VS 2008 Extyles / Styles - Add A "FormBorderStyle" Property
Mar 19, 2011
In my window class I want to keep things simple, and instead of setting (ex)style flags I want to add a "FormBorderStyle" property. These are the (Ex)Style enumerations:
[Code]...
What flags are set for, for example, FormBorderStyle.FixedSingle, Fixed3D, FixedDialog etc. I first tried by displaying the flags of an already known window, but when I set these flags it doesn't change the window to the state.
I create a Form with FormStyleBorder = none and i want to resize them in Runtime.how can i resize them if my FormStyleBorder is none, do i need a code to do that? so that i can resize them during in Runtime while my Form is set to None.
If I disable the formborderstyle and set the WindowState to maximized it goes over the taskbar.how can I have to program to be maximized, but the taskbar remains?
I need to start Windows Forms Application with a startup object that it is not a form (is a Start Sub, so i can instantiate several components, prepare all structures without any form loaded, etc). Problem is since i had unchecked "Enable Application framework" i had XP visual styles disabled also; and all graphical elements look a lot like a vb4 app running in windows 98. Any suggestion how to enable XP visual styles in this scenario?
i have just switched to VS 2008 from 2005. On every web page I create, CSS styles are being automatically generated and added to every control on the page ... this is driving me crazy. Is my setup wrong? And, more importantly, how do I stop this very annoying event?
I am creating an application that needs to have a similar style to the office package. on a quick way to implement my project to have this style? or does it all need to be done manually?
Just wondering how i can enable visual styles with the application framework option disabled - it would be nice to have the ability to use the xp+ theming while having a bit more flexibility
I just started VB.NET coding, and I think I come along quiet well. Offcourse, I get a few errors, but When googling it, I always come to dream.In.Code, so I thought I'd better register here.
Now, my problem is, that when I set FormBorderStyle to None, it looks so cool, but I cant move my form around in debug mode (Nor when launching my finished builded application)
Here is my whole Code in my application, as I dont know what parts I should post here:
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button8_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button8.Click
I am using the software called Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition. I've created this calculator on my own, and the past hour I've been messing with the design. Right now I am wondering how I can move the form around, with the FormBorderStyle set to none (no borders (means no exit button, minimize etc. I made those myself )
What I'm looking for is that I should be able to press anywhere on a place that isn't used (black place) and drag it around. I forgot to mention another issue that I have. The textbox on the calculator accepts any signs and letters, how can I make it so it just accepts numbers?
how do i reshape a form with formborderstyle set to none?specifically i've kind of photoshopped my own frame and everything (and set it as backgound image), but i want to trim or curve the edges because the angles on the form look ugly.alternatively if there is a way to make the form's background color actually transparent, that could also work. but i prefer to trim the edges
I set the FormBorderStyle to None because I wanted the project to only show a background image and the contents I put on it. Here is what I need to know?Is there I way that I could ONLY add the X Button as a separate image to the project, or do I need to make the Background image have an X button?
I have a TabControl placed on Form. which is a VB.net windows application. I want to set tabcontrol border totally invisible similar to the formBorderstyle = none I am unable to find any settings for the tabControl to remove the visible border.
I have a listbox with several list items added. I want that as user click on an item, I should be able to show its property. This should change for different items. For example (hypothetical) : Listbox has numbers 1 - 10. Now when I select 1 I should be able to set property - Name, Lastname, Colour, Age.
When I select 2 I should be able to set - Age, Hair Colour (clr shows), Weight, Date. When I select 3 then - City (combo box drop down), Country, Age only. This way value changes for diff items. One way is to put them in property grid and show them. Though this looks nice but adding/removing items in that is not easy. You need to have a class that refer that to prop grid. Do I have to code for each classes for all values in listbox or is there an easier way to manage items in property grid. If you think prop grid is not the right tool for such an activity then can you suggest something else.
i've been developing a usercontrol that uses a listbox with ownerdraw on. I need each element of the listbox to be expandable and thus - I need to draw an expand/collapse button ( [+]/[-] ) on each element. I've been using the Win32 DrawFrameControl function but it doesn't support XP styles apparently. So, the question is:Is there a way to make the DrawFrameControl API function draw elements using XP visual styles or should I use different API function? Is there some native .NET Framework functionality for something like this?
i have 2 Combo boxes[_cmbxFontName, _cmbxStyleName] i can load all installed fonts into _cmbxFontName. but i could not load Fonts Style. if i select a Font Name in _cmbxFontName then the other _cmbxstyleName combobox wants to load it's Styles [Regular,Normal,Bold,Italic......]. i know all fonts has different styles but how can i found and load its....
Is there anyway to add custom styles to a tabcontrol? Like the tabs themselves I want to have a different background to the normal one. Just so I can style it to look nice
how to disable XP visual styles in VB?I unticked "Enable XP visual styles", but application still has XP visual style. I want to achieve that application will be in Windows Classic color scheme look. Basically the same what you can do in windows settings, but that`s for entire windows and I want it for my application only and default on every computer, where application will be installed.
So, to set the body style for a webpage, I can just sayWebBrowser1.Document.Body.Style = stylexBut let's say I set "stylex" equal to "background-color:red;". That will set the background color red but ONLY to websites that do not have a background color already set.ike Google's isn't set so it'd work, but other websites it is set and it won't let me change the background color. So how could I override their style with mine?
Is it possible to change the format of the progress bar so that the style can be changed for example change the color of the bar itself, or even the background to it.
I have buttons throughout my program and most are dynamic. How do I assign a specific batch of qualities to them... like I want all my buttons to be 100,100 and flat appearance, etc.... Is there a way to assign all these attributes (attributesA) and then when I create this button, say give it all those attributes?
I have a rtb and I need the user to be able to switch between bullet styles. How would i do this. I can not figure this out, i do not even see a bullet style properties.
