View 2 RepliesI have several buttons, all of which use flat appearance. I made them look just how I liked,but once you focus one, the 2px border (from 1px) ruins everything.
View 4 RepliesI noticed that when some of my buttons are clicked, this ugly black rectangle appears in it, around the central text. It only happens to the buttons with a "Flat" style applied to them.
View 1 RepliesI am setting my Winforms Button control properties to appear as a hyperlink would on a web page. I've formatted everything fine, except the border in the FlatAppearance object. I have code to act as pseudo-CSS (FormBackColor is a string constant.):
b.FlatStyle = FlatStyle.Flat
b.BackColor = ColorTranslator.FromHtml(FormBackColor)
b.ForeColor = Color.Blue
[code]....
The code removes the border from the flat Button control except on MouseOver, where I add a 1 pixel border. On MouseLeave, I remove the border. This is to show some visual feedback. This works fine when the button does not have the focus. However, if I click on the button, giving the button focus, mousing out and over again now shows a greater than 1 pixel border around the button. I'm imagining it's combining my button's explicit 1 pixel border with the traditional "Winform Button has the focus, so add a border" border around the Button.How can I disable/remove the "Winform Button has the focus, so add a border" border? Or, should I just do a check in ButtonMouseOver to check if the control has the focus, being a condition of adding the border, and just be done with it?
I am currently working on a program that needs to execute an outside program and then remove the border from the program (The border that includes the minimize, maximize, and close buttons) and then embed it into my form. I have everything working except for removing the border. Anyone have some code to do that? I am using vb.net in VS2008.

View 1 RepliesThis may seem like a dumb question... But what color is the border of the default TextBox control?
I need to replace a few TextBox's with a RichTextBox in my application, and now I have TextBox's and RichTextBox's mixed up, which does not look very nice since they have different borders. An RTB with BorderStyle FixedSingle has a black border by default, while the TextBox has kind of a blueish color (in XP, standard blue theme). If I use the gray theme, it's a gray border, etc.
I am drawing the border of the RTB manually so that I can match it with the border of the TextBox, but I cannot find the correct SystemColor to use for this... Obviously I cannot just find the RGB value, because it will change if the user uses a different theme. I need it to match the color of the TextBox border whatever the theme. I thought I could use the SystemColors for that, since they change when you change the theme.
I've been trying in the Xp blue theme, but none of the SystemColors seem to match the TextBox border exactly.
Can I maybe find the name of a SystemColor from an RGB value, or something like that?
how I can expand the border size of a listview control. I would probably need to change the color of it as well.
View 5 RepliesI'm currently working on an application that I'd really like to be able to have a custom form border. I have it set up right now that the close, minimise and maximise buttons work, as well as moving it around. The issue however is that, although the movement is working, once it starts, it does not stop. So I can drag it around and it works perfectly, but if I want to stop dragging it around and click elsewhere, the form moves to the position from which it was being dragged.

How do I change the Form's Border color?
View 1 RepliesI need a check that will see the location of the edge of the form. An example would be (for what I am trying to do) is, when a form is moved, the main form will get bigger depending which border and which way the second form is going.So basically I need some way to make Form1 get bigger if Form2 is near the left border or near the bottom border.
*I have a mini system for making it grow(LocationChanged) on the form I want it to work for.
*I also know about ".left" and ".top",
I set my FormBorderStyle of my form to none.This is exactly what i want, except I ran into a problem.When the background is gray (background of other applications running in the background), my form tends to fade in with the background (Still active, but i cant see where my form starts or ends).

View 3 RepliesOk so i have an owner drawn combobox and everything is fine in the drawitem event,except i'm a perfectionist and there is no border i have a beige backcolor, and i really just want a black border or something first i tried to draw using the given graphics and the given bounds, it failed as the rectangle was drawn oddly inside the combobox for some reason (not on the inner border, almost in the center of the combobox.then i tried the following and was surprised when it didnt work
Dim z2fx As Graphics = Graphics.FromHwnd(cmbBox.Handle)
z2fx.DrawRectangle(Pens.Black, New Rectangle(0, 0, cmbBox.Width, cmbBox.Height))
then i tried this and thought for sure it would work
1 Dim zfx As Graphics = Graphics.FromHwnd(cmbBox.Parent.Handle)
zfx.DrawRectangle(Pens.Black, cmbBox.Bounds)
this drew 2 sides of the border, the bottom and the right then i realized something: the code i used earlier with z2fx made the upper and left borders flicker right when i click the drop down, then it goes away. It is as if they were being redrawn with the background color of the combobox. And this redrawing was taking place after the drawitem event was called.
Something, some event, keeps redrawing the background color of the combobox when i put a button on the form and associate it with the zfx2 code, then when i press this button the combobox draws the 2 borders (upper and left) and they stay drawn until i either hover over the combobox or open the drop down of the combobox.
nvm while typing this i figured out a solution i can use the mouseenter mouseleave and dropdown events
since i typed this already im posting it anyway if i have problems i will let you know.EDIT: failed.SOMETHING keeps redrawing the damn background only after most events have passed! i tried the backgroundcolorchanged event it didnt work. this is annoying.
