VB.NET Windows Forms Project, VS2010.I have a tabcontrol with several tabpages and on each tabpage there is a textbox. I want the focus (and insertion point) to go to the end of the text in the textbox when the tab is selected. If I make a junky project with the following code in each tab, it works fine:
Private Sub TabPage1_Enter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TabPage1.Enter
With TextBox1
.SelectionStart = .Text.Length
.Select()
End With
End Sub
However, the same code is not working in my actual project. I am having trouble debugging, because if I step through, the breakpoints and IDE mean the focus events don't fire in the same order.
I have a created a program that allows the user to select an option button and that button takes them to the correct tab. Ive set all the tabs to visable = false untill the option button has been selected. The problem i am having is setting the focus, so the button sgoes to the tab instead of just making it visable again.
View 2 RepliesThe only way I found to set the focus on a TextBox inside a TabPage is:
Private Sub Form1_Shown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Shown
TextBox1.Focus()
End Sub
I have hit a brick wall with my latest project.In essence the entire tab control is created on the fly, i have successfully added any number of tabs with the tabpage title being filled correctly. my problem however is when i add the content itself to the correct page, i have no item displayed on any tabs and however i can retrieve the contents and change them with code.
My code takes a pricelist xml file from my works website and my code is supposed to allow this content to be edited and returned to the server with adjusted prices to reflect updates in our costing. All the code works except the part to display the data, and consequently the code to use this data to update the array used for the xml while the program is running is not written.

View 4 RepliesAm just goin on 3 weeks of teaching myself vb2010 and have found a long way to do a simple task. Well it seems it should be a simple task. I have about 12 different listboxes spread over 3 different tabcontrols. There are 3 buttons that load all the listboxes according to which tabcontrol they are in. I found that when populating the listboxes it would not clear before loading the information so it would basically double post, triple post etc. I've figured out one way to do it that I've put in a sub and call the line before the tabcontrols are populated with their listboxes. Here is the sub:

It seems like a longwinded way to do this is their an easier way to have one command clear all listboxes within all tabpages within all tabcontrols on the form??

View 4 RepliesI have a Tabcontrol, and when the program loads it adds a tab. Inside this tab goes a panel (url, back, etc buttons to be added to it) and a webbrowser control.Problem is the panel docks to the top and when you fill the webrowser control the webbrowser goes behind the panel and not under it so the top is cut off.[code]Or anyone know how to remove the tabcontrol from the tabpages so theres a gap in-between to input this panel.
View 4 RepliesIn my VB application I have a tabcontrol, with 3 pages, the first page is for some contact data, the second page wil show the website of your contact and the third page shows the location of you contact (I used the webcontrol). when I switch from page 1 to page 2 or wathever, the text in my textboxes disapears en my first page. It happens most of the times, sometimes it just works but most of the time it freaks out.

View 3 RepliesI have a custom (inherited) TabControl which adds Drag/Drop functionality to it, so that one can drag the tabs around, either within the same control (to re-order them) or to and from other TabControls. I've noticed some time ago that my TabControl however was not raising its MouseClick and MouseUp events (or actually: it is not calling its OnMouseClick and OnMouseUp methods, which comes down to the same thing). I've been struggling with this problem for a long while and I finally figured out what is happening. I'm no closer to figuring out what to do about it though... The problem seems related to the drag drop functionality. I have this code in the OnMouseDown method (which is raised as usual):

I am loading forms into a TabControl creating a new tab page each time the form is loaded. ** I would like to point out that I am using UC instead of a from**
Now, I can easily have many tabs with the same form loaded. On the form I have a 'Search Button' So my question is, after clicking the search button how can I tell which instance of the form the 'Search Button' was clicked? Hope this makes sense

I'm using a TabControl and have overridden the DrawItem event to produce my own background and foreground colors for the header text. It looks good but there's still grey color around each header. I thought maybe the Padding property could be set to (0,0) but that seemed to have no effect.
View 2 RepliesSo, I know from the user32 dll, and I set that as focused.
Is there a easy way of determining if the app has focus?
im using send keys, and i dont want it typing the keys and such, if the app doesnt have focus.
Also, if you click off of it, etc... It's more so a pause thing...
The only other way I can think of, is setting it so,
If myapp has focus, then pause the keysends.... then if it loses focus, assume the app i want has focus again.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create a grid usercontrol.This means that when i press "UP" it goes to the cell above (...so on for all directions) tab goes to the right and enter goes down.Now all these keys (excluding enter) change control focus so i've got a problem using them.How can i lock focus on the control so that these keys won't change it and so that i can use these keys for other things?
View 5 RepliesI have an application that just stores shortcuts to most used applications on users desktops. My problem is that when the machine loads after they login the app window looses focus and sometimes doesn't show in the taskbar. I tried to use Me.Focus() but that just gives the treeview focus and not the form itself. I mean the parent has focus in the treeview but the form is not highlighted, I can then click on the form and it gets selected.
What is a good way to get the whole form focus? I used me.focus in the form load too.

My problem is that I dont have an idea how to check is that form already opened and if it is simply to focus it... Now I can open as many as I want same forms (on the picture this are couple same child forms, what I don't want...So I need simple check is this child form opened and if yes focus it?
Does anyone know if you can remove focus from all controls on a form so a user doesn't inadvertently cause action on a control when it's unintended such as hitting Enter at the same time your app appears causing some action to occur? Do you have to leave focus on at least one control?
View 12 RepliesI have a form with 3 controls that have TabIndex values set:Combo box (cboPostpone) - TabIndex = 0 Postpone Button - TabIndex = 1 Install Now button - TabIndex = 2
The code below is part of the Timer1.Tick event The code below seems to change the focus but then when trying to tab through the controls, it stays on the combo box.
[Code]...
Lastly, I removed cboPostpone.Focus() command from the Timer1.Tick event and move it to the Postpone button Click event. I run the focus command right after the me.hide command. I delayed it the first time and it came back with the Postpone button in focus again instead of the combo box.
A form's key events will fire when you press a key. Place a control on that form and it won't happen any more because that control has focus. There are exceptions to this however as you will see if you place just a h or v scrollbar on the form. The key event will fire because the scrollbars can't receive focus as is demonstrated by the following
Private Sub ScrollBar1_GotFocus(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles VScrollBar1.GotFocus
Debug.Print("Scroll GF")
End Sub
[code]....
So I've made my own special scrollbar usercontrol and i can't figure out how to have it leave the key events alone. I'm pretty sure that the problem is that my usercontrol can receive focus at the moment.
I found that the way of doing this is "SetStyle(Windows.Forms.ControlStyles.Selectable, False)". I put that in the new event of my usercontrol and now it looks like this:
Public Sub New()
' This call is required by the designer.
InitializeComponent()
Is there a more efficient/easier way changing the backcolor of a control when it has focus and lost focus? Let's say I've got 10 text boxes. Right now I would have 20 different events...10 for Enter event and 10 for Leave event. Of course, entering would change the back color to "green" and leaving would change it back to "white".
