Disable Mouse While Mouse Is Over WebBrowserControl?
Jun 11, 2009
I have a WebBrowserControl on my main form and it auto navigates and all that just fine! What I would like to do is not allow the user to click anywhere within the WebBrowserControl while the program is running. Reason for this is that the browser self-navigates to a view of cameras and this shows scrollbars. My program then takes screenshots of specific coordinates on the screen so I do not want the user to use the scrollbars or highlight or do ANYTHING to the page once the program starts. I would like to change the cursor icon to like a red X or something similar to indicate no user functionality.
Im using Visual Basic 2008 Express..Is there a way to disable mouse click for a while in Visual Basic 2008, I mean if mouse was clicked more than 1 time in very short time to click only once? -- I need it because my mouse became like crazy one.. when I click once it may clicks twice or more.so until I buy another one, I'd like to filter click, to allow only one click and to block another clicks that were made in last second.
I have two custom action listers. One that handles Mouse.Click and one that handles Mouse.MouseDown. My question to you is, can I delay the mouse down event so that it does not intefere with the code of the Mouse.Click event? I have tried adding a timer and waiting x amount then setting a bool value to true, but the code executes to fast and it skips the other code.
I am looking to create a VB.NET application. when the application is opened it will disable the keyboard and mouse so if you hit any keys it does nothing and you can not move the mouse. (even if currently selected window is not that of application).
What I have so far is a program that moves the mouse around my application. I used a bit a maths as well to make the movement smooth. Here's my code for anyone who is interested:
Code: Public Sub MoveMouseCursor(ByVal DestinationX, ByVal DestinationY) Dim DifferenceX As Integer = MousePosition.X - DestinationX Dim DifferenceY As Integer = MousePosition.Y - DestinationY
[Code].....
Now with my problem. When the program is running, the last thing I want is for the user to be moving the mouse because the program would get disrupted. How can I enable and disable the use of the mouse for the users benefits really because if they even knock the mouse slightly it could cause them a few difficulties. Anyway, I am hardly restricting them from using their computer because there is only one mouse. If they want my program to run, then they will have to except the fact that they can't do something else in the mean time. Also, after the program has finished running, I will need to enable the mouse again.
I have an application in Visual Basic Express 2008 that just has a Windows Media Player control on a blank form. In order to prevent the user from double clicking which would result in the media player full screening, I want to disable both right and left mouse clicks on the form and Windows Media Player control. Any suggestions?
How can I disable the mouse while it is over my web browser control. I do some code-navigating so I do not want the user to interact with the control while it is doing its thing (and it has to be visible)
I am kind of amazed that there is no answer to this anywhere and I mean anywhere. I am looking for a way to disable the keyboard (actually all input) on a computer. There are several threads about it but no one has ever posted any serious, working code. I know someone is going to inevitably ask "why would you want to do that"? Actually why I want to do it is immaterial but if you must know... I am playing with a "USB Keylock". When this USB Keylock is not present in the computer I want to disable the keyboard. When it is present I want to enable the keyboard.
i would like to write a function that when i click a button, the monitor will go in to standby mode, and then when i press the keyboard, it will wake up, but i do not the mouse wake up my monitor, how can i prevent my mouse wake up my monitor or how can i disable the mouse move?
Does anyone know of a way to disable the mouse scroll wheel when a control such as a ombobox or listbox has focus? For my purposes, combobox is all I need the answer for.I have a combobox set to trigger a SQL query on SelectedIndexChanged, and accidentally scrolling the wheel while the combobox has focus causes about six SQL queries to fire off simultaneously.
I want to disable the funtionality of using a mouse when using a touch screen monitor in vb.net. the reason why i ask is because i want to limit users to only one option. is there a way I can code this in vb.net 2010.

I have scoured the net for help with this problem of temporarily disabling mouse clicks on a VB Net form and have not been able to find a solution that works.
I'd like to prevent users form clicking on a form when i'm doing some background processing. To me it sounds simple in theory but apparently its not.
I have done some reasearch on disabling the mouse and keyboard both on Google and on the forum and what ever i find can not get to work. What I'm trying to do is on a click of a button it will disable the mouse and keyboard. It must work in W
Finishing off my control, but I now found a nasty problem. When the user holds the 'Ctrl' key and scrolls the mouse scrollwheel, the control is scaled. I do not want that, since it would make the Font size fail.
I previously made it reset the scale on Control up, but that is just not a very elegant way:
Me.ZoomFactor = 1 I do not want the text scaled at any time, not even while the user is scrolling and it resets afterwards. I got to overriding the 'ProcessCmdKey' but no idea how to catch a scroll or zoom event.
Any way of disabling the RichTextBox scaling (or zooming) so it does not even occur? I have a control that inherits from the RichTextBox.
I've been working on a GUI in WPF which I'm fairly new to, having only used Windows Forms up until now. So far, my GUI is very simple: it contains two rectangles, each of which drops a shadow. The shadow creates an effect of rectangles "floating above the canvas" so to speak.
When one of the rectangles is pressed, the myRectangle.MouseDown event is handled such that the shadow goes away, thus creating an effect of the rectangle being pressed down onto the canvas, like a button.Similarly, when mouse button is released, the myRectangle.MouseDown event is handled such that the shadow reappears and the rectangle "floats" again. This behavior make them resemble buttons. Note, there a reasons I want them to be rectangles and not custom buttons.
[Code]...
If the pointer leaves a rectangle while mouse button is pressed, I'd like shadow to reappear. This is arguable simple, because theoretically in this case, any time myRectangle.MouseLeave is raised, the shadow should come back on, even if it was already there.If the pointer left a rectangle when mouse button was pressed, then came back while before the button was released, I want the shadow to disappear again. This one is what gives me problems. No idea how to do this.
I am new to VB.NET, Now i'm working with Events in VB.NET, I have two event methods, Mouse Click and Mouse Down for a single button in a form, I have displyed a message in each of these methods but only mouse down event is triggered. Why Mouse Click is not triggered? Similiarly I Did the same for Mouse Enter and Mouse Move for a particular button, in this case both the events are triggered.
I was wondering if there is anyway I can get mouse coordinates when I click on a mouse button inside a listbox? I know how to do it in the form but when I click inside a listbox nothing happens.
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.
how to raise the mouse leave and mouse hover events for VB when i place my mouse cursor over the button.
When my mouse cursor is over the buttons, it will raise the mouse hover event and open the form, then when the mouse leaves the button, it will close the form upon raising the mouse leave event.
but currently, When i excute this two events, the for will open and close very,very fast. so fast that it is like spamming the VB.
So i am wondering how to change the code that i have to excecute the event one time every time the mouse is over the button which is created at run time.
the codes to execute these two events are:
Private Sub Button_MouseLeave(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) For Each ctl As Control In PictureBox1.Controls
[URL] I have tried heslacher's method which is Hi clzanas, you problems had been the result of calling a for each loop inside the events. If you only want for the button you hoover / leave to call the ShowDetails.Open/close, then you can take the code below:
Private Sub Button_MouseLeave(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) If TypeOf sender Is Button Then ShowDetails.Close()
[code]....
But i got the same results as my previous code, resulting in the form opening and closing so fast that it is like spamming the window.
My computer is set for lets say a 15 minute begore the screensaver and passwork have to be re-entered.Is there a way using VB to simulate a keypress or mouse movement if no key was pressed or mouse moved within the 15 minutes?
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?
