GDI+ Resize The Form Does Not Refresh Properly

Apr 22, 2009

I'm trying to figure out how to make a dynamically scaling/resizing 2d chart on a form as my 1st trip into graphics. Most 3rd party addons/DLLs are of no use to me as the bank I work for is unlikely to allow any of those to be used in my projects.

Can't Resize Font Properly

May 29, 2010

I have a timer program. Initially, the font for the time is the correct size, and when I click "start", the time is the right size too(I had set the initial size to 26 in the properties menu). When I click "break", once the time is up, it displays "Break Over!!" to fit the label(because I changed the font size). Then when I click "start" again, the font has shrunken, even though I set it back to the original size of 26. Why is the font size for the timer not back to it's original size when I click "start" after I have clicked "break"?[code]...

Label Does Not Refresh Properly?

Jul 3, 2009

I am using a timer with 1 second interval, that calls a function (for example) to download a file. So every one second the following happens in the timer.

label1.text = "File " & fname & " downloaded"
label1.refresh
call processfile(fname)
' only if i use application.doevents label refreshes properly.

Now inspite of using refresh, the label does not refresh properly. For example: for the new text you may see the entire text but if the older one has few extra char then you see that also. in other words you see new text and part of the old text. I am so surprised as to why is this happening.In vb6 when we used to use refresh the label used to refresh properly.

VS 2010 - Form - MoveWindow API Alternative - Resize & Move A Form Using VB Commands

Mar 22, 2012

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.

DB/Reporting :: PopUP Form Refresh Combobox On Parent Form

May 31, 2008

I have a parent form that has a combobox. Whn the form loads I get the data from the db and bind to the combobox. that works fine and here is the code I use in form load to cause this to happen: [code] Now if there is not an Account Type, I have a button that will pull up a small form to allow the addition of an account type. The popup form adds the data back to the database just fine, but I am now trying to get the combobox to refresh its data. So I call a public Sub that is located in the parent form to from the popup form to accomplish this task and I have walked the code and the sub is called and appears to work correctly, but the new data never appears in the combobox. Here is my public sub that i call to try and refresh the combobox on the parent form. [code] But when I go back to the parent form, the combobox is not updated with the new account. How can i get the combobox to refresh from the database with the new data?

Form Does Not Refresh?

Jun 12, 2006

I have created a simple VB.NET application with one form and a few modules. When a user clicks on a run button of the form the application starts and goes through differet cycle, while updating the user on status bar, runs for less than four hours.

The application works fine, it gives desired result. However, it is not able to refresh the user form, meaning status bar remains same after some time (it suppose to increment). Even when I take mouse on the form it shows timer symbole instead of default one.

My application commands another device using GPIB. Basically, PC running my application commands the device. If I look the display of device it gives correct information.

How To Refresh Form

Oct 7, 2011

I have a form, with a datagridview. I can see the data and the related records in the DGV.I have another form that this one calls to add a new record. I need that because there are some specific parameters i need to control. But when the focus returns to the original form, I can't see the new record, even though it is there (I see it in the database).If I close the form and enter again I can see it, that is not what i want.How can I refresh the tables after the other process adds data to them?

Refresh A Form In VB?

Jun 3, 2010

I'm using Mysql database and Visual Studio 2005. I've got a form with datagridview, After making the changes in the data, it is saved in the database. The data gets saved in the database, but the modified data does not get displayed in the datagridview. Only if I close the form and open it again, the changes are displayed. I want to provide a button (refresh-button), which on clicking will refresh the datagridview, so that the modified data is displayed without closing the form.

Cannot Get Comboboxes Working Properly Within A Child Form?

Jun 20, 2012

I have spent a long time trying to find a solution for the problem I am having with comboboxes within a child form. I'm sure this must be a Microsoft error and not something I'm doing wrong..The best way to explain the problem would be to tell you what I have done so far:

If you open a new Project in VB and add two Windows Forms. Form1 will be the parent. Form2 will be the child.On Form1 add 1 x panel(Form2 will open up within the panel so make sure the panel is big enough to fit Form2) and 1 x button. The only code needed for this form is:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

[Code]...

Now run the program and click button1 to open form2 (form2 should now open within panel1).

The comboboxes and textboxes lose some of there functions for example:
1. You cant set focus on combobox without hitting drop-down
2. You cant highlight text properly in either the combobox or textbox.
3. You cant set the cursor index position using your mouse in the combobox or text box.

Does anyone know a way around this?? Mainly for the combobox as I've got some functions working for the textbox.

Properly Close A Form While Multi-threading

Jan 4, 2012

I thought Me.Close() works, but hey I'm a noob at this. Right now I'm using:

Form2.Show()
Me.Dispose()
Me.Close()

but now that I've published it, I have to pull up my task manager and do end process to actually close the app. This wasn't a problem until my office started using a public drive and everybody was using the program at once. An error popped up saying that the connection string wasn't initialized, but it worked on the computer that opened the app first. Maybe the real issue isn't properly closing the form, but that is annoying that I have to use my task manager to close my app.

Properly Deleting Items From A Windows Form?

i am running into some difficulty with the .NET garbage collector. i have a custom control that i need to dispose and reallocate depending on user interactions. calling ctrl.dispose() and then instantiating a new control accomplishes what i want, with the nasty exception that the garbage collector (at least, i am presuming this is the GC, since this exception will happen on it's own after the application has been idle in the background for several minutes) will then periodically throw an exception: "cannot access disposed object

Resize A Form To Print?

Alright, I need some way to generate a printable report from a text file. I'm thinking that the easiest way to do this is to create a form which will layout the information and then reading from the text file into the controls of the form. Then taking a screen shot of the form itself, and storing it into a bitmap and printing it.[code]...

Resize All The Controls On The Form?

Mar 2, 2012

I have a program that has a TabControl on it. There is code to resize all the controls on the form when the window is resized, regardless of what tab is selected in the TabControl. My issue is that the form will only resize the controls on the selected tab. So if the window is maximized, for example, it will resize the controls on the selected tab, but if the user changes tabs, the new tab will still have the original, non-maximized sizes on it. This works the same with un-maximizing the form, the controls on other tabs will remain the size they are supposed to be when the form is maximized. Here's some example pseudo-code to give you an idea. Assume button1 is on tab1 and button2 is on tab 2.

sub form_resize()
button1.width = x
button2.width = x2
button1.height = y
button2.height = y2
end sub

So the code is supposed to resize all controls regardless of the tab. But if tab 1 is selected it will visually resize button1 but it wont resize button2. To counter this, I simply made the form resize by 1 pixel and then move back to the original size when the user changes tabs. BUT this wont work for maximizing/un-maximizing the form. I tried telling it to detect window state on tab select so if the form is maximized, it will un-maximize it, perform the resize, and re-maximize the form but this doesnt seem to work.

automate this somehow so that regardless of selected tab or window state, all controls will be resized to the proper, current form size?
