Display Circle That Follows Cursor?
May 9, 2010
Okay, so I am making a whiteboard program. So far I managed to generate the ability to draw lines and other small things. The problem is that I want to make a circle that follows the cursor to display what a dot there would look like. I am aware of the creategraphics property of picture boxes, but when I do that the circle stays there and a new one is generated where the mouse is now (an expected result). My question is, is there a way to draw and delete circles as the mouse moves.

I did try using the OvalShape found in the power pack, but I cannot figure out how to display that over the picture box, when I right click the oval nothing happens.

How can I set the curosr to 'cursor.wait' for the whole display screen and not just for the application form? I have tried "Windows.Forms.Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor" And several variations but without success.

I have developed a program which continuously draws a circle using a timer. Now every time the circle gets displays it flickers and which is because i have used me.refresh. Is there any other way to avoid this flickering.
Here is my code
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
Me.sweepAngle += 1
If Me.sweepAngle = 360 Then

How do you get a textbox being using for password entry to display the black circle that you often see in web forms, on the iphone etc etc?
I can change the PasswordChar property to an asterisk no problem and even copying and pasting symbols inserted into Word seemed to work - just couldn't find a symbol that looked like a bullet point!
Can this actually be achieved for a standalone exe, or is it something unique to web forms? Surely copying and pasting symbols from Word isn't actually the answer?

I have a set of cursors (.cur files) that I want to use with my WPF/VB.net application, without changing the cursors system-wide. I am assuming that I would somehow use each WPF object's "cursor" property, but I'm not sure how to use my own cursors.

I am trying to use a windows form as a custom contextmenu which is fine as I have done a form with translucent background colour. However the problem is that I am having problems displaying the form at my cursor position. I have a mdi chaild form in my app and when I right click I want to display my custom contextmenu form at the point where I right click in the mdichild form. The only other thing is that I want the middle of the form to be displayed at the cursor point.

I have the following code to set the cursor position in a 16bit display:
linCursor.x1 = VB6.PixelsToTwipsX(lblDisplay(pintCursorPos).Left) + 10
linCursor.x1 = VB6.PixelsToTwipsX(lblDisplay(pintCursorPos).Left) + 10
linCursor.X2 = VB6.PixelsToTwipsX(lblDisplay(pintCursorPos).Left) + VB6.PixelsToTwipsX(lblDisplay(pintCursorPos).Width) - 10
I need this code to be converted to vb.net.

I have several questions/problems about Cursors.
1. I have a custom cursor that won't display in color, no matter what I do.
2. Can I have Animated Cursors?
3. Why doesn't VB.net support 32 bit cursors, but only 8 bit?
4. Can I have a cursor thats greater than 32x32?

When Window form loads, we are displaying the date (in MM/dd/yyyy format) in the MaskedTextBox control. Currently it is displaying date in MM/dd/yyyy format and displaying cursor at the end of the text. Our requirement is to display the cursor at left position of the text in MaskedTextBox.

I have created a form with a menu-strip containing sub-menus. The sub-menus will open on clicking the menu items but I am willing to display the sub menus on moving the cursor on menu items(mouse-hover). What will be the code for this? Is there any property in menu-strip to display like that?

This VS010 solution is not providing my intended outcome as a custom override of a 'crosshair' or 'reticle' cursor e.Graphics.DrawPath() is the function that isn't working. This
WORKING solution demonstrates how it's supposed to work. The additonal PictureBox added to a Panel is, for reasons I don't understand, not allowing the 'new' cursor to appear.
Option Explicit On
Option Strict On

I have a user control, and want to be able to update its cursor while it is disabled. For example, say that I have a user control whose cursor is Default. The below code works ONLY when the user control is already enabled; if it is disabled the below code doesn't work and the cursor remains Default: Me.MY_USER_CONTROL.Cursor = System.Windows.Forms.Cursors.WaitCursor

I have a custom cursor that I have as a ico file as cur files are only mono coloured and 32x32.
The only problem in using a ico file is that I can't set where the hot spot is and at the moment it is set in the middle of the icon which is no help
I was looking on the msdn website and it said to set the hotspot like this
Dim instance As Cursor
Dim value As Point
value = instance.HotSpot But I don't know how to set the point value to (0,54) which is where I want the hotspot to be located.

Error was 'CursorConverter' is unable to convert 'System.Windows.Forms.Cursor' to 'System.ComponentModel.Design.Serialization.InstanceDescriptor'.

I have created a program that Draw a circle and then you can move it around a picturebox. I have made code so that it changes colour but instead of changing the colour of the circle already been drawn it creates a new circle which when you overlap the original circle with the new circle it cuts part of it.So what I wanted it to do when I change the colour of the circle it changes the colour of the circle already been drawn instead of creating a new circle.

Also I can't use the X and Y coordinate input to move the circle to the entered coordinates.

I drew a filled circle using: pixFractal.CreateGraphics.FillEllipse(RedBrush, MyPoint.X, MyPoint.Y, 16, 16)
I expected the circle to be centered on MyPoint. Instead, it seemed to be drawn as though centered in a square whose upper left corner was at MyPoint.

User launches the application, enters width of circle, then enters width and height of rectangle and presses the button. Then app draws the circle with rectangle inside of it (if it fits). App should output the coordinates x1;y1 , x1;y2 , x2;y1 , x2;y2 (corners of rectangle) somewhere on form and would be great if it could post those coordinates on x and y axes (optional).
