View 2 RepliesI'm trying to achieve "disabled" affect of my form when running some process. I thought the best way to implement this was to somehow paint an overlay on top of the whole form with some gradient light gray color. But it seems like using the Form Paint event paints under all child controls. Is there a way to achieve this effect? I think I have seen somewhere else where some sort of snapshot is taken of the whole form and converted to grayscale but I need the form to be sizeable still.

I have seached through the net to find a solution to customize the scrollbars on a datagridview. I found some stuff, but this seem to be not very easy.
View 1 RepliesI have been updating a program that was made in VB5. It contains several lines of code that are drawing lines and arcs, for example:
Arc(picCameraImage.hdc, sngOldX - sngCircRadius, sngOldY - sngCircRadius, sngOldX + sngCircRadius, sngOldY + sngCircRadius, sngOldX, sngOldY, sngOldX, sngOldY)
I have figured out, or think to have figured out, that the new way of doing arcs and lines does not require the HDC, so that problem is solved. The problem I am having now is that with the new way, every example I have found created a sub that does the drawings, like:
Public Sub PictureBox1_Paint(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.Paint
Dim radius As Integer = 20
Dim diameter As Integer = radius * 2
[code]....
Is there anyway to pass values to this sub? I have to draw several arcs and lines and the values for them are different everytime. I would like to create a sub that would be used in every spot the old program used the old arc command and pass the needed values through it.
I need to resize a bmp like the resize works in MS Paint - that is with no antialiasing
Anyone know how to do this in c# or vb.net ?
I've used this example to create a paint application in vb express 2008, however the example can only open and save .pic files! How can I make it so that my application can open and save a commonly used image type, such as bmp, jpeg or png? I would imagine it can't be that hard, just saving what has been drawn in the picturebox into an image file, or loading an image into the picturebox.
I have tried to make a load event by using some simple code I've made:
If OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
PictureBox1.Image = Image.FromFile(OpenFileDialog1.FileName)
If Not (PictureBox1.Image Is Nothing) Then
m_Picture = Nothing
PictureBox1.Invalidate()

When I simply delete this section of code, pictures open fine however of course then I cannot draw, which defeats the purpose of my application. So how can I open and save images with my paint app?
[url]... I managed to figure out how to paint a bitmap on a form. With some slight modification, I managed to make it so that the position of the bitmap can change based on key strokes.However, for some reason, it only does this once. It can't be that the xPosition and yPosition aren't responding since I rigged two labels to tell me their values and they are changing. So how can I make the bitmap respond.[code]...

Whenever I load or close child forms or other form (for that matter) then there is flickering in my MDI form. The flickering maybe because the form may be getting painted with gradient or so. Now this flickering is really noticable and I need to solve this. I am pasting the code that I am using to paint my MDI form. If you guys think the code is in efficient then let me know. Or if there is any fix or other way to go about it then I would like to know.

View 8 RepliesI am currently working on my own listview control, and I was wondering if it was possible to get it to not draw the text for the listviewitem when the listview is in report mode? What I have been doing is putting all of my information in the tag and leaving the text property blank so it doesn't paint. Andis there a way to paint the background of the column headers? Because It only allows me to paint the actual column header? Here is what im talking about for the background of the column headers.
View 1 RepliesIn VS 2005, I have a form with a few controls (comboboxes and labels) that won't display when the form loads. The controls show up as transparent "holes" in the form, through which I can see my desktop. As soon as I move the form, or left-click on the title bar for about a second (without moving the nouse) the controls render correctly.What do I need to do to get these controls to display correctly, short of forcing a resize?
