Force The Form To Change Its Title Through Code?

Mar 12, 2010

1. How do I force the Form to change its title through code? I tried: Me.Name = "New Title" during a button press, but that didn't work.

2. How do I make it so a form cannot be resized by the user at all? ie. they can't drag the sides.

3. I have made it to when I save in my application the status bar displays "Save Successful". How would I make it stay with that text a few seconds before displaying "Running..." instead?

VS 2008 - Using Cases To Change Background Colour

Mar 18, 2010

I am working with cases, I'm only learning it so far, but just can't get a drop down menu to work that would change the background of a Textbox.

Private Sub cbColours_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cbColours.SelectedIndexChanged
Select Case colours
Case Is = "Red"
txtSpace.BackColor = Color.Red
[Code] .....
It isn't doing anything at all...

In the dropdown menu, it has
Red, Blue and Green one per line
When the value (e.g. Green) is clicked, it will then change the Textbox to the colour selected.

VS 2008 : Change Textbox's Default "read Only" Colour?

Mar 27, 2009

I have a large number of textboxes on a form that are set to read-only until the user clicks an Unlock button. I have left the default colouring in place (no code required), so the boxes are light grey when read-only and change to white when not read-only. The problem I have is that Windows Vista's colours are so insipid and pale that it's hard to spot the difference on some monitors. It all looks good on an XP desktop but the difference is too subtle on a Vista PC.

Can the default colouring of a read-only textbox be changed? I know I can change it in code with backcolor but I don't want to put loads of code behind my Unlock button. That's the way I did it in VB6 and I want to get away from that. I just want to use the default "greying out" action when making the texbox read-only, but change to a slightly darker grey.

Below is a short section of code from an application I am working on. What I am trying to do is to get a counter value to show when the application is minimized. When restored back to normal state, the name string is applied. It works, but it takes several minutes to change, and then never updates again. Not sure what the issue is.

I also tried a direct string conversion in the "elseif" part. No difference.

Change Colour Of Circle?

Nov 5, 2011

I have created a program that Draw a circle and then you can move it around a picturebox. I have made code so that it changes colour but instead of changing the colour of the circle already been drawn it creates a new circle which when you overlap the original circle with the new circle it cuts part of it.So what I wanted it to do when I change the colour of the circle it changes the colour of the circle already been drawn instead of creating a new circle.

[Code]...

Also I can't use the X and Y coordinate input to move the circle to the entered coordinates.
