Custom Title Bar Buttons?
Feb 21, 2009
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.

This is a follow-up to my earlier question Draw Custom Buttons on Windows Vista/7 Aero Titlebar.I revisited the topic quite recently and found this article which is essentially a hack to 'drawing' buttons on Aero-enabled title bar (Windows Vista & 7). What the code does is to create a transparent window over the current one and places the buttons on it, giving the impression of additional buttons on the title bar. The only problem is the buttons look like regular WinForms buttons!how do I read the windows shell style (aka theme) in order to create buttons styled just like those in the Control Box (see image)?

I was just wondering if there was a possible way to add a custom button into the title bar using VB.NET. I've seen many such questions on Stack Overflow but failed to get a sure-shot and a working answer.

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...

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.

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.

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
Dose anybody know how to achive this?

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?
