I have a form that asks the user for certain search criteria. Based on this it goes and searches Active Directory for computer accounts. Whilst this search is happening I want the cursor to change to the hourglass but I've tried
Nothing works. The cursor stays firmly as the default cursor.This is the code that calls the form
Dim inputform As New MachineSearchInputForm
If inputform.ShowDialog = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
Dim PropertiesToLoad As String() = New String() {"name", "distinguishedname", "objectclass"}
Ok, so I know I have to change the labeledit to true but that doesn't change the selected node to be able to edit, so how does that work?
Along with renaming I have it set to that a user can add a node. So once the node has ben added how do I let them rename it as it is being added and without being a prompt or inputbox? So lets say I cam clicked on a parent and they click add node, it adds it to parent but I have it so it is default "New" but I want them to edit it as it is added. I think it will be along the same lines as clicking on one and rename but I have to start some place.
I have a test app driven by bluetooth serial events In my form load code I hide the cursor so it doesn't get in the way of pictures (fullscreen) When one event is called by bluetooth, it brings up a msgbox and the user has to click OK. I tried Windows.Forms.Cursor.Show() but it doesn't work.
I'm guessing it's something to do with delegates and events and the form, but the debugger doesn't complain at any point. It just refuses to show the cursor. How can I get my serialport event to show the cursor? And then hide it after?
I have a strange issue when binding a combobox in a WPF window.I am loading a List object, to populate the combobox, through it's .ItemsSource, on Window Load, however, it does not populate.At least, not until the arrow is clicked on. Once the arrow is clicked on, the window freezes up, and after a minute or so, the 4000+ records are displayed in it.Now, the list gets loaded, however, when I click on the combobox it takes awhile for it to render, so how can I show a waitcursor while it is rendering the list?Here's the Xaml for it:
Private Sub CreateTask_Loaded(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs) Handles Me.Loaded Using New WaitCursor _LA.Show() Me.tOrder.ItemsSource = GetOrderList()
I'm working on a simple base form in which all the other forms in the project will inherit. This base form only adds 5 properties (at the moment) dealing with painting a gradient background. The problem I'm facing right now is when I change a property on Form1 (the test form) and click run it doesn't show that change. I also checked the .designer.vb file and when I make a change it's not added to the code behind file, I'm at a loss right now to why.
is there anyway to change the image of a cursor or are we only allowed to set the cursor to one of the ones in Cursors.[etc]i've been thinking of faking it in a way that i set Cursor.Hide then track the Mouse Move and make an image follow the Mouse,
i want to change the cursor style i change from properties of form but there is only limited availability want to change it like square box or rectangular. i have image when i place the picture on picture box the cursor will change to box?
I am making a maze game and I want the cursor to be a different cursor that I made but I'm not sure how to change the cursor without having it hovering over a label or button.
im in a project using drag and drop events and.. , when i drag a label image, i need to change te cursor pointer from an image that is on a labelike the SO windows when you drag a file appears like a mirror with alfa minimun so its like the image but more transparent when i drag i need to change the cursor pointer from an image that i'm dragging by the way im, using visual studio .net and im programming in visual basic
I would like to change the image used for the mouse cursor with a personal picturehow can i do thiswhich kind of exstension the peacture must have in order to be use as mouse cursor?
I want to catch mouse cursor change event in vb.net. for example, If i place the cursor in textbox then the cursor will change as IBeam. I want to capture when the cursor changes using vb.net.
I am currently creating a program that will change the cursor's image and let it stay like that until the user clicks use default image button. I do not mean like Me.Cursor = New Cursor("C:\cursor.ico") I mean as in even if the user's cursor leaves the form, it will still display the custom cursor only.
I have got only this much done so far, and the code is not 100% working either. Private Sub ChangeCursorButton_Click() System.Windows.Forms.Cursor.Hide() 'only hides the cursor when your mouse is on the form, need to fix that Me.Cursor = New Cursor("cursor.ico") 'had no choice but to use this for now, even if when your cursor is out of the form it will revert to the original. [Code] .....
The code only works if your cursor is on the form. If its not, it doesn't work as intended. I need the code to work that the cursor will hide the original cursor and let the custom cursor I declared shown.
I tried "PictureBox1.Cursor = Cursors.Hand" but that isn't what I'm wanting... I want the hand that "grabs" when you click. You can find it in picture editors and such. The "Cursors.Hand" just points.I'm sorry if I misspelled something or my grammar is wrong, I've never done well in those subjects.
I have a program that reads pixel colors in other applications, I've got the program working correctly but trying to hovor your mouse over a single pixel on the screen using the standard mouse "Arrow" pointer is a little difficult. I've created a custom cursor that is a cross hair of sorts that makes it easier to target specific pixels, is there a way to change the mouse curse to a specified cursor when the mouse is NOT over the controlling form?
I have an application (OziExplorer) which I launch from my application. The OziExplorer API allows my application to intercept mouse single and double click operations. To make the integration of my application with OziExplorer easier for the user, I'dlike to be able to change the OziExplorer mouse icon, from my applicationto match the tool they have chosen in my application. Is this possible?
I am using VB.NET and I would really like to know how to change the Default Wait Cursor, as well as all the other cursors.I can currently change the normal cursor for my form with the following code:
Currently doing a project on an EOG mouse (eyes controlling the movement of the cursor) and I need to move the mouse in different speeds, so far I've only managed to write the codes to move it in one speed. Need some help here to move it in a few different speeds, both fast and slow.
I'm listening for the WM_SETCURSOR messages and setting the cursor there, it works most times, but not always. I've seen two other cases that I need to catch:
WM_PAINT: At least after a WM_LBUTTONDOWN the cursor is painted somehow without calling WM_SETCURSOR... WM_CAPTURECHANGED: Happening sometimes when the mouse is down and moving it.
Even doing all this the cursor sometimes flickers and the original one can be seen in some cases (eg: the instant when you roll over some object that sets the cursor to something else). I've been trying to look for some other patterns or messages but didn't see anything that would solve this problem.
Maybe I have missed something obvious. Currently I am using the feedback interrupt to change the cursor to one of the Windows supplied cursors
Instead of using the pre-packaged cursors, is it possible to use my own custom-cursor (icon), and if so - are there any rules re size etc., or can I use something like a png/jpg etc.. ?
