Drawing A Resizable Rectangle (by Edge/corner Dragging)?
Jul 19, 2003I am trying to make a rectangle that can be resized by the userby clicking and dragging the edges/corners of the rectangleTypically, if the mouse enters the rectangle region, then smalladjustment boxes should appear at the corners of the rectangleand also at the middle of the rectangle's edges (to allow the userto drag and resize the rectangle). When the mouse leaves therectangle region, then the adjustment boxes should disappear.I have the code to draw the rectangle and to produce the smalladjustment boxes, but I'm not sure how to accomplish thedrag and resizing steps (or if it's even possible with the way mycode is written).

VS 2008 Dragging And Dropping?
Jun 22, 2009Right now I have checkboxes on my form, and depending on what check box I check, the value of it gets put into a text box. So if I check "Right Eye", the texb ox below it gets "Right Eye" placed there.
I would like to do away with the check boxes and instead have a new form pop up with a list of words that gets populated from a table. Is it possible to be able to drag and drop these words into a text box? I guess I could use a List Box control for that but I'm unsure how to implement drag and drop. Maybe be able to multi-select words and then drag them all to a certain text box.
I'd like to have give the user the option of adding and deleting words from that form as they see fit, so could I just let VS do that for me by dragging the datasource onto the form and have it create a bindingnavigator or should I do it myself?
VS 2008 - Sort Datagridview By Dragging?
Sep 28, 2011I have a datagridview showing data from an Access database. I have dragged the datagridview from "Data Sources" window - and not written any code. In bindingsource I have choose to sort on an autonumber field. Is it possible to let the user use the mouse to change the order, and the database to remember this the next time the user starts the application.I guess I have to have a number field in the database, and write code to change the value in number field as the user change order - and then save this back to the database? Does the datagridview support changing order by mouse at all?

View 2 RepliesVS 2008 Drawing 'arc'?
Aug 19, 2009I have a little experience with drawing using GDI+ in VB.NET, but not so much with more complex shapes. All I ever used were lines and rectangles, and the occasional ellipse.I need to draw an 'arc' like this:I can specify the starting angle (0 in the picture), ending angle (angle from the horizontal (left side)), and the starting and ending radius, and I'm sure any other things I need can be calculated from that.The problem is that I have no clue which drawing function to use. Can I do it using FillPath, or FillClosedCurve, or? Of course, I could create a pie shape and then draw a second pie shape (slightly less radius) on top of that to make it appear like it's a single shape, but what if it needs to be 'transparent'? I don't want it to draw a solid shape on top.
View 17 RepliesDrawing On Picturebox Vs Drawing On Form?
Feb 18, 2012I need some code to draw a resizable, draggable rectangular cursor (or selection box) on a picturebox. I found some excellent code (albeit rather old) that does just that, but on a form rather than a picturebox. I have tried converting the code - basically moving things to the picturebox events (Paint, MouseDown, MouseMove etc). It nearly works but leaves a trail behind it when you move or resize the cursor. In other words, the selection rectangle is not being erased before being drawn in the new position.
Is there some fundamental difference between drawing graphics on a form and drawing on a picturebox that would cause this behaviour? Something like, when you invalidate a form and cause a redraw it erases what you did last? If not, then I just need to dig a bit further and work out how the cursor is being erased from the previous position.
Here's the original code that works fine on a form:
Private DragRect As New RectangleF(20, 20, 100, 80)
Private Adornments(7) As RectangleF
Private MouseInRect As Boolean = False

VS 2008 Graph Drawing
Sep 30, 2009my assignment is to draw a graph within my VB form with a some variables I have. I was told by my boss that I should use Microsoft Chart Control 6.0, but I don't think it matters if it is in another software.I currently have a few variables, each with a lot of values, "Frequency", which is user entered from maximum to minimum, CH (channel) 1-4 which are given by a machine output I use at my company. My graph, is supposed to have the Frequency values in the X-Axis (horizontal) and the CH 1-4 values within a range of each other in the Y-Axis. Can anybody help? My code for extracting the data and getting the frequency is below. How I got most of it is thanks to Stanav, the thread is over here: url...It comes with 3 buttons (I have not put in the code for button 3), the 3rd button will be used for plotting the graph when clicked.
