FormBorderStyle=None, But Cant Move Form Around?
Feb 11, 2009
I just started VB.NET coding, and I think I come along quiet well. Offcourse, I get a few errors, but When googling it, I always come to dream.In.Code, so I thought I'd better register here.
Now, my problem is, that when I set FormBorderStyle to None, it looks so cool, but I cant move my form around in debug mode (Nor when launching my finished builded application)
Here is my whole Code in my application, as I dont know what parts I should post here:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button8_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button8.Click
[Code].....

I am using the software called Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition. I've created this calculator on my own, and the past hour I've been messing with the design. Right now I am wondering how I can move the form around, with the FormBorderStyle set to none (no borders (means no exit button, minimize etc. I made those myself )
What I'm looking for is that I should be able to press anywhere on a place that isn't used (black place) and drag it around. I forgot to mention another issue that I have. The textbox on the calculator accepts any signs and letters, how can I make it so it just accepts numbers?

how do i reshape a form with formborderstyle set to none?specifically i've kind of photoshopped my own frame and everything (and set it as backgound image), but i want to trim or curve the edges because the angles on the form look ugly.alternatively if there is a way to make the form's background color actually transparent, that could also work. but i prefer to trim the edges

I set the FormBorderStyle to None because I wanted the project to only show a background image and the contents I put on it. Here is what I need to know?Is there I way that I could ONLY add the X Button as a separate image to the project, or do I need to make the Background image have an X button?

What is the best way to resize & move a form using just VB commands? I have a form that I need to set the Height and Top props, problem is that takes two calls and there is a noticable flicker. I tried using SuspendLayout/ResumeLayout, DoubleBuffered, swaping the top and height calls around, etc, but nothing seems to help. The test forms only have one small listview and one or two buttons.

How do i load the Main form of a WPF so that a seperate thread goes and gets data from the database while the form is in an apartmentstate ? (drag-able / movable) I Know this is possible with opening a new window from your main form like this :
Private Sub openOrderWindow()
Dim OrderWindow As Orders = New Orders
OrderWindow.ShowDialog()
End Sub
[code]....
I've tried putting MyBase.ShowDialog() and .Show() and .9000+ other things The only benefit I've got out of using a seperate thread to load from the databse is i can see the screen right away (as oppose to it being a transparent box until it loads) but i cannot move it around or minimize itis there any way to make it Movable while it loads?

I wont lie to you, i havent really touched VB since I was about 16 (i'm 25 now) so I'm pretty lost on what the heck that means. I can get rid of the as any by changing ANY to LONG or INTEGER but I still cant figure out the speedo_frm part (that is the form name, go figure.
Edit: I'm using visual studio 2008..

create a windows app. project with one form and 2 buttons ( if you tell me how to do one of the buttons, I'll figure out the other one). When you click one button it should move the form 2 pixels to the left. The other should move the form 2 pixels to the right.As a hint, he says to use the form's "LEFT" property -- but, I don't see "LEFT" in the properties window for the form.

I have searched on this but I keep finding people trying to keep others from moving forms. And also nothing in the code bank.
Here is what I am making. I am making a tournament overlay program that tracks current players progress for shoutcasters (displays their name, race, score, color, ect).
I have a control panel that will change all that information on another form, the borderless one, that will "Always be on top" of the game displaying information.

I have done lots of searching but came up with nothing. How do I simply move an object on my form? For example, how would I change the position of a button when I press a button? I'm sorry if this topic has been beaten to death

If a form has its form border style set to None, how would you go about moving it?
I thought that this would work:
Private Sub Form1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles MyBase.MouseDown
Me.Location = MousePosition
End Sub
but it doesn't.
