Example Of Continuously Scrolling Form?
Jan 16, 2010
I'm looking for an example in VB.NET of a continuously scrolling form. This would be similar to a continuous form in Access but with a major difference in that when you scroll it the whole thing moves up or down instead of the data jumping up or down to the next section. If you are not familiar with Acces, this would be a form that lists data down the form in sections, one per record, in other words, like a bunch of forms strung one after the other. When you scroll down, the record at the top gradually disappears and is replaced with a new one at the bottom.
This needs to be a form with controls, not a datagridview.Right now, I'm trying to find an example of this. I tried searching for one and couldn't find one. Does anyone know of an example of a continuoulsy scrolling multi-record form where the whole form moves in VB.NET?

I am doing some graphics work like Paint event, but I found a problem that the form will flash again and again whenever I call the method IRefresh() or Invalidate(). What can I do if I want to update a graph continuously but not causing the form to flash?

I have read that VB .NET in earlier versions limited the FORM size to that of the development machine screen resolution.I am hoping that there is a way in the current VB 2010 to get around that.However in my attempts to make the form larger, it always resets itself to the screen height on my develoment machine.Is there a way to get around this and have the person be able to use a scroll bar to move down?The data I wish to show actually has two screens worth of information but the stuff in the scroll down section would be used on a limitied basis so scrolling will be useful rather than having to recreat the screen to show less data at one time.

After scouring the articles online I have come up with this design for a winforms based touchscreen app that needs smartphone like scrolling. The app itself will run on a tablet laptop or touchscreen desktop.I put everything I want to scroll on a panel. Set autoscroll to true (which will show scrollbars)Now put this whole panel inside a groupbox.Shrink the groupbox until the scrollbars are hidden (visually hidden, not visible = false)
Now the fun part I am stuck at.I think I have to handle the mousedown, mouseup & mousemove on the panel to set the autoscrollposition so that when someone touches the panel and drags, it does it's scroll magic. Please help fill in the few lines of code in below method stubs. The msdn doc on autoscrollposition is very confusing since it returns negative numbers but needs to be set to positive with abs and what not.
Point mouseDownPoint;
Point mouseUpPoint;
Point mouseDragPoint;[code]......

I am trying to scroll lines of text on a Form.
ie:
I add via (addString plus fill Path to give Outline Text) for say eight lines of text (which fill the screen with margins set at top and bottom) from a DatagridView control but there are say ten lines to that section, so I want to use the down arrow to scroll the lines up the screen, so the top two go off the top of the screen(hiden by margin boxes) and the last two added at the bottom. I have this all working but there is a lot of flickering, how can I do this more smoothly? I think it is the Form.refresh that causes the flickering, I have tried ResetText, Invalidate and Graphic.Clear, but none seem to make it smooth.
Sections of code:
'Adds line
For A = LineStart To LineSelEnd + 1
strItem = DataGridView1.Item(1, A - 1).Value
Dim useFont As Font = New Font(SongFont, CInt(SongSizeP), SongStyle)

I am making a video game in visual studio 2010 and want to know how to make side-scrolling. I have my background image on the form and since you can't see through a picture box, I can't do it that way. Is there a detailed way to doing this?

i am currently trying to improve my skills regarding simple graphics. currently i have a form with a background image. on top of that there is a movable image drawn during Form_Repaint. the image is a character that is animated. you click and the character moves to the new point. that all works great atm. i am even able to add new "AI Chars". they just randomly walk through the form and every time they stop, there is a 10% chance every 15s that they move somewhere else (random point). as is said, that works great. but now i am kinda stuck. since my "engine" (lets say so) is in isometric perspective, i need the ability to scroll.

I'm attempting to make a scrolling text label at the bottom of a form. It is the type of scroll you can see on the weather station when there is a tornado warning out. I was wondering if someone could help me go about doing it?
Basically, I am trying to have a label, which scrolls smoothly. The scroll text will be the contents of a string variable. I was also wondering if it would be possible to have the entire scroll "disappear" as the end of it scrolls onto the left side of the screen, then it pauses for a moment, and starts the scroll again, playing an alert tone each time.

I have two issues. The first is that I want to make a textbox scrolling similar to how credits scroll. I don't want it to move on the form, just to scrolling the text down a line/pixel. I thought I could do it with the "Lines" element, but I'm not exactly sure how to execute it.
The other problem is with my flash screen. Right now I have it set so when a button is click, it goes onto the main form. I don't want to use the button but rather have it so if Enter is pressed at any time, it'll go to the main form. All the solutions I've tried to use involve the "e.Keycode" code, but for some reason its unavailable.

I need to be able to display 60 * x. X is going to be the time between hitting a Stat button and a Stop button in seconds. I need this to be shown until it is stopped. So i was thinking something like txtBox1.text = 60*time, but I do not know if that is correct and I do not know how to get that time. Also I am not sure how to continuously update the text box.

Question. Why isn't OnMouseMove (at top below Constructor) being called with every movement of the mouse across the UserControl's grid?My intention is to have a reticle (crosshairs) replace (override) the existing mouse cursor and show a reticle with x and y coordinates?I have another form upon which a User Control with similar functionality is working perfectly.

I have a form with 2 TextBoxes that I want to be able to save to a text document like C:Data.txt. When I save to the text document I want it to continuously save. For example it when you open the text file it should look something like this:
TextBox1
TextBox2
------------
TextBox1
TextBox2
Is it possible to do something like that? A separator is not necessary, would be nice to distinguish different saves.
