View 3 RepliesUsually I am a web developer so this is probably a very novice question. I recently made an app in VB2008, but I developed it in a huge reso (1920x1200). The person that will be using it still uses 800x600 reso. Is there any simple way I can resize the entire interface to fit any resolution? I didn't really think about it at all while I was making the program.
View 1 RepliesI am developing an application for the first time and need guidance.Developement Env: Visual Studio 2005 Pro, Visual Basic 2005 , Windows XPApplication Target: Windows XP & VistaI developed the application under a screen resolution of: 1680 x 1050 pixels. When the application is installed on any computer with lower resolution, my application window does not size properly and many of controls end up "messing up". How can I fix this issue?Also, I have noticed when I resize my application by dragging the bottom right-hand corner the application does not really re-size, it just gets covered. I am attaching 2 skeleton snapshots of my application below....Image before resize (1680 x 1050 pixels) Image after resize (1680 x 1050 pixels)

View 8 RepliesI have a very high screen resolution on my laptop: 1400x1050.My colleague tried it out on his laptop (which had lesser resolution), and the application did not fit on his laptop.

My full screen sized Form is locked in size when I reduce it in size by clicking on the "restore down" [ie] not to the minimized size. I mean "locked in size" by I cannot for instance "grab" it on a corner and to increase or decrease its size. I suspect the control is in the properties window but I cannot find it.

View 2 RepliesI want to prevent from resize of form. I set false MaximizeBox and I set FormBorderStyle to FixedSingle. I couldn't change the MaximumSize of form at runtime. If the user double click on the Tiltebar of the form the form resized. I couldn't prevent that
Then I write the following code at size changed event
If FormLoaded Then
Me.MaximizeBox = True
Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized
Me.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.WindowsDefaultLocation
Me.Size = InitialSize
Me.MaximizeBox = False
End If
I am writing a relatively simple "yahtzee" program. Its set up so that the user can pull up a options window and select whether they want the game to be 1 or 2 players. If the user selects 2 players id like the second players score card to become visible on the Score Card window (easy enough with the visible property) and i would like the Score Card form itself to resize it self (at run time) to allow the second players score card to fit. How do i make the form resize to fit 2 players at run time?

View 2 RepliesI have a windows forms program that I upgraded from VB 2005 to VB2010. When the program was on VB 2005 the form would resize to any monitor resolution. But since I upgraded the program to VB 2010 some of my controls are off the screen when I run my program on a 1024 x 768 screen resolution. Why is it doing that?

View 2 RepliesI used to use the following instructions to lock my form from stretching.
Me.MaximumSize = New Size(550, 550)
Me.MinimumSize = New Size(550, 550)
Then I needed to keep the Form size fixed so I used:
Me.ClientSize = New Size(625, 500)
This makes it stretchable.How can I lock the Form from re-sizing?

View 6 RepliesI am in the process of creating an all-in-one application for my own purposes. This application has panels with different "Mini-apps" inside of each. Timer, Notepad, Calculator, etc... The top of the application is a drop down menu and each of the drop downs has "Minimize" and "Maximize" for the appropriate application. When the minimize function for a "mini-app" is clicked, then that application is not visible. When maximize is clicked, the the application reappears.What I am attempting to accomplish is that when, for example, the two lower panels are minimized then the form resizes to only show the top two application.Basically, its like rows. If the two bottom are not visible, then the application should resize to fit nicer. An example of this type of application would be Windows Calculator (found in Windows 7 systems and probably other OS).[code]
View 2 RepliesI have a form that has group boxes of various controls for data input. One of the group boxes contains a user control. This user control can be 1 of 7 I have depending on the type of data I wish my user to load. The 7 user controls are all of various size. My form is a fixed size, and i have allowed room for the user control to fit the largest. However, the smallest one has a lot of space obviously. The resizing of the form itself I am struggling with. It has to be the size it is at now as there is a tab control,
View 1 RepliesFor example I have Form 1 with 1 button, if I press that button a small form will pop out (This form is smaller than form 1, lets call it form 2). My problem is I want that if I press the button in form 1 it will show form 2 then adjusting the size of it and centering it.
I coded the Form 1 that it will send a string Extra_Background_Form.Label1.Text = "a" to form 2 then it will load form 2
totality of code in form 1:
Extra_Background_Form.Label1.Text = "a"
Extra_Background_Form.Show()

I have a form that sits on the user's desktop. It's only purpose is to display specific information about the computer. The layout is basically setup like this:
[Code]...
I want to be able to give the user the option to display whatever data they choose. In doing so, I'd like the form to resize itself based on the how many labels are in the form and for the labels to align vertically.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? For the form, I was thinking I could get the location of the last label and offset it's size by the location, or something similar.
developed my app on a Vista laptop and deployed it on an XP desktop. When deployed the Form and even some controls are resized so text and portions of controls are not visible.Next I moved the project files and VB to the XP desktop and published the application on that machine. Same result, in fact the sizes were changed within the properties of the forms and controls within the project files
View 14 RepliesHaving a bit of a nightmare with my application. I have developed my application in 1366 x 768. When moving onto other resolutions, the form looks totally wrong. Is there a way to have the application force itself to open up in a box that will fit the screen?(I'm more than happy to pay someone today or tomorrow who could look at making sure that my form gracefully up / down scales). This really is pretty urgent in that respect. If you have the ability to gracefully scale a form up / down and can do so for me either today or tomorrow, let me know of your price. (Possibly a bit naughty to pop this into the forums but I am willing to pay to get this sorted asap).
View 4 RepliesI have a Form (Form1) that contains a Panel inside the form. Inside that panel I want to load another form (Form2). This all works fine, however when I resize Form1 I want Form2 to resize aswell. The panel resizes fine but Form2 will not resize. Here is the code for Form1

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

Is there some sort of setting I am missing to be able to achieve this or is it not possible?
