Using Opacity Of A Form?
Feb 22, 2009I searched around google for a couple of hours to see if I could find anything on what I wanted to do.
Needless to say, I didn't find much. Basically, what I want to do is, when my main form loads, I want to load another form that sticks to the desktop but is transparent (Opacity) except for the text I want in it.
The only thing I could find is how to reduce the opacity of the form. I don't want the form to have a border or be able to be moved around by the user. I still want the user to be able to put icons over it, but not mess with it. I also don't want it to show up on the task bar. Kind of like a background in it's own right.
I'm not even sure if a form is what I need to do this. I imagine that it can be done.
*Edit: I found an example of what I want, but I'm going to fill my form with different info [URl]..

Controlling Opacity Of Form Shown In A Form?
May 27, 2009The end result we're looking for is a slideshow effect where a section of our main form shows a sequence of secondary forms which fade in/out on a timer.We can fade the forms in/out when they're shown individually, but the opacity setting doesn't seem to work when they're shown inside another form. What I've got, for testing, is code that should simply reduce the opacity to 10% after showing the inner form for a half-second, long enough to notice the reduction-except I don't see any change.
Dim f As New Form2()
f.TopLevel = False
Me.Controls.Add(f)[code]........
The opacity change takes effect without refreshing the form when shown 'stand-alone' but I've tried refreshing both the inner & outer form anyway, with no change.

VS 2008 - Setting Mdi Form's Opacity Within Parent
Feb 26, 2011I can't find a way to change the opacity of a mdi form within it's parent. I can change the parent form's opacity under properties, but can't change the embedded mdi form's opacity under it's properties. Opacity = 0.5 doesn't change the opacity of the mdi... works fine for the parent form. I was hoping that the embedded mdi forms functions would still be independent of the parent in order for me to change it's opacity.

Sep 3, 2010We have a big Form class that we like to split into peaces using partial class approach That could be done by manually modifying a project file, and adding MainFormPN.vb entry

The issue with this approach is when double click on this item in VS2008 IDE it shows new empty form, not MainForm UI. It looks like VS2008 does not support multiple partial classes for a Forms.
Creating A Partial Class For A Form?
Nov 30, 2010I would like to create a partial class for my form. I have a lot of events, and it gets messy, so I would like to break up sections into their own files. The problem: When I create a partial class of my form, say:
Partial Public Class Form1
End Class
Visual Studio decides I need another form for this partial class.

2. If I cant do that, how can I break up all the events in my form into different files?

Mar 19, 2010I want to make it so when someone places the mouse cursor inside the form the opacity is 100% but when it leaves then it drops to 75%. This is my code:
Private Sub Form1_MouseEnter(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.MouseEnter
Me.Opacity = 100%
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_MouseLeave(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.MouseLeave
Me.Opacity = 75%
End Sub
The forms default value is 75% and it works fine when I mouse over. However when the mouse leaves the opacity doesn't drop. What am I doing wrong?

Partial Entity Class With Shared Extension Not Associated With 'other' Partial Class In Client Using RIA Services?
Apr 21, 2011I have extended an Entity Framework 4 entity class with a calculated property in a partial class. This member is not available on the client to which the entities are exposed via WCF RIA Services.when using C# appears to be changing the extension of the partial class file from .cs to .shared.cs. I tried this with my VB.Net solution (.vb to .shared.vb) and got a long list of errors. I believe what happened is that the partial class lost its association with the entity on the client - it inherited from object rather than EntityObject.
My best guess is that this is related to the way that VB.Net handles namespaces.Each project has a 'Root Namespace' which is prepended to anything that is defined within a code file. C# has a 'Default Namespace'which is the namespace into which new types are placed by default - via a namespace statement within the file.The partial class is probably having the client namespace prepended to it which puts it into a different namespace than the entity with which it is associated on the server.Is there any means of extending an entity in such a way that those extensions are available on the client via WCF RIA Services and VB.Net?
VS 2008 Change Form Opacity Without Changing Control Opactiy
Mar 16, 2011I need to be able to change my form's opacity without changing the opacity of the components.
I really only need to do this on one form in my entire app, so this is getting a little frustrating
I've been researching for about half an hour now, trying to figure out if it's possible, but I'm coming up short.
I've seen some WPF examples and if it really comes to that, I'm more than willing to change the app from a WinForms app to a WPF app. I've made a WPF app before, so I'm familiar with it. But, I don't want to have to remake my entire project for this one form.
On that note, does anyone know if I can make a WPF form how I need it and just import it into a WinForm app? It doesn't seem possible, but it's better to ask than not. I'll look into this more.
VS 2008 : Setting The Form Opacity Programatically In The MouseEnter And MouseLeave Events?
Feb 14, 2010setting the form opacity programatically in the MouseEnter and MouseLeave events.The problem isn't with the actual events, the problem is that the events occur in places where I don't want it to happen.So in my project, I have a form with 3 user controls in it. The user controls are docked in the form so no actual space from the form is available to the user.
I have the methods:
Form1_MouseEnter(~) Handles Form1.MouseEnter, UserControl1.MouseEnter, UserControl2.MouseEnter, UserControl3.MouseEnter
Form1_MouseLeave(~) Handles Form1.MouseLeave, UserControl1.MouseLeave, UserControl2.MouseLeave, UserControl3.MouseLeave
when you enter the form, the form opacity is set to 1. And when left, the form opacity is set to 0.7 .However, what happens right now is obviously that when the user changes the mouse position from one user control to another, the form opacity flickers (turns to 0.7 and back to 1 really fast).
