I'm trying to make a custom type editor for a generic Brush. The editor form is done, everything works, except the changes don't show up in the xxx.Designer.vb file. I think it's because VS doesn't know how to represent the Brush type. How do I do it?
View 6 RepliesI have a smart tag up and running for my user control but I also want to add a UITypeEditor collection editor to it as well. If I add the collection property to the smart tag in the usual way then I get the ellipse appearing as expected, then if you click on this you get the Collection Editor pop up but if you click ok in the Collection Editor I keep getting an error:
error using the drop down: unable to cast object of type BarChartControl.BarChartActionList to type BarChartControl.BarChart
In the DesignerActionList class I have the following:
Public Property Bars() As BarChartControl.BarItemCollection
Get
Return _linkedControl.Bars
End Get
[code]....
and in the GetSortedActionItems() of the DesignerActionList class I have:
items.Add(New DesignerActionPropertyItem("Bars", "Bars", "Bars", "Manage bar collection."))
Consider this scenario:
Class MyClass
Property SubProp1
End Property
[code]....
Next, I put an instance of MyButton into a property grid, expand property MC and edit SubProp2.From the type editor for SubProp2, I want to get hold of the attribute applied to property MC.Looking at the context,PropertyDescriptor.ComponentType, we arrive at Type: MyClass.If i look at the attributes applied to MyClass, though, it will only return the attributes applied directly to MyClass, and not the extra attribute applied to the property MC.
Public Pixels(0 To 95, 0 To 127) As Variant Red = Pixels(X, Y) And &HFF i get this code from VB6, and when i transfer to VB05 i got problem said " Operator 'And' is not defined for type 'Color' and type 'Integer'. " i sent to VS2005

I want to get all of the Brushes, this is basically pseudocode which will explain what I'm trying to do:
For Each B in Brushes
'Something with Brushes
End For
Brushes is a type though so how would I be able to do that?
If I use the following code and I select the font 'Brush Script MT', I get an error that the font does not support Bold.However, when I use this font in MS Word, I can make it Bold .Private Sub btnBold_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnBold.Click

View 2 RepliesI would like to create a reflection of a text on an image. I have used so far this:
g.DrawString(TextBox3.Text, myFont, myBrush,and i have tried some methods but none seems to work.
for example a g. transform used with matrix could do that
If I could use the DrawRectangle method to cast an Inverse colored rectangle on a graphic, it would be easy, but seaching through all the brush/ image attribute/texturebrush members, I cannot find the "inverse" option.The direct manipulation of a bitmap using bitmap.setpixel(x,y,color(255 Not getRed,255 Not getGreen, 255 Not getBlue)) is probably what I will use if nobody can show me a more "SPECKY" way.[code]

View 1 RepliesI've been trying to create a random brush color generator, Something like this code (it creates random colors...)
vb.net

So, reading around varous places, (MSDN, these forums, CodeProject etc.) it's clear that you should dispose of any Pen's, Brushes etc. that you create and that perhaps the best way is via aUsing block. But some behaviour has confused me and I think it might be related to the color I use when I create the Pen / Brush (read this in a post in the C# forums).It now works since I've used a Using block to replace the Dim....Dispose() shown below. But I don't understand why because all the Using block does is ensure that the used object is disposed of. It's just short-hand for Dim....Dispose() - at least that's what I understand

View 1 RepliesI place these 2 questions in this forum simply 'cause those that know GDI+ best are probably .Net vs. VB6 classic users... So here it goes.I'm using GDI+ flat file to generate a textured brush with image attributes. Creating these are no problem, but I can't find documentation that says whether disposing of the brush will dispose the original image & attributes handles I've assigned to the brush or whether I need to destroy those also? I can't locate anything that says whether GDI+ copies the handles or uses the ones I provided. Destroying the handles well before the brush is destroyed does no damage. Thus my assumption is that the handles are copied. But you know what they say about assumptions.
2. Likewise I use a GDI+ function to return the image assigned to a textured brush. Again, I don't know if that returned image handle is to be disposed by me or not. The returned handle changes every time I call the function, so I'm assuming that I should be destroying it. Thanx to all that can shed any light whether from personal experience or pointing me to some black & white documentation.

This maybe a long shot because the treeview I am talking about it a component one control. Basically I build a menu structure up using a treeview. But as a build the menu if an item equals a certain value I want to recursively go back up the tree expanding any branch nodes which works until I get to the very top. Here is the
Private Sub ExpandTree(ByRef Item As C1TreeViewNode)
Dim ParentNode As C1TreeViewNode
If Item.Owner = "" Then
[code]....
Basically on the 'If Item.Owner = "" Then' what I need to do is trap for the type of the Item.Owner because when it gets to the top the owner is no longer a C1TreeViewNode type but a C1TreeView and I can't work out how to trap for this. Basically once is gets to C1TreeView exit the loop.
I need some kind of structure where I can store data with a unique copy of each item (I mean that there can't be more than one of each). Something like the "set" type in the good ol' Turbo Pascal.
