Flickering - Double Buffered Picturebox - Not Double Buffere - Black Screen With The White Lines
Nov 17, 2010
I have a htpc project that I am working on. The main program loads dll plugins which are basically other win forms. On each of these forms, including the main program, I use a picturebox (a double buffered picturebox) for the background image and then draw everything on it by hand. Whenever I load the form from the dll and show it, I get a weird flicker. It looks like it is the previously used double buffer. Is there any way to clear the background double buffer before the flicker? Or am I going in the wrong direction?
Here's a couple of videos of the problem:

Notice the black screen with the white lines on it or the flash of the desktop after I click "Movies." How do I get rid of that?

I was wondering if it someone could help me solve this problem. I have a full screen application with a panel in the center which is used to display different user controls and screens when the user uses the app.However, I have a rather large gradient image set as my form's background and it causes the panel to flicker every time controls are added. I find that when the background image is removed the flicker goes away. How can I keep the background image but eliminate the flicker? My form is already double buffered.

Is there a way to convert an Image to Black and white before displaying it in a PictureBox? Or is there a way to make a PictureBox display color images in black and white?

I am having a similar issue with the double buffered set to true for a picturebox. I customized a picturebox control in vb.net where, a panel contains the picturebox.
Upon a mousedoubleclick of the picturebox, i scale the picturebox width wise a certain scalefactor, so that the picturebox is greater than the size of the panel. I am doing this for horizontal zooming and panning. With that said, the picturebox could become large in size.
At certain screensizes, after scaling the picturebox 6 times the size of panel, at fullscreen, i receive an error messsage implying "Not enough memory available to process the command."
However, when i turn off double buffered, i dont get the error, but i get much unwanted flickering.
Here is my code in the Paint Event:
Private Sub picPMGraph_Paint(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) Handles picPMGraph.Paint
Dim i As Integer

I have a situation where I am handling both single & double mouse click events on a form. In both cases something has to be loaded, however when a double click occurs, I do not wish to execute the code attached to the single click event.Is there a way to intercept the mouse click's and check if double or single and then execute the right event appropriately?

For greater accuracy I should use a Decimal instead of a Double ( so I've been told ). Why then have Microsoft chosen to use DOUBLE for most of the functions that return a floating point value in the Math Class?

When i use VB6 i get the following outputs
961.605 * 100 = 96161
936.495 * 100 = 93650
929.295 * 100 = 92929
NOW..... When i do the above in vb.net 2005 i get the following
961.605 * 100 = 96160
936.495 * 100 = 93650
929.295 * 100 = 92930
How can i get the same output as the VB results. And i have tired it ! Type conversions, math functions, everything i can think of to get the same VB6 output !

Whenever I store values to a double-type variable, and ask to display it on the screen, there seems to always be a discrepancy, for example, I entered 7.416 to a textbox and assigned it to a double. When i ask for it to be displayed, it used to be that the 7.416 is returned to me. But just a few days ago, when I debugged my program again, it returns numbers like 7.4159987.......[code]....

I've asked this question before, and so have many before me, i have done extensive research on the topic and stil no help. Maybe this is some kind of secret info. shared only amongst top programmers. Bt how do you really, trully double buffer a form, aside from setting "Double Bufferd" to true, which doesn't work in most cases, I want to know how do companies lyk Microsoft and Symantec, prevent flashes on big applications such Word and Norton.

If I try to display a command line argument that has double quotes around, the double quotes are always stripped off. How can I avoid this?
for example, the argument is "c:xx.txt" and this displays c:xx.txt instead Console.WriteLine((My.Application.CommandLineArgs(4)))

I have successfully managed to add a handler for doubleclick and click events the problem i have is that when i add both together it only seems to work with the click event and not the double click. where I could bee going wrong? Iam using VS2008 .NET 3.5 my code looks a bit like this :
Public Class Class1

In XP when you go to shut down, windows fades to black and white. I think that's a nice effect.How would i go about fading a color image (image box stretched - like a screen saver) to black and white...?
Has this ever been done? Is their a code snippet that already exsists?

I been playing around with some code I found on internet and I am probably almost where I need to be. Using the printdocument I am able to get the active form in my project to print. That works fine. MY nextr issue was to get the form to print so that it is Black & white. No shading etc.. So I found a routine on internet that will take image and turn to B&W. Problem: IF a text box fields background color is too dark then the entire box shows up in black. If a text box field data is Selected it also is too dark and comes out white.her is code I found for turnign to B&W
Public Function PureBW(ByVal image As System.Drawing.Bitmap, Optional ByVal Mode As BWMode = BWMode.By_Lightness, Optional ByVal tolerance As Single = 0) As System.Drawing.Bitmap
Dim x As Integer

He wanted to know how they can do to convert a portion of the form that you see only blue or black and white. I mean, the user presses a button and all that is in the form sees only blue or black and white only.

I am using the cursor converter to set both
dim cCon as cursorconverter = new cursorconverter
me.cursor = cursorconverter.ConvertFrom(myCursor.cur)
and
windows.forms.cursor.current = cursorconverter.ConvertFrom(myCursor.cur)
the reason for setting both is that otherwise the cursor will not always have the desired appearance. I know that cursors can be rendered in color, like 3D-Bronze, windows animated, hands and variations.

I've been just making random programs trying to get the hang of the new language this time I was making a leap frog game where it switches back and forth beetween frogs every time a button is pressed. It also checks if the frog can land in the text box above the button pressed, if there is another frog there a message box will pop up saying sorry space is filled other wise the frog should land there.
[code]...
The error message says "Conversion from string "frog1" to type 'Double' is not valid." I understand what a double is but I've tried And If and that causes a bunch of errors.My Question is whats wrong with this cod and how can I make a double if statement???PS I did try to make an array to shorten this but thats in a different fourm will post URL later
