Is there any way of detecting the position where the Mouse Button is released during a Drag & Drop operation. I need to know whether the intended Drop position was not reached when the mouse button is released.
View 8 RepliesI'm writing an application for seat reservations. I use a DataGridView to represent seats. Each free seat is coloured in green and occupied seats are in blue.DataGridView is populated with names from database and user could add a name to a seat choosing from a list.Moreover the user has the possibility to move a name from one seat to another - not occupied via drag and drop operation.Eveything works well, but when moving a name from one cell to another I have to position the cursor over a cell that is one row above and four columns on the left of that one I choose.Which is the reason?

Im trying to make a drag drop styled interface for user customization.
I'm trying to find a drag and drop cursor for use in a program. It is not in the standard Windows cursors. It's the one you see when moving a control in Visual Studio or when reordering slides in powerpoint - arrow with rectangle below.
View 5 RepliesI need to drag and drop to textbox from tree view. Here while drag and drop to text box i need to add the dragged text to anywhere in the text box which we have already dragged some nodes here.
For example.in treeview i have "node1" and "node2"now i am going to add "node2" to textbox and in front of "node2" i need to add "node1" and then at the end of "node2" again i need to drop "node1" like that.
is it possible to link a personal created class with a Mouse Event? I created a class and I want to make it possible to make it interactive with the mouse. So when the user goes over the GDI-created shape (which is declared and created in that class), he has to see some information about that shape, like the name etc.... And the user has to be able to drag and drop that shape.
View 2 RepliesI insert a text box into form1. I move the mouse pointer on top of the text box. I press down on the left mouse button and begin to drag the text box. The problem is when I let go of the mouse button the text box is not dropped. it remain floating around. My only way out of this is to press the escape key which places the text bnox bak to its original location. Thinking that it might be my mouse I tested it in Power point and everything works correctly.

I am creating an application that creates scripts to move a mouse and to click where a user wishes to via pre-programmed code and to also press keys where required. I have the code to move a mouse and to manually click anywhere. What I am after is to detect when a mouse button is pressed and dragged and when keys are pressed.
I see that there is the following
MouseButtons.ToString
To detect when a mouse button is pressed, and have it looping in a timer. Is there a better way to do this? I would rather not use a timer. And is there a similar routine to detect which keys are pressed?

Can it be drap and drop item to other form control??How to write the event when mouse up at the other form control?
I had a user ask me today if I could make it so they could simply drag and drop text from other programs into the app I've written. I found an old (2002 & 2003) article on drag and drop, but I'm sure things have been made better since then.
Anyone doing this today can point me in the right direction? Is this much of a pain to enable?
I am dragging a control over a different control as part of a drag/drop operation. AllowDrop is set for both the dragged control and the drop target. There is a DragDrop handler for the drop target, but when I drop on the target, the handler is never called, and nothing happens. I expect that I am overlooking something simple, but, as might be expected, I can't see it.
When I drag onto a different type of control, it is working correctly, and dragging to the control in question was once working correctly, but not anymore. I did make a bunch of changes, but the fundamental issue is that the dragdrop event is never raised for the control that is the drop target.
I need to create a program that can run code each time the user clicks, I can't use windows forums since its on another program. If the code can detect global mouse clicks(system wide) or only on one program it's fine.
I've done some digging and it looks like windows API can solve my problem but i really suck at using windows API and it looks like SetWindowsHookEx() can solve my problem but i don't know how to use it correctly. This is the code from Pinvoke that I modified to hopefully work for a mouse click. i'm having trouble getting this to work.
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim t As New MouseHook

I have a picturebox that has a semi-complex image on it and also has a series of other pictureboxes, most of which are set to not visible. The way the program works, the user can click and drag a couple different items on the parent picturebox. The things they can drag are not actual controls, but parts of the image itself. That is all working fine. While testing, I had all of the subordinate pictureboxes (there are a variable number of them) visible showing a black background. I have now improved their implementation, so I changed the display so that only the subordinate pictureboxes that actually have something in them are visible. For all the others, they have .Visible = False.
The problem is that when I click and drag on one of the items in the parent picturebox, all the invisible pictureboxes become visible. They have no image in them, so they take on the color of the backgroud behind the parent picturebox. This is undesirable. I want the invisible pictureboxes to remain invisible during the drag and drop action. The one solution that seems promising is to set the image of all those pictureboxes to some transparent image such that, though they are visible, they will not appear as anything. A bit of testing shows that this technique would work.
I have finally got the drag and drop to work on my form, so the user can drop files on it. I have used the msdn example so i can get the whole filename (path + filename). But how do i get only the filename? (lol.zip) And maybe the path where it is?

I am building a 'shape editor' which looks very similar to the Visual Studio form designer. I have a Toolbox control that holds a few 'Shapes' (such as RectangleShape, EllipseShape, TriangleShape, etc) which the user should be able to drag to the design view ("Canvas") in any MDI form. The Toolbox control is just a TreeView except that I add ToolboxItems to it (which are inherited TreeNodes). This dragging however does not seem to work...

1) I'm dragging a file (.txt) into a rtb which works fine, but how do I get the filename? (messagebox whatever)
2) How do I restrict files to drop? (like a .exe)

Dim Files() As String
Files = e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.FileDrop)
Dim sReader As New StreamReader(Files(0))

I want just "The Big Bang Theory S01E01 - Pilot" to go into the listbox.
