I've been rattling my mind trying to find an answer to this all morning but finally decided to ask here. So, here's the problem, I'm trying to make a DLL which allows the user to fade in/out any form they want. Here's my current (Broken) code.[code]The error message i get is " 'Refresh' is not a member of 'ClassLibrary1.Fader' " and " 'Opacity' is not a member of 'ClassLibrary1.Fader' "
OK, if any of you use Facebook, you'll know what I mean, you click Share after you type in what you want, and it pushes everything else down, fades in, and slides. I need that to happen, and I need it to happen with labels because I can get the code for a textbox to work, but without the awesome effect.
I'm working on a windows toolbar that I'd like to fade when the cursor is pulled away. I'm not quite sure if there is an event to check for Mouse Movement OVER the title bar though?! (my code below fades the form when I put the cursor over the forms title bar).
I am doing project in vb.net.When i click on button open I opened form with no control box(minimize,maximize etc).set borderStyle to FixedToolWindow.I want to change the opacity of form on got focus & lost focus event..I also used activated & deactivated event but doesnt working[code]...
i like the way the form fading works by changing the form's opacity.this is for a sample app. with just a button and a checkbox..
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim iCount As Integer[code].....
this works fine for a simple form. when i add the code to a busy form with many controls (buttons, pictureboxes, panels, etc.) the form glitches, not but much, just enough to keep me away from using the code for fading..
i have changed some of the properties of the form & it's controls but while runtime same is taking effect !
i am changing the form's default location....... "" ....... "".. controls ( Datagridview controls) some column properties but nothing is taking in to effect, but in design time every thing is normal
NOTE:- no code is acting upon this controls IN FORM load or any other event, so i can't suspect that thing

Running a graphics effect in the Paint event of a Form. I am thinking of something like a screensaver effect, not necessarily full-screen either. Would a background worker be better suited to this idea or using another thread? I wouldn't want something that is very demanding on a computer processor. In fact, what I was originally thinking, is it possible to put a Windows screensaver program inside a Form? Installing VB6 on Windows 7
I'm trying to create a shaped form with an attractive shadow effect by painting progressive alpha blended layers underneath the main visible form area (a background mask color has also been set to allow a shaped form). This is going well, but I have one major problem to resolve - the bottom shadow layer does not appear as the correct transparent shade - it always appears solidly as the background color / transparent mask color for the form.
Why does this bottom shadow layer not show up as transparent, and why is this color being shown when it is set as the transparency key for the form (and so should be invisible anyway)???[URL]..
I was able to search this code : [URL] but i need a help in modifying this code so that i can re-size the form from bottom left corner the code block below is resizing the from from bottom right corner i need that to be modified to convert it to bottom left corner
I've got a VB.NET form that's got a ListView control, Tab Control and custom control. Ideally want the ListView and Tab controls to be faded while the user is entering data in the custom control. It seems these sorts of control don't have any opacity settings. Is there any way to set the opacity?
A while ago I wrote something that was incredibly simple, however it was 3 years ago and I can't for the life of me find where I saved it(upgraded computers twice since then and a few things managed to disapear in the process) I tried for the last few days trying to figure out how I did it and realized that someone may be able to see what I cannot.
I found information about how to fade images on the net. But it is extremely slow. Here is the code:A is an ImageAttributes variable. matrixEl is the float value that is incremented to fade in the image.
Anyone got any ideas on how i would go about fading in/out a textbox? Because only forms have opacity properties i was thinking of something like setting the background color to transparent and setting the forecolor of the text to the same as the background color. Then using a timer i could slowly change it to black, etc.
I'm studying Visual Basic (using Visual Studio 2008) as part of an all-round IT foundation degree...I must confess that programming is becoming my weak spot! Unlike the C++ I was taught last year, I'm not finding VB too easy...probably becasue I've never programmed this way before and I've missed a couple of lessons.
When creating a right click (ContextMenuStrip) menu for a systray (NotifyIcon) icon, how do I give it the same style as most other context menus? Most other menus have a nice fade inout when right clicking on the system tray Icon. In addition they respond immediately when moving between nested levels. I cannot replicate this in Visual Studio 2008 using a simple form, NotifyIcon and ContextMenuStrip assigned. The menu appears harshly with no fade effect regardless of any property.
I'm making a fading splash screen for a software but I can't seem to make the splash screen fade in and then fade out. It only fades in, fades out a bit then stop.
Here's my code. Private Sub frmSplashScreen_Load(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load Opacity = 0.0 SplashScreenTimer.Start() End Sub [Code] .....
I am a VB hobbyist and a new one at that. I am trying to create a transition effect in VB.NET 2008 when a certain form closes. The transition will take the form's current BackColor and slowly drop all the RGB values in it to 0 via a loop, obtaining a Fade to Black transition. I was able to come up with the code below. It works great. Maybe too great. It goes so fast that there is no transition. To the human eye it looks like the screen just went black instantly. Is there an easy way to enable a delay or pause in the below code to slow the loop down so that the end user sees the transition, and not just a quick jump to black?
When shutting down a Windows XP system, it displays a modal dialog box while the background fades to a grayscale. I will like to achieve the same effect in any of the programming languages in the tag list.
