I am trying a little demo project to create my own Caption Bar. Basically i have a form with a panel docked to the top.
You can use the mouse to drag the panel around (which moves the forum) Problem is the cursor is always located in the upper top left. I am trying to move the form around but to leave the cursor at the point it is currently at on the panel
My code so far is below
#Region "Point Variables"
Dim LOC_Form As New Point(0, 0)
#End Region
[Code]....
I am dragging the panel from the middle, but the form moves to the cursor point. I have tried calculations like Cursor Position - Form Location etc but cant get it right
I have one form lays on the top of a form or a panel. I would like be able to drag the top form within the boundary of the bottom form or panel. How can I do that?
Just like the iPhone where you press down and move your finger up or down and the items on the page move.
I am tring to do the same type of affect with the mouse and a panel.
When a user clicks the left mouse button and moves the mouse up or down moving the panel up or down. but I want to be able to click anywhere on the screen.
I currently use this code to move a control I have created (JobBox) around a form with the mouse.[code]...
I had thought I could use the MouseDown eent to take the control out of the panel and make it belong to the form and then check on the MouseUp event that the location of the control is within one of the other panels.
Ok i got a problem when ever i move a panel and a picturebox at the same time.

Here is my code:
I am currently making a VB.Net game for my end of the project, but I have found myself in a deadlock. I was wondering how to make labels move up and down in my panel by themselves at a set speed. Also left and right by themselves. I've tried a couple different methods but none seem to work. They either lag or I can't seem to set where there bounds are.
Is there any way you can move a panel using the arrow keys during runtime?and is tehre a way of popping random objects in a game. Like you have this spaceship moving and your "Alien foes" or whatever attacks you. So you want them to pop up randomnly every few seconds or so. How?
I have setup a small app to track company info and purchases, etc. I decided to move a panel with textboxes from Form1 to Form2. I did not move any code and after some thinking on it, I decided to move the panel back to form1 and continue with my original plan. Trouble came when I tried to run the app. The ide displays it perfectly but none of my code is working. Here is what I noticed ...
My original code from a textbox ...
Code: Private Sub TxtCompany_GotFocus(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) If TxtCompany.Text <> "" Then TempCompany = TxtCompany.Text TxtCompany.Text = "" End If End Sub
This used to work before I moved the panel. I went back to txtCompany's events and doubleclicked "got focus" to start a new event to see if it was the same as what I already had. It displayed this ...
Code: Private Sub TxtCompany_GotFocus1(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TxtCompany.GotFocus End Sub
It's like I somehow created a dup of panel and lost it's original status and now the ide wants me to make a copy of the code. How do I get the ide to see the panel and it's contents as the original?
Private Sub Form1_MouseEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.MouseEnter For i As Integer = 38 To 2 Step -1 Panel1.Height = i Next
[CODE]...
I have 2 panels on the form butttt for panel one i want to slide height and panel 2 i want it to slide width.
I need to center the red panel in the middle of the dark grey panel, when you resize the form the red panel should be in the middle, and the red panel can't be resize, anyone have a code or property to do this?

[Code]...
but when the form opens it flickers a lot. so i want move the new form behind the main form while it loads so the user does not see the flicker. once it is done loading i will set the form to topmost. how do i move the new form behind the main form?
well i successfully docked a perpixel alpha form with the main form(form1). but the perpixel alpha form always appears at the top left corner of the screen and when i move the main form the form(perpixel alpha form) inside it dosen't move it stays at the top left corner. ALWAYS. to dock the perpixel alpha form i used
What is the best way to resize & move a form using just VB commands? I have a form that I need to set the Height and Top props, problem is that takes two calls and there is a noticable flicker. I tried using SuspendLayout/ResumeLayout, DoubleBuffered, swaping the top and height calls around, etc, but nothing seems to help. The test forms only have one small listview and one or two buttons.

I want to add a MDI parent form to a panel on a base form, the problem is that i must set the toplevel = false when add the parent form to the base form, but if i set its toplevel to false i can't set isMDIParent parameter to true. how can i fix this conflict?
I am having two forms say form a and formb and having two panels in formb and i want to show this panels from forma based on some condition and the code which i am using is[code]...
I am trying to Anchor a Form (Top, Bottom, Left & Right) in a panel.
I have tried:
frmFnct.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Top Or AnchorStyles.Left Or AnchorStyles.Bottom Or AnchorStyles.Right
This doesn't error but as the parent Form is re-sized, the panel re-sizes but the Form that is loaded in the Panel does not re-size.
I guess I can use the Parent Forms Resize Event and size the form to the panel dimensions but just wondering if there is a way to use built in functionality?
Taking the following code into the account: [code] This makes my entire form client area act like a cpation bar and i can darg it using any any part of it! Becuase i had a borderless form that is why i used this code (which is definitely not mine - no offense) . This works perfect in windows 7 but in lower OS versions it acts weired like even if user makes little dragging on the form occasionally this triggers and takes the form out of the bound of screen! I was wondering can i alter the above code somewhat like instead of intercepting the form area as caption bar it detects a panel (docked at the top giving illusion of a caption bar) and make that my form move. I know you brothers will make me say that using the mouse down mouse move and mouse up events of panel i can attain this, definitely i can but thought of some more professional approach. url...
My name is DN and I'm creating a strategy game. I have created a panel and I have put a PictureBox on it. Now, the problem is here: The PictureBox is bigger than the panel. I know that we can solve the problem with putting to the panel two scrollbars, but as in a good game scrollbars should not exist in the main picture (map). I want for the people to control the map with keys (up,down,left,right) and the scrollbars should not be visible.
Is it possible to resize a form automatically when a panel is made visible or invisible? Is it required to have the panels directly on the form? I am trying to do this with some panels within panels and having quite the problem.
