Forms :: MonthCalendar Control - Can't Set Colors?
Oct 28, 2010
I am using a monthcalendar control in my application to allow a user to select a day from the calendar that will load data for that day. the background is totally white (ugh). there is a backcolor property, but when i set it to say Cyan (yea right), the calendar still displays as white. I also can not set Forecolor, TitleBack/Fore color either.
I have gone to my project properties and turned off the "enable xp visual styles", and that had no effect. turned it back on...cant tell a difference. i am currently on windows 7 running VS2008 Team Edition. It would be really nice to change the look of this control to match the styling of my application.

I thought I only needed to click or double click a day on this controll to change it. Do I need to create a click event and if so (I have installed MSDN for VS2008) can I see what events are available.

I'm trying to bold dates on a monthCalendar control. Here's what I've got, but it's showing an error of "'Add' is not a member of 'System.Array'.
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim calendarArray() As DateTime
[Code]....
All I want to do is bold all of the dates on the calendar that there are files for.

I created a monthcalendar usercontrol and calling it from a parent form (in this case, click on button to populate the textbox beside it). Two questions.
1. How do I return the selected date back to the parent textbox?
2. How do I bring the monthcalendar usercontrol to the front and back of other objects?

When I resize my form that has a MonthCalendar control docked in a TableLayoutPanel, the calendar expands to multiple months as the form gets bigger. Is there a way to force it to stay a calendar dimensions (1,1)?

I'm Using MonthCalendar Control in my Form to select Multiple Dates. (for eg. 1st April,20th April,25th April). I'm planning to Change the date the user clicked by making it BOLD during run time, so that i can retrieve the results in a Date array. [code] MessageBox clearly shows the date selected, but no effect for the "addboldeddate'.

I've seemed to found some interesting behavior with the stock MonthCalendar control. I've set the MinDate property to 1/1/1990 but when I try to actually select a date anywhere previous to 1/1/2000 it jumps to 12/31/2999 why is that?
I've tries manually setting it to 4/8/1998 and it jumps to 4/8/2998 which isn't what I would expect a calendar control to do. Is there a reason it keeps it within the 21st century?

[code]For some reason I cannot change the color properties for the MonthCalendar control.[code]No matter what I change it to, it stays to its default color of white and black. Actually none of the color options work on any of the sections of the control.I am trying to hide the white border around the control and but a blue bar under the name of the month (top section).I have tried deleting the control and creating it anew on the form but no luck.It was working a couple of weeks ago.

When I select a beginning date on my MonthCalendar control it blinks real quick and then reloads,I am pretty sure this is not a normal behavior?code to select bolded dates and set beginning date and set controls with date range:
Me.txtStartDate.Text = Me.MonthCalendar1.SelectionStart.ToShortDateString
Me.txtEndDate.Text = CStr(Me.MonthCalendar1.SelectionStart.AddDays(27))
' create an Array of dates to hold the Range of dates from the MOnthCalendar[code].....

In VB6 I was able to do this
Public Sub SetLabelColours(ByVal Colour As String, ByVal TFont As String, ByVal TColour As String, ByVal TSize As String)[code]...
Is there a way to do it in 2010 .Net? It errors on Forms. also it doesn't like FontSize, I don't see a setting for font size in the drop down, can we set it no more in 2010? I am using RTB's as well.

I am building a simple windows form (using VB.NET) for a friend to use at work. His company has about 10 specific colors schemes (they have list of RGB values) that they use for the company logo, website etc.
I want to follow this color scheme in my application and, to simplify development, would like to build an enumeration of these colors to avoid hard coding the RBG value for every label, panel etc.
My initial thought was to do the following:
Enum ColorTypes
CompanyDarkBlue = Color.FromArgB(0,56,147)
CompanyBlue = Color.FromArgB(0,111,198)
CompanyLightBlue = Color.FromArgB(0,145,201)
End Enum
However, it's not that simple as a constant is required. I looked around on the internet and I found an example of how to achieve what I need but it seemed inordinately complicated for what seems like quite a common requirement for application development.

I have created a procedure as below for ressting colors of any control I decide
Private Sub ResetColors(ByVal Control As Control)
Control.BackColor = SystemColors.Control
End Sub
But the compiler cant accept (Tooltip1) I think because it is not a control Call ResetColors(ToolTip1)<---- Error

I want to set a color on items and subitems being displayed within the listview control in a detailed view.Using the forecolor property setting would change the color of all the contents in the listview control. All I want is to display different colors on each column of the listview control. If I have four colums on the listview, it should display the contents on each column in a different color. I tried to do it on my own but it was unsuccessful. I'm looking for the exact code to set the color successfully. Currently, the code below is what I have to display the data on the listview. What line of code should I add on the code below to set different colors on items and subitems of the listview?

I am trying to use a background image for one of my programs and I get this error when I try to make the BackColor Transparent. It allows me to use the Background image I want but I get this error when I try to change the BackColor to Transparent. A Box pops up that says "Property value is not valid.", then when I click Details, it says "Control does not support transparent background colors."

I am working on an application that ties into a SQL database on the back end. Currently the main form contains a series of combo boxes (Graph type, data format, location, and customer), two date pickers, and a button to launch the selections in a new form. Everything works just fine except there are a couple of things I can't seem to accomplish.
Example Data:
[CODE]...........
Case Select (with commented out lines for variations attempted):
[CODE]..........
1) I would like to be able to use some sort of case statement to color the bars in my chart based on value. I have tried approaching this in a couple of different ways but neither of the options seem to work. First, I tried this (the If Not is used because depending on what values are passed to the stored procedure in SQL, different columns will be returned):
[CODE]..........
Only one series is created with this method, so I can see how/why a Select Case would set all bars the same color. I have also tried creating a series for each row in the returned dataset but it results in 22 bars of different colors, for each of the rows (484 bars):
[CODE]..........
So is there any way to modify the second set of code there to only select the value from the "Percent TMHB" cell that corresponds with Row(i), rather than ALL values from the "Percent TMHB" column for EACH Row(i)?
2) Since I am drawing/creating these graphs in a new window, is there any way to also create a new timer on the "newFrm" and have the tick refresh the data? I've struggled with this but I feel like it should be easy. Say someone chooses a "TMHB", "Percentage", "Chicago", "All" (Graph type, data format, location, customer) and launches the graph, which opens in a new window, then they want to do "TMHB", "Percentage", "LA", "All" and have both windows up, refreshing automatically throughout the day. Can I somehow store the SelectCommand.Parameters values in the new form/timer so that it will query the database again every 5 minutes?
Example code for the StoredProcedure and creating the new form:
If combo_GraphType.SelectedItem = "TMHB" Then
Dim newFrm As New Form
Dim newChart As New Chart
[CODE]..................

If I set enabled = false, then it still appears the same, you just cant click on it. Is there anyway to set it to appear like a ghost of the normal control (like buttons do when you set enable=false)?

I'm trying to make a label control transparent over a Panel control.However by setting the background colour of the label to Transparent, it actually sees right through to the form itself, not the panel as intended.
As an example we use a panel with a background as white, we make the label transparent, however it gets the form�s colour as blue.However, we are using a custom panel control and need the label to be transparent over the panel and not see the forms background.

i have a splitter control on tab 2, a grid and a scheduler control on tab 3..looks fine...i save it....close the form...reopen the form, and the controls are all resized and moved around on me....and not for the better.
wierd thing is that when i run the app, the controls are placed properly, but design time is totally f&*ked up.I know this one isn't me. is it the tab control? should i just do toggle buttons at the top and show/hide my own panels? this is just too freaky to deal with. is there an easy work around for this?
