Serialize A Picturebox With All It's Child Controls And Deserialize It
Nov 15, 2010
I have a question about serializing a Picturebox and it's child controls. I have a picturebox on my main form where a user can put new Picture boxes in.To a add a new Picturebox I say: Pictureboxmain.controls.add(Picturebox)But now I want to serialize this in a stream of bytes. I know that you can serialize an Arraylist as followed:[code]But is the same possible with a collection of controls?So now I tried this assuming the same method can be used with a control collection:[code]

I have an XML document that I am deserializing (VB .NET 3.5 Framework), changing some values, and the serializing again. The original document has several XML Comments in it. When I go through all the deserialize/serialize all of the comments are lost. Is there a way to preserve the comments? If not, is there a way to add comments on serialization without having to walk through with the writer and manually add all of the comments back in the appropriate place?

How do I serialize and deserialize my main form (and its controls, subcontrols, their values, etc.)? Edit, for clarification. Currently I am writing the current value of each control to an .INI file, one by one and reading it back when the program is next run. Every time I add a new control, I have to remember to update that save/load .INI code.I just wondered if I can do it in one call, or a simple for loop iterating over all controls on the form.Btw, I use only simple controls like edit box, radio button, combo box, checkd listbox, the most complex thing I have is a datagrid, but even that is not linked to a databse.Accepted answer "can't. I will probably code my own, along the lines of ...
[code]...
maybe later add left/top/height/width/enabled/visible, etc, bu tfor not th econtrol name an its "value" are enough (text, value, lines, checked?, etc)

Is it possible to serialize and deserialize a structure?
I think it isn't because the code I use will not work for a structure but it does work for other data types like an array, string etc

I am trying to write a class to serialize/deserialize something as simple as:
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>row 1, cell 1</td>
[Code]....
I just can't get it to serialize to this thing. I tried to generate the class using xsd but that produced a lot of garbage code and I really would like to maintain this by hand as it is easier than the monstrosity that xsd produced which didn't work anyway.

I have an ArrayList in android that I'm trying to convert to a Base64 String, then passing that to a wcf service though JSON and the wcf service inserts the string into a database. Then I need to be able to read that from the database and deserialize it in a .NET application.
This is how I am serializing the ArrayList in android:
private String convertByteArrayToSave(byte[] b){
if(b != null){
return Base64.encodeToString(b,0,b.length,Base64.DEFAULT);
}else{
[Code]...
The ultimate goal is to be able to be able to create a list of these shapes in the .NET app or android app and be able to read the list in the .NET app and android app no matter where it was created from. I'm able to it when you create the Shape from .NET and read it into android using WCF but creating it in android.

I have a slight problem With an enumaration of child controls on a form. The following code will not get but about have the controls that are on the form. The controls show that the count is correct but when it goes through the loop it skips over some of the controls. If you run it through the enumeration two or three times it will get all the controls a few at a time. The solution uses two forms, one that has the controls and the other that labels are made and displayed on. The Tx is just a index to add a number to the label.name and rename the label. So each label is identified seperately. This works for all the the controls that are seen in the for each loop.

why a picturebox in a MDI parent would show on top of a MDI child? (even when MDI child = topmost)
When calling picturebox.SendToBack the picturebox disappears in the MDI parent.

In VB6 I could embed a panel or picturebox containing controls or images within an outer panel or picturebox. If I moved the outer control then the embedded panel would move with the outer panel and stay in the same relative position, which is what I require. This doesn't seem to happen in VB.NET, the internal panel stays fixed in its location, even if I have pasted this panel within the outer container. Is there are trick to this or do I have to code to get the internal panel to move with the outer one? How does an internal container remain embedded within an outer one?

In the project I'm working on, I was editing a class and when I got done, I clicked save all. I moved on to my main form's designer. When it came up, the custom tab control I have on the form was blank. There used to be a ton of controls in it, so I am extremely confused about where everything went.I checked the properties window and it thinks everything is still there:ut when I check the Document Outline window, everything is gone. The tab control is still there, "AVERT Wizard", but all of it's child controls and tab pages are gone.

Updating a VB6 prog in VS2005 on Windows 7. The prog has an MDI + child forms and there are a number of content types, with varying numbers of controls being set up and positioned from setup files.On forms which are not child forms I can easily add controls at run time like this:
Dim lab As New Label
With lab
.Left = 0 : .Top = 0
.Width = 800 : .Height = 800
[code]....
This doesn't work on a child form, no label is visible. Can't see any obvious problem in quickwatch.

[Code] I have a panel as the base of my custom control and I am adding other panels to it, along with a flow layout panel(myInnerContainer). I know the code above isn't going to work because when I try to add the regular panels to the main control, they will attempt to be added to the flow layout panel myInnerContainer, and cause a circular error. [Code] but intellisense doesn't display anything which leads me in the correct direction for adding only the buttons to the flow layout panel (myInnerContainer).

I've created a tab control and on one of the pages I added a button, but I cannot move the button around with the mouse!? I can change the buttons position within the tab control page using the property Location and I can size the button using the mouse and the button is NOT locked. I even tried creating a new project with just the tab control and it still does the same thing. I can, tho, move the button using the keyboard arrows!
I'm using VS2010 V10.0.30319.1 RTMREL on WinXP SP3.

I have a form that can spawn a child form, something like:[code]I want to be able to launch multiple children. Unfortunately, I seem to be getting conflicts within the controls of the children. One button will run the other child's control, etc. They also seem to think that their class-level variables are accessible to each other. Private Shared variables like the following are conflicting (one form thinks it's seeing the other form's "mp3file" variable as their own):[code]How do I spawn children forms that keep their controls and data separate?

I have a bunch of dynamically created controls by the user which I'm storing as a control collection in the session state so I can display them on every postback. Each control that the user generates is a div with other controls inside it. I have a button on each control that will allow the user to either delete the control or duplicate it.

Does anyone know how to make the controls on an MDI Child form resize along with the form itself? I inherited a project from another developer and I was asked specifically to make the form resize. With advice I received on this forum I now have the form resizing as expected. It will minimize, restore and maximize as well as resize with the mouse pointer.
The problem is that when I increase the size of the form all I get is more blank space on the screen. The controls to do change at all. Although I thin this is normal behavior for a Windows form my bosses all seem to think that the controls resize on every other widows for they see. I wondered if anyone had successfully accomplished this. I was already advised to write a FormResize handling subroutine and this unfortunately did not work.

I want to implement basic finger gestures within one of my apps, but have got stuck at the first hurdle. There are a few examples on the net, but they seem to use custom controls that do not allow easy use of other controls. I really just need a way to capture the MouseDown/Up methods even through a child control, still allowing clicks to be captured by whatever control has been clicked.

my project is on the verge of completion and a large part of the credit goes to daniweb.now m stuck with a very annoying problm. ive googled the whole day but to no avail.m using visual studion 2005 and access 07.ive clubbed these three problms together cause i thought they might be related somehow...
1) i want the mdi child screen to be maximized. but on the first attempt only the control box goes to the top rite corner. however on the 2nd attempt it gets sorted out.ive tried to set the initial state to maximized but with same result. please help
2) whn the form loads it gives this tiling effect.. like the effect a tube light gives whn it is switced on...which is very annoying.
ive search for the result and some recommended to change the resolution of the user screen which is not acceptable to me.cant i change the resolution of my application depending on the user's resolution.
3) whn the form is maximized i want its user control or contents to change their alignment accordingly...anchor property only changes the size however the ideal thing will be to change the controls position w.r.t the container or form...
