Forms :: Don't Move Form Out Of It's Parentsize?
Jun 23, 2009
I have made a from with a panel docking inside. And a second form with properties set to form_load:
Me.TopLevel = False
Me.Parent = Form1.Panel1
Now it loads nicley inside the panel of the first from.... However, I can move the second form outside the maximum size of the panel inside form1. Is there a way stopping this? Here's an image of it: So I don't want the second form to go out of the inner panel of form1. But I can move around in the area visible!

I'm using KeyDown to get the picturebox to move around, but I don't know how to keep the boat within the boundaries of the form. So if it hits the side of the form, I want it to just stop.
What control/procedure should I use to do this?

Ive made a calculator that estimates how high a model rocket will go. I was intending on making a simulation that will show you visually how high it will go. (Little rocket image goes up and stops at estimated hight) I know how to make a picture box move and everything, but i can only make it move to a set distance.

Private Sub UpButton_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles UpButton.Click
Dim index As Integer = ListBox1.SelectedIndex

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.

I've created a login form that allows users to type in their ORACLE database password. once authenticated, the form loads up the main application. my question is hopefully simple. How do i "properly" load the main app form? also, when they close the main app form, how do i shut down the application cleanly? Right now, the login form is always present, and until i close it, the app doesn't shut down. the way i'm loading the main form is as follows:

When we left click a grid cell, or list item, it highlights. Left click outside it and the selection jumps to the new place.
I can RIGHT click anywhere in the grid without disturbing an existing highlight, but I want it to work more like windows explorer would in terms of file selection..
i.e. if I right click inside the range, the range stays, if I right click outside the range, the range moves to a new single cell that I just right flicked.
Try it now on this page. Select some text, right click on the selection and it stays. Right click outside the selection and it goes. In datagrid (for example), the selection can only be modified with a left click.
How can we change this so the selection behaviour of a datagrid/list is more like this text pane?
On a related note. If I left click in a textbox I can drag a selection out. If i wanted to right click and drag the selection out, would it be the same process? (It's for a custom string manipulation picker control..)

When it comes to threading. I've managed to adapt one of JMcIllhinney's backgroundworker codebank examples to somewhat suit my needs, but not completely. I have a main form, and a second form that appears while I'm running through a for loop. It informs the user what is currently happening. I set up a backgroundworker that allowed me to continue to use the main form during the for loop, but the other "status" form was completely frozen, and any labels or graphics were shown as white boxes. I am struggling to figure out how to be able to move/interact with both forms while the loop is running.

I currently have a working program that creates one colored pixel in a Bitmap, displays the bitmap in a pictureBox, and "jiggles" the pixel by making it move in a random direction by 1 pixel every time a button is clicked. I want to make the pixel move automatically until a Stop button is pressed.

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 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

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.
