VS 2008 Form.Show / Form.WindowState?
Oct 26, 2010I have a dual monitor setup on my computer. My program has multiple forms. I've designed the program to check which monitor the main form is currently on and to open the secondary forms on the current monitor. When the main form is on the primary monitor the secondary forms open as FormWindowState.Normal which is the design-time setting for the secondary forms. If the main form is on the secondary monitor and I click to open a secondary form then the secondary form is to be displayed as FormWindowState.Maximised.
[Code]...
So I moved the Form.Show line to after the Form.WindowState line. This works fine when the Form.Show process is very quick. The problem is that one of the secondary forms downloads some information from the internet so it takes about a second to finish the Form_Load process. When I had Form.Show first the form would not appear on screen until the Form_Load process is complete, so the delay was in the form appearing at all which is how I prefer it. With Form.Show last the form appears on screen immediately but appears mostly blank and unresponsive until the Form_Load process completes.
I would prefer that the form not appear at all until the Form_Load process is complete but I would like it to appear in an already Maximised state. Is this achieveable? It doesn't seem that complicated but I just can't figure it out.

Jan 13, 2010I'm working on a simple base form in which all the other forms in the project will inherit.This base form only adds 5 properties (at the moment) dealing with painting a gradient background. The problem I'm facing right now is when I change a property on Form1 (the test form) and click run it doesn't show that change. I also checked the .designer.vb file and when I make a change it's not added to the code behind file, I'm at a loss right now to why
View 5 RepliesVS 2008 Form Freezes On .show()?
Jun 24, 2009My mate & Myself are currently building a IRC Client, a problem we have come across is when opening a chatroom the form Freezes for example.
We are currently using arrays so we can open multiple chat rooms and at this current time to open a chat room we use
Channels(ChatIndex).Show()
The form opens but freezes.
I have also tried using
Channels(ChatIndex).ShowDialog()
Application.DoEvents()
Using the above code, the form does not freeze but appears we can not access any of the controls such as (RTB)
What would be causing the form to freeze on .show(), Has anyone else had any similar issues?

View 6 RepliesVS 2008 - Creating Instances Of Controls On Form?
Sep 14, 2010Is it possible to create instances of controls on a form ? Of course I mean visually , not just by code. After all, these languages define themselves as "Visual" so they should provide that possibility. It is important for the instances to be visible during design time because otherwise we could only guess where those controls might "land". Nevertheless , I have the feeling this is not possible in VB .NET but still I thought I should ask first ...

VS 2008 Error Occurred Creating The Form?
Nov 16, 2009I don't know what's wrong. I can't figure out what's causing this error. I've tried placing a breakpoint on the load event but this error happens before. I tried a breakpoint at the form's class, but it crashes still. I haven't done anything major, just added a couple GUI elements, and I've tried deleting them to get to the point I was at before this error, but no luck.
