VS 2010 Block Region On Screen?
May 29, 2012I don't know if this is possible, but I want my form to be 'window-blocking', just like the taskbar, when a window is maximized, it won't overlap the form.

View 3 RepliesI am using vb10 and i want to make a webbrowser but i want the web browser to be able to block certain url's and unblock them the url's are image/swf url's so all i want to do is load a website in my browser and be able to stop certain image/swf url's from loading then when i want able to unblock them can you give me the code to do this or explain how i can do it.
I have the url's i want to block/unblock
let say the url was
[URL]
I would want to block it with a check box but then if i want it back i can just uncheack the box.
I minimize a block of code, and instead of the text inside the rectangle being "..." I need to write smth of my own. I knew how to do it some long time ago, but I've forgotten it now.
View 6 RepliesSo I have been working on some code that is a supplement to a video game that I play (doesn't really give me an advantage, I'm against cheating) as recreational programming to get me to learn more things which apparently is working immensely.The video game is called DoTA which is a custom map in Warcraft 3.
What I am trying to do is to make a program that can manually click the skills when the user presses the key they bound to that skill. This allows for more precise skill usage as keybindings in the game change randomly which causes chaos.
I first tried using mouse_event to move, click down, click up, return back to original location. This worked, but I ran into a problem that occurred if mouse movement by the user was happening while the code was being ran. The problem mainly would cause the mouse to move off the skill before clicking or even after the mouse down event.
So then I looked into SendMessage and PostMessage but it took a while before I could fully grasp everything about the functions mostly due to many examples posted online being different from one another as far as the declarations.
I now have matched the output that happens according to Spy++ when I actually click the mouse myself with various PostMessage and SendMessages, but am still having an odd problem:
I provide the coordinates to click on say Button 1. Spy++ tells me it is clicking it properly, but I do not actually get a click. However, if I manually move my mouse over that button, even on the very corners of it, and then press the key, it clicks it (although it also seems to work on one other button in the game.) Other than that, it will not click any other button besides the one that the coordinates are over.The game does not have any child windows so it doesn't seem like I can get the handle of the actual buttons themselves.Here is what I have as test coding to figure this all out (the sleep time in between mdown and mup is because the game doesn't register if clicked too fast):
Option Explicit On
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices 'MarshalAs, Marshal
'Imports System.Reflection 'assembly
[code]....
I was thinking that if there was a way to maybe pause control from being able to move the mouse that I could just revert back to the original mouse_event code as well, but I haven't found anything that can take away control like that (actually, I wouldn't even want that posted TBH as it could be used for malicious stuff).
EDIT:The code at the bottom is just stuff I was using to match what happens when I actually click according to Spy++.
How to block edit and hide the text from Textobox?I want that after the user type inside the TextBox, the textbox block the edit and hide what was typed as ****.
View 3 RepliesThis is an example of the text I want to modify:
0110
0001
0001
1000
[Code]....
Here, I want to replace two-line digits in bold(0110 0001) with a different sequence as the program scans the text line by line. But two things complicate the task:
1. the comma lines should be ignored, but
2. they also should stay intact after changing the digits.
BTW this issue occurs in any MS office program when the VB.Net (or even VBA) is processing information.Example: In Excel, a worksheet is displayed on the screen. I start either, a VB.Net or VBA procedure and within 30 seconds the Excel worksheet (previously displayed) blanks out. In both VB.Net and VBA,ScreenUpdating = False. My expectation is that the previously displayed screen would stay static as if I left my desk to get a cup of coffee; came back and the same ole Excel worksheet was still there?Of course, setting VBA Screen Updating = False accomplishes two goals: 1) speeds up processing and 2) saves the user from seeing unnecessary "garbage-processing" steps.Why does VBA or VB.Net ScreenUpdating = False not freeze the screen at the time of its invoking?

View 2 RepliesFollowing my test project for making a map editor, I finally got the tile selection part covered.The application can already tell which tile(s) is selected.
So now we will work on "click the map and the tiles will be drawn" part.
When the user clicks the map, I need to "copy" a selected tiles in the tile selector, and "paste" them on the map. The process is a bit longer actually.Or is there a way to directly copy the selected tiles to the map image?

(1) Is this the correct approach?
(2) If so, how do I get the outline of the region so I can call DrawPath?
how can i get the points which make a polygon from a region which was derived from the polygon's points?
View 2 Repliesi have an image which has 2 colors, black and white.
i wish to get a region object that has all the white areas 'selected'
the shape is not just a polygon, its fairly shapeless
is this the best approach: create a region that is the size of the image and run a loop checking each individual pixel to see if its black, if it is then exclude it from the region. (i've got a feeling this will take very long to load)

View 6 RepliesImagine you want to draw a regular shape such as a triangle, rectangle ... all the way up to say a 10 sided figure ( a decagon ) or more. I know that when we try lots of sides it looks closer and closer to a circle or an ellipse. The problem I am thinking of is placing smaller circles ( or ellipses ) at the correct positions near the points of that shape as shown for a triangle below.Here comes the question(s) How could we: a) Correctly place the circles ( or ellipses ) at the points so that the sides are at a tangent to them andb) Can we combine the REGIONs of these to produce a figure with rounded points so the light blue bits get excluded? I guess that to produce a method to deal with all the mathematics involved would be quite a complex task.Has anyway previously tackled doing this or know of any .Net tools I could use for this problem?

View 6 RepliesI have a Rectangle (the class) that I'm using to define a region on a form and when the mouse enters that region it shows 2 buttons (which are on the form and within the bounds of the rectangle) and I would like the buttons to remain visible when the mouse is over either of the 2 buttons then when the mouse leaves the region or leaves the form they are set to invisible again. Here's the code I have so far:

The problem is when the mouse enters the bounds of the button, the form's MouseLeave event fires and thus my buttons are hidden which means the user can't click either of them either.

I have set a custom format for DTP control to dd/MM/yy. lets consider a real time scenerio. I have a form to enter Invoices for that i have following controls on my form 1] DateTimePicker, 2] CustomerName ComboBox, 3] Quantity, 4] Amount o.k. the Custom Format for DTP is set to 'dd/MM/yy'. When i first add entry i set the focus to DTP Control After changing date user moves focus to ComboBox then Quantity then Amount & Finally Clicks Save Button. And again hits Add Button and the cycle continues.
Now when user changes 'month'in DTP & go ahead and save the entry when he add another new entry the focus is on DTP however in the month region of DTP where it is expected in 'Date' region of DTP b'cas it is not likely that user will change month every time but he may change Date every time. This enforces user to mannualy select the desired region (either by Left Arrow Key or by Clicking Mouse button in the desired region). So after receiving focus i want the cursor tobe in the 'Date' region of DTP. Kindly help me writting correct statement to set focus to the control in the desired region (section) in DTP control.
