Following on from my post yesterday (how to anchor buttons/controls to various sides of the current form when the form is resized) I have run into another problem. I am setting the width of my datagrid to be 80% of the form width on a 'form resize' event with 10% of the width at either side so it remains centred in whatever size window is available. This works fine. (mydatagrid.width = me.width/5*4)
I then decided to dynamically set the width of the 2 columns in the datagrid each to 50% of the width of the datagrid. Again, this sub is called in the 'form resize' event. This fails because the datagrid hasn't loaded the data from my sql database when the first 'resize' event is triggered. I did a bit of testing (by placing a simple msgbox statement into the resize event and the load event) and it seems the 'resize' event is triggered three times before the form's load event.
how do I stop the resize event triggering when the form loads (or at least make the load event trigger first).
I'm trying to validate a few things in a form I'm building. It has a datagrid with clients info (taken from an access database) and a few textboxes where the user can type some search criteria. The thing is that those same textboxes are used to add new clients to the database and to modify a client's information if one from the datagrid is selected, so I made it that the buttons to insert and modify clients are disabled on load and thenevery time the text on a textbox changes ("TextChanged" event) they become enabled. So far so good. But then I wanted to make it so when a client from the datagrid is selected both buttons become disabled again until the text on a textbox changes (to make sure they're adding a different client and not the same one that was selected).
I tried using the CellClick event from the datagrid to disable the buttons, but since every time a client is selected from the datagrid the info is shown on the textboxes, this triggers the TextChanged event too, and the buttons become available.So, is there a way I can tell the TextChanged event not to be triggered when the CellClick event occurs?
Eg. ""vb.net" timer event trigger on purpose". This application is meant to run at all times to download a web page every minute. To avoid freezing the UI, I read that the best solution is to move the code from a While/Sleep loop to a Timer that will be triggered every minute. The problem I have, is that the user must wait for a minute before the event is triggered:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Timer1.Interval = 60000 Timer1.Enabled = True
[CODE]...
Is it possible to force this event to occur instead of waiting for it?
I am using VB.NET for Windows applications. What is the difference between Load event,Activate event and Enter event in the Form and in which order the above event is executed.
I am using VS 2008 and UltraGrid from Infragistics v 5.2
I have two UltraGrid objects on a Winform. While the AfterRowUpdate event gets triggered for one, it does not get triggered for the other. Here's the procedure of the offending UltraGrid event:
This does get executed:
Private Sub ugPatient_AfterRowInsert(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.RowEventArgs) Handles ugPatient.AfterRowInsert e.Row.Cells("Courtesy_C").Value = "Mr."
[Code]....
The source file is different from when the module was built. Would you like the debugger to use it anyway?
Even if I rebuild by application, the dialog box does not go away.
I'm having a really annoying issue which I can't get to the bottom of. I've got a NumberUpDown control which has a ValueChanged event. There is only one reference to it in my entire project which I have commented out to prove that it isn't calling the event. Even though the number is not being changed (the control sometimes isn't even in focus!) the ValueChanged event gets called. This is driving me crazy and I wondered if I could back track through the code to see what actually caused this event to trigger?
how can i know what event was triggered in picturebox in VBnet? [Code] i want to know what event was triggered whether it is .MouseEnter or .MouseLeave. the reason why i'm making this is to make the code more categorized according to the object that was used.
I am facing a issue while using the "validating" event of the maskedtextbox. I have an MDI form, in which there is a main form and a form acting as bottom bar. The bottom bar comprises of buttons for moving to "previous" and "next" forms. If suppose in the main form i have a maskedtextbox and the initial focus is set on it, then on the click event of the button (next; which is on the bottom bar form), it calls the validating event of the maskedtextbox twice. In the validating event of the maskedtextbox, i am checking some validations and if it doesnt pass, then i set [e.cancel = true]. just let me know the reason behind the triggering of "Validating" event twice?
I'm trying to execute different code depending on the button clicked (button 4 or 5) on Form1, but when I click on button5 to activitae the code on the Form2's Load event everything is Ok, but when I click the back button to return to Form 1 and click on the Button4 to activate the code on the Form2's Load event again, it doesn't active the Form's Load event, is there a way to form the form load event every time I access it from Form1? [code]
I have a textbox in a tab control and iv'e coded the textbox_leave event to show a msgbox and reselect the textbox if the text doesn't meet certain conditions.
Private Sub TextBoxChaseTime_Leave(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBoxChaseTime.Leave If IsDate(Me.TextBoxChaseTime.Text) Then Me.TextBoxChaseTime.Text = Format(CDate(Me.TextBoxChaseTime.Text), "hh:mm")[code]..... (Reselecting the textbox is the only way i can find to efectively cancel the leave event - is there another)
I've also added a line to also reselect the tabpage incase the textbox_leave event was triggered by selecting a different tab in the tabcontol.However, when the textbox_leave event is triggered by the user selecting a different tab the textbox_leave event seems to be triggered several times displaying the msgbox four times.why this is, but it seems to be caused by the by the line that reselects the tabcontrolhow to stop the msgbox being shown more than once Interestingly, if i add a line to change the text in the text box to meet the conditions the msgbox is only shown once, but the tabpage is not reselcted
I have created the following piece of code to try and see if the user pushes the 'f1' key, and if they do.
[Code]...
I am not sure if this code works yet because the keypressed event is not triggered when I push a key. Could someone tell me how I can change my code so that it will test what key is pressed, no matter what control on the form has focus?
I have a picture box in my form and now I want to add an event so that if the mouse is scrolled up the scale of the picture box gets larger and when the user scrolls down the size off the picture box gets smaller. This way I want to make a zoom in and out effect.So now i have the following code in the mouse wheel event of the Picture box:
If e . Delta >
[code]...
But somehow this whole mouse wheel event isn't fired.
I have an application with a DataGridView and WebBrowser controls. In the DataGridView I load a DataTable using BindingSource. DataTable is just a list of URLs. I use SelectionChanged event on the DataGridView to load a selected URL in the WebBrowser control. The problem I have is that when I minimize form to the tray, it for some reason triggers SelectionChange event multiple times. What's really weird is that if I minimize to the taskbar SelectionChange event doesn't get triggered. It also doesn't get triggered if I load URLs directly to the DataGridView. What triggers SelectionChange and how to get rid of it?
Public Class Form1 Dim URLTable As DataTable = New DataTable("URLs") Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim URLColumn As DataColumn = URLTable.Columns.Add("URL", GetType(String)) [Code] .....
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?
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.
Let's say I have a DropDownList of product categories and a ListView of products based on the category selection in the DropDownList. When a user visits the page, there is a possibility of conconrency issue as new product belonging to a new category may be added to the inventory as the user is browsing.When the user selects a different category to view(a SelectedIndexChanged event) and causes a postback, I want the DropDownList to update the list of categories to include the new category being concurrently added and at the same time still able to make a change of selected index.
I have a datagridview control with a number of comboboxes on it.I am generating a custom combobox with a DataGridView_EditingControlShowing event.How do you get the name of the combobox in DataGridView that fired the event?as all actions on the DataGridView trigger this Sub
About some coding in visual basic.NET 2005. I was wondering if it was possible for code to be altered automatically if a certain event was triggered. For example; would it be possible for you to alter the following structure, say if a a button was pressed?
The structure is as follows:
Structure ClientDrawings Public ClientID As String Public Drawing_1 As String
In an event handler of a tab chaged of a tabcontrol, I call a method asynchrounously, like this:
Private Sub tabDetails_Deselecting(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.TabControlCancelEventArgs) Handles tabDetails.Deselecting ' we pass pageindex so that we set the index back in case the validation fails
When you Use Socket.Send Ether in VB6 with the Winsock control or Vb.Net sockets / Windows API does it generate that if you send "Hello" that on the other side it will get the Full Message Before the Data Arrival event is triggered??Or is it possible it can get it in two Different events like "He" & "llo" and a Last question, TCP is stream oriented, is there a Protocol that is Message Oriented but is wrapped with TCP, if not what is a good Delimitor to use with TCP, Usually ide use &H1 OR &H0 but I assume &H0 is common.. or Should I just add a Length Param before each Packet I send..?Now if thats the case and I got the Delimitor route... What if Im sending Chunks of 8192 of a File in a while loop and on a different thread I send a Command if I use the Length Param isent there a huge chance that the messages will get sent like this
[code]...
BUT the issue lies as it thinking that only the 3 of 4 of the incomming file Frames are getting Recv due to it not knowing which frames are for which. Mainly due to me sending a big burst and on the other side recving random chunk sizes on the other side.Edit: Got another question, If I send two bytes across the internet via TCP, will they ever arrive as two different I belive the term is Frame or is that only when they exceide the size of the MTU will the Message be Split. The reason why is if I send a Header saying SOH, Length Of Message(2Bytes), thats 3 bytes can I say 100% of the time the computer on the otherend will recv that all at once so I can parse it? And What ever happen to Flush for Winsock?
On my DataGridView one of the columns is set to a ComboBox. When I make a selection from this ComboBox the CellValue change Event is not triggered. What event is triggered when I do the selection?
I'm not even sure what I need to know. None the less lets say I got a timer with an if event to check if said event is triggered then it fires off some code. The problem is if said event is triggered it keeps firing off the code and I only need to do it one time. Whilst letting the timer keep checking if event happened. I hope I worded that right and here is a rough translation in code. [Code] Is there a way to keep checking if an event happened and only fire off the code one time?
if a new value of Calendar is selected, it would trigger .SelectionChanged event, but what if same selected value is clicked again? How should i identify it uniquely?
I've read thru Iceplug's tutorial on control arrays and got it working. I tried to add a new event by basically copying his click event code and calling it a doubleclick event. I used the proper addhandler and assigned the correct name to my sub. I have the click event changing the background color to blue and the doubleclick event changing the background color to green. The background color does not change to green. Why?
Heres the tutorial with my new code encased in asterisks ...
I have set up a Textbox Resize event, but when I execute the form, it doesn't allow me to change the textbox size. I'm not sure what code to show; this is a VB.Net book exercise that I'm running in VB 2005. [code] I have tried setting the Border to something beside 'Fixed'. All resize references I have found refer to Forms or tables. Is there a property that allows users to resize a textbox? (
I've tired to use KeyPress event while in focus of my program's window in VB.Net, but it doesn't work.
For example I wanted to press the number "2" anywhere while in focus of the application and as effect the pixels of the window will change from 200,200 to 600,600 (hortizontal and vertical)
