I want to draw a textbox at runtime using mouse. I know I hav to use MouseUp,MouseDown and MouseMove events to do this. But i cant find the way to set textbox's height and width.
View 8 RepliesI am new to VB.NET, Now i'm working with Events in VB.NET, I have two event methods, Mouse Click and Mouse Down for a single button in a form, I have displyed a message in each of these methods but only mouse down event is triggered. Why Mouse Click is not triggered? Similiarly I Did the same for Mouse Enter and Mouse Move for a particular button, in this case both the events are triggered.

So I have my program make buttons similar to the above, I'm going to have a button created at the point were the cursor is, as long as the location is a valid one. Now I have two questions.
1) I want to use the following code to be able to move around any of the new buttons that I place down on the form.

2) I also want to be able to change the back color of the button based on a number of boolean flags I will be setting. Is any of this possible without completely mangling things? I'm hoping there are some easy options for setting a button made on runtime to use a number of premade subs or functions.
On a side note: This does not need to be exclusively a button. a picturebox or a text box would probably work just as well for what I want to do, but I like the look I can get with the button atm.
I had a project which will have a function to resize the images in the picturebox..i've seen some code snippet in resizing the images. The code works fine but it automatically resizes the image when i run the program..what i need is that the user will be the one who will resize the pictures..does anyone knows how to do this? i'm using vb 2008.
View 8 RepliesI would like to resize a panel at runtime using a mouse.I only need Vertical resizing.So, I have panel1 and docked a label to the bottom of the panel, this will be the drag bar.Now I'm thinking I need to use the mousedown event and capture the Y coordinates of the mouse? On Mouse up set my panel height to those new coordinates?Also, I'm pretty sure my panel won't redraw itself when this is going on. Should I set the panel height while I'm dragging?
View 3 RepliesIs it possible to have a Textbox on a form that when the user inputs data, ( during Runtime )that data remains in the Textbox for good and the Textbox then becomes read only ? Is it also possible to make it so that the CD with the programme on, is in the PC when the programme is being used. Perhaps writing the Textbox data back onto the CD ?

I have a form that is displayed, not by ShowDialog, but by setting its visible property to true. This is so it behaves like a dropdown.The form installs a mouse hook, using SetWindowsHookEx(WH_MOUSE, ...).
I detect if the mouse is clicked outside of the dropdown and if so, return 1 in my HookProc method and close the dropdown.The strange thing is, if I click outside of my drop down on to a textbox, the textbox still receives the mouse click, after my dropdown closes, even though it's been handled by my HookProc method.It gets stranger... If I click on a label or button, they do not receive the mouse click, as expected, after the drop down closes!

Right now I have a program in which I'm trying to read the mouse cursor position relative to the window form, but I am currently having a problem. It only works if the mouse is directly over the form, and it will not work if I hold the mouse over an object, such as a label, a command button, or a picturebox. I tried resolving this by adding handle clauses for mousemove over those objects, however, while it works for the label, it doesn't work for the pictureboxes. This is because the pictureboxes are in an array and are defined at runtime.How would I go about resolving this?

I have a form with 2 contols that I with to connect by drawing a "wire" on the screen. It goes like this: you mouse down on the first control then move the mouse while holding the mouse button down. When the mouse is over the 2nd control the mouse button is released and the controls are wired.
So I am playing with mouseup, down, move, etc. When the mouse is over the first control I get mouse moves from that control, but when it moves off the events stop, and I get no events from the form even though the mouse is there.
Is there a way to do this? I have seen it done in a Java app. I could brute force it and just draw a box on the form instead of a control, but that sounds like a step back.
I'd like to know how I can craete new forms at runtime.
Lets say I press Command1, a new form would open with a text box and a button on it. If I click Command1 again, another form would open with a textbox and a command button.
