Auxilary Form Must Stay In Focus

Mar 5, 2010

I have made a program with a main Form and several auxilary forms. Is it possible to modify the auxilary form in a way like a msgbox. It stays always in focus, and you cannot interact with the main form. What I did find was the Form.enabled (True or False) method, but then the main form completely greys out, but I don't like the way it looks.

Forms :: Form Losing Focus - Keeps Loosing Focus ?

Nov 26, 2009

I have two forms in an application. One is he background and then I show another keypad form called with the show() method (not showDialog) because I need to perform some validations on btn click.

The kepad has 10 buttons and an Enter Button. The problem is that the form keeps loosing focus (I checked this with a messagebox which keeps poping up once for focus=true and again for focus=false, it continuously keeps losing and gaining focus) so it does not process any keypress events untill i click somewhere on the form. I tried using me.focus() in form load event but to no avail. The forms TopMost property is also set to true.

C# - In A .NET Console App, Have A Line Of Text Stay Visible In The Console All The Time?

Jun 1, 2011

I was thinking of adding a simple bandwidth monitor to a console application and I was wondering if it would be possible to keep a line in the console window visible at all times. I could set something up manually to pass new console output into a method that would get the contents of the console, clear the console, add the bandwidth data on the first row, then rewrite each line of previous information back to the console, etc.. but that seems like a really hacky way to go about it, and I'd be limited to the amount of rows visible at once in the console window (no scrolling).

VS 2008 - Working With Two Forms (Focus On Both) At Same Time

Jan 18, 2011

I have a form from which I am visually representing data (from access database). I have set up a user log on a separate form (allows user to make comments as they scroll through the data and see any points of interest etc). The second form is linked via a textbox in terms of a common field in this case the field name is "Datetime".

What I want to do is be able to scroll through the data and make notes on the second form and add them to another table in the database. I have managed to do all the above but obviously loose focus of the second form when i scroll through the data on the first. Is there any way of being able to interact with both forms at the same time?

I'm working on a program to wish my girlfriend a happy birthday, my idea is to show a label like a notification, similar to the one used in messenger, but I want it to be on top of whatever she is working on the computer at the time, even games (she's a hardcore gamer).

I'm a beginner, and I know how to do the label, the key press, but I don't know how to do the above mentioned

Set Focus When Form EnabledChanged?

Jan 18, 2012

The form is the main form, this form is Disabled while the user goes to a different form and then Enabled once returned (this is so some functions are automatically processed when this happens using Handles EnabledChanged) within this I want to set the focus to a certain text box i have tried setting the textbox to the lowest TabIndex but i don't think this will make a difference as this isn't the first time the form is opened and I have also tried textbox.focus() but neither of these have worked.
