I have been searching for a solution to this but I can't find one. I have played with the anchor and dock properties but they are not doing what I want, so here goes... I would like to place and size all of my controls on my form and then when the form is re-sized during run time (different resolutions, full screen/windowed, etc), have everything just scale up or down accordingly. Anchoring the controls to all four sides of my form re-sizes the control properly but it doesn't move it's location in sync with the other control's size next to it, they begin to overlap each other. Am I going to have to code my own scaling code for each control in my program?

View 3 RepliesI have a theme called 'Zune' on my computer, and like the way it looks.Is there a way too, make the program use the 'Zune' theme..even if the computer itself is using the default xxxx theme?I can simulate it by doing the graphics, but to make the program border less, then to do the move code when they click on the image box...etc... makes it for tedious work.
If I could somehow make the program use the theme..
I've written a small program to open at startup, but I want to give the user the ability to delete it from showing on startup by clicking a button.But it needs to be compatible on XP, Vista and Windows 7. Is there a line of code which will get the default startup folder path automatically so I can then delete it using my button?
View 1 RepliesI can hide my startup form (or make it appear hidden) on startup. I can start my app on windows startup--through registry values--if the user checks a checkbox.
But if the app starts up on windows startup, I want the form to be hidden, so the program can just keep working without bothering anyone. If it starts up because the user started it, I want the form to be showing, because the user probably wants to change some settings or something.
I want the location of the current execution project i.e in VB.NET/C# or the current class file's path? Ok,let me elaborate i got 2 projects in one solution file,lets say A,B are projects, my startup project is B ,and im accessing a class file in A ,now i need to know virtual path of B. because i need it for accessing the resource file coz error pops up when using ExpressionBuilderContext
View 3 Repliesknow that there is library which can change the theme of the form but i do not
View 1 RepliesMy next question is how do i use a .msstyle file for the form theme/style? Preferably not using SkinSoft Visual Styler.net because this doesnt support some things like fixed single border. It also isnt free.
View 16 RepliesOk, so i am trying o make it so that a user can change themes, i have moved all major code to a module so it can be accessed but then i have a problem.
I have 6 forms, all forms are the same just different themes, The problem is that in the module it calls form1, like for example form1.webbrowser.blah.blah, if i user used form3 for there theme then this dones not work as in the module it calls form1.
Basically i need to add something else there like for example:
dim Cform as string
Cform = form1
Cform.webbrowser.blah.blah
But form1 can not be a string
I wanted to know how you could make your own custom form border style.

It says index and location must refert to a location withing string
we have a user that my program works fine for.. and another that it just crashes for.. they get this error
"You cannot start application <App_Name> from this location because it is already installed from a different location."
then they run it up again and it comes up.. and then just closes..in reading some stuff online it says its a framework 2.0 sp 1 issue ?these pc's have 3.5, but my program uses all 2.0 stuff..so is this a 2.0 sp level issue ? or should I make my programs start to use framework 3.0 instead ?

Theres just one major problem i have. Whatever operating system you are using for your current computer (windows 7 in my case) the buttons and tabs and everything else (apart from the windows border... or whatever you all it which i made myself) everything has the modern buttons on it.Hes an in game screen shot :As you can see it looks totally horrible... even the start menu has the windows 7 blue glow effect...I recently found another application (universe Sandbox) and it has the classic buttons even though i am using windows 7.how can i actually make my buttons classic? (without making picture boxes of each button)

I have a project in VSTO/VB using a BackgroundWorker that works fine. It is a form that calls for a web page of information. The web page can take a while, so I have the form calling with the BackgroundWorker.I then have an Excel Addin project that has added the BackgroundWorker project. When I call up the form from the Excel Addin project and use the BackgroundWorker to request the web page, it grabs the web page ok. But the work done upon completion, during the BackgroundWorker1_RunWorkerCompleted method, is resulting in an error message:

Using a splashscreen.
When the spashscreen is done, the main menu for the program appears.
The problem is that the main menu appears UNDER things already open on the desktop.
Always On Top could be the answer BUT if I do that, all sub-menus will be UNDER the main menu rather than stacked on top.
