How To Make Window Never Dissapear
May 4, 2011
I want my form to never dissapear unless instructed to do so by code. I build a desktop gadget that stays there even when multiple other windows are open, but if the "Show Desktop" button is clicked on the taskbar it will dissapear completely (until another window, whatever that might be, is opened, in which case it pops up again).Take Windows Gadgets as an example. If you click "show desktop" they do not dissapear, they are stuck to the desktop and are constant, and only dissapear when you click the exit button on the gadget. Is there a similar method i can implement for my own form so that it never dissapears?

I'm making a space invaders type game. Everything is working except I'm not sure how to make the bullet dissapear from the form after it collides so it doesn't hit the second enemy line. I tried dispose, hide and enabled = false and visible = false. If I dispose I can't shoot again. Hiding it means it will still collide with the second enemy line it's just invisible. Also, my bullets only shoot as low as the lowest wave of enemies. So after I kill enemies it's like it's still colliding with an invisible enemy. After like 30 seconds the I guess "invisible" enemies glide all the way down the page and I can shoot as high as I can after that. I published and compressed my game into a rar if you want to see what I'm talking about and I will include the code. I've tried for like 3 days to get this to work.

If you have ever noticed in the Task Manager, when you right-click on the running task, you have many options which include 'Minimize' and 'Maximize'. Is there anyway to do achieve this in vb?

But the issue is, if i work with any other application in maximized mode then the popup windows is going behind.

The problem is I can hide as many window's as I want, but I won't be able to Show them again. I need a way to put all the hidden window title's in a list, so that I can select a window and unhide. I think it is called EnumWindow Function. I have Google'd for hour's but have no clue how to use it at all. 2. Is it possible to pause and hide Windows Media Player? Not a Media Player Control, an actual wmplayer.exe Also I know I did copy the:

I am writing a program that is navigated manly by using tabs, the tab panels (If that is what they are called) hold the vast majority of the GUI, only leaving space for the menue bar and a few rarely used window forms. So my question is this, what do I need to do/set to make the tab control (Or tab Panels) re-size with the window it is in when the user re-sizes the window?

I have a .NET WinForms application that has a single form that is set as TopMost so that it runs above all windows on the desktop.This form has a single button on it to launch some other application, such as:Dim app as Processapp = Process.Start("notepad")How can I then make the app TopMost above my application which is already set to TopMost?

I'm using Visual Basic 2010 Express.I have a form that can be minimized.There's also a tray icon.I've coded it so that if you double-click on the tray icon, the form's FormWindowState becomes set to Normal; this restores the form to where was before it became minimized, but the form does not become the active window on my desktop.
How can I make the form become the active most foreground window? I've tried various functions that I can think of but no luck yet. Tried searching with various queries to try and find the right wording but no luck.I'm new to Visual Basic - only started a couple hours ago.Probably something simple but I can't seem to find the correct function or anything.I have the form/window open, and then I overlap said form with a window of another application. When I double-click my app's tray icon, I want my window to become the active window, bringing it to the front, but can't figure out how

I have so far been able to write the program that glasses the windows I want (via a global keyboard shortcut).
I now need a way to replicate Glass2k's feature which makes glassed windows stay on top of all windows irrespective of which program I switch to (more like setting a WinForm's TopMost property to True. Is there any way of doing this in .NET?
I'm prepared to get down and dirty with DllImports and all so any suggestion is welcome as long as it is in VB.NET or C#.
