Fitting A Form To Cover The Entire Screen
Sep 11, 2011
I have a program and wish to generalise its appearance at startup on different machines. This worked OK until I moved it onto a Windows 7 unit with a 22" screen. The front page covers less than 2/3 of the screen. I know I've asked the system for 'working area' but could not find a reference to the entire screen which other applications seem able to use. How can I catch up with them? The code is from VB in VS2005. Is this my limitation?

I'm using a TabControl and have overridden the DrawItem event to produce my own background and foreground colors for the header text. It looks good but there's still grey color around each header. I thought maybe the Padding property could be set to (0,0) but that seemed to have no effect.

I have a user who wants to print the form that is on the screen(the entire form not just the data) on the click of a button, is there a quick and easy way to capture it and print it. Kind of like a screen shot? I suggested that they could just do alt/printscreen and capture the form that way and print it but they want it all to be done from a print button for them.

how I would be able to print the entire portion of the screen which the form occupies,Basically, my problem lies in that the way I print now will properly print the form's buttons/labels/textboxes etc. But it will not print the WebComponent AxChartspace that I have added to it. So basically my form is partially blank.

Currently I have the following VB.NET code to make a screenshot of my desktop, but it only takes a picture of the active screen:
Public Function SaveScreen(ByVal theFile As String) As Boolean
Try
SendKeys.Send("%{PRTSC}")[code].....
The following code is how I execute the above function, if it makes any difference, which I don't think it does:
SaveScreen("C:Lexer_tracescreen.png")
Now, I need to be able to take a picture of the entire screen, not just the focused window.

I'm using the code below to get a screenshot of the entire screen.
VB.NET
Dim b As New Bitmap(Me.Width, _
Me.Height, _
[Code]....
But I need to edit it so that it only takes the a screenshot of my form. I'm not sure how to pass the absolute coordinates of my form's top most left corner and it's bottom most right corner.

I have resized the form by using the following code. what i want to do is that i want to fit the entire screen horizontally...so that the horizontal scroll bar doesent appear.....
Private Sub Resize_Form()
Dim cControl As Control
Dim i_i As Integer[code]..........
Which value do i change in the code that the screen squeezes horizontally ...? There are only two controls on the right side when we scroll....i think if the resolution is done correctly then it will fit in the screen.....but i dont know what chages should be made in the code.

I have another question (and anticipate that I will have about two more before I'm done with my class project). Here is my issue (and I'll copy and paste my code for clarification). I need to link up the control from the form on either side of the current form that I'm working on so that if I click on the buttons that I'm titling previous and next that I can click on the proper button and either go directly to the previous form or the next form. I was successful in doing this for two earlier forms on this project (with some direction from a couple of helpful people on this forum before), but for some reason, no matter what I details I use the controls do not connect to the previous and next forms.
Option Explicit On
Option Strict On
Option Infer Off

I am trying to auto fit columns in excel using
Dim objxlrange As Excel.Range
objxlrange.Columns.AutoFit()
I am currently getting this error "object reference not set to an instance of an object" Using the keyword NEW does not work to fix this problem. Is there another way to AutoFit Cells in excel? I will continue to look for the answer and I will post it here if I find it.

I'm working in .net 2005. I have a collection of points and I'm creating a polyline with them; however, I need to curve fit them so that they appear to be some what straighter.
If you look at my picture, you can see the blue dots represent the points and the red line is a represenation of how I'd like the final results to be. (Basically, I need to line to appear straighter and less jaggedy looking than it is now).
I didn't know if I should try to see if there's some plug-in for doing this or if vb.net has anything I could use to do this myself.

I need to disable every control on my Form so that the user can not click or press any key that will change values of listboxes and other controls on the form. I need to be able to lock the whole Form like this because as part of the project I have to print the form 3times with 3 different colors and the only way I've been able to get it to work is with a timer. So for about 3 seconds the form is changing colors and printing itself, so in between that time the user could accidantely click something and change a value on the form when all three prints should be of the same form, only difference is in the color.I can't use disable as that will make all the controls look faded and messed up, I need a clean way to prevent anything from being changed.

I'm trying to make my form nearly transparent when the mouse is not inside the form by changing the opacity.I'm having trouble because if the mouse is moved quickly, I can't get its position accurately. when the mouse is moved into a control, it's considered to have left the form. Is there an easy way to do this that I might be missing?

My form contains lots and lots regular expression and other things in one button. whch when pressed takes some time to process.. so the form kind of gets stucked while the processing is bieng done.is there any coding for which it diables the entire form until the process is completed? like disabling the entire form and showing a text "please wait ... processing data" so user can not use other buttons or features at the same time or it might get crashed.

I cant not get my faxdoc to send a cover page? I can not figure this out. Please help!!!
I have tried.FaxDocumentObj.CoverPageType = FAX_COVERPAGE_TYPE_ENUM.fcptSERVER
FaxDocumentObj.CoverPage ="C:Documents and SettingsabbyDesktopFax Coversgeneric.cov"
and this FaxDocumentObj.CoverPageType = FAX_COVERPAGE_TYPE_ENUM.fcptLocal
FaxDocumentObj.CoverPage =
"C:Documents and SettingsabbyDesktopFax Coversgeneric.cov"
Is there a way of setting the local path if I use Type Local? Can a cover page be something other than .cov? I was hoping to use .rtf. The only thing that will allow me to send is None and I don't get a fax cover page..

This is a problem like the puzzle - "find minimum number of coins to completely cover a piece of paper".
The difference is:
in my case RADIUS of the coins is variable (but all coins should have same radius).
Real scenario:
1. I need to draw circular shapes on a rectangular image.
2. Number of circles (N) is CONSTANT/ User input
3. Size of image (S) is CONSTANT/ User input
4. The program should find the MINIMUM RADIUS (R) that is needed to draw N number of circles on an image of size S, so that, the image is completely hidden behind the circles.
This is NOT a puzzle/assignment that I'm trying to solve.This is part of a larger project that I'm working on.
I don't need any drawing code. I just need the code/algo to find the radius.

I'm trying to make a carpet calculator that will do the following:
1) How many metres of carpet are needed to cover a room.
2) How many rolls of carpet that will be.
3) How much full-width carpet will be left on the last roll.
The carpet is supplied in rolls that are 5 meters wide and 30 metres long. Any excess width is discarded. This means that rooms that are wider than 5 meters need several strips of carpet. The smallest space that will be carpeted is 1m x1m, the biggest is 20m x 20m. I only need whole meter lengths, so example if only 1.6meters of carpet were used to cover a room it would be rounded to 2 meters.
Here's the code that's giving me incorrect calculations. The number of rolls required to carpet the room seems to be the biggest miscalculation.
Private Sub btnCalculate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCalculate.Click
Dim width, length As Single 'Defines variables.
If IsValidInput(txtWidth.Text) Then
width = txtWidth.Text
[Code] .....
