How To Change Form BackColor To Gradient One
Jan 5, 2009
How can I change a form's backcolor to gradient one. The code (VB.Net) -
e.Graphics.FillRectangle(New Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush(New PointF(Me.Width, 0),
New PointF(Me.Width, Me.Height), Color.FromArgb(0, 58, 140),
Color.FromArgb(0, 215, 255)), New RectangleF(0, 0, Me.Width, Me.Height))
'fade from left to right
This code changes the form's background to a gradient one. It works fine. Now I want this to take place in an MDI form which will be a container for other forms. If I turn option IsContainer = False then it works but otherwise it does now. How can I change backcolor of MDI Form to a gradient one ?

When I change the BackColor for a Form, and then add new buttons, they have by default the same BackColor as the Form itself. That does not show on my Windows 7 development computer, but when I use the program on an XP machine, all buttons appear the same color as the form.
I correct this by changing the button's BackColor property to ButtonFace, but it is a pain to do it all the time and some times it gets past me and a wrong color button goes into the application.
Is there a way to change how this works so all buttons are placed with ButtonFace BackColor by default?

I created 3 Forms (Form1, Form2 and Form3) and I added a button on every form. This is code for Button1 on Form1:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Form2.BackColor = Color.Red
Form3.BackColor = Color.Red
Me.Hide()
Form2.Show()
End Sub
Code for Button1 on Form2:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Me.Close()
Form3.Show()
End Sub
Code for Button1 on Form3:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Me.Close()
Form2.Show()
End Sub
Now, the problem is that when I click on Button1 on Form3 it shows Form2 but the Form2 BackColor is not red, it is default color, A.K.A Control Color. But I specified in Button1 on Form1 that Form2.BackColor is Red. And also if I click on Button1 on Form2 when Form3 shows it, the Form3 BackColor is also default, it is not red.
I know one way to solve it but it is so not-professional. It is that you add on Button1 on Form2 this:
Form3.BackColor = Color.Red
and on Button1 on Form3 this:
Form2.BackColor = Color.Red
It is ok in this situation but what if I have more stuff, for example if I have an option for changing theme so it has to change all labels and buttons ForeColor, what then, is there any other way?

I have this code for a gradient form(EXAMPLE 1). It works fine on its own.I tried putting it into an existing project of mine and I cannot get it to work. The project is quite large so I am no sure what the issue is. Is it due to the fact that I have an InitializeComponent() line in the my Sub New in Example 2? Note I have alot of code
EXAMPLE 1:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Paint(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) Handles Me.Paint
'Creating a new Rectangle as similar width and height of the base form

I am using Visual Basic.NET 2008. I was earlier a VB 6 developer. I found a (VB 6) code online which generates gradient colours on a form. It has a small sub (routine) which does the trick. If we pass red, green and blue values then form's backcolour changes and it appears like a gradient.Now that code is not working in VB.NET.i mean is there an easier way to generate gradient colours in VB.NET (2008)convert the code I have into .net specific so form's backcolour becomes gradient.I have attached a zip file which contains the code.

I have a form which I am adding a gradient to. However on this form I have aTableLayoutPanel (with controls) with the dock set to Fill. When it fills it covers up the form and the gradient on the form. Is it possible to make the TableLayout Panel and its controls colour clear or can you pass the same gradient color from the form to all the controls in the TableLAyout Panel (including the TableLAyoutPanel).

I am using a MDI form and child forms. Now I don't like the standard back colour of mdi form so I got code on the net which paints a gradient colour to the mdi. So far it is working okay.Now the problem is when I load a child form or close it or do a similar activity then it causes flicker in the mdi background. This gets pretty annoying at times and you see the background flicker.

I'm building an app that is a basic daytimer type of app. My problem is that I can't get the textbox(Textbox1) backcolor and text to change when I need it to. For instance, if there are events for January 12 and the user clicks on the Jan 12 link in the Calendar control, if there are any events in the SQL table for that day it should populate the appropriate times. The funny, or not so funny, thing is that I have another textbox named "TheEvent" that I can change the backcolor and text on with the code below and it works fine.[code]...

I have a problem with changing the color of a button (in vb.net). I have searched the web and plenty of people are willing to tell me HOW TO change the color but my problem is - it doesn't. I say it doesn't, it does when it has finished the rest of the code in the Sub. Can anyone furnish me with an explanation please as to why it doesn't happen when I ask? I'm using Visual Studio 2008
