[code] With these 3 subs (above) I can track the cursor movement with my window & can draw a horizontal & vertical lines from the location of the cursor. No problems there. Problem is I only want one set of lines ( thus mimiking extended cross hairs) & what I get is persistance. Previous line drawings, cannot be erased out & hence I get a colouring/paint effect in the rectangle. Great if you want that, but I do not want that. How can I negate that effect & draw only 2 lines which follow the cursor location?
I am trying to use a cross cursor and make it the width and height of the form without any luck. I read in a thread i may have to use a custom cursor, is this true? I have tried to re size the Cursors.Cross
I am trying to draw an extended crosshair cursor, as used on financial charts.ie; the cusor is the centre of two intersecting lines that extend to the boundaries of the graph control (zedgraph).
In the past I used the .FromFile to load images into pictureboxes but, because was impossible to delete, I followed the stream method to load images. Now happens that this code, that worked fine with the first method doesnt work with the second.I think that some conversion in the sender is wrong but Im not able to find it.[code]...
I am using VS 2008 Pro and my ? is, I am trying to add lines to a listbox and keep getting Cross-Thread Operation not Valid exception. The code I am using was downloaded from codeproject. When I run this app, it works fine. I added it to my app and this is where the cross-threading problem occurs.[code]I am trying to convert mp3 files to .wav files. With the line above it works. With it out, the exception is thrown.
I recently made some changes to my VB 2008 application, and now there are crosshatched lines throughout parts of my tab-control at design time. When executing the application everything looks fine, and there are no errors generated. Why has this happened?
I am using Cursor.Draw to draw the default cursor on an image however this does not draw the alpha levels - they just draw the alpha pixels with a black backing how can i draw a cursor to an image and KEEP THE ALPHA channel?
I am writing a little 'macro' functionality into my multi-line textbox. All going ok except i don't know how to move the cursor up or down lines (simulating the arrow keys), and the 'Home' and 'End' keys.
I would like to avoid the whole 'SendKeys' thing if possible...
So I built myself a simple program to work out the kinks of drawing in my programs. I have a button that I press that when the textbox.text reads 1 it then draws a line of a specific height, color and position, the problem is when I click that button again it will crash informing me that... "Specified Visual is already a child of another Visual or the root of a CompositionTarget." [code..]
I know where the problem lies, its with the Canvas1.children.add(line), cause its telling me the line variable is already been used or in use on the canvas, I'm just unsure of how to turn that into a solution that will allow me to click the button a hundred times or more without being forced to MANUALLY make a hundred or more individual variables to store the line.
Ok so im looking at this code and it cant possibly be right but im not sure how to do what i want.I have made a list of n points. I now want to click a button on my form and use the picturebox paint event to draw my lines between the points in the list.From what i can see i have at least two issues with this code. 1. Nowhere in this snippet do i reference the picture boxes paint event 2. I do not think that the loop i have is how to navigate through the list of Points to make my drawings.
How do I draw straight lines? I'm working on a tic-tac-toe game and I have no previous experience with graphics in VB 2005. The MSDN doesn't exactly do a good job of explaining it. In QBasic it was very simple, you just did:
I have a problem drawing dotted path lines, with evenly spaced dots: I want to be able to draw evenly spaced dots along a path line using points in an array, My issue is not with drawing the path line, with dotted lines, this is easy, but with the spacing of the dots at the start and end of the path line.
In the example I have created, I create a square with 4 points and draw a dotted path.The path starts at the top left corner and finishes back at the top left corner, the dots are evenly placed along the path, except the final dots at the end of the path. (Sometimes the dots are even and other times they are not even).The shapes I want to draw can be any size and any shape, but I have used a square in this example to show the problem I have.I have also attached two pictures showing the dotted path line, 1 with even spaced dots at the start / End and another showing the problem I want to resolve, with not evenly spaced dots at the start / end.The only difference between the two is the point values.
I like to have a code which switches cursor to 2 lines by clicking a button (or with checkbox). Both lines starts from the edge of window and at the intersection is the cursor's position.
I'm doing a web application in which the user must make a series of figures such as rectangles, text boxes and lines, Is something like like google docs draw
Problem drawing dotted path lines, with even dots along the path line.I want to draw a path line that can be any shape (square, round, outline etc), and along this path line I want even dots to appear.
I also want to be able to resize the shape (as in the example attached)This is very easy to do using "DrawPath" and defining points for the path and using a pen defined as dots.The problem I have is I want the dots to be evenly placed along the path, on any shape or size I draw.In the example I have created, I create a square with 4 points and draw a dotted path.There are 2 buttons that allows me to resize the square (larger or smaller) this helps show the problem more clearly.

In the pictures below if you change the size of the shape, one will have even looking dots, the other will not.

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 Imports System.Drawing
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
draw individual pixels, without resorting to drawing a line and setting it's length to 1. Is there an actual ability to draw a pixel that is just 1 pixel big?
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 need some code to draw a resizable, draggable rectangular cursor (or selection box) on a picturebox. I found some excellent code (albeit rather old) that does just that, but on a form rather than a picturebox. I have tried converting the code - basically moving things to the picturebox events (Paint, MouseDown, MouseMove etc). It nearly works but leaves a trail behind it when you move or resize the cursor. In other words, the selection rectangle is not being erased before being drawn in the new position.
Is there some fundamental difference between drawing graphics on a form and drawing on a picturebox that would cause this behaviour? Something like, when you invalidate a form and cause a redraw it erases what you did last? If not, then I just need to dig a bit further and work out how the cursor is being erased from the previous position.
Here's the original code that works fine on a form:
Private DragRect As New RectangleF(20, 20, 100, 80) Private Adornments(7) As RectangleF Private MouseInRect As Boolean = False
Say I have 3 Buttons, labelled: Unit 1, Unit 2 and Unit 3. When I click on any button I want a drawing of that unit to appear on screen at a pre-specified starting point. Thereafter when I press any other one of the buttons the unit drawings appear alongside each other in a line. So I could end up with:
Dim oURL As Uri = New Uri(e.Uri.AbsoluteUri) Dim favicon As Image If oURL.HostNameType = UriHostNameType.Dns Then
[code]....
The error is Value of type System.Drawing.Image cannot be converted to System.Drawing.Icon Is it even possible to make the favicon be the icon of the form?
