View 5 RepliesActually, I'm not looking for the way to expand its width.I have a combobox with a given width.It may occur that one row of the data is partially hidden. I'd like to show the whole line by using tooltip or right-click context menu.What do you think? What's the best approach for this scenario? Anyway, I can't find how to 'catch' the row that I'm currently holding on or passing over by mouse.
View 6 RepliesI have a stack panel with 10 borders in it. the application performs the following operations:
1) it takes the last border and set its width = 0
2) It remove the border form the last position and it inserts this border in the first position
3) Once is in the first position a double animation increases its width to 50
No it works well for 10 times then it become impossible to set the width of the border to 50, it stay to 0. It looks like when you run a double animation the width property becomes blocked and you can not change it. Is there a way to unblock it?
how do I change the border color and border width of textbox as something shown below
If it is mouse hover I need to display one colour and on mouse down I need to display another colour.
detailed process with the source if available.

View 5 Repliesis it possible to make the inserted items in FlowLayoutPanel automatic size of the FlowLayoutPanel? Here is an example:
A form with 1 FlowLayoutPanel and 3 buttons inside:
if I resize the form, the controls look like this: they arrange "left to right"
What I want is this: The controls should have the width of the FlowLayoutPanel:
how to do this? I changed the FlowDirection and played with the Anchor property but with no luck.
I could of course Resize the controls in the FlowLayoutPanel_Resize event, but I want to add about 500 usercontrols - I tested it and it is slow.
been trying to find examples of how to go about auto sizing the controls i have within a grid control if the users screen is larger than the default size.Currently i am unable to resize the controls when i enlarge the form. Is there any code currently that can find all controls inside the grid and resize them on the fly when the form is resized?My current code is:
<Window x:Class="Window1"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

View 10 RepliesWhat I'm attempting to do is create a Form with two Panels:
Left - A autosizing panel with a dock fill richtextbox
Right - A constant size panel with buttons and features for editing the text
Effect desired: When scaling the size of the form you cannot scale smaller than the initial size of the form, but when expanding the panel on the right is anchored to top right while the richtextbox in the left panel will scale infinitely in either height or width dimensions.
I am sure this is likely some simple property of the textbox or the panel, but cannot seem to locate it. I have the panel on the right anchored at constant size, but cannot seem to get the panel left to autoscale on dimension change.
Ok, So i have googled my ass off looking, I've seen it somewhere were you can make a hyperlink with one line of text so when they click the button it opens that website in there browser and i cant seem to find it, Dose anybody know?.
Next thing, Dose anybody know how to make it so the richtextbox on my page expands when you make the window maximized, I did parent body thing but it covered all the other content on the page :/
Most applications will expand all components if the user change the size of the forms

What I am trying to do is fill the contents of the datagridview with the cell contents. There are two ways to do this.
1) Either set the DGV width to the cell contents width, or
2) Autoadjust the width of the cells to the width of the DGV.
how to implement either of these two approaches?
This Winforms app has a toolStripComboBox within a MenuStrip container that displays Culture Info languages.The toolStripComboBox's width is not expanding to accommodate the size of the string. The strings are dynamically added to the combobox from underlying code. How do I get the comboboxe's width to expand? Below is an image of the'too narrow' combobox and below that the Properties for the combobox.
View 1 RepliesIn VB.NET for the combo box, I have set the autocomplete mode to "SuggestAppend" and autocomplete source to "ListItems". Its working as expected. But the width of the autosuggest dropdown box is not same as that of combo box and so it looks weird.I tried changing the value dropdown width property but it changes the value of normal dropdown box (seen after clicking down arrow on combobox), and not the autosuggest dropdown box.So what code or property needs to be set to make autosuggest dropdown box the same width as that of combobox width?

View 1 RepliesI have a drawing program written in VB6 that is capable of printing very thin lines to a laser printer. In VB .net, even though the pen width is set to 1, the thinnest lines are way too "thick". The equivalent line width in VB .net using a pen width of 1 is about the same as the DrawWidth = 4 in VB6. So, my question is, how can I print very thin lines to a laser printer in VB .net?

View 3 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?
I'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).
