View 3 RepliesI've been building controls for many years professionally and personally, but even back in VB6 days I just could not work this out. After all this time I remembered about it again.If I create a usercontrol/containercontrol and add one or more controls to the controls surface, I just cannot figure out how to access the controls at design time.
View 4 Repliesi'm building a control. then the control can be puted in form(or other container) and i need to know what controls are in that container. for now i don't put it to work:
Code:
Public Sub AllControlsName()
Dim i As Long
For i = 0 To Me.Container.Components.Count - 1

Is there any way of adding a control to a container within a structure declaration in VB .NET?
What I would really like to do is:

But this doesn't work in VB .NET. Is there anyway of achieving the same thing?
Private Sub NamesControl_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
cmbo1.Items.Clear()
[Code].....
How do I access parent form or container's other controls?
I have created a usercontrol that contains two rectangle shapes to create a unique button effect and a rounded-corner rectangle shape serving as a border to provide a look similar to a group box. It also contains two labels, one for use with a Text property of the control and the other to indicate the status of expansion of the control. The control is designed to collapse itself when the "button" is clicked leaving only the "button" visible. Clicking it again toggles this affect. I've dubbed it an ExpansionBar. It is also designed to be a container control so that I can add controls to it and allow these to disappear when the bottom portion collapses. The problem is that the controls contained in this usercontrol cannot be accessed during runtime. In other words, I can add a checkbox to it and it will disappear correctly when the control collapses, but I can't select the checkbox to check it... same thing with any other controls, you can see, but can't touch. I'm a novice developer, so I'm sure I'm missing something obvious.

In vb.net I would like to set all numericUpDown (NUD) controls to select their value when they receive focus, like a text box does. Do I need to write a GotFocus handler for each NUD? I know I can use widthBox.Select(0, widthBox.ToString().Length) to do the selection I just need to be able to apply this to all NUD GotFocus events.

View 7 RepliesThis is more of a ASP.NET question, but we are using VB.NET so it might be relevant. We just recently upgraded an ASP.NET 1.1 project to 4.0.Once we started running through the app to regression test it, we found that (consistently) if we made a call like DataBinder.Eval(Container, "PropertyName") from a User Control, ASP.NET complained that it could not find the PropertyName on the page.
PropertyName *does* exist on the User Control, but not on the page.This worked up until we upgraded to 4.0.The fix we found was instead of using "Container", we used "Me" to reference the control that the code was being called on.
start a desktop app. make the form 1- MDI Container = True. 2- Right to Left = True , 3- change the Right to left Layout = True.Set the background to any jpg image, when you run the form, the backgroud disappears.
View 3 RepliesVB 6.0 had a Set Pixel function, which is not available in VB.net. using a draw ellipse function with parameters specifying a circle one pixel in diameter.The above is painfully slow.I have been drawing graphics in a Bit Map using a Set Pixel function & then copying the entire graphic from Bit Map to a Picture Box. This results in nothing seeming to happen for several seconds & then the entire graphic is displayed in the Picture Box.
The above does the job, but it would be nice to display the graphic as it is being generated pixel by pixel, which was possible using VB 6.0, Might there be a Windows 7 API which would set a pixel? Might Microsoft be considering a Set Pixel function for Picture Box graphics?
