OK, so I just started this VB programming class at school. But I don't understand much because the teacher doesn't really teach us. He just types everything on the projector and expects us to keep up. We have this project in which we are supposed to build a form that accepts the length and width of a rectangle, and calculates the area and perimeter of the rectangle. CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME?? I really have no clue how to do this, and more than half the other people in our class don't either, so finding help within the class is pretty much out of the question.
The user enters values for the length and width of a rectangle and clicks the Calculate button or presses the Enter key to activate that button. The application then displays the area and perimeter of the rectangle in the third and fourth labels on the right side of the form.
Specifications The formula for calculating the area is width * length. The formula for calculating the perimeter is 2 * width + 2 * length. The application should accept fractional decimal entries like 10.5 and 20.65. Assume that the user will enter valid numeric data for the length and width.
I'm writing a .NET program for an engineering company. Their specification is to find the number of holes (either of same or different radius) on a rectangular plate and then to find the area of the rectangle and also area of the circle inside that rectangle. It's not essential that the circle touches the rectangle.
Drawing text on a picbox I notice if the picbox has a border style set then the TextRenderer.DrawText rectangle area needs to be adjusted slightly otherwise text may be drawn very near the picbox borders and the text doesn't look as clean, but I'm not sure what those offsets should be, I hard coded them in, see code under "' area to draw". btw, the code draws the first word of text in bold and then the other words as regular. 'One button, One picture box needed.
I am using the following code to place a rectangle around a form / form control, however what I want to do is make my screen grey and only the form / form control area be displayed in colour.
Code:
I have googled for ages trying to find something on this, but with no luck.
To illistrate this better they are using the same functionality in snagit 10, please see below link to a page that has a video link showing this (23 sec into video)[url]
im BMP As New Drawing.Bitmap(1, 1) Dim GFX As System.Drawing.Graphics = System.Drawing.Graphics.FromImage(BMP) GFX.CopyFromScreen(New Drawing.Point(MousePosition.X, MousePosition.Y), _ New Drawing.Point(0, 0), BMP.Size) Dim Pixel As Drawing.Color = BMP.GetPixel(0, 0) Me.BackColor = Pixel
What I need assistance in is, I am going to create a form. and i wanted to know if there is a way. to Check (not using the mousex and mousey positions) for example. a Rectangle Sized Location to see if anywhere in the back red appears and if red does appear To give an error.
I'm working on a small project for the fun of it. One of my hobbies is astro-imaging and I take pictures of planets, nebulae gallaxies etc . One of the more challenging targets is the International Space Station. I have had some success with the ISS by manually aiming my telescope as the Station moves across the sky.
What I am trying to achieve is to write a program that will lock onto the brightest area of a webcam image. If the brightest area (which will be the ISS) is off center, then commands are sent to the telescope to recenter it.
So far I have been able to write code that talks with the scope, and I have been able to get a webcam stream to show on a Form.
So the last piece of the puzzle (well I am sure there will be other things that have to be worked out) is to identify the brightest area of the image. I am scratching my head as to how I should accomplish this.
I'm thinking I should dump pixel information into an array maybe, and establish which line and column has the brightest average values (I could then draw a cross hair over the image).
Given a rectangle of width w and height h. and a coordinate x,y in that rectangle I would like to identify which triangle I am within.
i.e. the function should take parameters(x,y) and return a,b,c,d or a zero based number representing that triangle index i.e. (0=A,1=B,2=C,3=D) if they are in that order.
I think this would be something like >= the formula of the red line and >= the formula of the green line?
Trying to set the viewable area to a smaller screen area and have it cycle through as the person moves using collision detection to move the backgroudn image. Here is the start but its off to a bad start so far.
Public Class Form1 Dim Mapx As Integer = 600 Dim Mapy As Integer = 2000
[code]....
Basically the forum size is set to 600x2000 but the client should only allow you to view 600x600. I want it to add +1 once you "collide with a invisable box I'll add and this will redraw the screen.
I designed a form and managed to fit graphics inside it. Picture box is 465 pixels high. Form1 is 500 pixels high. SnapShot of the screen verifies that the 500 pixel height is the overal height. It includes the upper Bar and lower frame. Is there an instruction to set the From's inner pixel size and not overal?
I'M creating a kind of photo viewer, and I cannot figure out how to orient the scroll buttons with the photos I want to draw because they all are different sizes.This is really hard to explain so please ask questions if you don't understand.I'M thinking if i could draw every photo on a single rectangle and then the scroll bars will position that rectangle up or down. but is there a way to make a rectangle inside another one so it only shows inside that rectangle?
I guess thats what I need to do, Im trying to allow the user to right click on the top of my form, and my custom Context Menu Strip is displayed, not windows context menu strip. I guess somehow i would need to get the size and draw a rectangle on the non client area and see if the user has right clicked in that rectangle? if so how would I get the area of the non client area?
myObject has a property called rect (which is a Rectangle). During runtime I will want to chage the X position of such rectangle, but I am given this error:
Expression is a value and therefore cannot be the target of an assignment.
It is my understanding and experience that VB.NET does not perform well with moving graphics from point A to point B in a form. How do I draw a rectangle or a line and move it from point A to point B? Is there a reliable way to do this without seeing a black rectangle around the moving object on every frame? I've tried this with bitmaps before but it doesn't work. I see the frame rendering and it's way to slow. Perhaps there is an animation Control or library?
i want to add a new floating rectangle with an image inside it to my form when i click on a button control and then use a timer control to move it in a straight line across the Form. the problems I'm having are:
1) Drawing and filling the RectangleF on the screen.
2) Animating/moving it from X1,Y1 to X2,Y2
3) Triggering the Drawing and movement with a Button Control
i want to change the cursor style i change from properties of form but there is only limited availability want to change it like square box or rectangular. i have image when i place the picture on picture box the cursor will change to box?
In java, if you've ever scripted java, there is a class called "Rectangle" in which will click in the specified Rectangle. Well in a WebBrowser, is it possible to click a certain Rectangle? (Only in the webbrowser), or a certain point
So navigate, wait for DocumentLoad, then click in rectangle?
I am attempting to draw and fill a rectangle using percentages passed through the text properties of 4 textboxes. I am attempting to do this in VB 2008. For example:
textbox1, 15%, green textbox2, 35%, blue textbox3, 40%, red textbox4, 10%, orange
I have a datagridview in my application. and I have created a function for searching different words in datagridview. When the functionfind the word in one cell of datagridview, the cell is selected, but I want to draw a red rectangle in the selected cell when I found the searched value.
I am trying to draw a rectangle in a PictureBox (100 x 50)
Using gr As System.Drawing.Graphics = Picbox.CreateGraphics Dim rect As New System.Drawing.Rectangle(10, 10, 80, 30) gr.DrawRectangle(Drawing.Pens.Blue, rect) End Using
From looking at the examples in my book, I "think" it should work, but alas, tis not working - nothing is drawn.
