I'm a moderate (self taught) skill level programmer, developing a piece of software to display information on a Large-screen LCD Display using VB.Net 2008 in Visual Studio 2008 Pro, this is a WinForms project targeted for the .NET 3.5 framework.I have a WebBrowser Control (docked into a disabled panel on the form) which is used to playback a powerpoint presentation, on a fullscreen, borderless form.I need this to be resizeable/ movable, depending on the other information I need to display. If I just resize/move the control, but looks horrible, so I would like to animate this resizing.The WebBrowser control will be, by default, in the top right quarter of the screen, resizing to fill the screen as and when needed (so the control will need to scale up in size, and move left at the same time).I've tried to loop through a resize in increments, but the browser resize flickers, although the powerpoint inside it appears to look OK. Is there any way to make this a nice, smooth resize, without the flickering?
I am working on making a borderless form resize, but every time you move the mouse while resizing, it starts blinking until you are done. Is there a smoother borderless resize?
Here is the code I have right now
Dim CurLocation, AppLocation As New Point(0, 0)
Private Sub Sync() CurLocation = Cursor.Position AppLocation = Me.Size
I have a form positioned slightly above the taskbar/system tray in the bottom right corner of my desktop window.It's sort of like a pop-up notification.The notification itself looks great,but there's a button on it which resizes the form up, animating the sizing in increments of 5px whilst keeping it's position relative to the bottom-right corner of the screen.
The problem with this is that it doesn't look very smooth. Adjusting Me.Width resizes from the left so you have to then move the form to the left with Me.Left to compensate. Me. SetBounds just seems to be a wrapper for setting those properties anyway.Is there anything I can do to have the form smoothly (or at least appear to) resize outwards from the left of the form?
I'm starting work updating an UI for one of my company's applications and I'm running into a sticky issue. The parent control contains several panels, each of which can be turned on or off depending on user input.
The final panel in the user control contains another user control which gets resizes according to a toggle switch. Essentially, it "opens" up more information.
While the child control (ChildControl) is docked to Fill inside the parent control (ParentControl), when I add height to ChildControl I can't get ParentControl's height to get updated as well. Currently I'm handling the ChildControl.Layout event in ParentControl but I can't seem to reach that code. To resize ChildControl, I'm calling Me.Height += 200 in ChildControl.vb.
I was wondering if there is a library or code snippet available for .NET (or that I can translate to .NET) to display animated PNG files (on the Graphics object, or even in a custom control)?
I have a user control which contains some textboxes,buttons ,labels and comboboxes . I used that control in a form and inside a split contaier.Splitter can be moved by the user. User control is docked as fill.
Now when user move the splitter the user control size is changes as it is dock fill but the inner controls used in that user control looks like fixed in a single place .It are not moving nor resizing .How to do this .Is there any property to perform thisI already know about anchor property but sometimes it causes overlapping of controls so I can not use it.
i want to ask about screen resolution and control resize..how can i make my control, like button, textbox, etc resize automatically within any screen resolution?have you guy ever hear about active resize from url...i want my vb net application look like that so if we use ANY resolution, the application we create will not messedit can strecth..i already try dock, anchor, panel, etc, but it cannot work.
I have been searching for code and/or a tutorial on how to proportianally resize controls and fonts. For example if I design a form at 800 X 600 and the user maximizes the form to 1600 X 1200, I need the form and controls to grow to fill the screen almost like a zoom function.
I have a user control where in the user control that there are 3 other controls for the PictureBox, button1 and button2.for the PictureBox control I want to resize when the user control in he will change length and width.button1 and button2 whereas only change in the position left alone.I include the following examples in resize images before and after.
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] .....
why the title has "(con't)" is because of this Form Resize With Control Sizing... almost named it with another thread on here. And I wanted to post, but it was already a 'Zombie Thread'.Thanks to _HAWK_'s post #11, instead of declaring every control I use. Would declaring it an array (fast guess - Label<Array(how many - 1; aka - X)>) work? ... that was probably Java... My point has probably been made, or can I just do Label.Scale(variable)?I had already set my declaration of the form I need to do this on "Resize". I am not quite at this stage yet, but I see this saving a lot of time asking early.
The +1 extra question is:How can I be able to split of a form in 3 unequal sections? The initial form is 800*600-left side has 2 sections, each 400*300 right side is 400*600.I am already using 3 'GroupBox' and it looks ugly because I have each one colored differently.I looked into Splitter and SplitContainter and TableLayoutContainer.
How to implement resize begin and end on controls the way a Form does. I had the idea that this can be accomplished using windows messages API (WM_ENTERSIZEMOVE and WM_EXITSIZEMOVE) but most of the samples I've seen so far are for windows. The reason for this is because I have a control that needs to re-render an image. The controll is inside a split container. The split container has only the Resize event. Is there any way this can be done?
I have a custom control label that I am trying to give all the same properties and functionality to as a regular label. I can change the text, font, and assign the auto size property. However, I cannot figure out a way to make the control re-size correctly. Does anyone have any suggestions or code examples of a custom control being re-sized to fill the entire control?
I am staring on the programming world using VB 2008 express edition, mi project is data acquisition software which today is almost ready to go, but I want to add an extra ornament to the digital value display.I am using textcontrol to display numeric values, and the fixture that I would like to add is to be able to resize the control in run mode using the mouse left click hold down on the edge of the control and just move the mouse and the control expand or shrinks, as the same action as when we want to resize any form.
I have a Mdi form and I need to put a control on the form which the user can resize. Now I need a container can be dragged by user to increase it's size. The split container will not work in my case as I have childforms and stuff. I want a container whose size can be increased by dragging it on one side.
Focus and Resize the Control at Runtime I want to focus and re-size the controls like text box or label at run time using keyboard and as well as mouse. I have attached the image that has control and it is focused and it could be re-size. In that image,background it has grids. I need that kind of grids in my form. From this position of control, I need to convert it to .txt format and print it to the pre-formatted paper. So i need 4 requirements,
Assume the ListView1.Width is "30", then each column should be in event width of 10. Furthermore thereshould only be three columns becuase i have added only three columns. However, when i resize teh form, the listview controls shows an additional column.
How this was added? How do i fix this, so that when i add 3 columns it will have only three columns even when resized the form or not
How Do I Make It So When You Navigate To A Webpage Using A Tabcontrol The Tab Displays The Document Title Of That Site But Does Not Resize Itself To Fit The Entire Title, It Stays One Size.
First off I'm using the Extended Webbrowser control from: [URL]
I use the Webbrowser control to access an ESRI web based mapping solution. When the ESRI map is loaded into an IE browser and the browser is resized then the map control resizing accordingly. When my Webbrowser control is resized the map webpage is not resizing properly.
I don't even know where to start with this problem. Is there some event that's not firing in the website? I can't simply refresh the whole website because the user may have panned and zoomed around. I want to just tell the website that the container control (Webbrowser control) is resizing now.
I'm using this control in a application to load the URL of a .jpg image. The thing is that the image is bigger than the control, so I want it to automatically resize the image, as IE does when the same thing happens there, and it even shows a little magnifier glass to restore the image to full size.How can this be achieved? What happens at default is that the image is bigger than the control, so a quarter of it shows and I have to scroll to see the rest.
I'm searching for a solution to resize image(jpg) being passed in from an array in Picturebox Control on .NETCF 2.0 in VB.NET without resorting to using the opennetcf library, is it possible?
I want to resize font of all windows form control when i change screen resolution..I am able to resize all the controls but font resize driving me nuts..
I'm using VB.net 2010 and WPF 4. I need to have a smooth transition between two videos played on the mediaelement. I absolutely cannot use anything that requires me to use a winhost in the WPF window, as that will make my project impossible (since the video is full screen, and the controls are over the video)Basically, I need for the video to play through, and then smoothly go to another video specified in code behind. I cannot splice the two videos together - they must be separate.How do I have the videos transition smoothly, with no "blink"?
I created so many listviews in my project, that im too lazy to add to each listview a resize event with percentages. Is there any other trick, who just scales the columns so as they are?
