I'm a beginner at using vb. I'm having a problem with making group boxes visible. I have two buttons: btnLevel1 & btnLevel2. When user clicks btnLevel1 GroupBox3 must be visible and GroupBox4 must be hidden. And when user clicks btnLevel2 GroupBox4 must be visible.
[Code]....
In visual basic.net I have been playing around with groupboxes and things of that nature, is there any way to group items into a box, say, buttons, and use the groupbox as a container to move / hold all of its contents while not being visible in any way? (no decoration perhaps?)
I've tried making the groupbox invisible but that makes all the items within the groupbox invisible as well.
In my card game program, I have used 4 main GroupBoxes to act as dialogue boxes. Some contain additional GroupBoxes to house such things as RadioButtons, TextBoxes and CheckBoxes.Software places them when and where needed, so I usually move them apart in the Design screen to keep them all visible at once. However, with each new GroupBox I added to the program, their behaviour became increasingly vexing.In the design window, they are not allowed to overlap, or they will either partially or completely disappear. When they disappear, I have to find them with the Properties Viewer (when selected, the 4 sizing blocks appear and I can tease the drag symbol to appear).Worse, when my program is running, a GroupBox left in the Design mode in an "unfavoured location" (for lack of a better term) will refuse to appear when called.
I have single stepped past the code that positions the GroupBox and makes it visible and I have noted that the top and left positions are correct, but when I let the mouse hover over the word 'Visible' in the line "GroupBox1.Visible = True" the popup reports it as False.There is nothing I can do at run-time to make the GroupBox appear. I must return to the Design window and try moving it to a more favourable location.
I am adding a several controls to a groupbox dynamically, but I can only see one of them. I am changing the location for each one just a little so so they should all be visible. When I count the rows in "dtOptionGroupOption it returns the correct #.
'Starting location for Options.
Dim intOptionLocationX As Integer = 0
Dim intOptionLocationY As Integer = 10

I'm making a project that has a bunch of different types of calculators in the same tab within a tab control. To organize these calculators, I put each one in a groupbox, there are about 5 or 6 in all. When I was finished designing all of them, I placed all the groupboxes in the spot they needed to be, but once I started creating the events for them to be visible or not visible there are a bunch that don't show up. I think it has to do with the fact that VB thinks that the groupbox is part of another groupbox that isn't visible so it doesn't show.
How can I go about only showing a single calculator at once in my tab?
In Form1 I have a SplitContainer with Panels.In SplitContainer1.Panel2 i have a Form2 (Inherit) and a GroupBox1.

I have placed several PictureBox Images of different colored dots(which represent lights) on an image of a Christmas Tree. I can make the lights randomly flash using a randomGenerator and a Select case statement. However, the code is very long. There are 67 lights on this tree and the code is 71 pages long. There has to be an easier way to do this. So far I have tried the following with two images of lights just to see if it would work and it does not work:
Dim picLight(2) As
Boolean
For intX

The question pretty much says it all, I've tried setting the backcolour to transparent in the properties section, but it didnt seem to work. I have a picture behind the groupbox that I need to show through it. Is there a specific way of doing this?

View 8 RepliesThis is for my really advanced game maker. Which is really working well. But when I went to remake the game player and speed it up, I quit painting the map on the form and the char. So my idea now is the make a picturebox on the form contain the map image and then make another picturebox on top of that one. Now the first pictreubox contrains controls the user created, very useful thats why I switched to a picturebox. And the second one contains the char,anyway, The one that contains the char needs to be able to show the controls behind it, or my game maker wont work. The char image its self is transparent but I need to make that picturebox show all the controls behind it so that if that picturebox moves onto a user control they can still see it beneath the char.
View 1 RepliesI have a button that when the user clicks slides a GroupBox out. I intend to start with the groupbox hidden and with a width of one and when the button is clicked to make the GroupBox visible and increase the width with a for.. to.. next counter.
However when I run the code all that happens when the button is clicked is after a short time the groupbox appears full size. So the program doesn't "refresh" the view of the GroupBox while the for..next statement is looping.
How can I make the GroupBox expand smoothly and visibly?
i have a sort of problem when i try to add some linklabels in my groupbox. I used this
Me.Controls.Add(Groupbox3)
Groupbox3.Controls.Add(FlowLayoutPanel)
I can only add 4 linklabels no matter how big is the groupbox, i tried autoscroll but nothing. How can i do to store minimum 20 linklabels in a groupbox? Here is the whole code i used:
Imports System.Net
Imports DevComponents.DotNetBar.Controls
Imports System.Windows.Forms[code]....
Is there any way, maybe with a specific reference to put a control that records what plays wmp activex and to save somewhere on your computer?

Here using VB .Net 2008. I seem to be having trouble getting group boxes to appear when I click a radio button.
For example:
CODE:
This indeed brings up the first radio button however I have other groupboxes underneath which with the same code will not appear when the radio button is checked.
Eg:
CODE:
The second groupbox does not appear and is directly behind the first groupbox. The Top code doesn't seem to be working either.
a common VB.NET class should look like the following:
Public Class MyClassName
End Class
Besides, I have already seen, if I remember correctly, all of the import statements visible just like in C#:
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Linq
Public Class MyClassName
End Class
How to make these default imports visible by default in VB.NET using Visual Studio 2008?Is there some setting or the like in the options I shall set?
I have this code for hiding a table and a cell in aspx, backend vb.net
Code:
For Each row As HtmlTableRow In tab_a1.Rows
If row.ID = "a1" Then
For Each cell As HtmlTableCell In row.Cells
cell.Visible = (cell.ID = "a1")
[Code] .....
Now instead of tables I'm using tags. How can I use similar code and make div's visible and invisible?
Generally speaking, a common VB.NET class should look like the following:Public Class MyClassNameEnd Class

I have a form with six picture boxes on it. Each Picture Box has a button underneath it. When the button in clicked, a "Label" and "Textbox" appears. My question is, how can I close the currently open "Label" and "Textbox", when I click another button. I have a working code below, but it's not efficient. As you can see, I will have to list all labels and textboxes on the form. Is there a way to identify all labels and textboxes without naming them all. [code]...

View 1 RepliesI have written a VB2008 program in which I want to put graphics output in a PictureBox but keep the PictureBox hidden until a "Show Graphics" button is pressed at runtime. I have done this by setting the PictureBox's Visble property to False at design time and then adding a line in the Button Click code (before the main graphics code) to make .visible = true. Now when I press the button, the picture box becomes visible but stays blank. I have to press the Button a second time to get the graphics to show. It doesn't matter where in the Button code I place the PictureBox1.visible = true line, the result is the sdame. WHY ? Other VB Controls, eg RichTextBox will stand being made visible and then display output with only one click of the button, why is PictureBox different ?
