View 3 RepliesI need to make a winform full screen. This is what I found online.
1. Hook WinProc to catch WM_SYSCOMMAND
2. Check wParam == SC_MAXIMIZE and then
3. Set my windiw's attributes
Me.ResizeMode = ResizeMode.NoResize
Me.WindowStyle = WindowStyle.None
Me.WindowState = WindowState.Maximized
I am fairly new to vb.net and do not know how to do Steps 1 or 2.
I have created 2 forms: "Form1" and "Form2"....Form1 is MDIcontainer and it contains Form2. In Form2 I have inserted the windows media player OCX. When I run the program and try to set the media player to fullscreen (via command button) appears an error:
{"Errore irreparabile (Eccezione da HRESULT: 0x8000FFFF (E_UNEXPECTED))"}
Here's the
Public Class Form2
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.fullScreen = True
[Code] ....
If I open a new project and I copy the code and the media player it works! I think problem is when I use MDIforms.

View 5 RepliesI need to create a vb-application which plays video-files as a fullscreen mode on computer's external screen. At the sametime user must have control to these files on another screen shown on the computer's (laptop) own screen.
So far I have managed to open the videofile as a fullscreen mode so that user has to first drag the videopanel (not a problem in this case) to the another screen and then click the "Fullscreen"- button on the control-form. Now the problem is that when another screen is playing on a fullscreen-mode and user clicks the control-form on the main screen: the fullscreen-mode ends and the videopanel results to the video's actual size.
Is there any solutions to this? So I'd need to continue the fullscreenmode on the other screen while there are user actions on the main screen. I am using DirectX / AudioVideoPlayback by Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition. And yes, I am quite a newbie with VB-related things :)

View 2 RepliesI'd need to show an image in fullscreen mode on my application when a music-file is being played. Is it possible to define a form and an image (picturebox) to be shown as a maximum size on the screen?One thing that makes it even more interesting is that I'd need to show it as a fullscreen mode on a external screen.
I can move the form to external screen like this:
Form3.SetBounds(2000, 112, Form3.Bounds.Width, Form3.Bounds.Height)
Is there a way to add a Full Screen button to the embedded media player?

View 7 RepliesI have been looking for like 3 hours trying to find a dll or anything to make a simple cards game, but everything I find is oriented to C.
In this page A FreeCell game using Cards.dll - CodeProject� they talk about just what I want, but I cannot make it work in Visual Studio 2008 using Visual Basic.net, I don�t know if that has anything to do with the Vista OS I am using.
In the page I mention the author says "There are many good articles on the net on how to use the Cards dynamic link library" and I am sure the good articles are there, but my good luck has make me looping around the same nonsense results so I end up with nothing after 3 hours search.
The game I want to make is just something for a project we must do in class, how to start making a cards game fast and simple. If someone knows about a cards dll that works fine with vbnet, that someone would be my new hero.
i'm just wondering if someone can help me make a game in visual basic 2008? can i get some exact code on how to make it.

View 10 RepliesI seem to have a bit of a problem with the ICShartEditor text editor. It works fine for me in a Windows Forms app, except that if I have a button (or any other control) on the same form that defines a hotkey (like ALT-S for a Save button), then whenever I try to type 'S' in the text editor (or whatever the hotkey might be), then it triggers the hotkey rather than adding the character to the text.What appears to be happening under the hood is that all the ProcessMnemonic() methods for all controls of the form run, so those methods kick in and handle the keypress, which I would think should only happen if a key like the ALT-key is pressed.
