This is the current code I have so far[code]...
Currently the program starts by displaying a character to screen, but I would like it to first wait 5 seconds before displaying the first character.
Then the character should not change until the user presses the corresponding character, upon which after a further 5 seconds a new character appears.
I am creating a program which displays text to the screen.
I would like to be able to set the program to have a timer so that when the user has selected the letter, after say 5 seconds a new letter appears.
I have added the current code below.
Code:
Public Class Form1
Private Display As Boolean
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

am really getting to know more about programming each day. really interesting.

How do I get a VB program to display a character to the screen after clicking a button and then once the character has been pressed for the character to dissapear from the screen?

View 4 RepliesI have a problem in timers, I want to display 2 forms each one after 3 and 5, how to do that? I mean when the first form appears, after 3 seconds another one will appear, then after 5 seconds the second will appear. I have a code where someone gave me here but its for message box only, thus I modify it to put a form still does not work. Here the code I put in the timer below:
Private Sub frmblabla_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
tmrnote.Start()
Private Sub tmrnote_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tmrnote.Tick[code]....
I still have problem when the message box stops, it displays all the forms together. All I want is when the message box stops, then it display the first form then stop to display the second then stop to display the last. The first form must stay for 3 seconds on the screen, then after 3 seconds the second appears then after 5 seconds the last appears.
I want a rich text box to display public variables like (pizza toppings links etc that have been selected in other forms) these variables have declare in a module. But I want the rich text box to display these variables as soon as the screen loads ( a on form load event) if you know what I mean.
View 1 RepliesMy timer pauses (sort of the display portion (label) of the timer indeed pauses, however when the timer is resumed it starts again, but not at the point where it was disabled. As an example. If I pause the timer at 10:00 and wait ten seconds when I hit resume it starts at 09:50, where it should resume at 10:00 or 09:59

Public SessionTime As String

I have two timers in my application. One that updates some text label every 100 ms, and another one which makes the text scroll to the left. Both timers are working fine, however,if Timer2 is enabled i get some problems while playing fullscreen video in VLC. Usually the mouse dissapears when running full screen and leaving the mouse, but if my program is running (and therefore Timer2 is enabled) the mouse wont dissapear. If i go disable Timer2 theres no problems.. I just dont understand why it is only Timer2 that does this and why timer one doesn't affect VLC? Timer1 and Timer2's code is below
vb.net
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick

I am trying to display a countdown from a timer.
Dim r As New Random()
Timer1.Interval = r.Next(60000, 300000)
Timer1.Enabled = True

Also, I have a long mess of code (follow my signature) that compiles a sentence and displays it in a label. It works fine until I add the loop around the whole thing. Then it does nothing at all.~~the code is not finished. I have a lot of filters to put in place.

I propose to start a project which will take image files from a folder selected by the user, and display them as large as the screen will allow. I shall start with images that will be in the form 'filename.jgp'.I reckon I'll be able to do most of the coding without too much trouble but before I begin I'd like to know that there is a way of discovering the x and y pixel sizes of a .jpg file so that I when expand, or reduce it I will be able to keep the image in the correct aspect ratio.I'd also like to know if there is a way to rotate an image through 90 either clockwise or anticlockwise, (counterclockwise) for those cases where an image is stored sideways due to the difference between taking photographs either in landscape or portrait mode, or even through 180 I guess for if the camera was totally inverted.
View 4 RepliesI am working on a project where I have a signature displayed on the screen that is drawn via code based on data that has been transmitted from another device. This is from one of the samples from MS. The signature displays on screen just fine but I need to convert this to a bmp or jpg so I can save it to disk and/or print it on a report.
Code:
PrivateSub DrawSignature(ByVal g As Graphics)
' background
g.Clear(Color.Cornsilk)
' border
g.DrawRectangle(Pens.Gray, 0, 0, pictSignature.Width - 1, pictSignature.Height - 1)

I have tried creating a new bitmap from the image property of pictSignature but it is empty even though it has an image displayed on screen. This is the first time I have tried to work with this type of coding and am totally at a loss as to what I need to do to get a bitmap from the data.
i made a class which has speed,symbol (string "*") and location what is the acceptable way to actually display the class symbol property on the screen ?the class will be stored in a list<OF T> and will contains hundreds dynamically instances
View 6 RepliesI'm writing a small app which I want to display a splash screen. The problem is my form 1 is appearing before the splash screen disappears. In fact is appears on startup blocking the splash screen. I have some code in form_load and have managed to figure out which line is causing the error, but I cant figure out why or how to prevent it.
The line reads
LoadSettings()
If I comment out this line everything runs fine and there's nothing in that sub that should affect form1. I'm doing this in vb express 2010.
Here's the code for my form_load:
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
LoadSettings() ' this line is causing the problem
My.Application.MinimumSplashScreenDisplayTime = intSSDelay * 1000
'resolution check

I have a quick question regarding the serial port and timer tick event. Basically i have a micro processor connected to the PC via the serial port. With a baurd rate of 38400 set.When the PC sends the micro ":K + VBCRLF" the micro response with a string of information (ASCII encoded) and delimited with a "," and at the end of the transmission a cartridge return line feed is added.Example of sent string:
"12,1134,123,545,76,6868,34,232,1,2,3,6,7,8" These numbers are then split using the VB mystring.split(",") function into an array of strings, then the numbers are converted using ctype. After which my UI is then updated.I have Witten the code in a tick timer event using a timer count of 300ms. Although the program runs and the UI is updated i end it with lots of exception errors. I think allot of this is down to the serial port either timing out or not reading complete string.Or possibly the timer has not executed all the code before another tick event happens Even after adding a few try catch statements i am still having problems. Can anybody suggest a better way of doing it?I was thinking of using a do while loop and at the end a sleep function instead of the timer tick event.I need the speed as i am trying to read and display live data.

I've a form set to size 1240:750. On my PC where I've VB2010 installed, the screen size is set to 1680:1024 and the form can be viewed fine but on a PC with screen size set to 1280:1024 (higher than the form) the form in question is cropped almost a third of it. To adjust the form to everyone screen size I set the below code at load with no avail.
'Autosize form to screen
Me.Height = (SystemInformation.PrimaryMonitorSize.Height) * (0.9)
Me.Width = (SystemInformation.PrimaryMonitorSize.Width) '* (0.9)
Me.MaximumSize = New System.Drawing.Size(Me.Width, Me.Height)
Me.MinimumSize = New System.Drawing.Size(1240, 750)

Hello.. I'm using a splash screen for the first time in an exercise. I have it set up to display the splash screen before going to the main form. I made changes to the splash screen title and copyright information. When I execute the program, the splash screen comes up but it's not displaying the information I changed. When I view the splash screen the changes are saved. It displays the project name where the application name should be.
