How can I change a form's backcolor to gradient one. The code (VB.Net) -
e.Graphics.FillRectangle(New Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush(New PointF(Me.Width, 0),
New PointF(Me.Width, Me.Height), Color.FromArgb(0, 58, 140),
Color.FromArgb(0, 215, 255)), New RectangleF(0, 0, Me.Width, Me.Height))
'fade from left to right
This code changes the form's background to a gradient one. It works fine. Now I want this to take place in an MDI form which will be a container for other forms. If I turn option IsContainer = False then it works but otherwise it does now. How can I change backcolor of MDI Form to a gradient one ?

I have a requirement to have a button filled with a gradient colour (red to green) & can't seem to find a way to do this.I am able to draw a rectangle & do a gradient fill, however I need the buttons backcolor property to have the gradient fill rather than a rectangle on top of the button.
View 2 RepliesI am making a gradient colored text tool for a game I play where they use a 3 digit number as an RGB color code before text. Making gradients by hand is tedious, as to do a gradient you type one letter at a time with an RGB code that changes by 1 in front of each letter.
example: "^090H^190e^290l^390l^490o" Would be a color gradient for Hello
I have a user input text into a text box and choose up to 6 colors. The colors then are assigned RGB values, only instead of 0-255 they are 0-9. (So they look like this 000=black 999=white 090=green, etc.)
I have figured out how to do this, but now I need to place the RGB values in front of the users text while only changing one of the RGB numbers at a time.
So if the color values are 090 and 900:
"090 190 290 390 490 590 690 790 890 990 980 970 960 950 940 930 920 910 900" is what I would like generated with the users text spaced evenly between.
I have no idea as to how I would go about putting three digit color codes between the users text or how to change the color codes one number at a time. I could try to do this on my own but it would be sloppy and probably a lot more code than needed (I have a feeling I should be using a loop or something like 'for each')... It's been awhile since I opened VB!
I have a grid containing rows flagged with different priorities. I want to color the high priority rows red, low ones blue, etc. I'd like to set the shade based on a mathmatically calculated gradient rather than arbitrarily assigning colors to specific priorities. How can I extract a single color from a single point along gradient?

View 1 RepliesI have a DGV with the Alternating row color set to grey.In the CellFormatting event on the DGV I want to go through the rows as if a cell contains a certain value I want to set the BackColor to red.However when I do this, it just gets overridden with the Alternating grey color. The cell in question in a normal colored row appears in red as expected, just not the alternating row.
How do i set the backcolor of the form to a rgb color via script, im making a theme tab, which changes the color, but i want the default color, and i have a custom color that is really close to it, but I dont know how to set to an rgb sadly. or i could use an alternitive by setting the background to the system color control, but I also dont know how to do that.This is what i have so far:

The problem it's about coloring the items in ListBox. I don't know how to color some items in ListBox, but with same background color that they are showed in TextBox.
Picture 1:
Picture 2:
On picture 1 There is item that i get from RandomItem Button.Color it's depend on quality of item. For this example, i choose some Gloves with Green Background Color. So when i press on Take it, item go to my Invetnory and stay there while i don't use it, drop it or sell it. But i have problem with the background color of item when i took it in Inventory. So you can see on picture 1 that item got Green Background Color, and when i put it in my Inventory, (you can see in picture 2) there is no background color in ListBox. So My question it's, How i need to fix this code, to be able to take Text and Background Color together from the TextBox to ListBox. For now it's just Text. Here is the code that i used for transfering the Text from TextBox to the ListBox without color:
If TextBox1.Text = "" Then
MsgBox("There is no item that you can take.")
Else

The code below is from your forum and it gives the error: missingmemberexception?
For x3 = 0 To lstStock.Items.Count - 1
If lstStock.Items(x3) = LastStockCode1 Then

Next x3
I have a list box display on a form. I want to change the forground color of one item using item index. The code "lststock.item(x3).attributes.add("style", "color:red")" does not work. One solution was two pages of code! This s/b simple. I have the INDEX of the list item. I just want to change the words in that item from the color at list build time to red to highlite it!
I'm making a small program in VB.NET. I have a listBox and a button. I'd like to be able to press the button and have the selected listBox item change it's foreColor to green. I've tried many ways of doing this, ranging from overriding the draw method to using a listView (listBox is much better for what I'm doing, please don't recommend that I use a listView, I've already tried it.)At first I thought this would be simple, but it's the exact opposite and I'm very frustrated that such a simple task should be so difficult. I don't want to use any third-party controls, as I'd have to completely re-write my application.
