I have a form in VB which is scrollable (using autoscroll) and when I currently click 'print', it only prints what I can see; it takes a screenshot of the viewable information.
Here's my code:
Private Sub btnPrint_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnPrint.Click
Dim settings As New System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings
sPrintForm.PrinterSettings = settings
settings.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = True
[Code] .....
How to print the whole of the page, including the areas that can't be seen? I've already tried using:
PrintForm.Print(Me, PowerPacks.Printing.PrintForm.PrintOption.Scrollable)
And that didn't work.
i am working on Scrollable form, when i am trying to print this form with PrintForm object its printing only the showing part not all the form this the code which am using.Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click Me.PrintForm1.Print(Me, PowerPacks.Printing.PrintForm.PrintOption.Scrollable) End Sub

How can I make a form scrollable?
View 2 RepliesI need to increase the size of my form and allow it to be scrollable vertically but I cant set my size any larger then 780 I have auto scroll set to true and from what I thought I understood I should be able to make the form longer and it would be scrollable Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong ?
View 15 Repliesim trying to make the form Dockable in the desktop on the righ side. I mean i can do this i can stick the form on the side but all other application are not seen in the full window coz my appz is still on the top and others appz under it.Size of the form is 200x1024, it is like administration stripe.So i would like to make other Winows in the system ended on the edge of my application. Is it even possible in VB?There is other way i guess to use some of the scroll(collapsible,expader) windows to the side of the desktop would do it as well but i dont know how to ?
View 1 RepliesI am an experienced programmer but mainly in 4GLs and assembly. Relatively new to VB programming, especially GUI applications. On a form I need to create an area that will be used to display *extremely* large TIFF images. typical image size would be 2000 pixels by 100,000 pixels. Typically I will NOT want to display the entire image at once, so the area will need to have scroll bars and/or other methods to scroll/pan around the image.
I have read about and tinkered with the bitmap and picturebox objects, including some threads about several different ways to implement scrollbars. However, I see that the picturebox size is limited to 32K pixels in both dimensions. I suppose that I might be able to copy various portions of the bitmap to the picturebox depending on scroll position, but that seems potentially quite slow and cumbersome. Can an expert developer who is experienced with these types of issues regarding the following:
1. Can bitmap objects be used effectively with TIFF images of the size I am working with?
2. an approach that should produce reasonable scrolling performance for these extremely large images without excessive coding effort?
3. For an image that exceeds the picturebox size when displayed at 1:1 scale, is the picturebox capable of displaying a reduced size version of such an image without lots of code, and if so, how?
4. Many (most?) graphics display objects count on all of their display data being stored in memory rather than on disk. Would that be true of a TIFF image loaded into a bitmap object and displayed via a picturebox? If so, the amount of RAM required in order to buffer the entire image in memory could be a potential problem for images of this size. Is there an advisable way to have the picturebox or other display object only load portions of the image into memory on an as needed basis, and purge them once they are no longer required? Are there any built in objects/methods/properties or is there any sample code to show how to do this?
The above image is the form looks alike. it has groupboxes. but it can't be displayed all at once in the form. so i make the form scrollable. but the problem is when i print preview it, it wud display like the below.[code]...

View 5 Repliestrying to print a Form that I created using a VB.Net console application. My console application creates an instance of a Windows Form and fills it with data.

I have been able to do the exercise's in the first 2 chapters and half the exercise's in the third chapter of the text book (programming in visual basic 2008, Julia Case Bradley & Anita C. Millspaugh). but this one is making my head want to explode. please point me in the right direction with this.
Heres the problem. The company has instituted a bonus program to give its employees an incentive to sell more. For every dollar the store makes in a four-week period, the employees receive 2 percent of sales. The amount of bonus each employee receives is based upon the percentage of hours he or she worked during the bonus period (a total of 160 hours). The Calculate button will determine the bonus earned by this employee, and the Clear button will clear only the name, hours-worked, and bonus amount fields. A Print button allows the user to print the form. Do not allow missing or bad input data to cancel the program; instead display a message to the user.
Here's my code so far. its giving me the wrong results. i have tried many different ways,(hence the commented code) but I just dont know where im going wrong.
Public Class VB_Sales
Const BONUSHOURS As Decimal = 160

View 7 RepliesIs there a way to enable a default pan behavior in the .Net scrollable control when you press down on the center scroll button, or Is that a behavior you have to implement yourself? You know like in some programs where you press down on the center button and it give you an arrow cursor that pans whichever direction you move the mouse?
View 1 RepliesI would like to build a form that has multiple picture boxes that a user can browse through and click on each one to select multiple items. The pictures will all be pulled from a single directory. After they have selected the items, they will click a button that will change the names on all the selected pictures. I know how to change the names, but I need some assistance with the picture box and loading the file names into a list or array. Not sure what it would be called. I am not even sure really if I would use a picture box or some other form item.
View 4 Repliesi want to write text on trasparent scrollable control.I try to use label (that accepts trasparent backcolor), but it doesn't have scrollbarIf i use textbox, it has a scrollbar , but not trasparen backcolor.So what control can i use? There something to do this?
View 6 RepliesI'm building a break-timer application. The objective of this, in VB, is to have an application that lets me create a timer dynamically (maybe through a button click) that counts up (or down if you wanna call it that) to a preset point, then makes beeping noises like an alarm. This is due to my desire to no longer be late to and from my breaks at work.
I was able to create a super simple one that just had three timers that I could tick off, but I find myself using them for way more than just three uses. For example, I start one when I get in to count to the point when I need to punch in my timecard (our system is annoying about being exactly on time) then I start one for when my first break starts, then one for my break, then one for after my break but before my lunch, etc.
So, I wanted to have a program that does the following:Has a scrollbar-capable box that can scroll up and down.Each line of the Scrollbar-capable box has one of my custom controls in it (a wide, thin bar containing a field for how long to go, a start button, a display of time elapsed in seconds, and a stop button).
I can just click a button to create each control one line at a time.Now, I know HOW I can create these, but I want to know:Is there an existing type of box that would let me do something like this? Has someone already written this? Or am I going to be creating a COMPLETELY custom control that will be fairly painful to figure out? In which case, is this even doable, or should I just try something else?

View 6 RepliesI am just getting back into VB.NET, and I need to ask a question. I am doing a project for a class which requires iterating through 360 items in a scrollable control that will pause every so often. I am thinking I might use either a ListView or GridView, but I am not sure if this is the right way to go or if I need to use a different control all together.
View 3 RepliesNow i came with another problem.I want to print a Panel Object with scroll bars (AutoScroll = True).
I have searched over the vbforums.com and i have googled for almost 2 days and i did not find any solution for this...
I have to write an application that consists of mainly one main form, but several different things I wanna display. Pretty standard I guess. So there is a menu, some controls, and the main stuff below (ranging form graphs, tables, dropdown boxes, print preview, etc). I would like to use it like one would use frames in html, design an object that is limited to a box or panel that I define. The literature I have does not give me a clear idea of how to do this (yet). The most obvious seem to be the use of MDI, open a predefined form with no borders, maximize it before showing and remove all minimize/maximize options. But that does not work so well. The form inside the MDI parent does not fit the size that is given for it when it is loaded. e.g.
[CODE]:......................
So my main question is: Is MDI the way to go here at all or are there better/easyer ways to achieve this? If MDI is the way to go, how do I sucessfully restrict a child form inside another object, without giving the user any opportunity to resize (i noticed that I have minnimize/maximize/close buttons, even if I disable them on the child forms themselves)
I'm having a tough time implementing my own custom control that makes use of scrollbars if needed. The whole control itself would not be scrollable and only some portions of the custom paining would be scrolled, so the AutoScrolling capabilities of ScrollableControl would not work for me. But, I'm having an extremely difficult time in implementing a professional looking solution, where as the control gets resized, the scrollbars resize proportionality to be able to show a specified area.
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to make a multi-line text box still scrollable while it's disabled? The closest I can achieve this is to set the text box's ReadOnly property to false, which will gray out the text box, and still scrollable, but the text in the box remains black instead of being gray. Changing the forecolor of the text box does not have any effect. The color of the text changes back to black when I set ReadOnly to true. I want to be able to mimic the disabled text box visually.
View 4 RepliesRight, first of all I want to apologize for how bad this is going to sound but please bear with me.I have a folder named x, inside folder x there are numerous folders named 1,2,3 etc etc, inside these folders, there is either another folder named y with 20+ jpegs inside of it, or 20+ jpegs inside of the folder named 1,2,3 etc.
What I want to do, is navigate through the folders until i hit where the jpeg files are, select all the jpegs in the folder, and print them to my CutePDF Printer, and create a PDF with the name of the folder it is in.
[Code]...
As you can see, I've checked to make sure the path is correct and exists. If it does, i create an Array of all the folders inside of Folder X, and then get the number of files inside of the folder.After this I am stuck. What I believe I need to do, is open the first file in the array, and check to see whether the file inside is a folder, if it is, i need to open this folder, if it's not I want to select all the files and print them.Do you guys first of all understand what I want to do, and if so, do you believe it is possible to do this?
