Interface And Graphics :: Check Which Mouse Button Clicked?
Mar 18, 2011I can tell when the user clicks on my picturebox. Can I tell which mouse button was used? Left or right?

View 1 RepliesI need to visually moves the cursor using keyboard keys.
1) I need to get the mouse to where the button is
2) Simulate the mouse movement to the button from whereever it is
3) and simulate a button click.
Only after I select a button I can start drawing on my form. I have a code here, when I hold the Ctrl key and press the arrow keys, the mouse will start drawing straight lines. But what happen when I need to use controls like buttons, comboboxes etc.?
Apologies as this has probably been answered a million different times a million different ways already. I'm trying to control the mouse. I wish to move the mouse to a given pixel position (x, y) and cause a click. I don't want this to be limited within a form, as I want to control another application. I'm using VB 2005.

View 3 RepliesMy tile-based map editor project. So far, it works really awesome. Here, look at a picture: [URL] And the screenshot is outdated: Now I got the Pencil, Rectangle and FloodFill tools too!, the tilesets are from that popular (well, not so popular) game engine called RPGMaker.
Currently, this is how the map is structured:
One ArrayList represents the X coordinates.
One ArrayList in each X represents the Y coordinates.
One ArrayList in each X,Y represents the tile.
The tile is an ArrayList containing three elements:
The Image name (Tileset01 in the screenshot), the X coordinate in the image, and the Y coordinate in the image. Those coordinates are from the TILESET01 image, not map.
Getting the idea?
How do you locate a tile in the map when it is clicked?
First I get the cursor's position on the map picturebox, then convert it to a multiple of 32 (the tiles are 32x32, yes), divide the position X and Y by 32. The results are the indexes I need to get to the tile I clicked.
That method works just fine for me.
When the map picturebox invalidates and needs painting... When that happens, I iterate through each X and Y arrayList. When I get the arrayList that represents the tile, I use it to draw on the map.
For example:
Iterating X arrayList.... step 8......
Iterating Y arrayList..... step 3.......
Found arrayList with three elemetns: ("Tileset01",32,96)
Draw image on the map picturebox, source is "Tileset01" on rectangle (32,96,32,32)... draw it on map picturebox's point (8 * 32) and (3 * 32)
And so on.
Now you understand how I am working with my map editor, how I am locating clicked tiles, and how I am drawing it. Everything goes fine, except for one problem: At some point, the user might want to make a 500x500 map.
That means, an arrayList with 500 elements representing the X tiles. Then an arrayList with 500 elements for each X tile, representing the Y tiles. Then an arrayList in each X,Y pair.
Then multiply that result by 5, because there will be 5 drawing layers. How am I supposed to handle such huge maps?! My app explodes when I set the map dimensions to 500x500! 500x500 is the max setting allowed in my app. I also know that 500x500 map editors are possible, because I have seen others before. With great performance.
I use check boxes and place them on my user interface (See attachment)I have coded the code for "select all" button :
Code:
Private Sub checkedall_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As_
System.EventArgs) Handles checkedall.Click
Dim chkboxes, outs As New Collection()
[code]....
I could not seems to check all the boxes. Is there something wrong with it? I am not sure how to assign array to check boxes.
I am starting to develop a card game client for a CCG a friend of mine and I are creating.
I have 2 forms Client.vb and Hand.vb linked with a module.vb
In essence when the app starts up I see the client. I can then click the "Hand" button and the Hand Window is shown as well.
What my goal is is to have it so that when i hover over the card (picturebox) in my hand form that it displays a larger image of that card in the preview box (Another picture box) In Client.vb
I have everything working except when i actually mouse over the image in the hand form it creates an error:
Error:A first chance exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in CCG 2.0.exe
The code in the mouse hover event:
Code:
F1.PictureBox2.Image = F2.PictureBox1.Image
Im Almost certain im going about this the wrong way but I cant seem to figure out any other way...
PS.I have attached an image to demonstrate what Im trying to do...
I have a NotifyIcon (named TrayIcon). When I right-click it I get a menu. When I left-click it I want the form to be shown when it's minimized or hidden. But I can't find a way to get the latter done.
Private Sub TrayIcon_MouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TrayIcon.MouseClick
If e.Equals(MouseButtons.Left) Then
Me.Show()
End If
End Sub
When I debug, "e" shows "almost" same value ({X = 0 Y = 0 Button = Left{1048576}}) as"MouseButtons.Left" (Left{104875}) in the quick-watch window, still the Me.show is passed. I think this has to do with the X and Y, and "MouseButtos.Left" is of the type "System.Windows.Forms.MouseButtons" and "e" is of the type "System.EventArgs", but I have no idea how to get the right comparison.It's partially working though. When I leave out the if statement and only the Me.Show() is left, both right and left-click make the form pop-up. With the if statement, it never shows up.

View 7 RepliesI'd like to check for all colors in an image. I've already came up with this:
Code:
Dim lst As New List(Of Color)
Dim img As Bitmap = System.Drawing.Bitmap.FromFile("C:image.jpg")
For x = 0 To img.Width - 1
[code]....
Unfortunately this needs to sweep through all the pixels, and it's EXTREMELY slow... method to get all colors in an image without sweeping through all pixels?
I have been trying to discover how to make the contents of a form expand or retract in response to moving its borders by grabbing them with the mouse, or by use of the 'Maximise' or 'Restore Down' controls.The explanation in �Help� concerning TableLayoutPanel, Panel, Anchor and Auto size doesn�t help much, especially as it I can�t get it to work.

I plan on using a scrollbar for, well, scrolling an image. The image is 200x500, however, the only visible area is 200x250.
So I set the max value to 250, and the min value to 0. The idea is that if I drag the scrollbar's button to the bottom, 250 pixels will have moved for the image, right?
But wait, the scrollbar's button is.... very small. And the scrollbar is actually pretty long. Is there a way to make the scrollbar's button longer?
I was wondering if there is a way to have a button/label that would change the selected item color of the combobox from the standard black into a certain color (say green), but not change all of the items' color into green. This is for a to-do list type of application where a user clicks the button to signify that the current item is finished..This is what I was thinking (not in VB code) When button1 is clicked, combobox1. selecteditem. color = green

i just need this or else none of my program will work.
This is VB 2008, under Vista. I can't seem to change the background color of a button without the gradient disappearing.Strangely enough, you can even set the background color to itself and the gradient disappears. How do you keep the gradient but change the color?
Here's an example:

Button1.BackColor = Button1.BackColor ' This should do nothing!

I have a form with buttons, and the user can change the colors of the buttons with the color dialog box for fun:
Button_Play.BackColor = ColorDialog.Color
There is a reset button to put the colors to how they were without any special coloring, but I can't get them to go back to how they originally looked.They go to gray in the middle, instead of the nice shaded blue/gray style. I have tried a few different things:
Button_Play.BackColor = Button.DefaultBackColor
Button_Play.BackColor = SystemColors.Control
Button_Play.BackColor = Color.Empty

View 3 Replieshow to enable the "import" button when at least one of the checkboxes is checked.I have two buttons : "Deselect all" and "Select All" for the checking of the boxes, to import the specific files' data they want to Excel. (the files are in listbox, and the checked boxes is for selecting the files' parameters that they want to see in excel)
One option:When the user deselect all, the "import" button is suppose to be disable to prevent the user from importing the files' data parameters.
2nd option:(if i do not want to disable the import button) or show message that they have to select at least one box and at the same time, prevent the import button to work if there's no checked checkbox. So my deselect all button code :
Code:
CO2checkbox.Checked = False
NH3checkbox.Checked = False
DBcheckbox.Checked = False
[code]....
but the button still remain disabled if I click "unchecked all" button and then checked at least one box. how do I enable it?And how do i...show error message and prevent the files' data to be imported when the user click "import" when there's no checked checkbox if I choose the alternative option of using message to alert them without disabling the button and yet prevent importing of data?
PS: If I did not click "deselect all" button but click the "select all" button, the import button is enabled and working.

View 2 RepliesI'm developing a GUI for a touchscreen, so when user wants to scroll he/she uses their fingers. Now the thing is that the scrollbar width (with the vertical scrollbar) IS adjustable but the button stays the same height and isn't sufficient for a finger. So the question is : Are the buttons in the scrollbar allso adjustable in size/dimensions.
