I haven't actually mastered VB.NET programming yet but I am already tired of the standard shaped and grey colored controls. Is there no other way (Programs or by code) of designing better looking controls of other shapes like circles or any shape I want and to give cool color and effects just the ones used in Windows Media Player v.11?
View 2 RepliesI've to show some PowerPacks.RectangleShape in a PowerPacks.ShapeContainer. A loop in my code add shapes to the container
(objshapecontainer.shapes.add(objshape), but at the end of the loop, only the last shape is displayed, in fact objshapecontainer.shapes.count doesn't exceed 1
I'm trying to make a -what i thought would be simple app.My intention was to build program that:1) i'd provide a grayscale image2) the program would count the black pixels the grey pixels the more grey pixels etc. (the hue) and the white3) would make the percentage sum of all pixels, that is: 300.000 black pixels (rgb 0 0 0) etc. given that 0 is the black, 100 the white. e.g a simple grayscale image is 55.2 white
This was my way and i don't think that is useful:
First of a button to convert the image to greyscale:
Dim bm as new Bitmap(source.Width,source.Height)
Dim x
Dim y
[CODE]...
Secondly, -and that's the stupid way- i did -or better i wanted to do- this: i put the code to dynamically create labels, each label having the colour of a pixel as background colour and as text the colour converted to rgb
The third step which i intended to do (i couldn't get pas two) was to sum up the labels etc.

View 1 RepliesI usually use standard button and do the settings like causevalidation etc if required.
i decided to use toolstrip and inserted some buttons but end up that it doesn't do the validation for control and also doesn't call leave event of textbox control.
so my question is, anyway to use regular button functionality for toolstripbutton or there is a way to add regular button on toolstrip.
I am trying to add a TabPage containing a UserControl to a TabControl at runtime, because the number of TabPages to add are determined at runtime.
The UserControl (objDataInfo) is just two Textboxes, two labels and two Radiobuttons, nothing too exciting...
The TextBoxes have their Anchor properties set to Left, Up, Right so they scale with the width of the usercontrol.
The TabPages are added in the constructor of the form, which takes the number of tabpages to create (n) as an argument:
vb.net
Dim cList As List(Of objDataInfo)
Public Sub New(ByVal n As Integer)
[Code]....
So... How can I get the standard BackColor of a standard TabPage?
(I tried leaving out the usercontrol all-together, but the TabPage still has a gray background...)
I am trying to set the checkbox to be grey. If the user clicks one box and its arguments over ride the other boxes then those will be greyed, but I have searched everywhere for this and cant find it. All I have seen was indeterminate but it doesn't necessarily grey it out, I don't like this.

I was wondering if there's anyway to color stuff in a textbox? example: I have a big textbox and if I type hi in that textbox I want that text to become grey, and if I type bye I want the text to become red, any ideas?
btw, I took your advice from my latest thread and installed a stable version of 2005
I did some thinking and come up with the idea "if textbox1.text ="hej" then" set a color but then I realized the whole text would become to coded text, hmm..

I don't know how to add colored text to a richtextbox.
To make already existing text colored, I have tried things like:
RichTextBox1.SelectionStart = RichTextBox1.Find("colored word")
RichTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Blue
RichTextBox1.SelectionLength = 0
..so it will change the color of the found word.
The problem is, when the "colored word" exists multiple times in the textbox, it will never change theirs color. It only searches for the first "colored word" and it wont affect the others.
It would be even better when someone knows how to directly add colored text instead of changing it when it's added.
I am trying to wrap my head around getting some blinking colored text and lasting for 3 seconds on the screen.

I have found many different ways on here how to do the blinking text. I just can't figure out how to do it for 3 seconds and then disappear. Here's a general idea of the code
