Listview Not Showing Icons When Launched From Desktop Icon
Oct 10, 2009
I have created a project that uses a listview associated to an imagelist (LargeImagelist, I have set the size as 100 x 75 and 32 bit depth), that displays information from a database along with an image from the image list. My listview is set to tilemode so that I can control the size of the tiles to get two columns of six. The image list is populated when the form is loaded from all the images in a specific folder, this part is working appropriately as I can get a picturebox working consistently that references an image from the imagelist.

I need to obtain a list of desktop icons and add them to a ListView. I'm currently doing this:
[code]...
It points to the direct path the icons should be located under the user profile. However, for some reason I've yet to determine, not all of the icons are in this directory.

I have a list view control and for each item I set to display an icon it will change the icons for the other items that already have icons, to the most recently added icon.
Here is my code.
vb.net
Dim ext As String = Strings.Right(e.Item.Text, 4)
Dim fileandparam As String = IconsInfo(ext).ToString

I have developed a program using vb.net 2008 that will allow you to open another program at a specific time. This is just a beta and that is why 2 way of telling the program when to close the program that opened and this program.Anyway this is my issue when I get everything set up to open the program once it opens i don't have focus on the main form or the notification icon. (When the program has not lauched the program I am able to use the notication icon. (notification icon does the follow: restores the main window to normal view and exits the program.) Could some help to get the notification icon to work when the program has launched.[code]

I have an issue with the icon displayed on the desktop. I have used the project's properties, application form and used the dropdown menu under icon to associate an Icon to the application. I have done this loads of times before and it has always worked.

Is there a way in VB .Net to add specific icons to a desktop like "Computer", "Network",Recycle bin", and "User" files? I want to be ablse to use it for XP and Vista, but Vista as a main priority. In vista you can Right Click the desktop select "Properties", click "Change Desktop Items" in the left hand corner, and then select the icons you want. I thought that maybe there is a way to do it by calling that, or maybe a way to do it in the registry.

I am currently developing some application that's useful for me. And now I have one doubt about something.. My form has 15px Height and 100% screen Width, and it's located at 0,0 coordinates. This means that vissualy, it's little small.I've seen many applications that for preventing this kind of visual method from being positioned above desktop icons and windows, they manage to "Displace" everything down.[url]...

I'm practicing using the setup and deployment project. I can add a shortcut to the desktop and give it an icon to display without problem. Many applications have a choice of icons to display for the desktop icon; when we right-click on the icon and choose "change icon" there is a box that appears giving the user a choice of different styles of icons to use for the programme. My question is: how can I give the user a choice of icons to be able to select which one to display? Do I have to make a dll file or is it another method?

I've always had to use a program that does this stuff for me, but I'd like to just make my own program that does this. I've already got the individual bitmap images of the 3 sizes (16x16, 32x32 and 48x48) for the icon file and I usually find use some shareware program to create the icon file from the multiple bitmap images for me but I'm wondering if it's possible in .Net to create an icon file (*.ico) that contains multiple physical icons in it.

I'm sick of my EXE files only looking decent in one view in explorer (ie List or Tiles etc) because I can only figure out how to specify one icon file for my projects so it has to be a specific size and if its too big it looks rubbish at smaller sizes in explorer, and vice versa if its too small. So how can I embed more than one icon file and make it automatically select the correct one to display in explorer depending on the view? I believe you can store more than one icon in an ICO file, so do you have to just combine the various size icons into one ICO and then explorer will automatically select the correct sized on? Or is it something you have to do within the VB project?
