I have a form that has auto scrolling enabled. I have a menu on the form and I want the menu to always be visible when scrolling. Is there anyway to do this with auto scrolling or do I have to make my own scroll bar?

View 2 RepliesMy problem is I have a data grid in Visual Basic, it works fine but as the columns extend past the width of the window I needed a scroll bar. This is where the problem arose. When a column past the 4th is clicked the scrollbar will shift to give it focus. As there are check boxes here they are constantly clicked and when they are the scroll bar shifts but the button isn't checked and must be clicked again. I was hoping there was a way to disable this Auto focus so clicking a column will not cause the scrollbar to move.
View 1 RepliesI recently installed WSP Builder on a machine with Visual Studio 2008 already installed.Quite expectedly, the WSP Builder sub-menu appeared (and still appears) under the Visual Studio 2008 Tools menu.Having then installed Visual Studio 2010 Professional and installed WSP Builder a second time, I can not seem to find the WSP Builder sub-menu anywhere under any of the Visual Studio 2010 menus.Can anyone throw some light on this "missing menu" problem?

I'm not sure how to go about making my menus and context menus to look like the other
menus and context menus in vista.I thought the style would automatically be inherited from vista, but it seems not - and I can't find any sort of 'style' option anywhere either.The image on the left, is what I want the style to be, on the right is what I don't want it to be.
I have a menu item which is set to be the MdiWindowListItem. If I open several child windows, they appear in the Windows menu on the MDI Parent as expected. If I minimize one or more of the child forms they appear along the bottom of the parent and are still in the list. So far so good. If I select one of the non-minimized child forms which is behind another, then it comes to the front, which is what I expect. However if I select from the Windows menu item one of the minimized child forms, the it's title bar is activated showing it is selected, but it doesn't restore to its previous state. How do I get the minimized child form to automatically restore (to normal or maximised) when I select it from the Windows list.
I have tried using the Activated event for the child, but it has undesirable effects (ie restores at times when you don't want it to!)
I have a problem with Context Menu Strip Opening event, and i think i can get help here. On ContextMenuStrip1_Opening i have code to check, does any item are selected on listview.

I have a form which has a menu bar. This bar then has sub-menus i.e. the top menu is passwords and the 2 sub menu's are change password and delete password.This works fine when the user selects the menu item by clicking with the mouse
Private Sub ChangePasswordToolStripMenuItem_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles ChangePasswordToolStripMenuItem.Click
PasswordForm.ShowDialog()
End Sub
What I want to do is under certain conditions run the menu item automatically from within the code.
I'm writing a small software similar to the calculator in Windows, the calculator in Windows has a menu bar; in the menu bar, you can find "scientific" and "standard" mode; once you select different mode, your form will be changed, but the two forms still share the same menu bar.
I want to create the same effect of this:
1. Two forms, only one is visible at any time
2. The menu bar on the top of the two forms should be shared between these forms

I have a Windows form with a menu strip (the built-in one, nothing custom).I want to add a new list of items to one of the current menu items programmatically (no problem, done that).The new list of items I am adding is unsorted, but I want them to appear on the menu in alphabetical order.
View 7 RepliesI have a TreeView control on a form with two Root nodes. Both root nodes use the same ContextMenuStrip. The problem I'm having is that at runtime if I right-click on the root node that IS NOT selected, and select the option to add a child node, it gets added to the node that IS selected. My code for adding the child node is below.
Is there a way to have the control first SELECT the node that was right-clicked, or at least determine which node was right-clicked?

I am working on a project that is pretty much done, but I wanted to put the finishing touch on it.I have a shock wave flash object over most of my form, and I load shock wave files onto it so they are accessible from the main flash object. But one of the shock wave menus I have is pretty much just flat, and I was wondering how I can make it a little transparent like the windows 7 GUI so you can kind of see a blur of whats behind the GUI.
View 3 RepliesI am looking to create a menu system in vb 2010 windows app. See attached file to give you an idea of what I want to achieve. I could do it by creating 4 buttons and have 4 panels. when button one is pressed make panel one visible and hide other 3 panels, etc This just seems messy. Will any of the built in VB menu components do this?

View 6 RepliesI'm trying to make a webbrowser in VB 2010 just for fun. I'm trying to make a settings menu but I can't seem to figure out how to do it. Form2.ShowDialog() won't work. I'm a total newb to VB so I don't really know what I'm doing wrong.

View 3 RepliesI have thought that it would be pretty cool to make Boot Snooze, iReboot and similar programs accessible from the Windows Shutdown menu. It would be a pretty neat way to interface with such programs. I realize that this may be extremely advanced stuff here, but I was wondering if anyone knows how to do this. I would prefer to be able to do this in VB.Net, but I realize it may only be possible in C++, if it is at all. I have tried Googling it, but, most likely due to the advanced nature, I have not found any good results (only "Add Hibernate", "Change default action to Hibernate", etc.).

View 2 RepliesI added a new application recently and I find there is no Configuration Manager. I went to Tools-->Settings and checked Expert Settings, but Configuration Manager does not show up in the Build Menu. It only shows Build Project and Publish Project. I also tried to add Configuration Manager to the tool bar - it was added, but it is grayed out.
I'm trying to get the compiler Configuration Manager to show up. By the way, all of my 8 other VB 2010 Express projects have a Configuration Manager option in the build menu. However, none of those 8 projects were started as a new application in VB2010 - they were all conversions of old VB6 applications (first converted with VB2008, and then with VB2010).
I'm trying to make it where when I click the subitem of a toolstrip menu, I can get the text I am clicking.
For example: This is my toolstripmenu, I'm trying to make it when I can get the text of what I'm clicking like the My Subscribers, My Contacts etc.
I tried this:
Private Sub ContextMenuStrip1_ItemClicked(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripItemClickedEventArgs) Handles ContextMenuStrip1.ItemClicked
End Sub
But all this does it get the main menu item click such as Add Selected Users to New Group. The subitems are added programmatically through this.
I've got a menu with checkable items that appears on two different forms, and I'm making sure the two forms always have the same check states, so Form1 would have something like this:
Private Sub mnuWarnings_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles mnuWarnings.CheckedChanged
'when one of these is checked, the other should also be
[code].....
But that yields this error:
An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: 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.'
There definitely aren't any references to Form1 within Form1.It only occurs when I use CheckedChanged--if I use mnuWarnings.Click, it works fine. And it only occurs in Form1 (the main form); CheckedChanged works fine on Form2.
with this code I have cascading comboboxes that pull push results in a DataGridView; but each time I change selection in a combobox, it doubles results in the cascading combobox?!
