I've got a simple assignment for my adv vb.net class at college and the only thing I'm stuck on is how to move a label around the form at run time with the mouse. Here's the code I have so far[code]...
I have an MDI application which uses fixed sized forms. I've started to change the forms to sizeable and anchored the controls so they move when the form is resized. If the child form has a menu this jumps onto the parent menu (as it always has done) but all the controls move up the form at runtime and leave a space at the bottom of the child. If I change the form in design mode to cut through the bottom controls i.e. so the form doesn't appear tall enough, it corrects itself at runtime. Is there another workaround as it looks misleading in the designer.
The position of my labels won't remain fixed during run time whenever i've added a background picture to my form. What should i do so that my labels remain fixed at one position at run time. I've tried locking them and also locking the form but the labels still move a few pixels from their original position.
i wanta a label to move from right to left just so it looks good just for a grafic and stuff is that possible without a timer cuz i dont wanta like make my user's computer so slow with all these timers
how to move a label down (such as the lines on a road). Also, once it gets to the bottom, it will reset to the top. I'm going to speed it up at higher speed, and slow it down at lower speeds. I just need to know how to move a label when the timer ticks. Here's what I have so far:
Public Class Form1 Dim speed As Integer Private Sub Button1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
The piece of code below works fine. The label is moved from left to right, however, it doesn't start again from left when it reaches the end of the window, instead it goes from right to left. Please could anyone tell me how I can modify it so that it starts again from the left whenever it reaches the right end of the window.
I need a control, that can have an image and some text, and be moved by the user. It looked like label plus the code at this link was the answer. url...The label won't move, and when I try to debug the code in the link, the IDE dies.[code]
Is there any way you can move a panel using the arrow keys during runtime?and is tehre a way of popping random objects in a game. Like you have this spaceship moving and your "Alien foes" or whatever attacks you. So you want them to pop up randomnly every few seconds or so. How?
I want to move a label across the form every X milliseconds. How do I do that? I understand how to use a timer, but don't know how to move the control. Here is my
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick Label1.Location.X = Label1.Location.X + 10 End Sub "Expression is a value and therefore cannot be the target of an assignment."
I am using vb.net,is it possible to change the size or place of a button at run time.I meant we can click and drag the button to increase the size or move?
I have the following code, which I use for in another control and it works fine, although the other control is a custom control that inherits from Control.
Public Class MoveableLabel Inherits Label Const WM_NCHITTEST As Integer = &H84 Const HTCLIENT As Integer = &H1 Const HTCAPTION As Integer = &H2 [Code] .....
i have a timer on my form and was wondering how to get my timer to count down from 30 to 0 and when it gets to 0 it shows a message box saying you have failed?.Also how do i get a label to move up and down and left to right?
I am trying to write a quiz in Visual Basic 2010 .NET and I have come across a problem while putting in the textbox the user inputs the answer to. The Textbox obscures the upper half of the first line of text.
Public AnswerTextBox As New TextBox Public stdFont As New Font("Calibri", 12) Public Sub New() AnswerTextBox.Location = New Point(100, 100) AnswerTextBox.Size = New Size(200, 30) [Code] .....
I'm trying to place a Label at runtime like this:Form2.lblMaxLandingWt.Location.X = Form2.Panel1.Width * .65but I get an error "Expression is a value and therefore cannot be the target of an assignment"
I'm trying to change the existing 10 labels color on my form at runtime they are named this way (label1,label2,label3...label10) however i haven't bin able to successfully do it so far. Here is the code:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim LabelArray(10) As Label For x As Integer = 0 To 9 Dim strLabelName As String = "Label" + x.ToString [Code] .....
I'm trying to create a bunch of labels during runtime that will be "inside" a picture box, so when I move them, if their new coordinates are outside the box's dimensions they wont display, or if they're right on the edge of the box only half the label will be visible etc.
I thought label.Parent = picturebox would work but it doesn't seem to do anything, and Google keeps telling me to set the label's container to the picturebox - which sounds right, but maybe it's no longer a VB.NET thing since the Container property seems to be Read Only.
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick curtime.Text = TimeValue(Now) 'curtime is label
I want to change the underline property (to true) when the mouse is over it (either mouse hover. enter, or move - i don't know which is best to use.Then change it back using the form's mouse over/hover/enter property.So how would I change it?
I have a form with some labels. If the labels equal certain text, then I want the font size of the label to change.For example, if the text reads "apple",I want the font size of the label to be 16.If the text reads "banana", I want the font size of the label to be 8.This has to occur during runtime without any clicking of the label.I have an idea of the code I want to write in order for this to work, but I need to know where to put the code for the labels.I cannot put this under Label_Click or Form_Load.Where can I put this code so that it works for the labels during runtime?
I'm developing a Windows Forms Application in Visual Basic .NET with Visual Studio 2008.
I'm trying to compose fonts (Family name, font size, and the styles) at runtime, based on user preferences, and apply them to labels.
For the sake of both a simplier user interface, and compatibility between more than one machine requiring to use the same font, I'll NOT use the InstalledFontCollection, but a set of buttons that will set few selected fonts, that I know to be present in all machines (fonts like Verdana).
So, I have to make a Public Sub on a Module that will create fonts, but I don't know how to code that. There are also four CheckBoxes that set the styles, Bold, Italic, Underline and Strikeout.
How should I code this? The SomeLabel.Font.Bold property is readonly, and there seems to be a problem when converting a string like "Times New Roman" to a FontFamily type. (It just says it could not do it)
Like on
Dim NewFontFamily As FontFamily = "Times New Roman"
Is it possible to edit a labels' font and size etc at runtime? If so how would I do this? apparently it is read-only? Im basically learning about decision structures at the moment and would like to change a label font based on a case statement?
