I am having problems trying to center some text. I created a printdocument and it has a company name and title and then other information I have the information fine but I wanted to center the company name [code]I know I have to get the width of the page then divide it by two and after that find out how long my text is then subtract that so it still prints center screen. Pretty much right now it prints out and runs off the right side of the page.But what I would like it to do is print in the Center but have equal margins on the sides of the page still.Just like clicking Center allignment on a word doc.
i found this video today and its a simple vb game but made me wonder how they kept the charater centered during movement.url...Anyone have a simple snippet to demostrate how they made a larger resulution then vewable and kept the picturebox centered and only moved the viewable area?
I was wondering if there was a way to CENTER text in a ListBox. I tired to find any settings or properties that allows me to set the text and couldn't see. is there any way for this>
I have a BackgroundWorker and using a delegate to update an UI on a different thread. Everything is working except the "lblInfo.Left = (Me.Width / 3) - (lblInfo.Width / 4)".I need this line since it allows me to center the text on the UI as I have several Subroutines and they all have various lengths in text. pass the lblInfo.Left = (Me.Width / 3) - (lblInfo.Width / 4) from the delegate so I don't get a IllegalCrossThread.
Delegate Sub SetLabelTextInvoker(ByVal lblInfo As Label, ByVal Text As String) Sub SetLabelText(ByVal lblInfo As Label, ByVal Text As String) If lblInfo.InvokeRequired = True Then
I know i've made a few posts previously on this, but none have fully worked. I now have my program doing everything I need it to do, except having the ability to display the text to the centre of the screen. It needs to be able to perform the same functionality it does on the form but without the form being there (e.g. the letter disappearing after being pressed)
I am having problems trying to center some text. I created a printdocument and it has a company name and title and then other information I have the information fine but I wanted to center the company name and I can't seem to do it correctly here is what I have
I originally tried:Convert.ToSingle((e.PageBounds.Width / 2) - (szF.Width / 2))
But it would print out wrong it would start in the middle of the document and print everything to the right making it go way to the right and off the page. Since then I changed it to what is in the code block but its still not right
i am using the DrawString Method to insert a Text on an Image. But i am not able to center it on the image. How could i do that? Thats my code:
Dim g As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(destBitmap) g.InterpolationMode = Drawing2D.InterpolationMode.HighQualityBicubic g.PixelOffsetMode = Drawing2D.PixelOffsetMode.HighQuality
Does anyone have any working examples of centering text in a Datagridview column? I tried what I thought was a no-brainer, and it simply does not work. (I don't have the code handy here).
I have a Listview and each ListviewItem has an image with a height of 90 pixels. This means that the Listview rows are also about 90 pixels high, enough room to show the subitems text word wrapped.
The only way to wordwrap text is to draw it myself, as far as I know, because the Listview has no property for that. I'm using the code below, which works fine, except I'm having some problems with centering the text vertically.
In my Visual Basic 2010 project, I want to send a series of plain .txt files to somewhat of a database where they can be stored. The best way I can describe it is like an email system with attachments. The information that is being sent is not sensitive information therefore security doesn't matter, I would like to receive it and add it into a database. Is there any place where I can send these text files to in an email(attachment) like fashion but without needing to enter credentials first? If so, could you please assist me or guide me in the right direction?Sending the information through email would be swell, however this would require the user to first submit their email information which defeats the purpose of the what I'm trying to do.
I'm building a simple WFA with a label that changes and gives instructions to the user as they work their way through the program. Is there a way to programmatically re-center the label horizontally after each text change so that the label is always centered in the form regardless of what text is present?
I'm trying to simply center the label text in the middle of my program.I put the label control in the center of my form. It starts out blank. Then, it receives input from the return values of MySQL commands being sent out to a server.When it receives the message, it displays like this:
|-------->
.. with the "|" being where the label starts.I'd like it to center the text like this:
<-----|----->
Is this possible. Hopefully I explained it clearly. I had no success with the text align property or modifying the anchor property.
I assume that this will be an easy one for you guys. I have never dabbled with drawing in VB.NET. I have searched the forum and Google already, but have turned up nothing to help me. Here is my problem. I have an image that is in an image box. I would like to draw a string of text on it, centered vertically and horizontally. Here is what I am using to draw the text.
I create some reports or documents in my vb 2008 application using the Printing.printdocument object.I have no problem when i print to a printer but I also need to print directly to a PDF file, and specify the filename in the code. I don't want to have any interaction with the filename dialog box. It must be totally transparent to the user. Does anyone have an idea to help me? I don't find anything on the net?
I have an A5 paper. I need to set the print document to this paper. But I can't change RawKind property of the print document. Please help. I tried that code, but it didn't work:
I have a program that prints using the printdocument control. How do I check for errors in the program. Sometimes the program prints ok, sometimes the print does not print at all or give any feedback about the status of the print.
Bireirectional printing is enabled on the printer.
The program prints barcoded orders to a barcode label printer. The supplier's only cue to supply is the printed barcode label. I can see in the program that the orders are getting queued, and at certain intervals a timer runs to update each available order's status to "printed".As far as I am aware, there is no "Error" event of the printdocument control, and the printing is an asynchronous operation. So how should I check?
In a program I am using the standard PrintDocument, PageSetupDialog and PrintPreView controls. I am attempting to print a screenful of information which covers three A4 printed sheets. The printed format is OK except that the positioning on the page. Changing the margins in the PageSetupDialog makes it worse.So I wrote the following code in the Form Load event to see what was going on -
I have written a timeclock application for my employees and am trying to generate a report using a printdocument.The problem I'm having is finishing out the entries on another page. This code is causing the remaining entries to be printed on the same page over top of the original ones.Here is the basics of the code.
Private Sub prtReport_PrintPage(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs) Handles prtReport.PrintPage Dim TitleFont As New Font("Times New Roman", 22) Dim HeaderFont As New Font("Microsoft San Serif", 14) Dim FooterFont As New Font("Microsoft San Serif", 6)
The problem I'm facing is that PrintForm has a shoddy quality while getting the printouts and PrintDocument takes way too long to get on receipt printed (Almost 5-10 Seconds!)I'm either looking for an alternative for PrintDocument or somehow make the PrintDocument run faster
I'm sending a rtl text "Arabic" to a receipt printer. My problem is in selecting left and top coordinates for each line. If the paper width changes the whole procedure needs to be written for that specific width, because I'm measuring form the left edge. Is there a way in the printDocument object that flips the starting point from left to right?
p.s. the format string in the args.Graphics.DrawString() only select the direction of the printed string in case it has some numbers and symbols but it doesn't start the string from the right edge of the page.
