VS 2008 - BorderStyle Changed To None When Maximizing Form

Mar 26, 2009

I have a normal form (FormBorderStyle = Sizeable). When the user maximizes the form, the form's border should disappear and fully cover the screen. Like so:

vb
Private Sub frmVideo_SizeChanged(ByVal sender As Object,
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.SizeChanged
If Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized Then
'Remove border
Me.FormBorderStyle = Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.None
'Bring to front
Me.TopMost = True
End If
End Sub

Problem is, when the form gets maximized and border changed to None, the form doesn't cover the whole screen. The form gets the same height as when it is maximized with a titlebar on top. So, the form is about 20 pixels too short, leaving most of the Windows taskbar uncovered. So, apparently, if the FormBorderStyle changes after the form has maximized, the change in size is not corrected. How do I change a form's size when it's maximized or how do I change the FormBorderStyle before maximization is finished?

VB 2008 .suo File Needs To Be Changed/recreated Because A Path Has Changed. All Other Files Are OK

May 5, 2012

I changed my Username on my computer from i.e. "xxxxxx x xxxxx" to "Dennis"

VB 2008 during a compile gave me the following error: Error reading icon 'C:Usersxxxxxx x xxxxxAppDataRoamingMicrosoftVBExpress9.0VSProjectApplication.ico' -- The system cannot find the path specified.

The file "VSProjectApplication.ico" is in 'C:UsersDennisAppDataRoamingMicrosoftVBExpress9.0'

Somewhere in the VB2008 "configuration" files I believe that I need to manually change the old path to the new path.

I found the old path in the ".suo" file. The ".suo" file is not a text file. How can I edit the .suo file, save it so that it will work?

Enter Button And Maximizing?

Jan 17, 2011

I recently entered a VB.NET class in my school. I suddenly had an interest in it, and I decided to make something on my own. Right now, we're just working on how to switch from one form to one form [E-Z stuff, me.hide and then *formname*.show] decided to install the 2010 .NET program, and I wanted to make my own web browser. Now I'm stuck on it. e everything working, except a few minor kinks. I wanted to know how the form can be maximized once it has been opened, and, if I press the enter key, I want the URL to be what was in the text box.

Public Class frmShank
rivate Sub btnBack_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnBack.Click

Saving Changed Data Before DataViewGrid Selection (Row) Changed?

Jan 20, 2010

on my Form I have a DataViewGrid and some textboxes with a save button (they are filled with additional data of the selected row).Save is disabled first, when I change something in the textboxes the save button is enabled.When the user changes a gow in the grid, I want to ask before changing the grid row, if he wants to save (if the button is enabled).I am using RowEnter but this is too late, then the selected row already changed (and my textboxes already got new data)...What event can I use to ask if I should save stuff before the user changes a row?Something like BeforeRowChanging with a chance to cancel changing the row?

Use Fixed3D Borderstyle, The Controls?

Sep 26, 2010

In VB 2008 when I use Fixed3D Borderstyle, the controls (like a panel) have a sunken look: they appear to lie
deeper than the form. In many applications I see, controls in 3D seem to lie upon the form, in stead of sunken down. Is there a way to achieve this in VB 2008?

How To Set Borderstyle Of DataGridView Column At Runtime

Dec 7, 2011

I have a readonly datagridview that is bound to a datasource. It has two columns. Now I want the first column to have no cell borderstyle; and the second one to have 'All' (i.e. all sides of the cell shall have a border) as cell borderstyle. Before binding the datagridview to the datasource, I'm writing something like mentioned below but it's taking no effect. Assume the column in question is named DisplayName.

Code:
Dim newStyle As New DataGridViewAdvancedBorderStyle()
With newStyle.Top = DataGridViewAdvancedCellBorderStyle.Single
.Left = DataGridViewAdvancedCellBorderStyle.Single
.Bottom = DataGridViewAdvancedCellBorderStyle.Single
.Right = DataGridViewAdvancedCellBorderStyle.SingleEnd With
DisplayName.CellTemplate.AdjustCellBorderStyle(newStyle, newStyle, True, True, True, True)

Move And Re-size A Window That Has BorderStyle = None With MediaPlayer As Child

Jul 10, 2011

What I am doing is making a Media Player, but I am making it to be some sort like BS Player.

The Video part of the player is on its own with no border and then there is going to be a separate Form for the controls. (I might need help with that later) But the first thing that I have to do is make the window movable and re-sizable by dragging the Media Player (WMP). WMP is taking up the whole screen of the Form so there is no where to click on the original Form. If possible, I would like it to show contents while dragging, ignoring the Windows Appearance and Performance. If that can't be done or is to much work, I will settle for just the border of the Form being showed while moved.

For re-sizing, the media player has to stay the same size as the form, but it also has to stay the same Ratio of the video. So as long as I can specify the current height and width of the window and also get then get the width while the window is being re-sized, I can get the height that the window needs to be by using this formula.

Window.y / Window.x * Sized Window.x = New Window.y .

I know that may sound complicated or maybe I am making it harder then it actually is, this is just how I know how to do it. I will explain what each variable in the Formula means.

Window.y is the current height of the window

Window.x is the current width of the window

Sized Window.x is the width of the window while it is being re-sized

New Window.y is the final height for the new size of the window

Prevent Value Changed Events From Firing On Form Initialization?

Jun 30, 2010

Consider a simple VB.NET form with a couple of radio buttons and a checkbox.

Each of the radio buttons has a CheckedChanged handler setup that performs some action based on the state of the checkbox.

My problem is, when I initialize on the default radiobutton to be checked (from the designer properties window) the CheckedChanged event is fired for that radio button, but the Checkbox hasn't been initialized yet so I either get a null pointer exception or the wrong value is used in the handler. Either way, I don't want that handler code to be run unless the user picks a radio button after the form has been loaded.

I currently get around this by not initializing the radio button, but I need to set that default eventually and the best place is from the designer. I also can add a boolean field that's not set to true until the form is fully loaded and not process the events if that is false, but it's a dirty hack.

What can I do to prevent that handler from running its code?
