VS 2008 Location - Make A Form Pop-up At Random Place
Jun 25, 2009I'm trying to make a Form pop up at an random place (given in a textbox). Here is my code so far:
Private Sub Timer2_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer2.Tick
Form2.Location = Textbox1.text
Form2.Visible = True End Sub
Yes i know it doesn't work. What I really need to know is how to make the txt understandable for the system.drawing.point.
VS 2010 Draw Rectangle (random Times, Random Location)?
Nov 26, 2011I am practicing using the drawing commands, and have gotten a grass background and black happy face that moves around the background.It's a 10x10 grid of 50 pixels.I want (at the moment, when i press enter) it to generate a random number of trees (15 ~ 25) at random locations on the background. The program doesn't freak out about anything, and the variables seem to be right (using stop commands) but it's not drawing anything. Here is the code for the "GenerateTrees" command I have for when I press enter.
Private Sub GenerateTrees()
NumberOfTrees = Int(Rnd() * 10) + 15
For i = 0 To NumberOfTrees - 1
bmap.MakeTransparent(Color.Fuchsia)

View 1 RepliesForms :: Resize Form And All Controls In Proportion To Their Startup Size / Location
Jan 5, 2012I 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 5 RepliesMultiple Forms - Declare And Instantiate Second Form On Program Start - Use Button Simply To Show Form?
Jan 14, 2010I have a program that uses two forms. The program opens to the Main form, and the user can navigate to the other form from the Main form through use of a button. Here's the way I've currently written it: When the Main form loads, it declares and instantiates the other form during the load procedure. When the user presses a button, the second form is displayed by means of the ShowDialog method. On the second form, there is a Return to Main Screen button which closes the second form, bringing the user back to the Main form.
So, here's the structure of the code:
Code:
Public Class frmMainForm
Dim frmSecondForm As New SecondForm
Private Sub btnSecondForm_Click(blah, blah, blah) Handles blah, blah, blah
[CODE]...
Here's my reasoning: Originally, I wrote the code so that a new instance of the second form was created every time the button was pressed. The problem was that whatever data was displayed on the second form, previously, was lost when the user returned to it a second time. Since the user would be switching back and forth between these forms, frequently, I needed that data to persist.
What is the best practice for accomplishing this:
1) Declare and instantiate the second form on program start, as I have done, and use the button simply to show the form?
2) Declare and instantiate the second form each time the button is pressed but maintain the variables on the Main form and pass them ByRef to a custom constructor for the second form? Is this even possible?
3) Something else?

Forms :: End Result To Show In Decimal Form?
Oct 21, 2009Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[Code]....
The end result is baffling me here are 2 examples when I debug
Mine: 640.1 * 49 = 31364.9
Debugger: 640.1 * 49 = 31360 ( not right needs to show the correct decimal )
Mine: .775 * 3 = 2.325
Debugger: .775 * 3 = 2.325 ( shows it perfectly???)

Forms :: Focus() Method Fails With Second Show Form?
Feb 7, 2010I have a simple login field, which works fine with the exception of one quirk. The form is set up with the tab order to go to the UserID first and the Password text box second. This works fine when the form is used the first time, but when the form is used the second time the focus in placed in the Password field. If the form is used a third time, focus is moved the OK button, that is each time moves to the next tab order. I even tried to set the focus in the Load event as in Me.txtUserID.Focus(), but this doesn't change the behavior. Again, I should note that I close the form and not hide the form.

Aug 24, 2009I have been working on a quite complex multiform solution.All of a sudden the start up form (in fact any form I designate to start up) loads, displays and operates fine.
But when I try and show a form using showdialog the form displays behind the original form and I can�t set focus to the ide to close it down. I have to use task manager or alt f4 while the form has the focus.
Calling different forms from this one gives the same result but other forms work fine. I don�t want to redo this form as Ive done a lot of work onit.The only thing I can think of that whist I was changing the startup form in the project propertied page (file>project>properties) I unchecked the �Enable applications framework checkbox.

Game Programming :: Appear On A Random Location On Another Specified Larger Picture Box?
Jan 13, 2011I have a picture box and I tell it to appear on a random location on another specified larger picture box.
here's my code:
Code:
Sub P2_AppleMove()
Dim P2ax As Integer = CInt(Int((P2Foodarea.Width * Rnd()))) ' sets the random area of the food
[Code]....
P2foodarea is a large picture box I created. I only want the apple to spawn on P2Foodarea, atm, it spawns on P1Foodarea which is very weird. P1foodarea is a whole other picture box. I even made new variables as you can see P2ax and P2ay, but it still doesn't spawn on P2Foodarea. I have even tried recreating a new picture box for P2foodarea

Forms :: Change A Property On Form - Doesn't Show That Change
Jan 13, 2010I'm working on a simple base form in which all the other forms in the project will inherit. This base form only adds 5 properties (at the moment) dealing with painting a gradient background. The problem I'm facing right now is when I change a property on Form1 (the test form) and click run it doesn't show that change. I also checked the .designer.vb file and when I make a change it's not added to the code behind file, I'm at a loss right now to why.

View 4 RepliesForms :: Control The Load Location Of An App?
Mar 19, 2009I am developing a windows app in VS2008 to be used along side ESRI�s ArcMap. Most ArcMap users will have dual monitors and I would like the user to be able to choose which monitor my app is loaded on to.
When I deploy the app using the standard install package, the app will load onto which ever monitor the user places the desktop shortcut. However, when using the ClickOnce method of deployment, the placement of the shortcut does not matter and the app always loads on the primary display monitor.
Is there a way to control where an app is loaded by code or any other method?
