pass a custom event arg. Or if there is some easier way to do this? I can't just use the X and Y coordinates, because the context menu/mouse won't necessary by over the relevant cell.
I'm wondering if there is any code that I could use in VB.net so it can determine the computer's startup mode (such as safe mode or safe mode with networking).
