.net - AutoEllipsis In StatusStrip Label?

Sep 5, 2009

I'm coding a Windows Forms App that has a StatusStrip that displays status informations to the user, and hints when the mouse is over relevant things. However, when the program is on it's minimal window size, the text sometimes is bigger than the whole StatusStrip, and the label simply dissapears. There must be a workaround to this, ideally I'd like it to auto ellipsis when the text is bigger than the window allows. But how?

Lost Menu And Statusstrip

May 21, 2012

when I starded to "finish" my appliaction. The whole MenuStrip and StatusStrip have disappeared!

This wasn't the first time when I lost menu but this time I have made so big work for it so I really dont want to start again as I did last time...

I read another thread but I didn't get my problem solved. I think I lost my menu after I deleted "loading.png" image from resources. I'm not sure does this cause the problem but I think so.

I have all the codes in form1.vb and in form1.designer.vb in looks that:

Is there any hope to get menu and statusstrip back? :( Or is there any fast way to rebuild them if I have all the codes ready? This was almost finished... now it doesnt look finished at all.

Minimize MDIchild Windows To The StatusStrip?

Apr 15, 2009

how to minimize MDIchild windows to the StatusStrip...or is there another toolbar object in VB.NET (2008)? I have a menu layered over my MDI Parent window (which is always maximized) and if I minimize another child window, i can't see it anywhere (unless I minimize the menu too, but I took that ability away from the user)... I think I know how to do this through the menustrip at the top of the window (click on open windows....like in excel or word), but I'd like to see the windows minimized in a toolstrip of the MDI parent.

ParentForm Statusstrip Label Update By Timer

Nov 26, 2010

i have a MDI application with parent and childforms.

i have a global timer in a module that makes a com search and writes the result to a parentform status strip label.

the problem is that the label do not change.

i have tried the following:

1) on timer.elapsed

parentForm.statusstriplabel.text =...

2) to create a delegate and invoke a parent form function

3) to create and raise an event

although all 3 seened to run the label didn't changed.

the timer was created in a different module than the parentform class for many reasons.

one of them is because i want to access the timer.start , timer.stop from all the childforms

when i tried a local timer to paretform worked perfect but i couidnt start and stop it from the childs

Added A StatusStrip Control, Made Some Changes To Adding Items And Changed The Names?

May 12, 2011

In the windows form designer, I added a StatusStrip control, made some changes to adding items and changed the names of the items to names I would recognize, for instance I changed "ToolStripStatusLabel3" to "lblMode". All was fine until I inadvertenly deleted the StatusStrip. Now when I add it back to the form and try to change the name I get an error saying that the name "lblMode" is already in use. And sure enough it is listed in the items of the properties window, but not dislayed anywhere.

I am not sure how to resolve this. I know there is a window, I think its called "Project Designer" or something similar that is code where controls get added but I CANNOT find this window to view the code.

i have a win forms application and have a statusLabel control on statusStrip control. while the app is performing import from xls sheet via oledb, i'd like statusLabel to count elapsed time second by second. in my case statusLabel counts elapsed time, but it shows 1st second, then it freezes and finally shows the last second. i'd like this statusLabel to show counting no matter what happens to form. i tried to use thread, delegate but it's no use and now i'm running out of ideas what to do. this is the code i'm using:Private _fileExtension As String Private _hours, _mins, _secs As Integer Private WithEvents _swatch As System.Threading.Timer Private Delegate Sub XLSOleDBImportDelegate()
