I am working on a University project, and I am trying to customize the design (background color, foreground color, border style) of the TABS in a Tabbed Layout, but I can't seem to find these properties in the properties windows.
View 1 RepliesThis is kind of an off-the-wall question but does anyone know if VS 2010 has somekind of utility that will allow you to just drag & drop controls onto a form or something that will help in visual design. I'm just talking for visual purposes only. No code-behind files or anything...almost like a canvas where you can place controls and labels, etc.

View 1 RepliesI am working on a windows forms project that will allow a user to have an interface to the database, and another will be a nightly run process file that will update the database table.The user will add new records to the table, whereas the nightly process will update the columns with new values (think mortgage interest rates)
Both these projects will be using the same business logic component that has the calculations needed to enter values into the table.The way I am figuring this out, is that I will have two exe's (one for the interface and one for the nightly process) and have a central object that will host the calculations. What would be the best object for this purpose?A class file?A windows service? (I want to stay away from a windows service, because it will have to be running all the time)
i am in the process designing the screen of a report form.I would like to have the Report selection (button, search criteria) on the left hand side and crystal report on the right hand side of the form.My idea is such that:Report Selection take up 30% of the screen and Crystal Report take up 70% of the screen.User are able to view the crystal report immediately after they have filled in all the search criteria and press the OK button.My purpose of doing this is to avoid to have another pop up for crystal report.Is it possible to do so in VB.NET?
View 4 Replieshow to implement a classic layout design in vb.net (2.0).The application design is the classical toolbar panel at the top and different panels stacked at the bottom. Depending on the button pressed at the top in the toolbar panel a different panel at the bottom will be available.This is thought to have different part of the software available on different panel but with the toolbar panel always available at the top.To implement this I thought:
1) one tablelayout with 2 rows. First row contain a panel with the button (toolbar panel) and adding/removing hte correct panel requested on the bottom row.
I have been staring at a blank screen for over an hour trying to figure out the best way to build this app. We have a warehouse with consumables. These consumables are stored on racks that are three rows high and 15 columns long. I need to display the contents of these racks with the following; Item nameUnit quantityUnit expiration date
Now while this in itself would be a simple thing, I need to . Take a look at this image, the lower portion of the image shows basically what I want to display as far as the form goes. Instead of the "Row 1-1-1" text, I want to show the item, qty and exp. There are multiple rows. It should also be noted that each location may have more than one item stored in it, and there might not be anything stored in it. So I guess my question is, from a design point, is it better to create a small table for each location and then join those tables to a main "Row" table since there will only be a single row displayed on the form at a time? How would it be possible to keep the data properly ordered from a coding perspective? How can I ensure that each storage location remains static unless the item is moved?
i am making a small program just for fun. its a small form with six different buttons ( a text editor, a calculator, a music player, a button to change the layout of the form, a form that displays a bunch of links to websites i use, and a web browser, with a small text editor on the side, which is surprisingly useful) and i was wondering if you guys had any other ideas for some useful things i could add?

So when I make changes to my form in VS2010 professional (writing in VB.net) and hit debug, the instance of my form that pops up doesn't include the changes i make.

View 1 RepliesI am wanting to make a tool where I can load up a previously coded project and then add error reporting to each sub/function.My problem is this: When I open up some forms, the layout is not as desired. Here is an example:The sub header: "Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click" is extended over two lines... (when opened up as text) is it possible in VB settings to change this to be only on one line? Or is there a 'word wrap' feature I can use when viewing text?

View 4 Repliesi have posted here a few times on various issues and found all the help given was substantial to get the problem resolved, im working on a tabbed webbrowser and im currently adding a bookmarks feature, i am verry new to coding and require some simple i have a menu item "bookmark" and the options of that item are dropdown items "bookmark this page" "Edit bookmarks" "add custom bookmark"Codes for them are below:
[Code]...
the problem is when i click "bookmark this page" or any of the options within that bookmark menu it navigates the page to a search page and searches for "bookmark this page" then adds that search page as the bookmark :-S so really the bookmark thing is working but its bookmarking the wrong thing.but i cant find anywhere to fix this, im wondering if someone was willing to help me, im thinking the easyest way is to give someone my whole solution and files ect and that way evrything is there and can be looked in to
i also have some other problems that dont really bother me at the moment like history not showing unless u type something into the address bar but as a i said thats small and i havent even attempted a fix on it, so if i cant work it out ill come back .
I am currently working on creating a web browser. I have chosen to use multiple layout engines. I found this MDI Tab Control, and thought that it would make this task easier to accomplish and be useful in other aspects of my project. I am at a pause. I have a menu strip with an engine item, and within that I have Layoutengine1 and Layoutengine2. I want it so that when someone is browsing the web using Layoutengine1, and they want to switch to Layoutengine2, that all they have to do is click the Layoutengine2 button and all the tabs that they currently have open would be using Layoutengine2 instead of the previous Layoutengine1.

I'm making a jungle timer for League of Legends, where I will make buttons you can click or you can start by a hotkey.
The button will be a picture of the specific jungle camp, and when the press/start it, it will start a timer, which will count down to when the jungle camp spawns again. When you press this button, it will change the design of the button to make the picture blurry and add a timer above it, that you can see.
My question is how do you change the design of the button, when you press it, like I explained?

View 3 RepliesI have a class where it's problematic to relay on the properties being serialized in alphabetical order at design time.In other words, property Z must be serialized before property A.The problem arises because property property Z clears property A whenever it changes - which happens in InitializeComponent.I work around this problem by setting a FirstTime flag, but that seems messy.
