Apr 14, 2010I have two forms. A main form and then another form that you can change settings in. Now when I click on the menu item to get to the settings form I get this error. "An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: The form referred to itself during construction from a default instance, which led to infinite recursion. Within the Form's constructor refer to the form using 'Me.'"I've tried these codes.
frmSettings.Show()
Application.Run(frmSettings)
those didn't work so i tried these
dim settings as new form = frmSettings
settings.show()
dim settings as form

and those didn't work. I'm using visual studio 2010 Pro.

VS 2008 IDE Default Window Size?
Mar 17, 2010I'm a new user of Visual Studio 2008. While I am a fan of Tabbed Browsing, I am in no way a fan of Tabbed Programming, so I have my "Window Layout" set to "Multiple Documents".However, I have been horrified to find that the default window size for any form or module opened is about 9/10ths of the work space. When I resize the window and close it, it opens back up again to 9/10ths of the work space. This is going to very seriously impact my work flow.There has to be some kind of mistake. I've looked for a way to set the default window size, but to no avail. I've searched the web for 3rd party plugins that would let me have more control over the IDE, but also to no avail.Is there some way to set the default window size in Visual Studio 2008? It would seem remarkably amateurish to not provide this extremely basic functionality.

Form1 Size Changing Automatically
Jun 17, 2012My Form1 is set to 1920, 1080 but it keeps changing itself to something slightly smaller. it just changed to 1916, 1054. Last time it changed to 1920, 1062. I'm not changing anything, it just does it automatically.
View 3 RepliesHow To Detect That Form1's Size Has Changed
Feb 20, 2011I've finally cracked how to detect that Form1's size has changed?[code]Now I have another problem, my intention was to adjust the font sizes of some labels, buttons and textboxes to reflect the change in form1's size.I find that font size is Read only, so I thought OK then, I'll adjust the Bold: Wrong! bold is also Read only.Ideally I'd like to leave the bold on and adjust the character size.The controls all change size correctly within the minimum width and height restrictions of the form, but sadly, the larger some controls get their texts start to look like a pea on a drum.

View 1 RepliesDefault Instance Of Form In .Net But Not In C#?
Jan 15, 2011there is The (Name) property, which represents the name of the Form class.This property is used within the namespace to uniquely identify the class that the Form is an instance of and, in the case of Visual Basic, is used to access the default instance of the form.
Now where this Default Instance come from, why can't C# have a equivalent method to this.Also for example to show a form in C# we do something like this:
//Only method
Form1 frm = new Form1();
frm.Show();
But in VB.Net we have both ways to do it:
//'First common method (used slash because editor wouldn't format it properly)
Form1.Show();
//'Second method
Dim frm as New Form1();
frm.Show();
1) My question comes from this first method. What is this Form1, is it an instance of Form1 or the Form1 class itself. Now as i mentioned above the Form name is the Default instance in VB.Net. But we also know that Form1 is a class defined in Designer so how can the names be same for both the Instance and class name. If Form1 is Class then there is no (StaticShared) method named Show().So where does this method come from.
2) What difference they have in the generated IL
3) And finally why C# can't have an equivalent of this.

Change Printer Default Paper Size?
Aug 10, 2011What i want to do is simple but at the same time complicated. I have multiple .PDF file and i want to print them all. Thing is, all the .PDF are in 8,5 X 11 paper size.

Background Worker / Progress (Report To Default Instance Of Main Form)
May 23, 2012I am using background worker to report progress on the screen. In the Main.vb I have the following
Public Sub report(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.ProgressChangedEventArgs) Handles bwlistener.ProgressChanged
Dim message As String = e.UserState
logRTB.AppendText(message & vbCrLf)
End Sub
When I call this from Main.vb I use:
bwlistener.ReportProgress(0, "Some status text goes here")
It works great. The problem is when I try to call it from any other module in my project.
When I call it OtherFile.vb:
Main.bwlistener.ReportProgress(0, "Some status text goes here")
It doesn't work... The program doesn't crash. Debug goes through everything but no output is actually shown to the end user.
