Drawing Dotted Path Lines With Evenly Spaced Dots?

Apr 22, 2012

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.

Interface And Graphics :: Drawing Dotted Path Lines, With Even Dots Along The Path Line?

Apr 13, 2012

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.

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. point me in the direction I need to go that allows me to draw the dots and give the impression that they are even all along the path, for all shapes and sizes.

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

VS 2008 Drawing Dots/polygons On Mousdown Or Click Event In A Picturebox?

May 1, 2010

I have a problem. Im trying to create a form that enables a user to add dots on a mouse click event over an office floor plan. I have searched the web and this site but still am struggerling. My aim is to be able to draw dots (purpose is to highlight problems) and polygons over the plan (purpose to define which service area the floor area relates). I want to save all graphics to an access database with associated
fields.

My thinking is to place a second picture box over the first and make this transparent and use this as the user interface? I dont expect anyone to solve this for me, however, any help with how to draw dots and polygons through mouse down or mouse click would be most helpful.

Drawing Multiple Lines On A Canvas?

Jun 29, 2012

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.

Drawing Lines From A Point List?

Sep 24, 2010

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.

Drawing Cursor Tracking Cross Lines

Apr 8, 2010

[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?

Drawing Parallel And Perpendicular Lines At A Distance From A Point?

Jul 11, 2011

Step 1 - I plot 4 random points on an image in the picture box

Step 2 - I capture the co - ordinates for all the points

Step 3 - I draw a line from point 1 to point 2 (name it line 1)

Queries :

1) I need to draw a line parallel to line 1 passing through point 3

2) I need to draw a line parallel to line 1 passing through point 4

3) Extend the line from both the ends so that I can draw a perpendicular line passing through all the 3 lines so that it becomes a rectangle

[2008] Finding Distance Between Unevenly Spaced Units?

Jan 23, 2009

I'm trying to write a little program to help me find the distance (in feet/inches) between the frames of a ship. This would be fairly easy, except the frames are unevenly spaced.Let's say this is a top view of a shape, and the frames are vertical lines that comprise the overall ship. (In ships, this is the shape of the hull.) Each number is a frame.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

In this example, there are 1 units between frames 1-3, two units between frames 3-6, three units between 6-9, four units between 9-11, and 1 unit between 11-13.So, what I want to do is post a program where the user inputs two frame numbers: so they would enter, for instance, a start location of 5 and an end location of 11. So, it would calculate the number of units between those two frames based on the limits. So, between 3-6 there are two units, so it would subtract the start location from the nearest limit (6).

6-5 = 1

Multiply by 2 units spacing per frame, so that's 2 units. Frames 6-9 are all included, so 9-6=3 x 3 units = 9 units. Since 9-11 are also all included, it would be 11 - 9 = 2 x 4 units = 8 units. Then the program would add that all together - 2 + 9 + 8 = 19 units total.

Now, for my instance, there are a few more complications (it's in inches, and large increments (i.e. 36" spacing), and there are 304 total frames split between the middle of the ship in two sections, fore and aft of the line), but really I'm just trying to get a handle on how to impose these limits and calculate the distance. Attached is the proposed layout for my program (ignore the 20'5", that's just how I want the output to look).

Check If A Number Is Evenly Divisible By Another?

Jan 20, 2012

I was wondering what the fastest way is to check for divisibility in VB.NET.I tried the following two functions, but I feel as if there are more efficient techniques.

Function isDivisible(x As Integer, d As Integer) As Boolean
Return Math.floor(x / d) = x / d
End Function

Another one I came up with:

Function isDivisible(x As Integer, d As Integer) As Boolean
Dim v = x / d
Dim w As Integer = v
Return v = w
End Function

Determining If Numbers Are Evenly Divisible

May 30, 2012

In my order program, I need to determine if the quantity ordered is full boxes.For example - all of our parts/products have different box quantities, and when a customer orders a certain quantity, I want it to do nothing when I type in the quantity IF the order quantity is even boxes, If it is not even boxes, I want a pop up form with three radio buttons to come up. The three radio buttons will have the next higher even box quantity, the next lower box quantity, and to keep the current quantity and apply a broken box charge. I have this pop-up form done except for determining if the order quantity is an even number of boxes, and then determining the next higher and next lower.

Just to clarify - let's say a customer orders a part that has 60 pieces per box. If he orders 180 pieces, nothing happens and you can continue to put the order on. If he orders 200 pieces, a pop-up form with 3 selections - "keep current quantity and apply broken box charge", or "Change Quantity to 240", or "Change Quantity to 180" comes up.

VS 2010 - Application - Datagridview And Textboxes - Add (on The Dotted Line) An Performclick Action

May 28, 2011

I am building an application where on a form is a datagridview and textboxes. The dgv and tb are bound to the same table. I am using the dgv to have an overview of the records and the tb I use for editing. Selecting a record programmatically in the dgv is no problem, but the textboxes have to be filled with the same record. Here I have added my code to this far.

If OuderID <> 0 Then
'select the row
For i As Integer = 0 To dgvOuders.RowCount - 1
If dgvOuders.Rows(i).Cells(0).Value = OuderID Then

C# - How Expensive Are Dots In .NET

Aug 27, 2009

In the past, in C and C++ land, nested pointer dereferencing was considered, by some, to be a relatively expensive operation if executed in a tight loop.You wouldn't want to get caught with:

for (int i = 0; i < 10000000; i++)
{
j->k->l->m->n->o->p->dosomeworknowthatwereherewhynoteh();
}

because you might lose precious milliseconds. (Yes, I'm being somewhat sarcastic!)
