Get Preview / Miniature Window Even Without Hovering Over Button?
Dec 11, 2009
In Vista when we hover over the button of the application in the taskbar we get a preview of the window, is it possible to get this window even without hovering over the button?
I would like to find out if it is possible to read or capture the name of control the mouse is hovering over on any window. I have tried to research it and maybe using win32 or looking for accessibility info I'd like to be able to have similar functionality in my app as the inspect32 application that Microsoft has at sysinternals that can do this, I want to know if a user hovers over a control (in any window or part of the Windows O.S.) for a while, if longer than a certain time then capture that..
I am using Vb.NET to build a windows application. In menu-strips by default the submenus will appear on clicking on the menu items. I am willing to display the submenu items by hovering the cursor on menu items. What is the procedure to do that?
How do i get the name of a control (in this case a button) the mouse is hovering over? i have a toolstrip, and the buttons are created dynamically. when i hover the mouse over the button, i want the name of that button to appear in a text box.
maybe something like this...
Code: Private Sub ToolStrip1_MouseHover(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ToolStrip1.MouseHover
How to catch the event of the window close button(red X button on window right top corner) in wpf form ? We have got the closing event, window unloaded event also, but we want to show a pop up if he clicks the close button of the wpf form.
I would like to add a window preview function (live or not) to my application. Something like the mouse-over on the vista/7 taskbar. the only thing I have is the hWND to the program's main window.
I'm using a WebBrowser to print some HTML data, all works good except for the print preview called in the load completed event - It opens as a very small window in the top left, anything I can do to improve this?
Private Sub BtnPrint_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnPrint.Click Dim webBrowserForPrinting As New WebBrowser() AddHandler webBrowserForPrinting.DocumentCompleted, New WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventHandler(AddressOf PrintDocument) [Code] .....
I need to be able to test if the current view is print preview in Excel 2003.
Is there something in the excel object model to simply access this property? (Like the application.printpreview in the Word object model...).
PS: Long story short, I'm developing a vsto addin with keyboard short-cuts to my custom functions, and I need to disable this shortcuts when print preview is on.
I have been asked to create a HTML preview button in my application that takes the html message code in some textbox or text area and opens up a web browser displaying it on the page for review before the message is inserted into the database into a varbinary datatype I am assuning.
I'm trying to get a print preview to load only after a button is pressed. This program uses a printDocument and a PrintPreviewControl.The printDocument (prtDoc) is loaded/printed when the user clicks the button. Then I click the "clear" button. This resets some variables, and SHOULD reset the document's text so that it can be changed later. But it doesn't; How would I go about changing the prtDoc document after it's already been rendered?
I am trying to find the handle of the child window for the Yes button in the User Account Control window so i can click it. This window has a structure with a few child windows with the same name.
Dim hwnd As IntPtr = FindWindow(Nothing, "User Account Control") Dim hwnd2 As IntPtr = FindWindowEx(hwnd, 0, "DirectUIHWND", vbNullString) Dim hwnd3 As IntPtr = FindWindowEx(hwnd2, 0, "CtrlNotifySink", vbNullString) Dim hwnd4 As IntPtr = FindWindowEx(hwnd3, 0, "Button", "&Yes")
There are multiple CtrNotifySink with its own Button child window or other child windows. How do i search thru the different CtrNotifySink window to find the one that contain the Yes button so i can send a click to it? I do need to find it before i can send a click, right? because i try just sending it to the main window with sendmessage and nothing happen.I even try sending it directly to the handle found by spy++ of the yes button with bm click but nothing happen?
I am developing a next gen App for my Email Client for future Windows 8 users. Now when i used to use Visual Studio (Visual Basic) 2008 to develop for Windows 7, I used the command "FORMNAME.show()" And that command would open the form.The Problem i am having now is that "SHOW" is not included and im guessing that there has to be another way to do this. For the Beta version of my app, i created a test Button that i want to open a "SplitPage1" the button is called " btnOpen"?Now to give you an idea what i wanna do, i made buttons on the top right hand corner that are called "File , Edit , View" and so on, and when the user clicks file, i want a spiltpage to open with all the options the user would regularly have when clicking file on a menu tab in a program. the options would be lined up on the left hand side when you hover over lets say "New Email" on the right hand side there will be a short description that will appear saying "create a new email to send" and when clicked on it will take the user back to the mainPage and it redirect the browser to "SendnewEmail url".
I have a form containing a date textbox and a submit button and a close window button. The date textbox onblur calls a javascript function which checks for date validation and some other logic and displays some alert messages. The date on the textbox is always selected and onfocus. My problem is when I try to click the close window button with/without changing the date the alert messages from the onblur logic are displaying and I am unable to close the window. I tried using onchange instead of onblur but onchange too works when a control looses focus. it works fine when I donot change the date but when I change the date and hit the close window button it too displays the alert messages and the window does not close. Please suggest me what will be my best option.
I am busy with a Windows Forms application.The purpose of the application is to convert Excel documents to HTML format so that they can be published to a website.I have most of the code finished and the application is looking really good.I have although encountered a problem. On the Form I have created an Export, File and Edit button.With the edit button I would like the user to be able to select whether they would like to save the 1st,2nd,3rd sheet and so forth.
I would like to create a window/Form within the edit button that would say something like "select excel sheet" along with a save button where the required sheet number could be saved or selected as a standard save procedure everytime.I know that I need to do this with the settings.settings control. I have tried numerous ideas up until now but it continues to baffle me.
I'd like to know if that's possible to locate the text that I'm currently positioned on, in order to show it on a tooltip.I've just googled but found nothing. It seems like I have to use MouseHover event, but can't find how to find the position of where I'm currently on.
I currently have a picture box and it has a MouseHover event. When the picture box is hovered the picture will change images. But when it is not being hovered upon I need the picture to switch back to the original image. Is there anyway to do this.
I'm reading a tutorial provided by someone at my university, and it claims that if you're debugging a VB.NET program, you can hover over a conditional (e.g. "Age > 13") and it will be evaluated. However, in VB 2010 Express, I am not seeing this functionality.
I believe the tutorial may have been written for a previous version of VB.NET, so I was wondering if anyone could tell me if this used to work and has been removed, or whether it has never existed?!
I am able to hover over a variable and see it's current value, and I can even "Watch" an expression (such as the conditional), but the tutorial claims[code]...
I know that in Mouse event I can use this code to get control name the mouse is hovering over: dim _name as string = sender.name.ToString But how can I get the name of a control when I am draging another control over it?
I have been tasked with showing a tooltip when I hover over certain TabPages within a tab control, I have tried everything I can think of to resolve this little task, but still I am left with no clear answer.
the events that I would normally use, seem only to fire if the mouse is over the actually tabpage, I am more interested in the tabpage under the mouse in the tabcontrol.
Shading some areas of a clock's image based on the time.I have successfully shaded some regions based on the start time and end time. But I wish to add a facility so that when the mouse is moved upon a shaded region(there will be atleast 2 shaded regions), I would like to display a message corresponding to that region.
I have a tabpage. And I have a combobox in it.When I hover my mouse over it, my tabpage's paint function runs.Why?The Combobox has no functions handled. It is just a Combobox.I move the combobox out of the tabpage, and now the tabpage won't paint when I hover my mouse over the combobox. Weird..
When debugging in the old VS 2008 with the program stopped at a breakpoint, I could hover over a variable, say a string, and the value of that string would appear in a little box by the mouse pointer. In visual studio 2010 beta 2 this doesn't appear to happen.Is it a feature that needs 'turning on' somehow?I've tried debugging in 64 bit mode and x86 mode, neither works.
I'm using VS 2008 under Windows 7. When I hover the mouse over a variable in debug mode, the value will fade in slowly. Sometimes it is annoyingly slow, I just want the value to show up, no animation or fading. Or is this fading feature a Windows thing and not a VS thing?
