Possible To Make List Box Item Height For Item Depending On Amount Of Lines That Item Contains?

Jan 1, 2012

I have a list box on the form which functions as a copy/paste. When you copy something, it is automatically added to the list box as a "clipboard helper". Here is the problem,however: if the text is more than 1 line, the list box does not show all the text.It ends up looking messy.So getting back to my question, is it possible to make the list box item height for an item depending on the amount of lines that item contains?This is a one line sentence in the list box and should take up one line.This is a multi line sentence in the list box and should take up two lines for item height.

ComboBox - How To Resize Dropdown Area Based On Item Length

Jun 11, 2011

Since we have to resize the combo box dropdown area based on the combo box item length, used the drawstring() to add items to combo based on the item length. This gave us the below issue: On moving the cursor on the drop down area the font color and the background color are back hence the text is not readable (i.e. the whole item becomes black).

Below piece of code is used to achieve this,
Private Sub cboClient_DrawItem(ByVal
sender As
Object,
ByVal e
As System.Windows.Forms.DrawItemEventArgs)
[Code] .....

We tried changing font color and the dropdown area backcolor on selecting a particular item. How to make the text readable (i.e. the font color should change while if we scroll on the item).

Add Item In Combo?

Jan 9, 2009

I'm having some weird trouble with adding a new value in a combobox.The combobox has a datasource which is a bindingsource.The combobox's list is filled from a different table through a different bindingsource. Combobox.valuemember = "ID" and Combobox.displaymember = "Description".When a user types a value in the list, I want to add the new value to the table which is the source for the list. (Which is not the problem, but I don't get that far) The problem is that when the user types a new value in the box, it totally disappears as soon as the user tabs out of the combobox. So, in the event combobox.Validating the combobox.text property (nor any other property) does not show the new typed value.

Combo Box - Assign Value To Each Item?

Dec 20, 2010

assign a particular value to each item in a combo box? Or, alternatively, some similar control? Specifically, I want a drop down list to select from a list of countries. I then want to get the ISO 2 letter abbreviation for the selected country. I could have a section of code like this

selected_country = cmb_country.SelectedItem.ToString()
if selected_country = "Afghanistan" Then
country_code = "AF"
ELSE IF selected_country = "Aland Islands" Then

[code]....

but this will get rather tedious.Is there an easier way to do it? I would like to be able to assign a value to each line in the list, like

Afghanistan, AF
Aland Islands, AX
Albania, AL

then get the value for the selected item. Is this possible? If not with a combo box, then any other control?

Hiding An Item In A Combo Box

Jan 15, 2010

I am using VB 2008 Express Edition.

Say I have Combobox1 with items (1)Breakfast (2) Lunch (3)Dinner
and I have combobox2 with items (1)Apples (2)Bananas (3)Grapes(4)Oranges

Now when I choose Breakfast in combobox1, I want user to see all 4 items in combobox2. But when I choose Lunch in combobox1, I only want user to see (1)Bananas(2)Grapes(4)Oranges in combobox2, hiding Apples.

Does anyone know a code where I can hide an item in a combo box depending on the condition?

If Eval Compare Item 1 And Item 2 If Item 1 ="0" And Item 2 > "0.00" = Display Result

Jan 21, 2012

Is it possible to compare 2 dataitems and then display the result depending on the 2 values using if eval at run time?I have a ListView with databound controls. 1 is RedemptionChoice and the 2 is CashBack.When 1 reads "0" and 2 reads > 0.00 the output should read AUTO I have read many comments online and most point to create a new function within code behind but have found it impossible to implement on my own.I tried this as a test on the actual page:

<%# If(Eval("CashBackRedemptionChoice").Equals("0") & Eval("[CashBack]").Equals("0.00"), "Auto Cashback"))%>

2 needs to be greater than 0.00 for AUTO to be displayed. Hence I know this would not work. Just trying to give an example of what I would like.

Automatically Selecting First Item In Combo Box?

Sep 1, 2009

When my application starts, it scans the computers registry for COM ports and adds them in the combo box. The combo box first index is just a blank, and the second is COM1, COM2,...COMn. What I want to do is by default, I want my program to select the first COM port in the combo box, so in this case, COM1.

I know I have to use the PORTNAME property of the serial object, but not sure how I would set that equal to the 2nd index of the combo box.

C# - Refresh A Combo Box Item In-place?

Sep 17, 2009

The ComboBox Items collection is an ObjectCollection, so of course you can store anything you want in there, but that means you don't get a Text property like you would with, say, a ListViewItem. The ComboBox displays the items by calling ToString() on each item, or using reflection if the DisplayMember property is set.

My ComboBox is in DropDownList mode. I have a situation where I want to refresh the item text of a single item in the list when it gets selected by the user. The problem is that the ComboBox doesn't re-query for the text at any time besides when it loads up, and I can't figure out how else to do what I want besides removing and re-adding the selected item like so:

PlantComboBoxItem selectedItem = cboPlants.SelectedItem as PlantComboBoxItem;
// ...
cboPlants.BeginUpdate();
int selectedIndex = cboPlants.SelectedIndex;

[Code]....

This code works fine, except for the fact that my SelectedIndex event ends up getting fired twice (once on the original user event, and then again when I re-set the property in this code). In this case, it's not a big deal that the event is fired twice, but it's inefficient, and I hate that. I could rig up a flag so it exits the event the second time, but that's hacking.

Combo Box - Action When Entered Item Not In List?

Jan 6, 2011

I hope this question is sufficiently clear I'm trying to port an application that I wrote in Access VBA to VB 2010 express and SQL Server. In Access, when the user enters an item in a combobox that is not in the item list an event is fired ("not in list") from which I can set up records in related tables. How can I do the same in VB? I can't see any equivalent to the "not in list" event.

To be more explicit with an example. An address consists of Street, e.g. "23 Acacia Drive", Town, e.g."Wilton" and County, e.g. "Oxfordshire". When entering a new address, the form first requires a street entry in a text box. Next, a Town entry in a combo box which is populated with towns already in the address table. If an existing Town is selected the (previously disabled) County field is automatically filled from that town's County as read from the database. If a new Town is entered the County field is enabled and the user either selects an existing County or adds a new one which is added to the database using similar logic on the not in list event.
