Keypress Event - Displaying Images In Label
Mar 28, 2010
I need to display images when I press a key on the keyboard. I have a form with a textbox and a label on it. When I type a letter in the textbox it appears on the label. I got that part to work. But now I want to display a image in the label when I press a key on the keyboard. I have found some images on the internet that I want to display when I press a key on the keyboard. For example when I type the letter A in the textbox instead of A appearing I want an image of an apple to appear, or if I type the letter B a banana would appear, or if I type the letter D a dog would appear. I have been searching on how to this I came across the keyboard event such as the keypress event. Can I use a keypress event of the textbox to do this. Can I assign a certain image to a certain key on the keyboard, and have that image display whenever I press that key.

How can I set my application in VB 2010 to do something when I press a certain key on the keyboard? I heard somethin about the Keypress Event but i'm not sure that will actually work. I want a code so that my application can do the following things: If I press either the left or the right Windows Logo key on the keyboard, I want it to make Label2 visible. I already set the Visible value on false in Mybase.Load.

I've got a simple textbox and as the user enters text in the textbox I display a label below with matching words (to what they are typing). When they click the DOWN or UP arrow I highlight one of the words below in the label.

I couldn't manage what the matter is not even after searching. Here my question goes:I need to do a simple task (close my form on pressing escape key) and I use the following code:
Code:
Protected Overrides Sub OnKeyDown(ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs)
Select Case (e.KeyData)
'Close on Escape
Well , it works when I click escape my form closes , but.. if I have pressed by accident or some else matter any of the arrow keys (up , down , left , right) before escape and then hit escape nothing happens. I checked if any other key does that and as I see it does not.

I just want to ask why my KeyPress event is apparently not working. What I want is that when I press the letter m, the selectedindex property of my listboxes would change. Here is the code;
Select Case Asc(e.KeyChar)
Case 13
Try
tray.ListBox1.SelectedIndex = tray.ListBox1.SelectedIndex + 1
[Code]....
I also want to know what the "e.handled = true" is statement for. I set the KeyPreview property of my form to false and true but it's not working as well. the KeyPress event should be triggered regardless of the control within the form that is in focus.

I am trying to create keypress handler that will execute a line of code when Tab, Space, or Enter key is pressed or passed by the scanner gun while the control is in focus. I got it to work with space and enter key but with tab key, the cursor will just jump to the next tab stop without executing the code.

I'm trying to create an application that uses a PictureBox to display an image. I use the arrows keys to switch images and the space bar to rotate the current image. Since the KeyDown or KeyPress events don�t get fired when I click the arrow keys, I had to override ProcessCmdKey. It works fine, the problem is: the applications also has a few buttons and when I click an arrow key the image gets switched but the button�s focus change as well, worst yet, when I press the space bar, the image gets rotated but the button which has the focus gets pressed.

I am trying to add to items to a combobox by using the "enter" key. It does work when I add the first item, but if I manually clear the box and add another items it does not get added to the list.
(1) I click in the combobox and type "hello" and press the "enter" key
(2) I click on the dropdown arrow and see that "hello" is in the list
(3) I select "hello" in the box and erase it, item is still in the list
(4) I type "goodbye" in the box and press the "enter" key
(5) "hello" is still in the list but "goodbye" is not
Here is the code:
Private Sub CopyrightCombo_Keypress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles CopyrightCombo.KeyPress
If e.KeyChar = Microsoft.VisualBasic.ChrW(Keys.Return) Then
[code].....
if I comment the if/end if line and type "hello" the items added to the combobox list are: "h", "he", "hel", "hell", "hello" wich makes sens since the add items is run on every keypress? I know that my commands for adding items is good, I know that my keypress event is handled properly but not when I specify using the "enter" key.

I am using the Event Handler below for the Enter Key Press Event, it is running when ever any of the keys is pressed. This is not so much a problem when the app. is running, unnecessary yes. It is giving me problems when ever I am Debugging using Breakpoints. How can I change the Handler so it only runs when the Enter Key is Pressed, doing away with the If statement?
Private Sub Form1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyPress
If e.KeyChar = Chr(Keys.Enter) Then
'Different code blocks will run here depending on what
'TextBox or Label is selected.

As part of a program that I am composing, the user needs to enter a value by way of a NumericUpDown control on one particular form. Once this and other criteria have been evaluated, the program will then move to the next "step" of the program. If they use the spinner built into the NumericUpDown control, the event is fired on every change and that's all well and good, but if they double-click the value in the control then type the value in manually, it doesn't fire until the control no longer has focus. I can't depend that this might be the case however. Using the "KeyPress" event, I can in fact know when the control has focus and the user has typed but what I cannot seem to get it to do is to get the control to "read" these keystrokes as values until the control loses focus.

anyone know how to invoke the KeyPress event ? This code shows what I would like to do, but it simply calls the eventhandler and does not insert the text into the text box, so is not what I want/need.

I'm using VB.NET (2008) and .NET framework 3.5. In my application I've got an on screen button that, when pressed, sends "00" as the characters [via SendKeys.Send("00")]. I also have a keyboard that has a '00' key that sends "00", two zeros, when pressed. I'm picking up the keypress using the form's KeyDown event - it fires twice, once for each "0" and works whether the on-screen or keyboard '00' is pressed. There's also a singe '0' on-screen button and key on the keyboard that sends "0".
I want to be able to treat the "00" as a single event. I.E. in the KeyDown handler, if the character is a single zero "0", I would like to check the next character to see if it is also a zero "0". If it is then I can handle it appropriately, but also need to remove it (from the keyboard buffer?) so that it doesn't fire the second KeyDown event. If it's not a zero then it should be left to fire the next event in the normal fashion.

I've tired to use KeyPress event while in focus of my program's window in VB.Net, but it doesn't work.
For example I wanted to press the number "2" anywhere while in focus of the application and as effect the pixels of the window will change from 200,200 to 600,600 (hortizontal and vertical)

Now, I want to have a function that will block the keys that will make the input data invalid. [code]Now, my problem is, when I choose numeric, the textbox still accepts spaces, how can I block the spacebar?

I am making futile attempts to get the DataGridView control in a Windows Form to disply several rows of images. The images are all contained on the local disk. The names of the image files (all .JPG or .GIF files) are taken from an XML file. The XML is not the issue, since some of of the images actually appear.
The control has three DataGridViewImageColumn objects. Each column is set up to display a file called Blank.gif which is a transparent GIF containing a single pixel. Later, during the form's Load event, I replace each cell's Value property with the image that the XML file says should be in the column. The XML file contains the name of the file, and I use the System.Drawing.Image.FromFile() method to create the image object from the file name.
The behavior I am experiencing is that that only the very last row of images is properly displayed. The rows above it display the Blank.gif file as if they had never been assigned their intended images. If I change the code so that it will only iterate through three images (one row), all the images show up in the grid. If I then change the code so that six images are processed, only the second row of images is diplayed, and the first row shows only the Blank.gif file's image content. If I change the code to process nine images, the first six show up as blank, and the last three in the final row are properly displayed.
I have lost a considerable amount of my little remaining hair trying to fix this problem to no avail.
The code is as follows:
Imports System.Text
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Imports System.Xml

I'm currently attempting a project where I need to display a series of images from a database, in thumbnail form, then fullscreen when they are selected. Next/Back arrows will be used to navigate through different pages of images. These images will be across a number of categories each one with a different table in the database. It is very important that the user can change the images in the database.
Rather than have a number of different pages and each image designated to a picturebox, I was wondering how I could make it so the program just displays the next 6-8 images from the database in the same picture boxes, giving a message when the it reaches EOF, This way the number and order of the pictures can be changed just by changing the database.

I have a listbox displaying information about different workstations detected on a local network. Each line in the listbox is a different device. I would like, if possible, to display images on the end of each line (A green dot for one rule, a red dot for another, etc).
I have the images of the 'dots' as very small gif files.
