Draw Control Past Edge Of Form?
Feb 24, 2010
I've got a usercontrol that's a simple rectangle with three labels on it. It's essentially triggered to give a caption to an image when the mouse is moved over it. As I feared, adding the control to the form (or any container on the form) restricts drawing the control to the region defined by the container. I tried increasing the region of the form and the container, but it still didn't draw outside the container.
So my question is: Is there a way to make the control display partially inside the container/form and partially outside it, or is there a better object type that will do what I want?

Having some issues with creating a simple control in vb.net.
I create a control with a single label in, I don't change anything except the colour of the control and the label and also making the label anchor to the edges ( with a small border around the edge)
When i then build it and add this control to a form. Some of the edges are cut off and it isn't anchored the way it was in the control.[url]...
as you can see in the second image the control has lost its white border at the right and bottom.

Is it possible to copy a control that is on the form but also runs off th the form because it is bigger than the form and screen? If I have the height and width of an area I want to copy that runs off the form, any way to grab it? The form will not be minimized and will be the focused program. When i click a button I want to do this. Either copy to clipboard or even just save as an image. I can even have the handle to the control if that is needed.

On Form1 we have: TextBox1 TreeView1 - holds list of customers, is located near the bottom of the form, not visible from the start. Now, when I start typing text in TextBox1 (i need to filter customers), TreeView1 appears and suggest for example 30 customers matching the searched text. I want the program to show the treeview and draw it also outside of the Form1 boundaries.

I need to get the DataGridView to perform the way it should perform. I'm new to the .NET environment, but I learn fairly quickly. However, I find it difficult to decipher themassive black box of the DataGridView control enough to make it do anything other than what it already does--Draw very slowly.

I would like my 'quit' button to appear in the bottom right hand corner of my menu screen, but it seems that every computer in the office has a different sized screen, different size ration (some are widescreen) and different resolution. When I deploy my program, the quit button may appear off-screen (the user has to scroll down to find it) or it may appear half way across the screen on a widescreen laptop for example. If I set my form to 'maximized', is there a way to position a button relative to the bottom right hand corner of the form? Also, on one maximized form I have two datagridview's side by side. Is there are way to automatically set each one to take up half of the available form width, so they fill the form nicely?

I've got a borderless form that I'm handling the MouseDown, MouseMove & MouseUp events to do the dragging and re-sizing which I have working just fine but I started thinking how neat it would be if I could have the borderless windows snap to each other and to the edges of the screen(s), this part I'm stuck on. I've got them snapping together just but and I've got it snapping to the edge of the screen but I have a dual monitor set up at home and I can't move it to my right side secondary screen with the code I have now. I'm attaching a sample VS2010 project with only the relevant code for this.Eventually I might add in the snapping to the desktop edge or to another note window's edge when resizing too, but that's not my focus right now.

I am currently investigating vb gaming and have set up a test project to move an object; it moves fine. The problem is that when it reaches the edge of the form it continues to move and eventually leaves the form entirely. So my question is how do i work out if my object has touched the edge of the form?

I have some experience of using paypal with an asp.net website, however this issue has me really stumped.Root of the problem: You cant embed the html form for the paypal button inside your page form.
Original solution: Originally my website was using multiple aspx pages so I could simply arrange my form tags so that they weren't embedded inside one another. My website now uses a master aspx page which draws in different ascx controls. This means that I do not have the option of arranging the form tags around the page so need a work around.
NB. I have looked all over the place for simple solutions but it is a jungle out there, paypal is a nightmare. I did find something on ghost form which is all in c#.

I have a VB app which draws primitive shapes (lines, filled rectangles etc.) into a picturebox control (from its paint event). I've since found out that a picturebox is probably the worst control to use for this. I've also found out that it's better to draw directly onto the form but I don't really want to do this as a control gives clipping for 'free'.
What would be the best control for this? The panel control looks like a good candidate but the experiment I tried actually performed worse

I have a borderless form that I'm "docking" onto the top edge of my screen. Inside of the form, I'm placing a single toolstrip control, which docks across the entire form -> (picture the taskbar to get an idea of what I'm talking about).Because the borderless form has no edge to it, I wanted to draw a black line along the bottom edg` of the form to differentiate the form from the windows or desktop behind it.
The problem that I'm facing is that`the toolstrip will not move "behind" the line when it's docked, no matter how I order the control layers.
I've tried programatically sending the control to back to no avail either.
Any ideas on how to get the line to show above the docked toolstrip?

I have made a custom control and the only change to the interface is that its a different color. Whenever the user moves their mouse over the control some white text fades in in the middle of the user control. Then after a few seconds the text fades out. The text is actually the location of the cursor but I have that figured out.

Im looking for an image viewer that supports most types of image formats, including PDFs, and has the ability to rotate/zoom, and draw on an image. I've been looking but to no avail. Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way of going about modifying a control so that I would have these features? The main problem that I am running into is the lack of the ability to draw on an image. Im still sort of a newbie to .NET,

I'm looking to draw a trackbar normal, only with a transparent background. I have created a new class that supports transparent backgrounds set to true. Without using userpaint, the trackbar does nothing or takes the color of it's parent. When using userpaint I have to draw the control on mine own. Not quite sure where to start first though...
I've read about drawing a line (not so hard), drawing a floating object (to act as marker), and handling events on when the floating object moves left/right... Drawing 3 separate objects inside an inherited trackbar control seems like a clunky way of calling methods that should exist somewhere? Is there an easier way to draw the control normal without a background? If not, some in starting to implement all 3 new objects working together would be good (I could draw them separately but that's about it).

I'm trying to draw a 400x400 px image to a 400x400 form that I made. What I'm doing is:
Graphics.DrawImage Method (Image, 0, 0, 400, 400) 0, 0, 400, 400, ...
But when I run the form, the image seems to stretch slightly upon the y-axis, the x-axis seems to be working correctly.
This was what I was doing before (stretching the old smaller images to fit the size)
... (Image, 0, 0, 264, 231) 0, 0, 400, 400, ...
or something like that. Now that I'm trying to do it the correct way, I can't seem to get it to work properly.
Edit: I wonder if using a simpler verson of Graphics.DrawImage would work?
