View 2 RepliesI only found the form event for form closing or form closed, do you know any event for "minimize or maximun form"?
View 2 RepliesI am drawing graphics on the screen and when the form resizes it needs to clear and redraw all the graphics b/c the form is a different size and the graphics are supposed to scale with the size of the form. Well that works, but not for maximize or restore. So I had to look on the internet for how to capture the maximize and restore event. I got it from here and it does capture it, but it does all the events (such as redrawing the graphics) first and then it maximizes, which totally defeats the purpose. I tried to do Application. DoEvents but it still doesn't do it. Any way to have the graphics redraw AFTER it maximizes?
Code:
Private Const SC_RESTORE As Int32 = &HF120 'When a Form is Restored
Private Const SC_MINIMIZE As System.Int32 = &HF020& 'When a Form is Minimized
Private Const SC_MAXIMIZE As System.Int32 = &HF030& 'When a Form is Maximized
Private Const WM_SYSCOMMAND As System.Int32 = &H112 'Minimized/Maximized/Restore comes when we have this msg Const WM_NCLBUTTONDBLCLK As Int32 = &HA3 'When User Clicks on the Title Bar
Protected Overrides Sub WndProc(ByRef m As Message)

View 1 Repliesi want to give windows vista look to my windows forms. I am using vb.net 2005.
View 2 Repliescan't seem to figure out the solution to. I have a form within a form that works fine. However when I want to maximize the form the top of it goes behind the menu bar rather than just below it as I would expect. Also, when I minimize the form it simply minimizes and hides behind the status bar at the bottom. I've tried adjust the location coordinates, window state, start location.

I was wondering how to create my own minimize and maximize buttons. I would like a oddly shaped form, so my FormBorderStyle is set to None.
I still want the user to be able to minimize and maximize the form, and in vb6 it would have been like (I use commandbuttons on the form)[code]...
I have a form with formborderstyle = none. I already know how to move this form and resize it. But I want to maximize the form when you double click it.
I already know:
Private Sub Form1_MouseDoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Me.MouseDoubleClick
WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized
End Sub
Now its maximized, but now I want it to go to the previous size, so when you double click again when maximized, the form goes back the the previous state.
I'm building a border-less form so I can customize the Minimize-Maximize-Close buttons. I've noticed now that I can't move the form. I docked a panel up at the top of the form to replace the regular window border. I put custom Min Max Close on it. How could I program the panel to move the window like the border does with a regular window?

View 1 RepliesI have an MDI application that uses the menustrip control. When the MDI Child window is maximized, there is no way to restore its size. There's a restore on the MDI parent but that restores the entire application. However, when I use the Main menu, there are two sets of Maximize/Minimize controls, one for the MDI parent and one for the MDI Child. The Mainmenu control adds a band that is used to display the Maximize/Minimize controls but the band the menustrip creates is not used to do the same.

View 2 RepliesI have a tutorial Application (in VB.NET 2005) for MS Office 2007 and have some Exercises for Users. When User clicks on given Exercise (for example: MS Excel), this Application minimize and launch related Excel file through program with Modal Form over Excel Application containing Exercise text in Label and Button to Submit the Exercise. User performs that given task and submit it by click on the given Button. This will check that file, close it and maximize the Application again for next Exercise.
My problem is When User perform the Exercise and click on Submit button, it checks the file, close it and didn't maximize the Tutorial Application all the time. Sometime it Minimize / Maximize properly, but sometime it doesn't Maximizes. (I can see it running in Task Manager)I have used the following code:

What I want to do, for one, is record audio through a microphone input, then play it back with only a few milliseconds delay. Maybe a way to do this would be to record, say, 200 milliseconds, save it to a temp folder, play it, then delete and repeat? I don't know. Would my idea work? Second, I want to use a VST dll file as an effect on this audio. I have absolutely no clue as to how I could do this. (Third one is optional, not really needed, but would be nice. you don't have to answer this third one) Third, I want to minimize the feedback. An idea of mine is maybe a frequency cut off, anything above avg human voice frequencies?

View 4 RepliesI have a solution with several projects most of which are code or control libraries. I have a main windows forms application that references and uses these libraries. What i am trying to do is create a 2nd windows application that extends the main one, but i would like to be able to deploy them as separate exe's.
When i try to add a reference to the new app referencing the main app; all seems fine until i try to run the new app i get several error msgs similar to below:
Error 1 Could not find file 'ADODB.dll' referenced by assembly 'D:Visual Studio 2005ProjectsXXXinDebugXXX.exe.manifest'. <newAppName>
i have tried adding references to all the dll's in the error messages and they are still listed when i try to run the new app. I thought of a few work arounds but they require user changes to maintain separate exe's at deployment. I would like to avoid this if possible.
Have you ever seen the whitish glow around the titlebar text in Vista? You know, the feathering around the text that makes it stand out from the Aero glass? Well if you haven't, look at the picture in the attachment. Does anyone have an idea as to how I may reproduce it, specifically draw it around some text on the Aero glass? I already know that the Aero glass can be implemented using some APIs in dwmapi.dll. Are APIs for the glow also in that dll? I'm unable to find any info on how to do this in the official documentation.

View 3 RepliesI am been working on an a small app that has a Forms.Webbrowser control that navigates to a Adobe Flash program. I have developed the app on Vista 32bit platform and have had no problems. I have sent the app to a couple of people to test out and one is using Vista 64bit and is running into a problem. I know the webbrowser control just uses the underlying base framework of IE. The problem on the 64 bit machine is when the site is navigated to it says that it needs to have Flash installed. When the user goes to Adobe's site it says they need to use a 32bit browser.
As stated on Adobe site here:[URL] the Flash player need to be in a 32 bit browser. What options do I have to be able fix this problem? Is there another control that I can use that would be the same in a 32bit platform and 64bit platform? Besides navigating to the Flash program, the browser also goes to standard web pages.
