Starting Properties Of Objects In Winforms Form?

Jun 11, 2012

In my software course, each time we submit an assignment, we have to include a document with the starting properties of each object in a form.

E.g.

TextBox1
Location: 241, 115
Name: TextBox1
Size: 100, 20
TabIndex: 0

It's a real pain to scroll through the properties viewer and copy and paste each customised value for 30+ objects on a form... I was wondering if there'd be an easy piece of code or way about getting an (at least partially) automated printout/view of all the properties of the objects.

Was thinking some sort of private sub I could past into the bottom of the program and run on load, that gets all objects, and outputs the non-default properties to a report or something?

Bind A WinForms TreeView Control To Some User-defined Objects?

Oct 16, 2011

I'm trying to bind a WinForms TreeView control to some user-defined objects. In particular, I'd like to bind aTreeNode.Text property to myObject.Name. My strategy is to create xTreeNode, a subclass of TreeNode, add a DataBindings collection, and expose its Text property. This would allow me to write some code like this:

Dim oBinding as Binding
Dim bs as New BindingSource
bs.DataSource = myObj

Access Objects / Properties In An Application From Another DLL

Jan 31, 2006

I have an application which is grouped in a MainApplication and serveral Modules (DLL's) The Main Application is basicly a Form with a NavigationBar on the Left Side (like in Outlook 2003) and an MDI-Parent. There is also a Simple Login Routine on this Form. I store the UserName after Loggingn to a Property. The DLL's holds functionallity and Forms for various Sections for example there is a Employee.dll which holds functions and a form to show all Employees.

On Loading of the Main Application I loop trough all dll's in a "Module"-Folder and extract NavigationItems from them which I add to the MainForms NavigationPanel. I don't have a reference to the Modules because I want to make it as flexible as possible so that it is possible to delete a Dll form the Module directory in order to remove the functionality from the MainApplication. The Modules could work also without the MainApplication if they are Complied as an exe insted of DLL of course. This works fine so far.

IDE :: Any Way To Change Default Properties For Different Objects?

Mar 8, 2012

Is it possible to change the default properties for different objects in the VB6 IDE (I'm sure any version would be similar, but this is the one we are currently using in my programming class in school). For example, is there anyway that automatically, when I create a Label, that it could already have AutoSize set to false, and BorderStyle to Fixed3D, etc.? I feel as if it would work greatly with the amount of time taken to layout my programs.

VS 2010 Custom Objects And Properties

Nov 13, 2011

I'm working on a project where I need to information on all the monitors connected to a computer and then write a configuration file based on that. I can already get the screen information by creating a new instance of screen and reading the information such as index, bounds and everything else.I'm trying to create a virtual screen object to hold the information from the screen so I can work with it, or add other properties to it.[code]This all works perfectly how I want it to. Except I would like to do one more thing. How can I make it so that instead of getting Virtual_Screen.Top, I could get Virtual_Screen.Bounds.Top? That way I could create other properties such as Virtual_Screen.Border.Top..I have no idea how to code, or what that would be called. It's hard to search for something you don't know the name of.

Displaying List Of Objects As Single Column In A Bound Gridview (Winforms)?

Mar 15, 2010

I have a gridview that is bound to a datasource on a Windows Form (VB.NET). The grid displays a list of "certifications", and each "certification" can be associated with many languages. So in the grid, I'd like to display "languages" as a column, and display a comma delimited list of the language names for each "certification".

In the "certification" class, one of the properties is a list of "language" objects, and each "language" has an ID (guid), name (string), and value (integer).

So in the datasource, I have the list of "languages", but I can't figure out how to display them in a column on the grid. The gridview won't let me add the language list property as a column.

So is the ONLY way to add a new property on the "certification" class, which returns a string that contains the comma delimited list, and show THAT on the grid? Or is there a way to display that list of "languages"?

Something Like Operator Overloading For Only Part Of An Objects Properties?

Aug 21, 2009

For good reasons I would like to have something like truckA = truckB + truckC where only the loads of the trucks are added, not the license plate numbers. Also I don't really want to return a new object (lots of overhead), just change one or two of the properties. Only thing I can come up with is truckA.Load = truckB.Load + truckC.Load, or at best truckA.Load = truckB + truckC which still doesn't look elegant, and - worse - still requires the creation of a new Load object.(this is just a way of stating my problem; the real objects are quite big and complicated) Currently I have a Sub isSumOf so the code reads TruckA.isSumOf(truckB, TruckC)

Sorting Objects In Arraylist By One Of The Object's Properties?

Aug 30, 2011

I have a group of objects stored in an arraylist. These custom type objects have a number of properties from their underlying class . I want to use one of the properties to sort the array. I cannot determine which Array.Sort method to use.

I want to sort based on an integer property. Virtually every example I can find involves sorting strings.

So, assume the Objects have the following properties.

Obj.name as string
Obj.ID as integer
Obj.Alive as boolean

The objects are kept in an arraylist called FriendsOfMine.

I want to be able to order the list by Obj.ID, both ascending and descending in value.

Accessing Hidden Properties Of Excel 2007 VBa Objects

Jun 22, 2009

I need to migrate from Excel 2003 VBA to Excel 2007 VBA. When Microsoft introduced Excel 2007 it removed many objects from the previous versions and added some new objects. Also it hid some properties of particular objects. These hidden properties can be viewed by going to the object browser, right clicking any object and selecting "Show Hidden Members". My problem is I need to access these hidden properties. Is there any way I can access these properties. I can successfully migrate from Excel 2003 VBa to Excel 2007 VBA with the same functionality?

Showing Properties Of Child Objects In The Property Grid?

Mar 9, 2010

I have a custom class (Class1) with a bunch of properties. One of the properties of this class is another custom class (Class2) with its own properties.I have a property grid with the selected object set to Class 1. I can see Class 2 as a property, but i would like to expand Class 2 to show its properties in the same property grid.

Im basically trying to do the exact same thing as the Font Class on a form. If you look at the properties of a form in the designer, you can see the font property. You can then expand that to show the properties of the font class.

Implementation - Loop To Update Properties Of Each Object Of A Set Of Custom Objects

Jan 4, 2010

I am using a loop to update properties of each object of a set of custom objects. The routine knows which controls to update because the controls value is not empty, I don't want the routine setting the corresponding properties to nothing when the control is empty. Now I know how to do this perfectly fine with IF statements such as:

CODE:

But this feels really redundant doing that same IF block over and over for each property/control combination, I thought about creating a separate routine that takes the control as an argument and does all the repetitive IF blocks but I don't know how I could also pass an object property to tell the routine to update that particular property.

Starting Location For A Form?

Oct 4, 2008

I'm a bit confused when it comes to setting the start location of a form, relative to another form.I know how to set the start location for a form, however, I have a "main" form, which is behind this form. The main form will be displaying different images, labels, ect. I need the second form to display at the bottom of the main form. The main form's resolution is 800x600, and the bottom form is 800x65. I tried to set the bottom form's location to 0,535, which WOULD make it right at the bottom of the main form, but it seems that it puts it at that location relative to the user's display resolution.So basically, I just need help with getting this form to appear at the bottom of the main form. I read a bit about "containers", but am not sure exactly if they would work for this, and if they did, how exactly I would incorporate them into my situation.

VS 2008 Starting A Form On A New Thread?

Oct 10, 2010

Ok so my main form takes around 5 seconds to load i can't make it so that my load subs are on a seperate thread because too many cross thread calls being made besides i want a splash screen anyway i want a splash screen on a seperate thread that can update status while main thread is loading this way main thread carries the load subs and invokes status label changes in the splash form which is on another thread

this is my code

Dim SPForm As SplashForm
Public Sub LoaderSub(ByVal Splashed As Boolean)
If Splashed = False Then

[Code]...

what happens is the splash form shows and so does the main form but they both lag for 5 seconds (as if they are both on main thread) how do i make it so that the splash form loads from the new thread? I thought the way i did it that's what should happen...

EDIT: also why did code wraps failed to show proper vb code?

WaitWindow.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.CenterParent
WaitWindow.Show()

and this is just being ignored. The window opens at random locations. If I change it to CenterScreen, that works! But I don't want it center screen, I want it centered on the parent. Can I manually set the location? I am using VB 2008 Express and the wait form is a plain windows form.
