A question in the textbook asks me to use a check box to hide the form title. This is not a homework or test question. I'm doing the book's programming exercises in order to further my knowledge of Visual Basic.
I have completed the entire project, but this alone stumps me. I can't use IF statements or anything beyond what I have learned up to Chapter 2 of this book. The book is Programming in Visual Basic 2010 by Bradley and Millspaugh.
If anyone has this book, can you assist me in learning how to hide the form title by using a check box?
I want to add an option to my windows form application (written in vb.net) that will give the user the option to hide the menu bar and the title bar. I can do the menu but i'm not sure what the best way is to hide the title.
I could just change the FormBorderStyle to none, but is that the best way of doing it?
I have a class that contains one function: "ShowDialog()" It creates a new openfiledialog and sets its title, but when it is run, the title of the openfiledialog is set to the current directory that is shown in the dialog. I would not like this behavior. Here is the code:
Public Class LoadSet Public Shared Function ShowDialog() As System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult Dim Dialog As New System.Windows.Forms.OpenFileDialog Dialog.DefaultExt = ".bsfci"
I am trying to check the title of a Previous Page to see if it matches the page title "JobDetails". If it does not then some code (MyCode) runs. The following code is failing to identify the title correctly even when the previous page title = "JobDetails".
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load Dim objPage As Page = Page.PreviousPage Dim sTitle As String = ""
I'm curious if it is possible to hide a group of text boxes from view in a form until a particular condition is met, and to have a custom set of text boxes for that condition. To give an example; I want radio buttons offering choices for a manner of searching records, the user selects one and then a specific set of text boxes are displayed for the user to utilize, if a different option is chosen a different set of text boxes will be shown. Is this something that can be done?

I am trying to display a child form in a Mdi Form without the child Form's title bar showing. The title bar is showing with the default Icon, not even the icon of the child form. When the icon on this second title bar is clicked the popup menu (Restore/Move/etc.) shows.
What I can't figure out is how to change the title of a form. Meaning when it opens, at the top (title bar) it will say Form1 for example, how can that be changed?
I found this link. [URL]. I copied the code to my app and tried it. It didn't work for me. I think in may not have worked because I have a panel control with the dock property set to fill and Label inside the Panel with the Labels Dock property set to Fill. So I changed the mouse event names from Form to Label1, that didn't work for me either. One other thing you should probably know is that I have a timer control running as well (don't know if that makes a difference).
i would like to be able to make my form title to be something like (document title) - (name of program). The document title is the title of rtb document. how would i do this? i sorta have start.
The application (Visual Basic) im currently working is a text document editor (ex. Notepad)And I want the form's title to show the file name thats loaded followed by the application name like this.
I'm gathering strings from a large text document using vb.net (2010 express) and storing them in array variables. The problem that I am seeing is that each variable that is gathered is appearing as text in the title Bar of the form. Is there a way that I can prevent this from occurring?
I am using vb.net 2008 i have been using a mdi form which is the startup form for my prog. and i have a main menu on that form. now i would like to shift to tree view as my client has asked for it. whenever a node is selected i can select the form corresponding for that particular code. everything is fine till here. but when the form is loaded the tree view is coming on top of the form the tree view is docked in a pannel. now i have tried everything treemenu.sendtoback and the say the form to b called is taxtypemaster then taxtypemaster.bringtofront but still the tree view is coming over the form
I have tried the following :
Dim mMenuSelected As String = e.Node.Name Select Case e.Node.Name
[CODE]...
Even the visible doesnt work as it seems after the .show it makes the tree view visible again. how do i hide the treeview pls. someone guide me at the earliest. i feel it is not the prob. of treeview but something to do with the mdi form am i right ?

i have been working on an app, that remains just my preset sizes. recently, i have discovered that by double clicking the form title bar, even w/the formborderstyle being set to fixedtoolwindow, the form still maximizes and all of my controls remain in the top/left corner.. not a good view.. so, i set the maximum size of the form, and now when double clicking it, moves it to the top/left of my desktop.. not a good result. here is a quick sample to start w/.
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[Code]....
how do i permanently block the double click on the title bar, to have no effect on the form? i do not want to end up w/having to create a borderless form just to avoid this..
I'm making a windows forms application, and I would like to know how to get a control to be on top of the titlebar/control box where the window title is displayed similar to the save icon on the Win7 Paint program or the tabs for Google Chrome.
How can I create a form with no title bar, but still have a glass border just like the Volume, Power Options, or Network windows have when you click on their icons in the system tray.[code]...
1. How do I force the Form to change its title through code? I tried: Me.Name = "New Title" during a button press, but that didn't work.
2. How do I make it so a form cannot be resized by the user at all? ie. they can't drag the sides.
3. I have made it to when I save in my application the status bar displays "Save Successful". How would I make it stay with that text a few seconds before displaying "Running..." instead?
I'm using visual basic 2008 and I'm trying to find out how I can move the form in runtime by clicking an area other than my caption/title bar? I've searched everywhere and couldn't find an answer.
