Removing Buttons From ToolStrip?

Jan 14, 2010

I need to remove all the buttons in my toolstrip so they can then be repopulated. But I have no idea how to remove them. I tried using a For statement:

For Each ToolStripButton In Mainwindow.FavouritesBar.Items()
Mainwindow.FavouritesBar.Items().RemoveAt(Mainwindow.FavouritesBar.Items().Count - 1)
Next MainWindow is the name of the form that FavouritesBar (The ToolStrip) belongs to.

I am calling this from another form, but I keep getting a "Collection was modified; enumeration operation may not execute." exception.

ToolStrip On A Databound Form - Toolstrip Buttons Don't Receive Focus In The Normal Way ?

Mar 24, 2009

I really want to make use of the toolstrip and databinding but these two technologies keep conflicting with each other. I think the root cause is something to with the fact that the toolstrip buttons don't recieve focus in the normal way.

I invite you to try the following:-

1. Create a form and put some text boxes a tool strip with a save button on it.

2. Write a query or sproc to get a datatable back and bind your text boxes to the field in the datatable.

3. In the code behind your Save ToolStripButton put some code that makes an arbitrary change to a field on the dataset (it doesn't matter whther this field is bound to a text box or not). eg:-
m_DataTable.Rows(0).Item("CommissionRatePerc") = "0.0000"

4. Put a breakpoint in the save and run the form.

5. Make some changes in the text boxes. Do not leave the last text box but rather click save while a text box whose contents you have edited still has focus.

6. When your code hits the breakpoint, query the value of the data table field that is bound to the text box you were editing when you clicked save - it will still contain the unedited value. Unless you do something about it that unedited value is going to get saved back to your DB.

We did get around this problem by explicetely setting the focus to another control on the form before saving. That worked most of the time because it prompts the text box to flush it's value back to the datatable (nb EndEdit does not work, although you'd have expected it to). However, and this is the reason I suggested you add a line of code that changed a value in the underlying datatable in step 3, if you change a value in code in this way before the value from the text box get's flushed back then it doesn't seem to matter what you do, the user's current edit is simply lost. They will still show in the text box, though, leading your user to believe that the change has been committed when it hasn't. Our final solution is that we never ever change a value in the adtaset in the code behind our toolstrip buttons. That's working but it's a pretty big restriction.

ToolStrip Buttons Are Gone

Apr 5, 2010

I have an MDI container with a ToolStrip. I ran into a naming issue with images/icons. I removed the lines of code referring to the image of the buttons in the MDIForm.Designer.VB file. Then, in the actual designer, I imported the image file as a project resource and added this image to each button.

When I view the MDI form in the designer, the buttons appear normally, but when I run the app, the buttons are not there!

Should i have not edited the designer.vb file directly? Can this be fixed without recreating each button?

Enable / Disable All Buttons In A ToolStrip?

Oct 29, 2010

I have a toolStrip with several buttons. Each button opens a new form.

With some forms I disable just its button, but with others I disable three buttons.

After I close any form, I re-enable the button.

As it isn't always the same amount of buttons, I'd like to do a routine to re-enable the buttons after I close any form. I've tried with:

MenuStrip With Dropdowns And ToolStrip With Buttons

Jul 14, 2010

VS2008 .NET 3.5SP1
I've got a MenuStrip with dropdowns and a Toolstrip with buttons. I don't want the button images in the image margin of the dropdown because they are too small to read properly. I can't seem to find the ShowImageMargin property (in either the MenuStrip or the ToolStripMenuItems) to turn the margin off. I've constructed the menu items in the designer.

IDE :: Adding Buttons To A Toolstrip In A Custom User Control

Oct 23, 2009

There is a response to this question using C# - I am looking for a VB answer and the C# code is too deep for me. I have a custom user control and I have a toolstrip on it. I have certain default buttons on the toolstrip, but I want the user to be able to add additional buttons at design time. I exposed the Toolstrip.Items collection in a public property. I can open the collections editor in design time, but I cannot edit the collection.

Mar 11, 2012

I have a lot of buttons on a form (144) that need to be removed. All their names begin with "R". So I used this piece of code.

However whenever I run this sub function, it deletes every other button starting with "R". better code or point out if the flaw is in that piece of code or it is hidden somewhere else in my program?

Resolution And Buttons - Tabs, Inside Each Tab There Are Buttons (the User Can Add The Buttons When They Want)

Mar 3, 2012

I have a piece of software with two tabs, inside each tab there are buttons (the user can add the buttons when they want). when tab1 is full tab2 should start to fill. I currently know how many buttons fit on the screen so I just say something like if buttons > 150 then start to populate tab 2 The problem i have now though is if the resolution is changed then a different amount of buttons can be displayed. so if I put my screen to 1280x720 some buttons are left of. I was thinking of detecting the resolution and then using different cases for different resolutions but this seems very inefficient im wondering if there is a different way?

Different Buttons And When These Buttons Are Clicked In The Defined Order Then Having A Picture Displayed?

Feb 5, 2010

What I would like to do is to have four different buttons (e.g., buttonA, buttonB, buttonC and button D). I wanna give the following instruction to the people: press these buttons in the following order: first buttonA, then buttonB, then buttonC and last buttonD. If they obey this instruction then a picture will be displayed, for instance a happy face. All the other combinations will not activate this picture to be displayed, or in other words, there won't be any consequence. I would also like to save this data using windows note pad e.g., writeline (1, xxxxxx). Is there any chance I will make it?
