VS 2010 How To Design A Dynamic 'meter'
Nov 26, 2010
I'm at a stage with my first real program where I'm putting some effort into the UI.I'd like to have a "meter", of "velocity" type, you know the ones in vehicles.I'm thinking of having an arrow that I've drawn in Illustrator pointing in a specific angles depending on values it gets from a database. i'm thinking of having on arrow pointing straight up, and two similar ones, only being diagonal in the picturebox (to the left and right respectively), thus enabling me to resize the picturebox and stretch the image. However that's not a pretty solution is it? Is there a way to place the arrow at an angle inside the picturebox, or the picturebox itself?

Ihave written a Visual Basic program to read serial data from an Atmel micro-controller that monitors a solar panel and a wind turbine. I have used a label box to display the digital data from the serial port and all works well.The data from the micro-controller is formatted like this (Battery voltage XX.XX) (Solar voltage XX.XX) etc.I would like to add a analog meter with a 0 to 24 scale to the program that will display the value from the micro-controller but am unable to find anything listed in the help menu of Visual Studio 2010.I have used the terms analog meter, meter and instrumentation in the help menu to look for a template but nothing comes back.Can someone either point me to a visual studio 2010 meter template and or some sample code or best of all.

how to graphically show an analog needle moving similar to an old analog meter. I have the picture of the meter I created in paint brush. What I need to know if possible is how do I show the needle moving to a certain value. Basically one end of the needle will be fixed in the middle bottom of the picture and it would move accordingly at a certain angle to my calculations of a certain process.

The following link is a volume control [url]...
the exe file works beautifully.
here is the problem : in vb i added the volume meter dll and did :project reference to add : progressbargradient.dll, Microsoft.DirectX.dll, and Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound.dll
and connected webcam with microphone but i get the error "Microsoft.DirectX.dll' is attempting managed execution inside OS Loader lock. Do not attempt to run managed code inside a DllMain or image initialization function since doing so can cause the application to hang."

My progress meter finishes too soon. I want my meter to end on the last loop. But instead it finishes on the first step of the loop instead of the last loop. I know I am missing something very simple, but I have no idea as to what it is? [code]

I am trying to track the progress of a meter in a flash window and click when it reaches a certain point. I am currently using getpixel() to "watch" a single pixel and when it changes to green, perfrom a click. Problem is i have to "watch a pixel" about 20 pixels left of the intended target and then click. Reason, when the program has realized the pixel is green, it clicks, but this has not been as accurate as needed. Sometimes it clicks to soon and sometimes it clicks to late.
Before you suggest using DIBS, i didn't use it because i am loading a 1x1 screenshot and watching that pixel in a loop. I figured since i was continously loading a new bitmap via getpixel that dibs would not be any quicker. The way i read dibs is that if i was loading a bunch of pixels it would be faster because it goes ahead and loads into an array.Is there another way to monitor a meter in a flash window?

I am trying to use a power meter to track the progress of my program; this will be for my use only and will be removed later. I would also like to display the percentage run in the meter. I already know what the start and end points will be for the meter. What do I need to search for? I have been looking and haven�t been able to find anything that suits my needs yet. I am running VB 2005.

I'm updating a large VB6 app to .Net. The database design will stay mainly the same but I'm considering making a few changes. The one I'm not sure of is if I should change how the "totalAcres" for a "User" is stored. This involves three tables(I'll only list the relevant fields),

Firstly we need a deck object which in my case is a queue of type card. My question is relating to the card object.Would it be good programming to contain the card image within the card class so that the card object could be placed direct into some container or is it best to handle the card image within the main class.

This 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.

I've finished a number of project and feedback has been about the working functionality of them but the general look of .net controls "is aged" in their eyes.For example if I looked a picasa from google. The left meu is a treeview.The main window is a listview and they are seperated by a split container. The buttons look soft and rounded.

To detect if a usercontrol is being resized in design mode I added this to the UserControl.Designer.vb code....
Protected Overrides Sub OnResize(ByVal e As EventArgs)
If Me.DesignMode Then
' Call a Sub in my UserControl
End If
End Sub
Ok that works, Now do I also need to include MyBase.OnResize(e), if yes then where do I add it?

Is there a shortcut to get to the designview form in a winforms project in visual studio 2010.F7 will take you to code behind class form and shift + F7 will take you to design mode. Is there a shortcut to filename.designer.cs formWhere you have the control definitions, delegates (for click event etc). defined. I go to the form often if I change the name of click event etc.I have to go through solution explorer and click on the file. Is there a shortcut like F7 that opens the designer.cs file?

I'm trying to hone up on my (beginner) coding skills & I would prefer that the the 'Designer coding window', not the 'Design window', wouldn't interfere with these studies. Sometimes it's there & sometimes it's not. I don't understand it at this point & would prefer it wasn't there. All I need is the 'Design window' & the 'regular coding window'.
