View 2 RepliesScreen Blanks After 1 Min Of Processing (of Excel File) / Refresh Or Freeze Screen To Avoid Blank Screen?
Jun 29, 2011BTW this issue occurs in any MS office program when the VB.Net (or even VBA) is processing information.Example: In Excel, a worksheet is displayed on the screen. I start either, a VB.Net or VBA procedure and within 30 seconds the Excel worksheet (previously displayed) blanks out. In both VB.Net and VBA,ScreenUpdating = False. My expectation is that the previously displayed screen would stay static as if I left my desk to get a cup of coffee; came back and the same ole Excel worksheet was still there?Of course, setting VBA Screen Updating = False accomplishes two goals: 1) speeds up processing and 2) saves the user from seeing unnecessary "garbage-processing" steps.Why does VBA or VB.Net ScreenUpdating = False not freeze the screen at the time of its invoking?

Aug 20, 2010I wanted to make a screen recorder (not screen capture) program, but I am not entirely sure how to get it started. I have seen many videos and things on how to make one, but all of these just take multiple pictures and then don't compile them into a movie file, and I don't want to take many pictures (unless that is the only way possible.) I am using Visual Basic 2010 Express and I have looked at the Windows Media Encoder, but I can't seem to figure out how to use/implement it (yes, I have downloaded and installed it.) Maybe I can use some kind of ActiveX control?

View 3 RepliesSoft Edge Wipe Using GDI
Jun 18, 2009I'm trying to draw some text using GDI (i.e. using a graphics object). It is done using the basic method of creating a path, adding a string to it and using a brush to fill it.
The only tricky part is that I need to apply a soft edge wipe to it. To describe what I'm trying to do better, I've uploaded an example done in photoshop: [URL]
What is the best way of achieving this? I need to be able to control the mask that is creating the soft edge - i.e. the position of the gradient, the width of the gradient etc.
Ideally I'd like to do it using the graphics object and not dipping into .dlls - but at the end of the day I'll do whatever it takes!!

Doubling Image With Edge Detection?
Mar 16, 2011I have a function to do edge detection that works fairly good with one pass and without using a convolution filter. The only thing is that it will shift by one pixel the resulting image when I runt it from top to bottom and from left to right. I can live with that. Just a curious thing that I got when I ran it several times in a loop to see the effect of applying it several times on the resulting image.A deformed image appears at the beggining and then, bit by bit it splits appart and after shifting it the width of the original image I get a double image. I wonder how the computer keeps track of the first image and is able to separate the two after several iteractions.I know that in electronics you can have several signals in a circuit and you can separate them with frequency filters, or you can simultaneously download several files with the same modem aand the two computers will synchronize each one, but this surprissed me.
Here is a simplified version of my function
Private Function Preview(ByVal Thumb As Image) As Image
Dim bm As New Bitmap(Thumb)
Dim X As Integer
Dim Y As Integer

I have tried with more complicated images and with larger sizes, but to make upload smaller I includes these two images of simpler and smaller size. A view of the GUI and an animation of the process:reload to see the animation.

View 1 RepliesDraw Control Past Edge Of Form?
Feb 24, 2010I've got a usercontrol that's a simple rectangle with three labels on it. It's essentially triggered to give a caption to an image when the mouse is moved over it. As I feared, adding the control to the form (or any container on the form) restricts drawing the control to the region defined by the container. I tried increasing the region of the form and the container, but it still didn't draw outside the container.
So my question is: Is there a way to make the control display partially inside the container/form and partially outside it, or is there a better object type that will do what I want?

View 6 RepliesHow To Position Buttons Relative To Edge Of Form
Jul 18, 2012I would like my 'quit' button to appear in the bottom right hand corner of my menu screen, but it seems that every computer in the office has a different sized screen, different size ration (some are widescreen) and different resolution. When I deploy my program, the quit button may appear off-screen (the user has to scroll down to find it) or it may appear half way across the screen on a widescreen laptop for example. If I set my form to 'maximized', is there a way to position a button relative to the bottom right hand corner of the form? Also, on one maximized form I have two datagridview's side by side. Is there are way to automatically set each one to take up half of the available form width, so they fill the form nicely?
View 2 RepliesVS 2010 : Form Snapping To Edge Of Desktop?
Oct 10, 2011I've got a borderless form that I'm handling the MouseDown, MouseMove & MouseUp events to do the dragging and re-sizing which I have working just fine but I started thinking how neat it would be if I could have the borderless windows snap to each other and to the edges of the screen(s), this part I'm stuck on. I've got them snapping together just but and I've got it snapping to the edge of the screen but I have a dual monitor set up at home and I can't move it to my right side secondary screen with the code I have now. I'm attaching a sample VS2010 project with only the relevant code for this.Eventually I might add in the snapping to the desktop edge or to another note window's edge when resizing too, but that's not my focus right now.

Game Programming :: Detect A Collision With The Edge Of A Form
Oct 2, 2009I am currently investigating vb gaming and have set up a test project to move an object; it moves fine.

Measure Distance Between Two Or More Image After Edge Detection Feature Extration
Nov 23, 2010I need to read 10 images in 1 folder and do feature extraction onto 10 images.Does anyone can suggest any good edge detection by using C++ / VB.Net / C# language? After I can successfully detect the edge and write a new image file (in this case is generate 10 new edge detection filtered images, only black and white line image) within the same folder.Then lastly, I do not know any distance measurement able to calculate distance between each edge detection filtered-images (not the original image) and show the result in graph.How can read those images back and get the data of the edge?Keywords are edge detection and distance measurement.

Mar 2, 2011This question may be off-topic. If it should be posted in another place (even on another board) For some given curves (see sample below) I have to quantify whether the red dots in some regions of the curve are more dense at the upper or lower edge of the curve. Which algorithm might be adequate to perform this task? The curves are constructed from measurements. (No mathematical formula behind it.) Every data point has two dimensions: A value in the range 4000-7000 and a second value 0-255.
View 4 RepliesCompare Each New (small) Overhead Map Section To Larger Map / Find What Edge It Fits On And Copy It Over
Mar 6, 2009I am working on a program to match overlapping images together to make one complete image. This isn't for panoramic purposes, it is from a video game generated overhead map, so there is no perspective issues to deal with and the overlapping images (gained from screenshots while a player moves) should be pixel perfect (still running tests to verify this, but lets assume they are pixel perfect at this time).
1) I need to compare each new (small) overhead map section to the larger map, find what edge it fits on, and copy it over.On other forums I have seen people suggest taking the bitmap apart in the form of an array of colors, or 3 arrays per image for r, g, and b. I am wondering why this is done instead of directly going to the bitmap object and using GetPixel. Is an Array lookup significantly faster? Speed would be an issue with my program, I would like to do this match as fast as possible, and the overall map could become large, even if I keep making new map sections to manually paste together later.So, faster to loop through a graphic with getpixel, or faster to go through 3 two-dimensional arrays with r, g, and b, or faster to go through 1 three-dimensional array with rgb all inside it?
2) The bitmap object that contains the overall map will keep getting larger. What is the best way to resize that bitmap dynamically?I am thinking of just making a new, larger bitmap when I get near an edge, then using getpixel and setpixel to copy over the old bitmap to the new one. Is there a faster way to make a new, larger bitmap object containing the old one with the graphics class? I admit to finding the graphics class somewhat confusing in how methods on it affect the image object that is defined as it's surface...or something. There might be a faster way with graphics and drawimage, but is that really faster than a getpixel/setpixel loop? Finally, if I do store the graphics data in arrays instead of actual bitmap objects, would redimming the array be the best way? If I need more room at the 'beginning' of the array I would have to make a new array and then copy the data over shifted. And this might involve 3 arrays if it is best to use one each for r, g, b.

.net - Taking Photo Of Screen - Take A Picture Of The Entire Screen, Not Just The Focused Window?

At the moment it's at the far top, left of the screen. When the screen size varies I want it will stay in the middle for all shapes and sizes. Like :
<div style="margin: 0 auto; width: 500px;"></div>
But this is for web pages using HTML and CSS.
