View 1 RepliesI have a balloon tool tip and want to show it as follows:
vb
Dim CompleteTooltip As New ToolTip With {.IsBalloon = True, .ToolTipTitle = "Title", .ToolTipIcon = ToolTipIcon.Info}
CompleteTooltip.Show("Click close to confirm changes", btnClose, CInt(btnClose.Width / 2), CInt(btnClose.Height / 2), 5000)
i would have thought if i specify that i want a balloon tooltip the point that i specify would be the point that the balloon points to - NOT the upper left point of the tooltip itself... how can i specify the balloon point rather than the upper left point?

View 4 RepliesSeveral years ago I developed a VB.Net 2003 WinForm application using SQL and the DataGrid control. The Datagrid is bound to a SQL dataset in the form load event. Everything work fine.
With the form opened, the user has the ability to size the datagrid control's column width and row height. I want to be able to capture the new row height as sized by the use?
I have a situation where I have several listbox controls on the same asp.net page. They are currently autosized to keep data from truncating. However, I would like to be able to determine the width of the largest listbox and then alter the size of the other listboxes to be the same.
How can I access the size of the listboxes?
I have a request for a util to create a binary file of finite size. For example, the user might want to create a 10KB or 1GB or 400GB file for testing network transfers. I would also like the ability to create multiple files, for example, create 10x 10KB or 5x 1GB or 2x 400GB (so my user would enter qty=5 and size=1GB and have 5x 1GB files in a specific folder).

I have a small application in which I need to show alerts if a particular condition is met. I have an mdi form and several child forms. Now the best way to show an alert is to show a tooltip on the right side corner of my mdi form. Though this works, but the problem is I want user to close the tooltip once he has read. Now the tooltip that vb.net provide does not support click events. If I give a long time duration the tooltip would be open all the time and if I give a short duration then it will close quickly. What can I do ?
View 1 RepliesI am working on implementing cell level error indication in my app and I have it set up to where it shows the error icon correctly and I tried using the datagridview FAQ sample code to show an errortooltip as well. I can watch as I set the errortooltip to have the proper data and display control (in mousemove event), yet the second I finish my mousemove event it fires the mouseleave event and resets my tooltip before the user ever has a chance to see it.
Here's my:
' show and hide the tooltip for error
Private Sub ChuteSinglesDataGridView_CellMouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As DataGridViewCellMouseEventArgs) Handles ChuteSinglesDataGridView.CellMouseMove
If cellInError.X = e.ColumnIndex AndAlso cellInError.Y = e.RowIndex Then
Dim cell As DataGridViewCell = ChuteSinglesDataGridView(e.ColumnIndex, e.RowIndex)
[Code] .....
Ok basically what I am doing is using panels to create virtual "pages" within my application, and using buttons to switch from page to page. However whenever I click the button to move from page1 to page2, page 1 disappears and page2 does not become visible.
Private Sub page1_next_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles page1_next.Click
page2.Visible = True
page1.Visible = False
ToolStripStatusLabel1.Text = status_page2
End Sub
Also, how do I make it so that when the user focuses on a text box a tool tip pops up?
Is there any way to change the properties of the DataGridViews default tooltip?ie.change it's display duration or text font/size.

View 3 RepliesI'm looking to return a thumbnail image from a full size image stored as varbinary(max) in the database. I'll be using the thumbnails in a gallery-style view, so small size / efficient loading is crucial. I've been using an .ashx to return the full size image into a bound asp.net Image control, with the following code:
Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
Dim conn As New SqlConnection()

I realize it's probably best to address the re-size at the upload, and stored the smaller image as a discrete column. But in the meantime, is it possible to program the handler to re-size the image on the fly? Ideally, I'd be able to pass an additional query string parameter, something like isResized from the image binding, allowing the same handler to be used for both full size and re-sized images.
I am working on a personal vb.net project that will allow me to capture a full-sized image of a given web page. I've been working on this for a few of days and have not found a method that is 100% reliable. Here's what i have tried so far...
METHOD #1 - Using WebBrowser Control and CopyFromScreen
Problem: Fails to capture the entire content of the page if part of it is off screen, obscured, or requires scrolling.

I am using a Balloon tooltip to show the user which characters are invalid as a filename. I use the IO.Path.GetInvalidFileNameChars array and convert each character to a string, before appending it to a "Invalid filename characters:" string.
vb.net
If IO.Path.GetInvalidFileNameChars.Contains(e.KeyChar) Then
e.Handled = True
Dim str As String = "The following characters are invalid filename characters:" & nl
Dim invalidChars As New List(Of String)
For Each c As Char In IO.Path.GetInvalidFileNameChars
[Code] .....
The result is not pretty: How do I get rid of the 'non-visual' characters (they are probably newlines, backspaces, null chars, etc) so they don't clutter up the list?
I have previously used the arguments of a contentsResized event on a Winforms richtextbox to get the new size of my RTB. I am now developing a WinForms app with a custom WPF RichTextBox. My whole reason for doing this is to use the out-of-the-box spellchecker. I need my RichTextBox to expand and collapse vertically as the text is changed. The elementhost will also have to resize to allow the whole RTB to display on-screen.
