VB - Set The Windows Size To Rows*(circleSize + CircleSpacing) - CircleSpacing
Feb 27, 2011
I have an annoying problem: we're supposed to write a small game for university in visual basic, now my gamefield consists of 7x6 circles, so it has six rows. Between every circle there is certain spacing. Now i set the windows size to rows*(circleSize + circleSpacing) - circleSpacing. With a size of 100 and a spacing of 50 this gives me a total size of 850, and when i ask for Me.size.height it says: 850, but the window cuts of about 25-30 pixels on the bottom, why is that? I made a button with a size of 840x840 and location 0x0, and it is not fully displayed although the height of the window is 850...?

How do I configure the rowheights so that the top and bottom rows (menu bar and status bar) size to fit the height of their content, and the middle row (main content), fills the remaining available space in the program?I can't fix the height of the top/bottom rows because the height of their content can vary.
<Window>
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition/>

In Windows it's possible to Increase the size of on-screen fonts. We realized that too late and if a user does this our programm is unusable because he can not see all texts and controls. We're bringing out a release and we do not have the time to fix that.
So: How can I disable or ignore this increasing from windows application-wide? I tried setting autoscale to none but it is not working. Isn't possible to ignore that setting for the whole application? How can I do that?I know that this is a week solution because the user has a reason why he wants to increase the font size. But we can not fix this problem within two weeks but want to provide an application somebody can work.

Whenever a person adjusts how big they want there display, it will distort my application, it will make images overlap and will make text bigger.
Is there some code I can do to tell my program to ignore the size set by the display on windows?

In the Windows control panel you can adjust the Display properties for which text size to use between the default value which is the smallest size text and 2 larger sizes. How can you get which text size the Display properties are set to for one's computer through Visual Basic code?

I have a VB.NET application that uses the AXWindowMediaPlayer ActiveX to embed mpg videos to my application. I have used the Play/pause/stop Ctlcontrols a lot but now i am stuck as i needed to change the video size of the playing video from 100 to 200% hence my Questions:- How can i by code change the video size of the video being played? by Video size i do not mean the control's size.. but the Video being played inside it. for example, i could want the videos to play at 200% and not at 100%.- Is there a way to check the dimensions of the video being played so that i can by code change the video size if required as per the video.

I have a Windows application form. Directly on the form I have a lable ("Customer Names"), a ComboBox (pulling actually names from a database) , and a Buton to add a customer to the database if i choose. Additionally I have ControlTab(3 tabs) that has "fields" and its own Buttons to insert data into a different table. The first 2 tabs have textBoxes, which are completely functional, but the 3rd tab has a "DataGridView"

I have inherited from a Windows.Forms.Listbox so I could override the OnPaint and OnDrawItem methods in an effort to highlight specific items and alternate backcolors. I am also skipping some DrawItem events to prevent flickering.Everything is working fine, however when I select items in the listbox, it looks like the font is shrinking or becoming more compressed.Then when I mouse leave, the font goes back to its normal size and appearance but the same items are still selected (which is correct). During debugging the font never changes nor do any of its properties, but it does end up looking different when the item is selected and the mousedown event just happened.

Now all went well about from using the structure correctly. The working of the structure was perfect. How ever i missed Two important issues. The structure needed a fixed size of 10 items (9 in programming terms starting from 0) And also out of the 5 items allowed to be chosen as one of the member types for the structure a limit of 5 items of that particular type.

I have a label which appears full screen on a projector (VGA 2). In this label I will be sending strings. Some one liner's, some wrapped paragraphs. Some multi-line with carrage returns. My goal is to have the font dynamically change size to be as large as possible without overflowing the fixed label size.

Whats the font size real meaning? since when i use Arial font size 10 in the report its gonna take different space than the textbox im using (Both using exactly same font type/size/unit) its kinda if i set 10 milimiters to the font size why would the i and M for example have so diferent size.
i wish it was like in the Notepad where all the letters take the same space. what i need its to give a certain texbox(in the report) with auto grow to have always the same lines of height but its not posible to calculate it from vb b4 being inputed to the report.
