View 3 RepliesInterface And Graphics :: Use A Graphical User Interface That Contains A Drag And Drop Form?
Oct 19, 2008I'm working on a design project where I have to use a Graphical User Interface that contains a drag and drop form. It consists of having a window dropped on a wall. Both of them are images to scale. I would like to know what kind of code I would have to use to show the x and y coordinates of one of the points of my window when dragged so when I drop it, I'm dropping in it on the desired coordinate of the wall.
View 2 RepliesCustom User Controls - Correct Size With User Choice
Sep 27, 2011I have some custom user controls in my .net winforms program that do not display correctly when the user has selected larger text size. This setting:
My controls look like this:
Instead of like this:
The bill to area and ship to area are both custom controls. I don't know if this is contributing to the problem but I do have code in each to scale the phone/fax areas to stretch nicely, like this code from the bill to control,
Private Sub panFaxPhone_Resize(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles panFaxPhone.Resize
panFax.Width = (panFaxPhone.Width / 2) - 1
panPhone.Width = (panFaxPhone.Width / 2) - 1
panFax.Left = panFaxPhone.Width - panFax.Width
End Sub
How can I get my controls to size correctly while still respecting the users choice for larger text (I don't want to just set the AutoScaleMode to None)? After playing with this for a long time it seems to be a problem with anchors in the child controls. See this below image, the inner black box is the control with its border turned on, the text boxes (like name) are anchored left and right and should stretch to fill the control, but don't.

Interface And Graphics :: Anchors In Custom Controls?
Oct 21, 2008I'm having some problems with custom controls and anchors today. I made a custom control containing a picture box and a vertical scroll bar. When I adjust the form the custom control outer area (the blank part) will adjust to the size of the form but the picture box and scroll bar do not. I have the picture box anchored to all sides and the vertical scroll bar anchored to the right side. They just will not adjust with the control when it is resized on the form.
View 4 RepliesInterface And Graphics :: Custom ListBox Control
Dec 8, 2009I'm trying to build a custom ListBox control as inspired by the 'Audi Infotainment System' on high-end Audi vehicles. The only difference is i would like to have a 'boundary' where when scrolling up/down moves the actual list up or down. Basically, i would like my list to act like a normal ListBox except i would like to show say one or two items above and below normally only visible items.
View 3 RepliesInterface And Graphics :: Custom Right-Click Menus?
Oct 29, 2008I'm trying to bring up a simple right-click menu on a listbox and I'm having little luck with it. I created a basic ContextMenuStrip named "ContextMenuStrip1" and I'm trying to call it in the ListBox's Mouse Click method:
Code:
Private Sub ListBox1_MouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles ListBox1.MouseClick
If (e.Button = Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Right) Then
ContextMenuStrip1.Show(MousePosition)
End If
End Sub
So here's what it's actually doing. The right mouse button doesn't seem to activate MouseClick at all for this object. It is caught in MouseDown, but when I try to call this from that method, the ListBox Index doesn't change. How can I get a right-click to be called from the MouseClick (Not imperative) and how do I get the ListBox to change the index with a right-click?Also, the menu looks like one of Office's right-click menu that can have an image to the left of the text. When I don't have an image the text is about 50 pxls or so away from the left edge. This looks weird. Can I change that?

View 1 RepliesInterface Class (IUser) Which Is The Interface Of Class User?
Jan 17, 2009I have an interface class (IUser) which is the interface of class User. Now, i want to put these into an IList but am confused as to how i should declare the IList:Dim userList As IList(Of IUser) = New List(Of IUser) Dim userList As IList(Of User) = New List(Of User) Dim userList As IList(Of IUser) = New List(Of User) Dim userList As IList(Of User) = New List(Of IUser) when instantiating should you always use its implementation; and when using it as a type use its interface?
And when im creating a new user should i use: Dim myUser as IUser = new User?

View 2 RepliesIDE :: User Interface In Setup Project?
Dec 23, 2009i have few questions about the user interface when working with a VS setup project
1. i have added a Checkboxes dialog, i have 3 checkboxes they are used to select upon 3 tools to be installed, so during the progress of the instilation, how should i let the project know which of the 3 tools was selected ? (i hope i was clear)
2. a bit of silly question - is it possible to edit something in a dialog ? like in my case in the "finished" dialog my customer didnt like the the end button is named "close" and he wants it to be named "Finish"
finally, this is an extra non programing but it would be good if i was able to find an answere :P, when i plug a USB in the computer it opens the autoplay, and i have my instilation file in the USB (it will be distributed on a USB rather than a CD), so i want to add to the autoplay a button that runs the instilation file

View 2 RepliesUser Interface For Various File Locations
Sep 11, 2009I have a generic question regarding file paths and user interfaces. I am trying to build a user-interface to accommodate various file locations. I typically build interfaces which deal with files on drives. As such, I use a directory tree for this. I usually work with files on local drives. However if I wanted to ensure that all file locations were dealt with I would want to ensure that I was accommodating files in all drives (local, network, mappped etc.). I am assuming that the treeview would support all of these drive option.
However if the files are on a sharepoint site or in some other type of enterprise content system, then am I correct to assume that these file paths will be URLs? If so, then am I correct to assume that a directory tree is not the correct control to use for these locations? Should I be providing a textbox to the user and prompting them to enter this URL? Or is it better to have the URL loaded into a ListView or ListBox (i.e. "My Connections") and then provide these as options via a dropdown box. I am trying to picture a typical user interface. Is it a directory tree AND a text box/dropdown box.
User Interface Not Reflecting Changes Make?
Mar 23, 2012Basically the question is, Why are NONE of the changes I've been making in the designer reflecting on the program when it runs ?'none' is in bold because I've tried moving everything around and nothing seems to be affecting it, it's like it's reading from a different design file, I tried reloading the project and that did nothing, and none of my code affects position of any items on the form (way too much to post it all)

View 4 RepliesDevelopment User Interface With Toolbox Elements?
Aug 2, 2010I have to develop a software able to perform some scientific calculations in the field mechanical engineer; to be more precise, this software must be able to predict the torsional vibration behaviour of crankhsfts and drive-trains.To build my model I need a library of pre-configured elements (organised in a toolbox), that I can drag&drop in my working area and then link together properly to build the model itself.Also the load cases and the input data should be organised in a toolbox as pre-configured elements that I can chose and fill-in accordingly.Here my questions:
1. how can I develop such a toolbox?
2. how can I develop my working area?
Many commercial software are organised like that but I have no idea how to do it.
Loosely Couple A Process To A User Interface For VBA And / Or .Net?
Sep 22, 2011In fact, the process is being written into a library to be pulled in from other applications. However, how do I provide a way for a WinForm to subscribe to the process to update as the process gets executed? I've open this question from both VBA/VB6 and .Net because its part of the gamut for UI development.It's also worth mentioning that these are subroutines and not classes that are running the methods, so event raising appears to be out of the question.[code]
