How To Stop Auto Scrolling When Control In Panel Gain Focus
Dec 14, 2010
I have set a scrollable control's autoscroll to true. What do you do when you don't want a scroll to occur? For example, suppose you have a RichTextBox and a button side by side as below:
Notice that "button1" has the focus. If you click on the RichTextBox to give it focus, the scroll bars will scroll until the upper left corner of the RichTextBox is in view.
But what if, for whatever reason, you wanted to keep button1 in view? How would you do that?
I have a VB.net form which has two webpages embedded. The webpages have a 5 second auto refresh built into the HTML header as the information is constantly changing.
The problem I have is when I pull up a secondary form, I lose focus to the 'Main' form everytime the webpage refreshes.
Is there any way to stop the webpages autorefreshing in the form and I will build in a refresh command into a timer I already have in place and then I can start and stop the refresh at will.
Unfortunatly I cannot amend the source code of the HTML as this is required for a different process elsewhere.
I have a form where in it there's a webbrowser control doing some autonomous tasks. I leave it running in the background but, due to the navigation in the webbrower control, the window pops-up in front of all others and this is really annoying when Im doing something else.
Is there a way to disable the form from auto-focus or whats doing? Even if I hide the form using Hide() it still is able to remove the focus from whatever window has it.
I'm having a tough time implementing my own custom control that makes use of scrollbars if needed. The whole control itself would not be scrollable and only some portions of the custom paining would be scrolled, so the AutoScrolling capabilities of ScrollableControl would not work for me. But, I'm having an extremely difficult time in implementing a professional looking solution, where as the control gets resized, the scrollbars resize proportionality to be able to show a specified area.
After scouring the articles online I have come up with this design for a winforms based touchscreen app that needs smartphone like scrolling. The app itself will run on a tablet laptop or touchscreen desktop.I put everything I want to scroll on a panel. Set autoscroll to true (which will show scrollbars)Now put this whole panel inside a groupbox.Shrink the groupbox until the scrollbars are hidden (visually hidden, not visible = false)
Now the fun part I am stuck at.I think I have to handle the mousedown, mouseup & mousemove on the panel to set the autoscrollposition so that when someone touches the panel and drags, it does it's scroll magic. Please help fill in the few lines of code in below method stubs. The msdn doc on autoscrollposition is very confusing since it returns negative numbers but needs to be set to positive with abs and what not.

I have a custom UserControl that contains just one TextBox. When I set the control to Enabled = False, the TextBox is disabled but the control is not (control still fires the Enter event).
How do I ensure that the UserControl will not receive focus?My Enabled Property Looks like this:
Private _Enabled As Boolean = True Public Shadows Property Enabled As Boolean Get Return _Enabled End Get
A panel with enabled scrollbars has many buttons. If I push the tabulation key, focus navigates between buttons.When a partially visible button has focus, the panel scrolls itself in order to completely show the button.
Im hoping to create an auto clicker which had variable speed control, one button to start and pressing space to stop the application. When start is pressed i want it to click 2 or 3 different locations on my screen if this is posible with about a 1 second delay between each pointer move.i could really use some help with getting started or even better a link to an already created application for this.
Im making a web browser (well I only want one page) but I want to stop the highlight scrolling, I've stopped the scrollbars and scrolling with the space key but highlighting still works. I did a bit of research and one said to put a transparent image over the top, but when I put a transparent background It turns grey so I can't even see the web browser.
I have achieved for the most part what the users want, which is to be able to have multiple MDIChild forms open at once for example the Child form displaying the data and the Child form displaying the user's manual. The child forms can be resized to some extent and can be moved around within the Parent form. When the user clicks on the title bar of one of the Child forms or selects a menu item opening a new Child form the newly opened Child form or the Child form on which the user has clicked the title bar gets focus.
I also have one Child form which will not scroll with the mouse wheel even when it has focus. Actually there is very little of the form that is not ocvered with controls. It has about 8 group boxes with several otehr controls within the group boxes. When I click on a list box within one of the group boxes the list box will scroll through the values, but when some other control gets the focus or the forms itself has focus (via clicking on the form's title bar)the form will not scroll with the mouse wheel. The other Child forms do scroll with the mouse wheel.The AutoScroll and AutoSize properties of the Child form are both set to true. I also have VerticalScroll and HorizontalScroll visible and enabled properties sey to true
I am currently working on a web browser using visual basic and i think i am stuck at this point where i have a panel and i need to scroll it when mouse hovers a button .. actually if i can find how to scroll the panel without using the scroll bar , i think i can modify it for using it with mouse hover.

I have a panel on my main form that has vertical scrollbars enabled. I also have a custom control I have built that is the same width as the panel and has a height of 45. I store multiple of my user controls in an array, and I want the panel to display these controls like a listbox... one stacked on top of the other. So I loop through the array and add each control to the panel at coordinates right under the previous one.This works fine, and as long as I use the the mouse to scroll down and expose the controls I'm interested in and then clicking on that control, things work great. The problem comes in when I want to use the arrow key to move down to the next control. If the next control is visible on the panel, it works fine.
I have a program that adds controls on the fly to an auto-scroll panel. When the panel is scrolled (viewing the bottom of the panel for example) and a control is added, it looks like it is added assuming the top left corner of the panel is still at 0,0 when in fact it may be 0,500. To see what I am talking about, create an empty "Windows Forms Application" project and insert the below code into it.
Friend WithEvents Panel1 As System.Windows.Forms.Panel Friend WithEvents btnAdd As System.Windows.Forms.Button Dim ButtonCount As Integer
I have a panel on my winform that is one third of the form size. I need to insert 4 datagidviews side by side into the panel. The user should be able to scroll horizontally to view each DGV. I can position the DGVs side by side within the panel but it does not scroll the whole horiz way to see all the DGVS.
I'm making a program that updates a ListView filled with processes every second. After updating, it scrolls back up to the top. How do I stop it from doing that?
I've got a panel in windows forms (Visual Studio 2008) which has a background image (A book shelf).When scrolling the image flickers and does not redraw so looks awfully - I've tried creating a new object to use double buffering but this has no effect,
I want to make a panel scroll horotzional with a scrollbar. The panel will have images only (Maybe a label under each picturebox), and I don't have enough space for all the images, so I want to make it scroll horotzional.
When a panel's AutoScroll is set True then it will add scrollbars for navigation of the entire size of its content. What I want is to be able to set the vertical scrollbar to go to top or zero so its contents top controls will be viewable.
I have a read only multiline text box I'm using as an output box for a continuous string of data, when my data gets to the end of the last visible line the scroll bar activates and my text vanishes past the bottom edge of the text box and I have to manually scroll the text box to get back to the end of my data. is there anything I can do to make the text box scroll up so I always see the end of the data stream being past to it?
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click TextBox2.Text = TextBox2.Text & TextBox1.Text End Sub End Class
Above is a really quick and dirty bit, take input from one textbox and output to the other using a button click or some such. After so many button clicks get the text box to scroll without doing it manually with a scroll bar, so you always see the latest entry.
i have a number generator which creates a number then a new line followed by another number. its set on a timer that goes over and over again until a desired number is reached. the only problem is that the numbers go off the screen and a scroll bar appears but stays at the top. is there a way to set the value of a scroll bar on a text box and if not how would i tie a vscrollbar to a textbox or richtextbox.
I need to limit a Textbox and DataGridView to only enter text in the fixed size of the cell/textbox on the screen. So I have limited the cell/textbox so user can not change it size. Both allow multiline and wordwrap. cell/textbox is sized to accept 5 lines of data (wordwrap or enters) This is like an online form.So the text enter will be printed so I can not allow scrolling in the cell/textbox.
How can I stop the scrolling of the text inside the cell/textbox.
Also : if the user Paste into the cell/textbox how to truncate text if larger than display area.
I am using datarepeater to display rows of information from database. When i click a 'save' button and i would like to loop through the rows of data in repeater. The code i am using is able to do all these. The only problem i encountered is at the Interface side. When i am looping the data-repeater. The selection 'frame' (refer to the picture point as 'A') is moving from record to the next record and scrollbar is auto moving as well to scroll to further down until the last row where looping finish.Is there anything can be done to remove the selection 'frame' and stop datarepeater from scrolling while looping the datarepeater.
Is there a more efficient/easier way changing the backcolor of a control when it has focus and lost focus? Let's say I've got 10 text boxes. Right now I would have 20 different events...10 for Enter event and 10 for Leave event. Of course, entering would change the back color to "green" and leaving would change it back to "white".
I am working on a data entry type form and I want the enter key to move focus to the next text box. I've got that working great except that the focus is moving to the label that is, in sequence, between the text boxes.
