VS 2010 Check If Object Is A Color
Sep 29, 2011
I'm curious to know if there's a good way to see if an object is a System.Drawing.Color before I try casting it to one. Right now it seems the only way I can do that is to put it in a Try/Catch block and if it hit's the catch part then I know the object isn't a color.[code]I really don't like this because there's a slight flicker while it fires up the Exception handling and I would really rather use an If Else End If for this than a Try/Catch.

Simple question...is it possible to check the backcolor of an object, like a label for instance? What I want to do is check if a label's backcolor is green (or some other color) then have something else happen based off the color. Here is what I tryed, but neither worked...

I want to make a check box change color when it is checked. In looking for answers it appears there used to be a fill color option in the properties, now in there is just back color and fore color. I am using VB 2008 Express.

I recently started wondering about how Microsoft would go about checking the text and checking its color, word order (spell check), etc. and I was trying to think of how they would do it if they were forced to write something, like Word or the text editor in Visual Studio, in Visual Basic.NET. Ways that I thought of could be using an array, setting a string to a word in that array, and check if that word is in the text. However, after I tried it, I realized I had to set the .SelectionStart property to zero, which got annoying if the document was long. Also, with arrays, though I could store the strings in a text file and read from that, I was limited to the number of items I could have, and I'm sure it would get frustrating if I added or subtracted a word (then having to back in the code and replace all of the instances of that array.)
Then I started thinking about streams. Though I have not tried them yet, I would imagine that if they had to be used, the problem of speed would come up again. But what if the stream only checked say 30 characters before and after the current selection start? Well, that would solve the speed problem, but it would bring up another. Every time the caret position changed, (if we were checking for color changing) we would be limited to those 60 characters. Say the word is "hello". What if "hello" began 31 characters behind the current SelectionStart? "h" would remain the same color, but "ello" would turn the default color (this is because we would have to reset the color everytime just in case the user changed a certain word.)

I am fairly new to vb.net and the form includes 3 picture boxes in red which you can click and change their color to green, also each picture box have three text box associated with it and they are by default color dark gray. I want the system to check whether the picture boxes are clicked and if yes set the associated text box colours to white.
Here is the code I wrote:
Public Class Screen
Inherits Windows.Forms.Form
Dim T(1, 2) As TextBox
Dim S(2) As PictureBox
Dim x, i, j As Integer

[code] I want to check checkbox and change color on one label and enter date on another.Then I want to uncheck the checkbox, restore the color on one label and clear the other..This works perfectly but only after the initial check. On the first check the correspsonding labels are handled properly but all the other labels are changed also, ie. the color changes on one set and the other set cleared.I can see the problem is in the Else If statements but can't understand why if the coding iswrong it works ok after the first check.

I have been playing around with the "MouseDown" event and have gotten stuck. What I need is for when you click on a label (for instance), the back color will change, BUT I also want it to change to another color (back to its original) when nothing is clicking it. I can change the color with one mouse click, but when I release the mouse button, it stays the color it changed and doesn't revert back.

I'm using the following code to try and search a listview (I got it from msdn):
Dim atem As New ListViewItem = ListView1.FindItemWithText(TextBox2.Text, True, 0, True)
If atem IsNot Nothing Then
ListView1.TopItem = atem
End If
Then I got the " Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error highlighting the following line: ListView1.TopItem = atem So then I tried this:
Dim atem As New ListViewItem atem = ListView1.FindItemWithText(TextBox2.Text, True, 0, True)
If atem IsNot Nothing Then ListView1.TopItem = atem End If it still isn't working.

How can I check if an object (in this case my object would be a ButtonBox) exists inside a GroupBox but in a exact location.
Something like this :
If Groupbox1.NameOfButtonBox.location(40,190) exists then
Do my code
end if
I know the syntax is completely wrong but it's just an example

How do I check if a particular form exists? I want to show Doc1. If it does not exist I have to first create it.
Something similar to:
If Doc1 = Null Then

I have some code which gets child items for a menu via the GetChildren function which takes a list of menuData: Dim builtMenu As New List(Of MenuData)(_rawData.FindAll(Function(item) item.GroupingID = 0))
For Each menuData As MenuData In builtMenu
If menuData.Children IsNot Nothing Then
menuData.Children.AddRange(GetChildren(menuData))
End If
Next
If I check if menudata.children isnot nothing, it always is nothing because the GetChildren function is yet to run (providing the child items, which do exist). If I remove this check and just have this code:
Dim builtMenu As New List(Of MenuData)(_rawData.FindAll(Function(item) item.GroupingID = 0))
For Each menuData As MenuData In builtMenu
menuData.Children.AddRange(GetChildren(menuData))
Next
Then I am presented with a Object reference not set to an instance of an object error on menuData.Children.AddRange(GetChildren(menuData))

I have an object that may have been inflated via a plain old DataContext, or may just have been new-ed up with just its .ID property set. There's no way to know for sure. I'm looking to rehydrate the entire object from whatever is in the database. If the object was new-ed up, I can call .Attach() on the table object and refresh from the Data Context with no trouble. But, if the object was already inflated from the DataContext I get the error: "Cannot attach an entity that already exists.". There's no timestamp field or anything like that - just an integer primary key being used to control the rehydration. I'd like to know if there's a way to conditionally attach. Here's the code - it works the way I want it to, but this seems a hackish way to go about it:
' myDC is a shared instance of a vanilla DataContext...
' myObj is an instance of a linqed-up `SomeLinqObject`
Dim tbl = myDC.GetTable(Of SomeLinqObject)()
