I am creating a game using VB .net i called it neo tetris battle "just for game development practice, experience and learn something new". it somehow similar to facebook's tetris battle gameplay and I already made a progress on the games logic. Now here's the problem everything works pretty on my pc BUT when I try to deploy it on a lower specs pc it lags or creates delay on movements. The game is just simple and it only use simple graphics but why it lags?
View 8 RepliesI just finished my first project. Just wanna ask, with this code:.....
Code:
Private Sub PrintDocument1_PrintPage(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs) Handles PrintiTicket.PrintPage
e.Graphics.DrawString("COUNTER 17.Your number is " & iTicket, TextBox1.Font, Brushes.Blue, 50, 50)
End Sub
I was able to print the text that I want, but is it possible that it be printed in three lines? i mean on the first line, the text "Counter 17", and in the second line with a smaller font size, "Your number is" and on the third line with a bigger font size the "& iticket portion"?
I know that time delays have been covered before around almost everywhere. however a method that forgoes forcing the GUI to become temporarily non-responsive, is all but a myth, or at least to my findings. i have the need for a GUI program to delay before the next command, however using the current method, detailed following, it causes the desired effect however it dose make it much less polished as when you click anything else on the GUI it goes un-responsive for the directed time. [Code] make a sub called say Tdelay( milseconds as integer) and have it run a loop as many times as the milseconds variable indicates and each time making the thread delay for 1 milsecond and then update the GUI/form in some way, then re-loop.

View 4 RepliesI am using VB 2008 & Access Databases for creating WinForm Applications.

I tried to use "Draft 10 cpi" font which come to available me after i installed a correct driver for my Epson printer. which also helped me overcome this problem. however it wont be the scenario with all my clients i.e. they might have different printers having different Make with different drivers installed. i have tried to open such project on there PC but the printing wont come in Draft instead the fonts get expanded too much & the print wont come right.
I basically have an application that generates reports in a .html file, I use a .html file for the ease of making tables and formatting text.Now I would like to introduce a way of printing the reports from my program. Because I use a .html file, the formatting would not the correct if I was to print it directly from my application (as far as I know). For this reason, I would like to print it just like my web browser would have in order to keep the tabular data intact and the text formatting.
View 1 RepliesI'm creating an application which has an scheduler to print and it checks if there is a pending job on the print queue before it prints the next file. I use a timer which checks if there is any file to be printed on my database. Example, the timer ticks and selected 10 files to be printed, it should print the 10 files 1 at a time, if there's no print queue, that's the only time the next file should print. I think another timer is required which will keeps on checking if print queue is done. How will i do this?
View 2 Replieshow to count the lines in textbox1.text (with multiplelines). I don't need to count each character. I only need to count each line from top to bottom in textbox1.text (multiplelines) and I will use Label1 to display the numbers.
example:
1-pauljaones
2-tommyperrry
3-marktoms
4-Jonessmith
5-paulwhite
Obviously this is 5 lines and that's what I need to count.
I have written a simple script to get a bunch of lines from a text file (they will be filenames eventually) which are split by new lines and puts each one into an array..

The only thing I can do for now is either use the substring function to remove the first character from all array values after 0 but I don't like that because it's messy and what if the split "works" as I want it to one one of the lines and knocks of the first character when I don't want it to.
I am setting up printing (to a printer or file) in my application, and it doesn't seem to print out any new lines that I specify. Here's some of my printing

When I print the output to a PDF file using PDFCreator, it stacks all of the letters onto each other rather than creating new lines at the places I've specified.

What i need to do it read the value into a variable, then a new value and compare the two with the % function, how do i read a value and maybe add a delay before reading the new value (and it being overwritten) and doing the calculation?

I'm working on a game that plays MP3s at various points using the Windows Media Player component and it takes a long time to load and play MP3s. Would anyone know how to decrease the load time? I've considered multi-threading but I'm not sure how I would do that or if that's even the proper direction.
View 2 RepliesI would like to enquire how I can set a delay in between chunks of code.For example, after some code which interacts with a server, I am supposed to get a corresponding information from the server before it is appropriate to proceed on to the next part of the code. As the server response is not immediate, therefore an arbitrary delay is needed.What is the proper code format that I need to add?
View 7 RepliesI am dealing with a web application that includes VB.NET (UI) & VB6 middleware (DLLs).One of our installs, a Win 2003 Server/IIS 6 environment shows a 2 minute delay after the application login page.The application has been added to Trusted Sites & is not in a DMZ. It uses Forms authentication.
I am looking for ideas on what might be causing the delay. The code is difficult to access and I would like to leave that as a last resort. I realize it's not much to go on but I am hoping someone here has run into a similar problem.

My dilemma: I have a POCO: "ReportSource" that is generic. I have a user control wrapping up some report building logic. My user control defines a ReportSource property but it will ultimately be the job of the page that calls the user control to assign that ReportSource property. How can I define the property in my user control without specifying a T? Btw, I tried (just for larks) to make the user control generic... That ended badly. public ReportSource<T> ReportSource {get; set;} (Note that I've tagged this as C# and VB.net... C# is my norm, but I'm having to deal w/ legacy.
View 2 RepliesNow there's a user "A" who has 100 followers...now what i want to do is whenever user "A" submits an article in the website all his followers should get an email with the article link...that is okay i can do it.
Problem: Now, there's a submit button on the page which stores the article in the DB and sends email to the followers...as there are many followers it takes a lot of time sending the emails...so the page keeps showing loading msg till all the emails are sent..how can i send all the emails asynchronously ??
i mean after the article has been submitted ...the emails should go automatically to the followers without putting the email sending function in the click event of the button....hope am not confusing you folks.
can i do something like store the article in the DB , redirect to the article page , start sending emails in a batch of 10 per 10 mins automatically...this process should start as soon as an article has been submitted by an user.
