Handling Events From User Control Containing A WPF Textbox?
Mar 22, 2010
In order to take advantage of the spell checking ability of WPF textboxes, I have added one to a user control (with the use of elementhost). This user control is used in various window forms. My current problem is trying to handle keyup events from this textbox but the windows form is unable to "get" any event from the control. I can access the properties of the textbox just fine (i.e. text, length, etc.) but keyboard events don't seem to work.I have found, however, that the following will bring back events from the WPF textbox:
Public Class MyUserControl
Private _elementHost As New ElementHost
Private _wpfTextbox As New System.Windows.Controls.Textbox
[code].....
The user control is now able to do something after the PreviewKeyUp event is fired in the WPF textbox. Now, I'm not completely sure how to have the window form containing this user control to work with this.
I have various input textboxes on my form. And based on entries made in each of the input textboxes, I update the display textbox. However, using AppendText message of textbox. I have my input textboxes set to accept only numeric values. So for each character inputted correctly, I update the display Textbox. Problem I have is when user selects Key.Back or Key.Delete, what I would like to do is do a Delete of last character in the display textbox, but I am yet to get this right. How do I delete the last character in the string that is contained in a TextBox using AppendText()
I created a control that has picture box control docked within it. This control allows me to "animate" the image by swapping them out by setting the interval to swap them at. I want to use this control kind of like an animated icon within a application, but because the picture box is docked, the control I created won't respond to the events, MouseHover specifically. [Code]
I am trying to figure out how to declaratively pass in a event handler into a user control, but I am stumped. All I can make work is the user control's event handler.. I can't seem to bubble up the caught event into the parent page. Ideas would be quite welcome. Here is my code:Default.aspx:
<%@ Page Language="VB" %> <%@ Register TagPrefix="rpt" TagName="filter" Src="WebUserControl.ascx" %> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
How to create custom events for contol. i have created a user control mytextbox & i am showing some properties of textbox & now i want to expose user control events
I have created a base class for some user controls, then I created controls that inherit this class. This is so I can CTYPE the inherited controls back to the base class and refer to properties, methods and events in a common interface. The base class declares has some Public Event BLAH(Sender as object, e as EventArgs) declarations. The derived class then has Public Shadows Event BLAH(Sender as object, e as eventargs) declarations. My parent form adds handlers for the BLAH event. When the derived class fires the event, though, it does not get raised to the parent form.
I have the user control that is loaded dynamically. When the user save the data by clicking on the Save button, a raise event is passed.
Public Sub RaiseCloseEvent(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) RaiseEvent Close(sender, e) Debug.Print(String.Format("The control {{0}} was closed by {{1}}.", Me.Name, sender.ToString)) End Sub
In the save button I have called the RaiseCloseEvent as follows:
RaiseCloseEvent(sender, e)
Now, how can I close the user control form? Any Idea? I have used VB.Net language.
I have a TextBox which Is allowed only to read certain characters. I use KeyPress event to handle this event. I understand that The KeyPress event does not handle the pressing of the DELETE key on the keyboard. I do not want the user to be able to delete characters in the txtbox by using the DELETE key, I want the user only to be able to use the backspace key. I am writing this code in Visual Basic 2005. The following code appears to work in handling the DELETE key, but I am concerned that I might get bitten by the fact that I am using KeyDown and KeyPress on the same control (txtSource).
private sub txtSource_KeyDown(byval sender as object, byval e as KeyEventArgs) handles txtSource.KeyDown IF e.KeyData = System.Windows.Forms.Keys.Delete then e.handled=true end if end sub
I want to add a custom property to a button in window form. Currently i am using following code to create my logic. but i want to create an enum value for a button control.
I'm having trouble porting some .NET2-era C# to .NET2-era VB.NET. Specifically, I am trying to define an interface that an ASP.NET user control will implement.(For background, I am trying to re-implement Phil Haack's Model-View-Presenter example from several years ago: http://haacked.com/archive/2006/08/09/ASP.NETSupervisingControllerModelViewPresenterFromSchematicToUnitTestsToCode.aspx)
The C# interface I'm working from defines properties and events (IsPostBack, Load) that are already implemented by the base control.However, VB.NET is forcing me to explicitly implement these properties/events in the user control (Public Property IsPostBack() As Boolean Implements IView.IsPostBack...). I'd like to just define these in the interface and not have to do anything special in the code-behind of the implementing user control.I'm assuming that I can do this in VB.NET, I just don't know how. I've spent all sorts of time googling/bing-ing, and haven't come up with the answer.
I'm calling the SQLDMO 8.0 COM library from VB.NET (using a PIA I generated with tlbimp) in order to backup a database with percentage completion notification:
Dim server As SQLDMO.SQLServer = Nothing Dim backup As SQLDMO.Backup = Nothing Dim restore As SQLDMO.Restore = Nothing Dim backupAbortable As Boolean Dim restoreAbortable As Boolean
I need to write an app that that will iterate over our database, and perform various anaylsis on each record. In order to do this (partially for the learning exercise in creating plugin support) I want to use a Plugin model.
Currently, I have a simple Interface in my main app, which plugins can Implement. My app then loads all DLL's in a folder looking for ones implementing the Interface.
As you can see in the pseudo-code below, I have to keep performing a loop through all loaded plugins calling the process methods.
Sub ProcessData() For Each Record In MyDataSet For Each Plugin In MyPluginCollection
I have some VB6 code that instantiates a class which handles events that are being raised from a VB.NET component. The VB6 is pretty straightforward:private m_eventHandler as new Collection
public sub InitSomething() dim handler as EventHandler set handler = new EventHandler m_eventHandler.Add handler m_engine.Start
[Code]...
My problem is that when I debug the VB6 program, the first time InitSomething gets called, the event will not be handled (the VB6 event handler is never entered). Subsequent calls to InitSomething does work.
Everything works as I would have expected when I run the program outside the debugger. At this point, I'm not even sure if this is something I should be worried about.It may or may not be relevant but the VB.NET was converted from a VB6 using the Visual Studio code conversion tool (and subsequently manually cleaned up).
Work = New ExampleWork()Here the Work is a withevents variable and I've used the handles clause for handling various events fired by the ExampleWork object. However the event handler will not get assigned till the constructor of the ExampleWork returns. Now how can I handle any events fired from the constructor? I can move the constructor logic out to a separate method and call it after the constructor has returned and thus handle all the fired events including events fired from constructor. However it doesn't look good
I took a VB class a couple semesters ago and I did really well. Unfortunately, it seems as though we only covered the very basics within the class, as I feel rather clueless right now.
Here's my issue. I'm trying to write a program that will encode notes (like music notes, A-G#) which are entered by the user, into digits, 0-9. Now I have the system laid out, in that 1-8 will represent A-A, while a 0 or 9 preceding a digit will represent a flat or sharp respectively.
Now my question is actually rather basic, but I just can't seem to figure out how to do this. The user will enter the note sequence by clicking on buttons (12 of them). What I'd like to do is create one sub that will handle all possible button clicks. I suppose it's possible that I could have separate subs for each and every button; but it just seems more efficient and cleaner to have one sub that manages them all.
The part I have completed and working properly will display a message (the same message) in a messagebox each time any of the buttons are clicked. So I have the "Handles" part working for all 12 buttons. But what I'd like to do is write code, perhaps "If" statements such that If "btnA" is clicked, then say "You clicked Button A," and If "btnASharp" is clicked, then "You clicked Button A Sharp," and so on. Is it possible to do this somehow by recognizing which event was actually triggered?
I am trying to make a UserControl or Component which can be dragged from the Toolbox onto a container control such as a Form or a Panel. Its purpose is to change the behaviour of that container. In particular, I would like to add functions to the container's painting and mouse actions. I DO NOT want to have to write code for the container itself -- that's the whole point of the Toolbox object.
I can do this by getting a reference to the object's Parent (or Host in the case of a Component) and handling its events, as this example illustrates:
[Code]...
However, I have heard that handling the events of a parent control conflicts with OOP principles. So I would like to know, does that objection apply in a case like my example? If so, what are the drawbacks? And what alternative techniques are available?
i want to set the CommandTarget property of menu item to the TextControl which is written in win form or just tell me any way which can execute the command lets say cut copy paste on the control which is written in win form user control and added to xaml through WindowsFormsHost
I am creating a program using Visual Basic 2010 Express.
I want to make a Sub handling both MouseHover and MouseLeave events. Is this possible? And if possible, how do I differ between MouseHover event and MouseLeave event?
I would like to use MS Office automation and have event handlers that fire for user-triggered events. For example, if the user clicks the save button in Word, I want to intercept that event and execute code in my program.
I don't want to be bound to a specific version of Word because I don't know what version my user will be running, so I instantiate a reference to Word using late binding. The problem is that the AddHandler and the Dim WithEvents commands require specific references to an object that is known at design time. Given this, how can I define an event handler without having an early bound reference to a specific version of the Word library?
I can try to a reference to an earlier version of Word with the expectation that newer versions of Word will be backwards compatible, but this seems kludgey and risky.
I had a question about handling multiple events in a sub, like this:
Private Sub Form1_MouseUpOrDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Me.MouseUp, Me.MouseDown
'do something
End Sub
Once the sub is called, is there any way to tell which event called it? (Whether it was a MouseDown or a MouseUp event?) Right now, I am doing a work-around as follows... having each event call the same sub and pass the info in. But it would be nice to not have that overhead.
Private Sub Form1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Me.MouseDown ExecuteMouseUpOrDown(EventTypes.MouseDown, sender, e) End Sub

I have multiple textboxes which I want them to perform the same thing upon clicking them. By default I can use the handles textbox1.click for 1 single textbox as shown below but I am not sure how to do handle multiples of them. Of course I can write a handler for every single textbox but I have about 50 of them. I am sure there must be a more efficient way. [Code]
I am new to VB but I want to find this out. For example there are two objects in my form and when I press W,A,S,D then Object1 should move Up, Left, Down and Right respectively. Object2 moves when I press the arrow keys. How do I make them move together and also separately depending on whether the key is pressed.
Whenever we need to handle events, we do it by creating a method which handles the event. Without creating methods; is there some other ways of handling events?
I am trying to create a ContextMenuStrip where I add a certain amount of ToolStripMenuItems based on how many columns are in a DataGridView via code. I am wondering, since I am creating all these ToolStripMenuItems in code, how would I handle the "CheckStateChanged" event on all of them separately? Or how can I figure out which one of those ToolStripMenuItems was clicked?
Here's a code example of what I mean:
Private Sub CreateCMS() Dim CMS As New ContextMenuStrip Dim TMS_Main As New ToolStripMenuItem
I'm writing a tabbed web browser for someone who is learning VB.NET, and I have got to the point where I can add/remove browser controls into tab pages, controlled by one set of buttons on the main form, but I can't handle events from the WebBrowser objects.I have tried this but it says that 'DocumentTitleChanged' isnt an event of 'Control'...
Dim browser As New ArrayList browser.Add(New WebBrowser) browser(0).parent = TabControl1.SelectedTab browser(0).dock = DockStyle.Fill AddHandler browser(0).DocumentTitleChanged, TitleChangedHandler()
I want to update the tab title with the web page title when it changes. I started using a timer to update the tabs but there must be a way to add an event handler here.
