I have transparent form with a panel on it also set with a transparent background so you can see rite through it
what im trying to do is when you put the mouse over the panel it displays a picture and when the mouse leaves the picture goes away..the problem is that it doesnt detect the mouse when its over the panel. if i make the form background non-transparent it detects it just fine but i need it to work when both the form and panel are transparent
I created a control that has picture box control docked within it. This control allows me to "animate" the image by swapping them out by setting the interval to swap them at. I want to use this control kind of like an animated icon within a application, but because the picture box is docked, the control I created won't respond to the events, MouseHover specifically. [Code]
I have some code in a label's mousemove event that allows it to be dragged around my form while the left button is held down. While this is happening none of the other controls on the form respond to their own mousemove events as the mouse pointer passes over them. Is it possible to make more than one control respond to mousemove events at the same time?
I've got a couple of instances of a user control on a flowlayoutpanel. The user control has got a couple of controls on it, and very little / almost none of the control's original space is visible. I need to know when the mouse is inside the usercontrol. What then happens is that the border color changes (of a control in the user control), and when it leaves the control, it changes back to original state.
I tried the following: Private Sub ctrDashboardWidgetFrame_MouseEnter(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.MouseEnter Try ShowControls() Catch ex As Exception [Code] .....
And it works, but it only works when you move over the original visible space of the user control, and doesn't work when you move over the child controls inside the user control. How I'll be able to achieve this to also work while the user is inside the full user control and not just it's visible space?
I'm currently debugging a form that sets a flag when the mouse button is pressed, then clears the flag when the mouse button is released. As long as the mouse button is pressed, the user can move the mouse around and a few things happen depending on where they move. One of the things that happens is that a timer starts, or stops, and a few things change color depending on the mouse position. The timer starts when it should, then stops when it should, but once stopped, it is not re-starting when it should. I can verify that MouseMove events are getting through, because coloring changes as I move the mouse, as it should. This would be a simple thing to debug...except that it requires the darn mouse button to be down, and it uses the mouse move event. Anybody who has put a breakpoint in a mouse move event handler knows the issue: There are THOUSANDS of them. Worse yet, since the mouse button is necessary for switching to the IDE, as well as setting a breakpoint (technically, a keyboard shortcut could do this if I could shift focus), I can't wait for the problem to happen, then switch to the IDE and set a breakpoint to see what is happening then.Does anybody have any tips or techniques for debugging in mouse move events when the mouse button is down and has to stay that way? As it is, I'm going to have to write some funky code into the method just so that I have a place to get a breakpoint when I need it without breaking on every one of the mouse move events.
I recently developed a software called MouseMe, which basically records mouse movement and mouse press events. The software itself is in BETA, and I am looking for some testers to have a go at my program.
Im Using VB 2008. I have MsgBox() statements in all Mouse & Form Click events to TEST & NOTHING FIRES during Form Load when I click on Form or Button Controls !!! The Form Load event contains code for Displaying the Label.Text control many times with changes in the Text to simmulate annimation.
Is there a way to detect when a label is clicked without doing on click events for all the labels? I want to be able to detect the click, find what has been clicked, then I can change the label since I'll know which one has been clicked.
how to get VB to detect mouse movement, clicks and keyboard presses. I am creating a screensaver program that does not intergrate with the windows screensaver.
The reason I am doing this is because I am trying to invent a screensaver that people can use their custome pictures to see with password protection for their PC when the screensaver facility has been disabled on a domain.
Well im trying to make my own basic Slider control just so i can learn abit how to interact with the mouse...
so far i have this:
vb.net: Private Sub Rectangle_MouseMove(ByVal sender as Object, ByVal e as System.Windows.Input.MouseEventArgs)
[Code]....
so this works while the mouse is on the rectangle.. but if we look how the slider behaves its not the same you click and hold the mouse down and can drag it any where even outside of the window and it still updates its position..
I am working on a project which will be installed in Embedded pc which won't have mouse and keyboard. Works with touch screen. I have an option in my software to make calls.I need to have an option like Push to talk. When need to talk they need to push the button and when they release they can't talk. Something like walkie talkie concept. The embedded pc where my software will be installed will have touch screen. How can I do this??
I tried to write my code in button click event and when they take out the mouse from the button, I am stopping voice. But, that is not I want. I need to push to talk and release after talk.
Apologies as this has probably been answered a million different times a million different ways already. I'm trying to control the mouse. I wish to move the mouse to a given pixel position (x, y) and cause a click. I don't want this to be limited within a form, as I want to control another application. I'm using VB 2005.
The GetAsyncKeyState Api does'nt recognizes the mouse wheel rotation, I see.Is there way to control the mouse wheel rotation (always, not only when the pointer is over a form of mine) with a simple API, without to Hook the mouse?
I'm making an app that will be able to repeat the user's mouse movement, and also clicks.I have managed to repeat the movement but i have no idea where to start in detecting click outside of form..
To detect rotation of the mouse wheel in .NET/WinForms, I can override OnMouseWheel. Clicking can be detected by overriding OnMouseDown (it's just the Middle button). But how do I detect tilting of the wheel (tilt to the left/right for horizontal scrolling)? Neither OnMouseWheel, not OnMouseDown is being called when I tilt the mouse wheel.
I'm writing a little application that needs to detect when a USB Mouse is Connected and Disconnected. I am running into a dead end when trying to determine the best way detect this. I have tried WMI and WmdProc but I think I am hitting a mental block trying to figure out the best option.best way to listen for the connection and disconnection of a USB mouse?
When the user releases the left mouse button (MouseUp) anywhere on the screen (whether it be outside of the form or not), I want a message to be shown. How do I do this?
I have a form with 2 contols that I with to connect by drawing a "wire" on the screen. It goes like this: you mouse down on the first control then move the mouse while holding the mouse button down. When the mouse is over the 2nd control the mouse button is released and the controls are wired.
So I am playing with mouseup, down, move, etc. When the mouse is over the first control I get mouse moves from that control, but when it moves off the events stop, and I get no events from the form even though the mouse is there.
Is there a way to do this? I have seen it done in a Java app. I could brute force it and just draw a box on the form instead of a control, but that sounds like a step back.
Normally the event: PanelTransparentMarquee_MouseUp is only raised when the mouse is within the PanelTransparentMarquee panel. I'd like it raised where ever the mouse is on the screen.So in the load event for the usercontraol containing
PanelTransparentMarquee panel I inserted PanelTransparentMarquee.Capture = True
But I still only get the PanelTransparentMarquee_MouseUp event when the mouse is within the PanelTransparentMarquee panel.
I am writing a program to draw lines over an existing image within a PictureBox. The routine works perfectly INSIDE the PictureBox (I'm drawing a rubberband line), but I cannot get the mouse to work on any buttons OUTSIDE the picturebox. (In this example, Button1 doesn't respond)
