Make Form Snap To Certain Heights When The Form Is Resized Vertically?
Jun 12, 2012I have 3 PictureBoxes on a form that are tiled on top of each other. the form has a minimum vaule of (502, 416) and a maximum of (502, 1080). because the user can select from a MenuStrip to display '1', '2' 0r '3' PictureBoxes at once '3' being the bottom and '1' being the top PictureBox. What i need is when the user drags down the form it snaps to the next PictureBoxes position, so it goes down in blocks this is what i have so far which is pretty far from working.
If Me.Height <= (1079) Then
Me.Height = (732)
ElseIf Me.Height <= (732) Then
Me.Height = (424)
ElseIf
End If
I also thought i might be able to figure it out if i new how to create a variable like this
If Me.Height <= (1079 to 733) Then
Me.Height = (732)
I know that it isn't the correct syntax but it's kind of the idea If you can make sense from my not so good description and point me in the right direction/code example i will be most grateful :)

View 1 RepliesHow To Detect If Form Resized
Feb 20, 2011I am trying to discover how to detect that a form has been resized, or rather, that a form is being resized. I need to call a sub to handle the resizing of text in relation to the new size of a form or control. I have found that setting a minimum height and width works behind the scene so I figure there must be something watching the form size but can't find what or where it is.
View 3 RepliesCertain Controls Won't Paint Until Form Resized
May 20, 2010In 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?
View 6 RepliesMDI Form - How To Disable FrmMainChild To Be Resized
Apr 12, 2005i created 1 mdi parent form as frmMDI and 3 child forms as frmMainChild, frmChild2 and frmChild3. When the frmMDI is loaded, it will call the frmMainChild and set it to maximize. At here, i treat the frmMainChild as the base form of my application. in the frmMainChild, i can call other forms like frmChild2 and so on.
and now, my problems are: 1. how to disable the frmMainChild to be resized, restored? i just want to make it maximized only. 2. when i call the other child forms from frmMainChild, i notice that it always maximize the child form. can i make the child form to be in normal window state?

View 5 RepliesInterface And Graphics :: Dock Or Anchor Controls So That They Resize Themselves Accordingly When Form Is Resized
Feb 12, 2011we all know how to dock or anchor controls so that they resize themselves accordingly when a form is resized. It works fine till we have rows of controls on left and right size of the form. But what if have three columns (Columns as in visual sense. I'm not talking about any column control containing other controls) of controls? For example a form having a bunch of controls in the left side, a bunch in the middle and a bunch in the right. There may be a few more bunches in the middle. Now while resizing the form, I want the controls to resize accordingly as well as change their positions to make space for the previous bunch of controls that are resizing.I mean, while the user increases the form size horizontally, the controls of the second bunch should resize and at the same time they should move right because the controls of the first bunch are increasing horizontally too. When the user decreases the form size horizontally the same thing should occur in the reverse order.I can manage it somehow using nested splitcontainers but that's too cumbersome. I would like to know if there's some better way to achieve it, like setting some property etc.?
View 3 RepliesVS 2008 Invalidating Inherited Controls When Parent Form Is Resized Or Moved?
Jul 19, 2009Pretending I have a class that inherits off Control, how would I handle the parent form's Resize and Move events within the control? I have a painting glitch that happens when the form is resized or moved. Right now in the form I just have:
vb.net Private Sub frmMain_ResizeMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _ Handles Me.Resize, Me.Move Me.Refresh()End Sub
But this can't be the proper way to do it, considering Refresh() invalidates all children (will be slow and flashing if the form has lots of controls). I want to basically do the above code inside the control.
Edit:This is the glitch after a resize of the parent form:
And this is what the button is supposed to look like:
Also, I experience this issue if something like a message box is dragged over top of it. How can I remedy these issues by forcing a repaint?

In Visual Studio 2008, Visual Basic.My script always begins with:function Init (Quest)Then from here a user would input a quest name, type and zone in a interface using windows forms.[code]I would also like to have these available on the UI but wont generate unless a user checks a box to add them or there is a box already for them but wont step into the code unless the user enters something into the box.Is there anyone that can explain how I would go about doing this. Or maybe some kind of visual studio plugin that will help me out.
View 2 RepliesVS 2008 - Generating Custom Code For Windows Form From User Input
Mar 30, 2009How to generate code from user input. In Visual Studio 2008, Visual Basic. My script always begins with:
Code:
function Init(Quest)
Then from here a user would input a quest name, type and zone in a interface using windows forms.
Ex:
Code:
RegisterQuest(Quest, "Kill Zombies", "Heritage", "Firestorm")
end
This part a user would enter in his interface what would an NPC say if accepted.
[Code] .....
What I need is a few text boxs that a user can input "Kill Zombies" or whatever they like and when they push a generate button it will create a file with a .quest extension. All of the code remains the same except for the quotes that would be the user input from the interface. Basically everything in quotes can be changed by the user in an interface. I have created my own functions for when a user accepts, deny and complete a quest. The user just needs to input what should happen then click a generate button to throw it all together as a .quest file to be saved in his or her quest folder for the server to call on later.
I also have many other functions like:
AddQuestRewardFaction --- (Quest, Faction ID, Amount)
AddQuestRewardCoin --- (Quest, Copper, Silver, Gold, Plat)
AddQuestStepObtainItem --- (Quest, Step ID, Description, Quantity, Percentage, TaskGroupText, Item ID(s))
Etc
I would also like to have these available on the UI but wont generate unless a user checks a box to add them or there is a box already for them but wont step into the code unless the user enters something into the box.
