Display World Coordinates In A Text Box?

Mar 31, 2011

At the minute I can display the mouse position using Cusor.Position.ToString() but my screen resolution is widescreem - 1360:768. What about about someone with a standard 1024:768? If I use my application on other computers, it won't work because it deeply depends on mouse co-ordinates

I am aware of a world coordinate system (or something) that will work on all screen resolutions. To use this (which I will need to) I will need to change all of my coordinates in the code? So I'll need to display it in a text box like I did with Cusor.Position.ToString() but what code can I use to get the world coordinate?

There is something like PoibntToScreen and PointToClient but what do these do exactly and how do I use them? I tried using

Code:
MouseCoordinates_tssl.Text = "Mouse Coordinates: " + "{X:" + PointToScreen(New Point(Cursor.Position.X, Cursor.Position.Y)).X.ToString + "; Y:" + PointToScreen(New Point(Cursor.Position.X, Cursor.Position.Y)).Y.ToString + ";}"
but much to my disappointment, it didn't work. What could I do that would work?

Set Coordinates For Each Beam At Intervals Of 610 Then Write That Coordinates System To A Text Based *.SCR File

Dec 2, 2010

I am trying to build a coordinates system but am having trouble with how to.. What I have sofar is a textbox that allows the user to enter a length. This length is user defined but never smaller then 610 in length since this is the minimum unit size we use to build timber frames. The overall length of a timber frame is infinite (well not really, but it is for what I want) the timber frame has beams every 610mm set apart from each other (this is a legal requirement) so I want my vb.net to set coordinates for each beam at intervals of 610 then write that coordinates system to a text based *.SCR file

I've got a project where I want to be able to display a world map and draw lines between cities.I've looked at using a web browser with google maps but don't want it to have to be used while "online"

I've looked and longitude and latitude and converting these to UTM co-ordinates but i'm lost for how to place these on world map programaticly.I have a full list of all cities used in my program and have a list of their latitude and longitude co-ordinates because i need to work out thier distance apart which I have already done the code for.

Translate MouseEventArg.Location X,y Pixel Coordinates To Custom Grid Coordinates?

Nov 29, 2010

I want to translate MouseArgEvent.Location (x,y) coordinates into my custom graph coordinates. Mouse Y coordinates increase from top to bottom while my grid's y value increase from bottom to top. Given my following code, I would need to create 21,500 separate conditional expression for 100(y) x 215(x) possible coordinate locations for my grid.

Sub OnMouseMove(ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs)
If e.X > 48 AndAlso e.X < 50 AndAlso e.Y > 397 AndAlso e.Y < 399 Then

Reading Text File With Given Coordinates

Apr 28, 2011

I have a problem related to a project work of field observations of points. So I have a text file (file.txt) of coordinates X and Y of vertexes (separated by a comma like below):
X, Y
12.2 , 13.1
15.4 , 19.3
13.6 , 12.5
(and so on to 15 lines of x's and y's)

I need a program which can read this text.txt file with the given coordinates and store them as 2 generic lists using Loop and Split function and also the program should display the data read from text.txt file into a multiline text box. Next the program has to use the 2 lists to be passed to a function that first calculates the average values for the coordinates X and Y, and then work out the areas of triangles by = 1/2 SUM [ (xb-xR)(ya-yR)-(yb-yR)(xa-xR) ] where x/y ''a'' is the current vertex and x/y ''b'' is the next vertex in the polygon. I presume the program has to loop around the whole polygon to vertices to summing up the areas of the triangles and at the end multiply by 1/2 and give the positive modulus or ABS() of the area.

Use RegEx To Find The <tr></tr> That Contains The Text "World"?

Dec 8, 2009

I have the following html contained in a string.

<tr>
<td>Hello</td>
</tr>

[Code]....

I would like to use RegEx to find the <tr></tr> that contains the text "World". The difficulty is that there might be other <td> around the one that contains the search text. So we need to be able to search for the <tr> and </tr> nearest to the search text with any text between the <tr> and the search text.

The result of the match would be.

<tr>
<td>World</td>
</tr>

I'm using vb.net by the way.

Is It Better To Start Learning C# Or C++ In .NET World

Mar 25, 2011

I have some very rusty C++ and lots of C experience, but have done little OO design or coding.I've started learning C++.NET as that seemed to be the best starting point.I've hit restrictions in Microsoft's provision with multiple inheritance and extensions, neither work in C++.Would I be better off starting again with C#, or am I better off using a mixed language approach. eg. extensions in C#, rest in C++?I'm still struggling with this->method or that.property and theother::staticthingy or whatever, and this probably is not an issue in C#. You'll see what I mean as that probably isn't the right way to desribe the difference between '->' '.' and '::'I'm getting to achieve what I want, but it's taking me 10 times longer than I think it should.

Intel Pentium 4 /2.53GHZ
1.5 GB RAM
512 MB ATI Radeon HD 2400 PRO AGP Video card

could it be the refresh rate of only 60HZ?

Returning A Real World Time Value?

Nov 2, 2009

I am having a problem trying to get a real time back from this code.

Code:
Public Sub Time()
Dim StartTime As TimeSpan = TimeSpan.Parse(txtStart.Text)
Dim EndTime As TimeSpan = TimeSpan.Parse(txtEnd.Text)

[Code]....

I am using a start time of 09:25 and an end time of 10:15 to test this with. I would like it to return 50, as 50 real world minutes went by. I am getting -1331385.

This is mostly someone else's code from a different forum. I have never used a TimeSpan method before and they keep telling me it works "like what I asked for".

VS 2008 World Time Converter?

Jan 20, 2011

after numerous google searches and comparing excerpts from different peoples' various codes I could not get this program to work, though I came quite close. I'm attempting to make a program that will tell me the time in different parts of the world, a personal use program that I thought would help me exercise my vb skills.

The problem I'm having, however, is that when it should be showing my time it is either 5 hours ahead or 5 hours behind. I tried adding variables and deleted them again time and time again trying to make adjustments but all I managed to do was make the timer get stuck at 12:00:00 AM.

Region.GetRegionScans() - Create A Routing Somewhere In The World, From Point A To B?

I'm having a bit of a problem with a loop I made. So the setup is as following:We can create a routing somewhere in the world, from point A to B...and the program draws it on a worldmap.then I open a file with 300 zones in all over that country and he also draws these zones (it can go from polygons to circles. Some of these polygons are really small...when I click on a button I only want to see the zones which are connected to that routing...
So I use following script:

this works fine, but not for the very small zones...I think when he uses GetRegionScans from those small intersections...the RectangleF is so small that he thinks it's empty.
