View 1 RepliesI made a custom button by inheriting the Button class. When I double click the custom button in Designer, it makes the event handling function for MyButton.Click:
Private Sub MyButton1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyButton1.Click

I know this is really picky, but can I have one template inside a user control:

View 9 RepliesI created a Custom Class and Implemented a Type Converter for it. I used this Custom Class as a new property of a Custom Control.Everything is fine at design time. I can set the values of this property but at run-time the values i entered resets back to the initial declaration i made.
View 5 RepliesIf we say blue is the default colour of the Backcolor property I understand it as if you don't specify a colour for Backcolor blue will be its colour. But I could not make sense of default property of a class in the context of building a custom user control. After calling an instance of a class we have to either call one of its members or assign an other object for it. Therefore why should there be a default property?

View 4 RepliesI am trying to re-code a com object that was developed in c++ using vb.net. I have successfully recreated the methods and have been able to register my new vb.net com class with regasm and use it from vb-script. The issue is that the previous class used a coclass with a default interface allowing us to create objects in our vb scripts by simply calling the library.
eg.
Code:
dim z
set z = createobject("library")
my com object requires that i do the following
eg.
Code:
dim z
set z = createobject("library.interface")
because we do not want to redo all our vb scripts is there a way to have my code function in the same manner as the previous c com object? with out getting into great detail my vb code to create the class looks as follows which is essentially what vb.net provides me. for simplicity I have not added my methods.

I have a problem to handle an event on a custom control a have on a form.... So first i made a custom control that is just a groupbox with some labels and txtboxes. That control i add dynamically to my form like this (Baycontrol is the name of my control)

Friend Bay(29) As BayControl
Add the controls to Form
Code:
For Simindex = 0 To 29 'Me.Bays - 1

I've got a page (aspx) that contains a usercontrol (ascx).On postback of the aspx, I'd like to read some control values in the ascx. So upon reading some good articles, I created an event in my aspx that fires on postback.The event handler is in the ascx, and simply writes the values I'm interested in to the viewstate so that the parent page can read them.The problem is my event handler never gets hit, even though I see the event is raised as I step through the code. So my code bombs when trying to read the viewstate (which is empty)[code]Oh, did I happen to mention I'm dynamically loading the ascx? :)

Dim L As New Label
AddHandler L.Click, AddressOf Labclick
Me.Controls.Add(L)
I know how to do click events but how how do i make an event for it that does something when the mouse hovers over one of the Labels?for example if the mouse hovers over a label it changes text color to RED...when mouse leaves it changes back to BLACK?
I'm writing a custom textblock control thats populate hyperlinks and raises event when clicked to hyperlink.
I wrote this code but I got stucked.

This code gives error at RaiseEvent Klik(sender, EventArgs.Empty)
Error is : Cannot refer to an instance member of a class from within a shared method or shared member initializer without an expliticit instance of the class.
After inserting an user control and double clicking on it, a stub with the default event should appear.
If I don't define what the default event is and I don't assign any attributes to any events or properties, it works, and it generates the stub for the UserControl.Load event (the default default event).
But if I set some attributes for the properties and events and/or I define the default event, the stub generated is corrupted. Here is an example of what I should get:
Private Sub FaceSelector_OnSelect(SelectedObjects As System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection(Of Object)) Handles FaceSelector.OnSelect
End Sub
And this is what I actually get: Private Sub SketchSelector_OnSelect( SelectedObjects As System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection`1)
End Sub
Private Sub FaceSelector_OnSelect( SelectedObjects As System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection`1)
End Sub
In this case I had 5 user controls, I double clicked on one of them, and I got 2 corrupted stubs.
Sometimes the corrupted stubs are generated when I change some properties of other controls in the form, or the form itself. For example I resize the form, the error window doesn't show any errors, hit F5 to compile and run, and get a syntax error.
I tried to track the problem down by removing each event/property attribute/xml description, one by one, many times I thought I found the culprit, but after 10 minutes the problem popped up again.
I am having problem in adding click event to my custom label control

I'm using a third party grid control which I took and inherited to create some custom properties and events to it. Now when I tried to use this custom control on one of my forms one of the Events that I try to use keeps giving me an error and saying that the signature of the event does not match. It's only for this particular event and it doesn't give me the problem on every form I use this control on. To fix the problem, I constantly have to clean/rebuild the project with the custom grid control and then clean/build the project using the grid control. I'm using VS 2005 and the grid control I'm using is called iGrid.NET made by a company called 10Tec.
The exact error I get is below.
Method 'Private Sub iGridFlightInfo_BeforeCommitEdit(sender As Object, e As TenTec.Windows.iGridLib.iGBeforeCommitEditEventArgs)' cannot handle Event 'Public Event BeforeCommitEdit(sender As Object, e As TenTec.Windows.iGridLib.iGBeforeCommitEditEventArgs)' because they do not have the same signature.
I had this new idea for a user control Sliding Bar/Panel. See screenshot. So I quickly whipped it up but I've got this problem that I cannot figure out why it does not work. Because I wanted to make it nice and tidy I desided to use a Class (Header) and created a TypeConverter (HeaderConverter)
Code:
Public Class HeaderConverter : Inherits ExpandableObjectConverter
Protected SortOrder() As String
Public Sub New()
SortOrder = New String() {"Text", "Depth"}
End Sub

and goes to the RaiseEvent but nothing happens Why?
I know I could put properties on the Container control to access the ctnbutton Control that is embedded into the control but I thought this might be a nicer way.
I was asked to create an application that has a custom control that acts as a button. I managed to do almost all the requirements except the one for the KeyPress event. The customer wants to click the "Alt + C (for example)" to trigger the button click event in this case for a Cancel button. I did the code and it works fine ONLY when that custom control has the focus on it. But when it loses it, it doesn't. I don't know how to make the form accepts that KeyPress and sends to the custom control. I tried to set the form's KeyPreview property of the form to Ture but it didn't work too.
By the way, I know that it would work by writing the code in the KeyPress of the form but that's not the requirement because the user control will be used as a standalone component for many projects.
I have a user control (SomeUserControl), that I am using in a Main Window. I write my application entirely on SomeUserControl, and Main Window is hosting SomeUserControl and nothing else.
Right now I have a shutdown button (in SomeUserControl), that is supposed to close the Main Window. The reason for this is that I do not want anything from SomeUserControl to close the application itself, but to fire an event from SomeUserControl, and Main Window receives it, and Main Window will close the application instead of SomeUserControl.
How do I do it? I am not familiar with the concept of creating and handling custom events, so if someone could explain it in words and in code as an example, I will be very grateful to you!
Edit: Here's my code so far.
(in Window 2)
Public Event CloseApp As EventHandler
Private Sub CancelButton_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs) Handles CancelButton.Click
DialogResult = False
[Code]....
I want to close the application when I click cancel in Window 2, but I don't want to do it in such a way that Window 2 closes itself, but by sending some notification to Main Window, and Main Window closes the application.
I'm creating an ASP.NET Custom Control for my web application which is basically an ASP.NET Button control contained inside multiple <div> elements (for styling purposes).How can I create a Click event handler for my custom control so that my control acts as an ASP.NET Button?
Ie.
<cc:Button id="myButton" runat="server" Text="Submit" />
Sub myButton_Click(sender as object, e as EventArgs) Handles myButton.Click
End Sub
I need a multiline TextBox which is always disabled, but it shouldn't paint itself in gray, but I want to keep its designer choosen color. I previously had the same requirement with an always-black Label (no multiline) and so I inherited from Label like:
Imports System.ComponentModel
Public Class LabelDisabled
Inherits Label
Sub New()
InitializeComponent()
Enabled = False
End Sub
[Code] .....
But this way, neither I can set the "real" Enabled property, I mean the backing field.
I am making an interface that has a number of events defined in it. When I implement the interface in a class the events will show up. I want to force a class that implements my interface to also have to make the event handlers too. I don't care where the class raises the event, but I want them to have to define what happens once the event is raised. Is this possible and if so, how do I do it?

i am currently building a MDI application. Both my Add and Edit screen use a form called frmStaffDetails.
On load, this form is redefined as 'AddStaffChild' and 'EditStaffChild' dependant on which menu item is selected. I've defined the CurrentForm as Form.ActiveForm.ActiveMdiChild.
Within a module I am checking the text within certain textboxes. So for example here I am checking a name has been inputted. If it has, then I will allow the record to be saved.
[Code]...
The problem I am having is that this code works perfectly if the textbox control is not within a Tab Control. As soon as I put it in a tab page I get the error.
"Referenced object item has a value of Nothing" Also if I reference it directly for example
If Not AddStaffChildForm.txtFirstName.Text this works fine too, but i want it to be more genric so I can use it for my edit screen as well. How can I define a control within a Tab Control from a module (or any other way to declare a public sub).
I have created a User Control (UC) where user type the information it needed and save it ti MS SQL Database and also have created a User Control dedicated for it's button, since my main form has split container and has two panels, one for UC which contain the button only and the other one for my Main UC where user enter the information.I created a Module that contain the function on adding the data type in UC Main to the database.

on My UCButton named "Save" I just call the function AddUserInformation. But the problem is the variable where it bind to the ucUserControlMain textbox remains Blank, When i query the my database table, only the UserInforID and the DateAdded has been updated and the other column remains blank where the variable get it in the UCMain Textbox...
I've read thru Iceplug's tutorial on control arrays and got it working. I tried to add a new event by basically copying his click event code and calling it a doubleclick event. I used the proper addhandler and assigned the correct name to my sub. I have the click event changing the background color to blue and the doubleclick event changing the background color to green. The background color does not change to green. Why?
