Mdi Child Maximize, Form Tiling And Alignment Of Controls?

Jun 22, 2010

my project is on the verge of completion and a large part of the credit goes to daniweb.now m stuck with a very annoying problm. ive googled the whole day but to no avail.m using visual studion 2005 and access 07.ive clubbed these three problms together cause i thought they might be related somehow...

1) i want the mdi child screen to be maximized. but on the first attempt only the control box goes to the top rite corner. however on the 2nd attempt it gets sorted out.ive tried to set the initial state to maximized but with same result. please help

2) whn the form loads it gives this tiling effect.. like the effect a tube light gives whn it is switced on...which is very annoying.
ive search for the result and some recommended to change the resolution of the user screen which is not acceptable to me.cant i change the resolution of my application depending on the user's resolution.

3) whn the form is maximized i want its user control or contents to change their alignment accordingly...anchor property only changes the size however the ideal thing will be to change the controls position w.r.t the container or form...

Write Text From A Parent Form To The Active Mdi Child Form VB 2010

Jan 28, 2012

It has to be a simple line of code but I do not know how to construct it. Using VB 2010 Express, I have a MDI parent form and many child forms. I want the parent form to determine what child form is active and load data into the RichTextBox1 on the child form. Each Child form has a RichTextBox1. The parent form gets its data by loading a file.

I am close to a solution but just can't get there. You will see in the code below, if I make a direct reference to a specific child form, it works great. What I want to do is to use the Active Form function to determine which form to write to. I have looked at the MS tutorial which gets me close.

Sub OpenToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender

MDI Child Maximized - The Child Form Shows Maximized In The MDI Parent But Behind The UserControl

Nov 12, 2010

Note: I am working with Visual Studio 2010 Professional. Note: There are a lot of MDI Child posts, but none (that I have found) that apply to my scenario... Scenario I have an MDI form with a UserControl docked at the top. The UserControl is for navigation and is ~50 pixels in height. When I show a child form with its WindowState property already set to 'Maximized', the child form shows maximized in the MDI parent, but behind the UserControl.

Refreshing DataGrid On Parent Form After A Child Form Has Updated DB?

Dec 3, 2009

Basically I have two forms - Form1 has a DataGrid on it (Infragistics) and in the double-click row event it creates an instance of the EditForm and passes along the UniqueId for editing. Once the user saves the changes (if they make changes) - I want the DataGrid on Form1 to refresh. Here is how I thought I could get this to work ... I create a public property called RefreshRequired as boolean. Before unloading the EditForm it sets this property to true. Then Unloads. This continues the code in Form1 (which showed the EditForm as modal) but RefreshRequired is still showing as False? Why isn't my EditForm able to set the property?

FORM 1
Private Sub grdList_DoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles grdList.DoubleClick

Update Open Child Mdi Form Textbox From Parent Form?

Feb 3, 2012

I have a date selector on mdi parent that updates a property when date is changed. When I open a child form, it grabs the property just fine. However if I change the date again after the child is open the date does not change on the child unless I close and reopen the form as expected. What would be the best way to automatically update all open child forms when the date is changed on the parent at anytime? running a timer to parse the date property is impractical.

Updating Parent Form From Dataset After Editing In Child Form?

Aug 24, 2009

I have two forms....Mainform is filled with controls that are databound to a datasource.....then I have a child form that is used to edit data from parent form.......the data that is displayed on the child form uses the Filter() method of the binding source to display data only for the customer selected......

The child form has the standard OK and CANCEL buttons set up as dialog result.......after I edit the content in child form, the changes are displayed on the child form correctly......but when closing the child form and going back to the parent form the changes dont appear there unless I restart the application.....I also tried adding the tableadapter.update/fill method in the 'OK' dialog result event handler and it still doesnt work......

How can I make the changes take effect on the parent form without restarting the application?

VS 2010 Child Form Tell Parent Form It Is Closing And Send ID?

Apr 2, 2012

I have a parent form that has a list of items and each item has a unique ID. The user can open one or many of the items in a child form (it is set up in a tabbed MDI), but it can only open one instance of each item at a time.

In the parent form, I was going to make a collection (or something like that, maybe there is a better way) to keep track of which items are open in the child forms. I need to know when each child is closed so that it can be removed from the collection and reopened at a later time. I was thinking that when the child form closes, it somehow does something (like raise an event) that tells the parent form to remove the unique ID from the list of current open child forms.

My questions are, is this a good way to do this and I am pretty sure I would use the form closed event in the child form to update that parent form, but as well, I didn't know if this is the best way of handling it.

If raising the event is a good way, are some examples on how to do it out there? I found some for controls, but not while the form is closing/closed.
