VS 2008 Default System Selected Highlight?
Aug 31, 2009
I am not sure if it is possible, but I would like to be able to provide a custom "SelectedHighlight" color when an item is selcted in both a treeview and a listview (Better yet, any) control.
While I am a fan of sticking with established convention in most cases, There are times and places when I would like to do this.
A. Is it possible to do this? And by possible, I am looking to Override the Default system SystemHighlight at runtime, for only a particular control. I am NOT looking to change global system settings (at least, outside of any time when the particular control has the focus.
B. I haver tried a few searches, and I will contiinue (Try searching for any combination of "System", Color", "Selection", and "Highlight" and see what comes back!).

I have a datagrid pulling data from a database and displaying it. I need to be able to highlight a row when a row is selected. I have looked over the internet and found using a checkbox is best. However the users don't want this as it is not intuative enough. They want to click anywhere in the row, and highlight it like you would in a windows based system.
I have added the following code in the item created event
e.Item.Attributes.Add("onclick", "this.style.backgroundColor=''Green")
however i need some way of deselecting this when they click on another row.

I have a Listview that will display all System Services on the local machine. I also have settings to change states of the services as a group as well as single selected item. My question is, Is there any way when the user selects which option to change, to highlight all the services that were changed in the listview, making it easier to see what the user has changed .

The code below creates a highlight rect on each of the selected items in a listbox. How can I do the same without selection but rather on mousemove above an item?

If e.Index <> -1 Then
e.DrawBackground()
If (e.State And DrawItemState.Selected) = DrawItemState.Selected Then

I have a WinForms application (VS 2008, .NET 3.5) that has a form with two different group boxes, and inside of each group box are different sets of radio buttons. When I run the application, the first group box automatically has the first radio button in it already selected, and the second group box does not have a radio button selected by default.
I have looked through all the properties of the radio buttons and the group boxes, and cannot figure out what the difference is between the two.I would like both group boxes to have all radio buttons unselected when the form is first opened.Also, I looked through the Designer.vb file for the form, and could not find anything unusual going on in there either.

I've got several rectangular panels in a row on a form, and I'm trying to figure out the best way to "highlight" each panel whenever the user clicks on it (so that the user has a nice visual representation of which panel is currently "selected"). And whenever they click on a different panel, the previously selected panel should be "un-highlighted", and the newly selected panel should be "highlighted", etc. And if they click on something other than a panel, then none of the panels should be highlighted.
I think the best way to "highlight" a panel would be to change the color of that panel's border from black to yellow. But unfortunately, it appears that the color of a panel's "border" cannot be changed (not that I could figure out, at least).
how to accomplish something like this?

I want to play system sounds with .NET code in my app - no problem if I want to use Beep, Asterisk etc as I can just use: My.Computer.Audio.Play SystemSound(Media.SystemSounds.Asterisk)But what if I want to play something like 'Menu Pop-up'? This sound is off by default in the Windows Default Sound Scheme, but if the user has set this sound up to do something then I want to play it.The user could have assigned any wav file to this action so I want to find which (if any) sound they have assigned and play it. Compatibility with Windows versions back to XP is also essential.

I have a VB Web Site project that has recently (and mysteriously) stopped importing the "System" namespace by default.
I'm having to either place an Imports System line at the top of each code behind, or preface everything with System, which is fairly annoying, not to mention redundant. I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the System namespace back to being imported by default.
I've already checked to see that WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727CONFIGweb.config contains the <add namespace="System"/> line--it does. That was my best lead.
I have references to several namespaces within the System namespace in the <assemblies> node (e.g. System.Design, System.Web.Extensions of my website's web.config. There is no <namespaces> node. This has not been changed recently.
