I currently use this code to move a control I have created (JobBox) around a form with the mouse.[code]...
I had thought I could use the MouseDown eent to take the control out of the panel and make it belong to the form and then check on the MouseUp event that the location of the control is within one of the other panels.
I am trying to make a panel move with the mouse.
Just like the iPhone where you press down and move your finger up or down and the items on the page move.
I am tring to do the same type of affect with the mouse and a panel.
When a user clicks the left mouse button and moves the mouse up or down moving the panel up or down. but I want to be able to click anywhere on the screen.
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 12 RepliesI'm currently debugging a form that sets a flag when the mouse button is pressed, then clears the flag when the mouse button is released. As long as the mouse button is pressed, the user can move the mouse around and a few things happen depending on where they move. One of the things that happens is that a timer starts, or stops, and a few things change color depending on the mouse position. The timer starts when it should, then stops when it should, but once stopped, it is not re-starting when it should. I can verify that MouseMove events are getting through, because coloring changes as I move the mouse, as it should. This would be a simple thing to debug...except that it requires the darn mouse button to be down, and it uses the mouse move event. Anybody who has put a breakpoint in a mouse move event handler knows the issue: There are THOUSANDS of them. Worse yet, since the mouse button is necessary for switching to the IDE, as well as setting a breakpoint (technically, a keyboard shortcut could do this if I could shift focus), I can't wait for the problem to happen, then switch to the IDE and set a breakpoint to see what is happening then.Does anybody have any tips or techniques for debugging in mouse move events when the mouse button is down and has to stay that way? As it is, I'm going to have to write some funky code into the method just so that I have a place to get a breakpoint when I need it without breaking on every one of the mouse move events.
View 7 RepliesIf I put this code in the form, the mouse will be moved once. I want it to "freeze" the mouse at the point that its moved at. If I put code in timer (which it is now), the mouse will keep searching for the color, so the mouse moves around like crazy. How do I change my code so that it will "freeze" the mouse once it finds the color? [Code]

View 10 RepliesI am trying a little demo project to create my own Caption Bar. Basically i have a form with a panel docked to the top.
You can use the mouse to drag the panel around (which moves the forum) Problem is the cursor is always located in the upper top left. I am trying to move the form around but to leave the cursor at the point it is currently at on the panel
My code so far is below
#Region "Point Variables"
Dim LOC_Form As New Point(0, 0)
#End Region

I am dragging the panel from the middle, but the form moves to the cursor point. I have tried calculations like Cursor Position - Form Location etc but cant get it right

View 2 RepliesI am currently making a VB.Net game for my end of the project, but I have found myself in a deadlock. I was wondering how to make labels move up and down in my panel by themselves at a set speed. Also left and right by themselves. I've tried a couple different methods but none seem to work. They either lag or I can't seem to set where there bounds are.

View 10 RepliesI have setup a small app to track company info and purchases, etc. I decided to move a panel with textboxes from Form1 to Form2. I did not move any code and after some thinking on it, I decided to move the panel back to form1 and continue with my original plan. Trouble came when I tried to run the app. The ide displays it perfectly but none of my code is working. Here is what I noticed ...
My original code from a textbox ...
Code:
Private Sub TxtCompany_GotFocus(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
If TxtCompany.Text <> "" Then
TempCompany = TxtCompany.Text
TxtCompany.Text = ""
End If
End Sub
This used to work before I moved the panel. I went back to txtCompany's events and doubleclicked "got focus" to start a new event to see if it was the same as what I already had. It displayed this ...
Code:
Private Sub TxtCompany_GotFocus1(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TxtCompany.GotFocus
End Sub
It's like I somehow created a dup of panel and lost it's original status and now the ide wants me to make a copy of the code. How do I get the ide to see the panel and it's contents as the original?
Is there a way to just move the mouse up and down a little, like a little shake, every 5 minutes or so? I've tried to find ways to do this but I'm very confused. I'm fairly new at visual basic but I think I could understand it if someone gave me an example code with an explanation.

I start the Timer when is mouse down and I stop it when is mouse up, but when stop and start again formlaction is 0 again. And I can make it work. Label1 is just to see how many PX the mouse is moving. The buttons are just to see the movement of the panel.
I need to be able to find out if the mouse has been moved, if the mouse hasn't been moved in a minute then use Cursor.Hide() to hide the mouse, if the mouse is moving then I want the mouse to be shown.
To get the Position of the mouse use this: Cursor.Position.X Cursor.Position.Y I don't know how to do this
I need to know the status of the mouse whether it is moving or being idle. How can I do that?
