I know that in Mouse event I can use this code to get control name the mouse is hovering over: dim _name as string = sender.name.ToString But how can I get the name of a control when I am draging another control over it?

I would like to find out if it is possible to read or capture the name of control the mouse is hovering over on any window. I have tried to research it and maybe using win32 or looking for accessibility info I'd like to be able to have similar functionality in my app as the inspect32 application that Microsoft has at sysinternals that can do this, I want to know if a user hovers over a control (in any window or part of the Windows O.S.) for a while, if longer than a certain time then capture that..

View 2 RepliesI'm using VS 2008 under Windows 7. When I hover the mouse over a variable in debug mode, the value will fade in slowly. Sometimes it is annoyingly slow, I just want the value to show up, no animation or fading. Or is this fading feature a Windows thing and not a VS thing?

View 3 RepliesHow do i get the name of a control (in this case a button) the mouse is hovering over? i have a toolstrip, and the buttons are created dynamically. when i hover the mouse over the button, i want the name of that button to appear in a text box.

Code:
Private Sub ToolStrip1_MouseHover(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ToolStrip1.MouseHover

I have been tasked with showing a tooltip when I hover over certain TabPages within a tab control, I have tried everything I can think of to resolve this little task, but still I am left with no clear answer.
the events that I would normally use, seem only to fire if the mouse is over the actually tabpage, I am more interested in the tabpage under the mouse in the tabcontrol.
I have a tabpage. And I have a combobox in it.When I hover my mouse over it, my tabpage's paint function runs.Why?The Combobox has no functions handled. It is just a Combobox.I move the combobox out of the tabpage, and now the tabpage won't paint when I hover my mouse over the combobox. Weird..

How could I create a function that gets the control under the mouse eg:
Dim Control as control
Control = GetControlUnderMouse()
if Control isnot Nothing then
debug.print(Control.Name)
end if
the function should return nothing if it's not over a control in my app

View 3 RepliesApologies as this has probably been answered a million different times a million different ways already. I'm trying to control the mouse. I wish to move the mouse to a given pixel position (x, y) and cause a click. I don't want this to be limited within a form, as I want to control another application. I'm using VB 2005.

I'm going to be frequenting this plethora of knowledge for the next couple of weeks as I attempt to complete my capstone software engineering class and finally get my undergrad. As usually I will typically need information or guidance. Since this is homework based. I have found my first issue. Allow me to digress....
The task given to my team is to create a checkers game which will have the capability to pay either player vs player or player vs cpu. Before I can begin to work on logic I need to cross the hurdle of detecting mouse movement. I have created the board which consists of 64 panels inside a groupbox. Each panel will have 4 images layers on top with the .visible property set to false. I am familiar with mouse click events to a degree but apparently lack some of the know how required.

I have set the controls mouse enter and mouse leave events. My problem is that the mouse leave event fires if I mouse over any of the child controls (like the name box for example).What I need is for the mouse leave event to fire when my mouse leaves the entire control, rather than firing when I mouse over any of the child controls. Here are the events as I have them so far:
Private Sub DeliveryControl_MouseEnter(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.MouseEnter
Me.removeImage.Visible = True
End Sub
[code]....
If I put this code in the form, the mouse will be moved once. I want it to "freeze" the mouse at the point that its moved at. If I put code in timer (which it is now), the mouse will keep searching for the color, so the mouse moves around like crazy. How do I change my code so that it will "freeze" the mouse once it finds the color? [Code]
View 11 RepliesI have a Richtextbox and I would Like the user of the program to be able to drag and drog the richtextbox in other specified places in the program.
I have this very basic
Private blnLifting As Boolean = False
Private Sub richTextBox4_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles RichTextBox4.MouseDown
[Code]....
Firstly its very inaccurate. I want it so the Richtextbox moves with the mouse and not after the mouse. So I want a smooth drag and drog.
So I don't know if this is the wrong code for something that I want perfect like that.
Secondly I dont know if its possible but I would like it so the box can only be dropped in certain area's in my program and if there is a box already occupying that space, It goes back to where it was before.

View 35 RepliesI have defined a class which inherits PictureBox-component.In this class I have a mouseClick and mouseDoubleClick events overridden.On mouseClick the image is selected. Now if user click it again, it is delesected.The mouseDoubleClick event starts the video which this picture is pointing to.Now the problem is that when user doubleclicks the pictureBox it actually calls the mouseClick-event twice (select-deselect) and does not call the mouseDoubleClick-event. How can I define it so that if mouseclicks are done as doubleclicks then doubleClick-event is called, not the click event twice?

I'd like to know if that's possible to locate the text that I'm currently positioned on, in order to show it on a tooltip.I've just googled but found nothing. It seems like I have to use MouseHover event, but can't find how to find the position of where I'm currently on.
I'm reading a tutorial provided by someone at my university, and it claims that if you're debugging a VB.NET program, you can hover over a conditional (e.g. "Age > 13") and it will be evaluated. However, in VB 2010 Express, I am not seeing this functionality.
I believe the tutorial may have been written for a previous version of VB.NET, so I was wondering if anyone could tell me if this used to work and has been removed, or whether it has never existed?!
I am able to hover over a variable and see it's current value, and I can even "Watch" an expression (such as the conditional), but the tutorial claims[code]...
I have two custom action listers. One that handles Mouse.Click and one that handles Mouse.MouseDown. My question to you is, can I delay the mouse down event so that it does not intefere with the code of the Mouse.Click event? I have tried adding a timer and waiting x amount then setting a bool value to true, but the code executes to fast and it skips the other code.
