I moved a project so I could work on it in two places. When I opened the project, I have only worked on it from one computer, my form did not show in the solution explorer so I moved it back. I opened the project and everything was there but I was not able to see my form layout in designer view. The code is there and it builds and looks right but I can't see any of my form components and I need to edit some properties.
I use MS visual studio 2010. I did open designer and view the form for the same file A before. But after some small changes, I can no longer view the form designer.vb, but can only view code in designer.vb. Even if I go back to the original source, I still can not open designer!!
The error is: The designer could not be shown for this file because none of the classes within it can be designed. The designer inspected the following clsses in the file A-The base class BaseClass could not be loaded. Ensure the assembly has been referenced and all that projects have been built.
if i click the designer tab i can only see a white form and the text say "Me.Database1DataSet.DataSetName = "Database1DataSet" and "The code within the method 'InitializeComponent' is generated by the designer and should not be manually modified. Please remove any changes and try opening the designer again"?
i have recently tried to copy my project between two acciunts, one which i access the project on a network drive and one which i will run programs from on the C:/ drive... when i tried to copy the project between accounts i began to receive the error message shown below
I am writing a windows forms application in visual studio 2010 (using VB). I want to change the control shown in a particular cell of a Table Layout Panel at runtime. Like this...
If radiobutton1.checked then tablelayoutpanel1's cell 1,1 shows panelOne else tablelayoutpanel1's cell 1,1 shows panelTwo
I've got several pretty massive dataset's with a lot of tables/relations in each.I've came in this morning and one of the datasets has sorted itself into a very readable Vertical form with all relations and tables displaying perfectly readable.Is there a command to "Arrange" the layout of the tables?
When I open VB projects in Visual Studio 2005 and attempt to view a form view designer I have started getting "File Download - Security Warning" Message prompting a .tmp file in the location of my project. If I close all open designers and rebuild the project I am then able to open the designers OK.I saw a suggestion to 'restore file associations' in Visual Studio and tried this but with no success.
I have use Devcomponent tool for design. Last night i have copied controls and have edited some changes. And now ANY TIME I debug my program show :
--------------------------- Microsoft Visual Studio --------------------------- The control DevComponents.DotNetBar.NavigationBar has thrown an unhandled exception in the designer and has been disabled.
Exception:
The file D:PROGRAMRESTAURANTHQ2HQQLBH1.0MainformTrangchu.vb cannot be modified in the designer while building or debugging.
Stack trace: at DevComponents.DotNetBar.NavigationBarContainer.RecalcSize() at DevComponents.DotNetBar.NavigationBar.RecalcSize() at DevComponents.DotNetBar.NavigationBar.OnHandleCreated(EventArgs e) --------------------------- OK ---------------------------
Have you met that error ?
I click OK and program still fine. But when i change the designer file then that msbox is shown.
I have 2 tables : product (as parent) and sales (as a child).
[Code]...
product_id at the product table is pK for product table. transaction_id at the sales table is pK for sales table . product_id at the sales table as fK, which a reference to the product_id of product table All my tables are stored in the dataset. How do I get the data from these datasets can I view on the DataGridView with a different layout formats, as follows.
I am using Visual Basic Express 2005. I am opening the startup form of my application in "Maximized" view. In the form designer, I am setting the anchor properties of the various controls that I have on the form so that they are located where I want them to be located when the Form loads.
I was wondering, if there was a way such that the form in my designer would be of the same size as the Maximized form? As of now I am dragging and resizing the edges of the Form in the Designer view to make it bigger..
I have a project where the user can view the print preview after finish using it. But after the 1st print preview is closed, when the 2nd time the user want to view the new print preview, the last is also shown. I don't want to have it closed everytime I want to print preview the new one. I've tried ".Refresh" but it doesn't work. This is my code.
I am attempting to update an existing winforms application, that was created with a dataset control on all the winforms pages. I have ported it from VS 2008 to VS 2010 and I need to update the database section and connect it to the SQL backend using traditional code method.In the Solution explorer, when I click on the Dataset files, and click "Exclude From project" I am unable to build the project.Is it advisable to comment out the code lines that refer to the dataset in the .designer.vb files?
I have developed a win form application using vb.net 2.0, mistakenly my vbproj file deleted. Now the issue is that when i open the solution in the design view all my forms ( 170 + ) shown blank. but when i run the application all the controls are properly displayed and application is running fine. Issue is why all forms are shown BLANK in design view , as i cant make any changes to the design now.
My self and most everyone else on our team is having the same issue with VS2008. The designer will not render many forms in designer mode. Currently I am getting this error "The type 'Team.CAD.UI.My.Resources.Resources' has not property named 'view_16'" Well veiw_16 is in the resouces file.
If for any reason I close the designer view of a window and then save the project, i can never see the designer view again. other forms that I have not closed the design view can be seen. When I run the project, everything looks fine, I am just not allowed to change the visual.
I'm building a game using the traditional form view on VS2010 and I'm trying to change the colour of a label's text depending on its contents. I believe I've coded that fine, but the problem is that the settings for the label in the designer view pane are overriding my code!Is there a way to disable certain options in the designer view so that my code can work?
I am an experienced developer but new to VB and I'm having a problem with viewing a subclassed tabpage in designer view. I have created several classes that are subclasses of TabPage. They display fine when the application is run and I can view the code with no problem.
However, when I want to fine-tune the controls and I go to the View Designer, I get a list of the controls rather than the displayed form. It looks something like this: <icon>ListBox1 <icon>ListBox2 <icon>BtnAdd <icon> BtnRemove <icon> GroupBox1
I expect I'm leaving something out of my class definition which is as follows: Imports System.Windows.Forms Public Class TabPageExample Inherits System.Windows.Forms.TabPage Private sTestType As String Private dTestDate As Date [Code] .....
i m using vb2010 express. I cannot find the designer view button for certain form. And the form icon at solution explorer from form icon change to icon contain vb wording.
In my project, I was first using two ListViews with a few buttons on the side to control actions (add files, remove files, etc). Now, I thought it looked neater if I incorporated those buttons into a ToolStrip, and put the ListViews into a SplitContainer.So I did... One SplitContainer, on the left side a ListView (docked Full) + ToolStrip (docked Top), on the right side exactly the same.
All of a sudden, (it seems to be pretty random), the right ListView (never the left one) seems to jump 'on top of' the ToolStrip. It looks as if the Z-Order changes so that the docking screws up, but after looking at the Document Outline, it is all still fine. The ToolStrip just seems to disappear from view completely. I have no idea where it went.Then, when I select the ToolStrip in the Component bar (what is that called? where you can see the control icons only for controls such as Dialogs etc), it suddenly pops up again, in the right place! And the ListView scales down a bit so everything is correct once again...
As soon as I select another control, the Listview jumps back up and the Toolstrip disappears again...At first I thought well, not really a problem since I can just select the ToolStrip from the component bar... Nope... It seems that the ToolStrip is also hidden during I thought it was just a one-off bug and deleted the whole SplitContainer to build it up again. Five minutes later, it happened again.I decided to throw away to complete project and go back to a slightly older version (with the Buttons instead of the ToolStrip) and try it again.Nope, same problem! I have tried to reproduce the bug in a clean project, but no luck...
aside from the difference mentioned below, what are other difference the two events might have and how will affect the application as a whole? What is more preferred to use and why?
Form Load: *Do stuff* Form shows up on monitor Form Shown: Form shows up on monitor *Do stuff*
OKay, I'm from a PHP background, but I've just been tasked with developing some custom Web Parts in SharePoint. I've figured out how to create and deploy a basic "Hello world" web part in VB. Okay so far.
how do I lay out things in a VB web part?
For an example, here's a label and a textbox:
protected overrides sub createchildcontrols() mybase.createchildcontrols dim mylabel as new label
[Code].....
How would I, for example, get mylabel and my textbox to appear on different lines, rather than running one after the other as they do now? In PHP I'd just wrap them in some top break them onto differnt lines, but how do I do it here?
i am making a small program just for fun. its a small form with six different buttons ( a text editor, a calculator, a music player, a button to change the layout of the form, a form that displays a bunch of links to websites i use, and a web browser, with a small text editor on the side, which is surprisingly useful) and i was wondering if you guys had any other ideas for some useful things i could add?
I am working on implementing localization in a winforms app and I went the route of setting the Localization property on the form to True and setting the default language to english,spanish, german, dutch and a few more. When I click on English the form displays correctly, when I click on Spanish or French it makes the panels inside the form small and the controls within it small. It doesn't allow me to resize anything or more the panel
I am wanting to make a tool where I can load up a previously coded project and then add error reporting to each sub/function.My problem is this: When I open up some forms, the layout is not as desired. Here is an example:The sub header: "Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click" is extended over two lines... (when opened up as text) is it possible in VB settings to change this to be only on one line? Or is there a 'word wrap' feature I can use when viewing text?
The end result we're looking for is a slideshow effect where a section of our main form shows a sequence of secondary forms which fade in/out on a timer.We can fade the forms in/out when they're shown individually, but the opacity setting doesn't seem to work when they're shown inside another form. What I've got, for testing, is code that should simply reduce the opacity to 10% after showing the inner form for a half-second, long enough to notice the reduction-except I don't see any change.
Dim f As New Form2() f.TopLevel = False Me.Controls.Add(f)[code]........
The opacity change takes effect without refreshing the form when shown 'stand-alone' but I've tried refreshing both the inner & outer form anyway, with no change.
