Determine If Mouse Hovers Over A Drawn Line?
Apr 26, 2011
I'm creating a type of drawing program. The user can draw a line, much like in word or paint, etc. But once the line is drawn (to a picturebox or bitmap in memory), I want the user to be able to click on the line and drag it around (translate it).
If I know the coordinates of the endpoints of the line, as well as the pen width it was drawn with, how can I tell if a certain coordinate (mouse location) is contained by the line?
My first thought was to take a mathematical approach, like get an equation for a line, and check to see if the coordinate belonged to it. But for a higher pen width, the line is thicker, and thus contains more points.
How can I tell what coordinates are part of the line? Is there some sort of intersect function in the gdi that takes a line?

I have little Problem with my ListView. When the mouse cursors hovers over an item in the first column, all the subitems of that line dissapear. If I click in it, they eppear agein. Also, they appear, if I hover the mouse over each of them.This my code for DrawSubItem-Event. I don't have implemented a DrawItem-Event because that made it even worse.
Private Sub lvResult_DrawSubItem(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DrawListViewSubItemEventArgs) Handles lvResult.DrawSubItem

I have created a menu using a treeview to launch forms when the user clicks on a node. To complete the look-and-feel, I have set up the nodes to look like hyperlinks. I'd like to have the cursor change to a hand (like the one you see when you hover over a link) when the user hovers over a node, however so far I've only been able to have the cursor change on hovering inside the treeview, as opposed to over a node. As far as I can tell, a TreeNode doesn't have events such as MouseEnter, so I can't have them handle the events themselves.
I am attempting to use this function to loop through the nodes and check the Bounds property of the TreeNode against the Point property of the cursor, but so far the If block always evaluates to false, meaning that the cursor never changes.[code]...

My project is working well, without any problems and I just need to add another feature, if it is possible.I'm looking for a way to be able to have a Text Balloon (I'm not sure if this is the correct description or not) that will appear when the mouse curser hovers over an object in order to display text, letting the user know exactly what this particular object does.For instance, the text balloon would say: "Download Link" when the mouse hovers over a picture or maybe "Opens Software Window".In one case it does "Open" a new window when clicked on, but I need a balloon pop-up text to say that it will open a new window.

I am using this code to draw a line on a form using textboxes as the x and y coordinates. I then click the button with the code below that will draw the line.
Before the new line is drawn, I would like to have previous lines deleted first.
How can I delete these lines?

I want to draw lines (paths) for AI to follow. I need to know the X,Y coordinates of each pixel in the line.Lines drawn straight vertical (0 or 180 Degs), diagonal (45 or 225 Degs), or horizontal (90 or 270 Degs) are easy to map.I need to know how to map straight lines that are not one of the those three. Like 1 degree to 44 degrees, 46 degrees to 89 degrees, and so on...

Currently I have not found a way to generate an event when a user clicks on a line that is drawn in my workspace area. The line that is drawn is created by calling the function e.Graphics.Drawline(Connector,X1,Y1,X2,Y2), where Connector is a System.Drawing.Pen object and X1,Y1,X2,Y2 are integer coordinates of the two points to draw the line between. I have not found any events such as Click that are associated with the line that I can use. Do I need to create a custom event for these lines if so how do I go about this?

I have drawn (3) lines on a panel, each a diff color. I want user to muse click on a given line to bring up a label that will explane what the line is telling the user. There s/b no bit maps involved. I am using graphics to draw the panels and lines.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

My code above will draw the line but i can not see how to use path to get a "hit" on mouse move for the line?I use private routines to draw many panels and assign pens to colors and panels. I must be able to connect panel and line ID to pen name to know the nature of the line to label it! I can see that path must be used; but how?

I need to draw several line-graphics on a form, then select and drag individual graphics to new locations. Is it possible for example to give each graphic path an identity when drawn, then select any one (via mousedown, whatever) and link it to the dragged mouse co-ordinates until released? MS Visio has exactly this ability - can it be done in .NET?

I have a form, that acts like a drop-down, that I display non-modal. I attach a mouse hook to the form to determine when the mouse is clicked out of it, so that I know to close it - by setting Visible = False.
Because I want the HookProc to handle the last click, I can't dispose the Hook or my Dropdown until I'm sure that my event handler has returned to the HookProc.[code]...

I want to detect when my touchpad is clicked! I normally use a usb mouse, so I don't use the touchpad for anything. Instead I'd like to make it possible to perform an action in .NET, when the touchpad is clicked. This way I can use it as a shortcut: One tap and something cool happens.
Is this possible, and if yes, any clue how? I'd prefer if it could be working in VB.NET or C#. My theory is that I'd have to make a mousehook, which then somehow determines which device the click is coming from. If the click is determined to be from the touchpad, then cancel the click and doWhatever().

I have a program that has two list boxes. I want to have the user right click either listbox and remove an item using the context menu option. I have tried to use GetChildAtPoint (control.mouseposition) but I cannot return a control the mouse is over. I then tried to use the _Click event of the context menu to get the sender, but the sender is the contextmenu control. Here is the code I am using:
Dim ctrl As Control = Me.GetChildAtPoint(Control.MousePosition)
If ctrl Is Nothing Then
Exit Sub

way to reset a timer if there is form activity so it will not expire until the mouse has been at rest for 2 minutes.
This timer runs for 120000 milliseconds usually, and sometimes it lapses (and logs you out) when you are in the middle of editing. Sometimes 2 minutes is not enough time to do all the edits. So I wish to reset the remaining interval as long as there is mouse activity. But I am not sure the best method to do this?
I have found the mousemove event but to me this seems like it's going to fire way too often and tax the resources if I preform operations here, maybe not? Is there a better way to get this functionality?
I want this functionality so that if someone starts editing on the UI and walks off/gets distracted it will lock the grids back so that some other user can't come dork things up.

i have designed a form that generates e-mails for outlook. the form has a textbox which allows the user to write extra notes. these notes are then added to the e-mail body at the end.
here is the issue, suppose the user wants to enter the following as extra notes.but when i actually add this to the end of the e-mail body i get something like this
"Please send us a replyyours truly,user" i has similar issues when i was generating the e-mail body as i was not using the default SMTP client server but some other methods to generate the e-mail
i know how to make the characters come to the next line, but i do not know how can i determine when the user has moved to the next line is there a way to determine this, and if there is how can i replace it with this character " %0d%0A"

I'm writing a text editor for my own use ( I'm "home learning") where I want to be able to leave comments for myself, like in code section of the VB express IDE. I have figured out how to get the Integer Location of the apostrophy, but can't get it to color the rest of the line. I don't know how to tell the program to find the integer value of the last character in the line. I need that to be able to subtract the apostrophy's location from the last character's location, to get the "SelectedLength". Then I can add that to the apstrophy's location to give the SelectedLength the SelectionColor.This code was thrown together from excerpts of several codes I found on the web. I had to rewrite everything to get it to do what it does so far...
Apostrophy Location is char # 534 , the end of the line is 547. ( I cheated to get that count by placing another apostrophy there, and reclicking the btn. )Anyway, I want to take 547 - 534 to get (13) the SelectionLength, then give the SelectionColor ( green) to that selected text.
[CODE]
Dim Location As Integer
Dim char3() As String = {"'"}
Dim z As Integer = CStr(vbCrLf.Count)

I try to detect when the mouse is over a curve in zedgraph, I am capable of doing it if the mouse is over a point of the curve, but the problem is when the curve has no points in that region,let me show you an example:
Curve is defined by 2 points: [X=0;Y=10] -- [X=1000;Y=10]
If mouse is at point [X=500;Y=10] it is over the curve, but not over any point so i cannot detect it.Is there any event which gets fired when mouse is over line but not necessarily over a point?
