I've got a strange thing goin on here. I'm designing a small program with Visual Studio 2010 using WPF and VB.Net but for some reason, all my buttons and checkboxes (didn't test more items) aren't clickable anymore! Even if I drag a pretty new one out of the VS-Toolbox! They've got all "IsFocousable" and "IsHitTestVisible" and "IsEnabled"-Setting set to "True". Does someone has an idea to fix that!?
View 1 RepliesI monitor door cameras with a third party application that gives me multiple video windows for the various video inputs in the card. I want to create an application that will overlay the video windows so that each video window becomes a button I can click on to trigger some events (lock release for example).
I've managed to get something working by using the TransparencyKey of the form set to the backcolor of my button. I though I had it done, a great transparent button in the form, and handles all my click. However, there's a little issue with portability... it won't work if I have the Windows Classic theme enabled.
One of my systems is locked down with the windows classic theme. With the Windows classic theme (whether running XP or Vista), the transparency works a little too well, the mouse clicks actually go through to the underlying window and the click event never gets triggered on my application's button.
Button1.BackColor = Color.Cyan Me.TransparencyKey = Button1.BackColor
First post here, so I have no clue if this is the right place to ask this or not, but it looked like it.
Anyways, what I'm trying to do as an exercise is make a roulette game. I decided it would be best to put my buttons ON the actual table itself, so that the player can click which one he wants to bet on, and it'll bring up an Input Box asking how much he wants to bet, and yeah.
So, I tossed a button on there, set the parent to the picturebox of the roulette table, set the back color to transparent, and got rid of the text. Lo and behold, it's transparent!
[code]I can't figure out how to make those pictureboxes in flowlayoutpanel clickable. Any example will do - opening it in default picture browser, using it as panel background or using it as a picture for separate picturebox - anything will do - I simply do not know how to get the file name assiciated with the particular picturebox in the flowlayoutpanel.

View 4 RepliesI dynamically created n amount of labels. I want them to have the same function when single clicked only they have a different number passed. I don't know how to make it so that I can click them, and run a sub/function with the number passed... If I would've made it statically, I'd just do this.

For my own amusement more than anything I am trying to create a program that has a world map then when you click on each country it leads to another form. At the moment I have the World Map as a background image on a forum, The only way I can think of at the moment is to have picture boxes but the countries are too packed together for this to work effectively and I believe that you can have transparent backgrounds on picture boxes.
View 3 RepliesI want a clickable area (that can handle MouseClickEvent, DoubleClickEvent, etc...) that is transparent, hence you can look through it.For example: I have Form1 with a bunch of buttons, text fields, etc. I want a clickable area that is over the whole Form1 (thus over all the buttons, etc).If you click this area, the clickEvent for this area should be could and not the eg: button underneath this area.Most importantly of all the area must be transparent, thus all the buttons, textfields, etc underneath the clickable area should be visible. Something like a panel or pictureBox that you could put over the buttons would be fine, but a if you drag a panel/pictureBox over a button, the button is invisible, and if you say send to back, the event of the button will be called and not that of the clickable area.I want the blue area (in this case a picture box) over ALL the buttons and textboxes, so that if you click this blue area a function should be called. This area should actually not be blue, but transparent/colourless, so that you can see the buttons underneath. If I say send the picturebox behind the buttons, then when I click on a button, the button's function is called and not the picture box's function as I want it.It is impossible for me to change all the event handlers of the buttons/textboxes etc, because I also use components that don't have the necessary event handlers that I want.

Another thing is this form for Daily Income. I want the form at the back (Main Form) not clickable unless I closes the Daily Income Form.

View 1 RepliesI have a DataGridViewImageColumn with an image in it I would like to make the only area to perform a function of mine when I click it. I can click the row and get it to work but can't seem to only make just the imagecloumn the clickable region.
So as an example I have
Private Sub dgrdStatus_CellClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles dgrdStatus.CellClick
MessageBox.Show("You chose " & dgrdStatus.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells("columnCustomerName").Value)
Works for the whole row, my issue is I only want to be able to click the imagecolumn to do this. Guessing I am missing the right item similar to dgrdStatus_CellClick but can't quite pinpoint the fix.

View 2 RepliesI made the awful mistake of using a module instead of a class. Now, I have a control, (who inherit from a web browser), hidden under a modal form. And I need to show his content (and being it clickable) to the user, but it is hidden, and I don't want to mess with the Showmodal of the hinder form. Until I modify my code, so I can do multiple instances of my browser, I need to show that control to the user on a third form. I think that I can temporary change the .parent property of the browser, so a third modal form shows it.
But I fear that I possibly made the browser control hard coded as working in the bottom hidden form, so If I change his parent, I may broke some logic. Is there a way to show the control on a third form, without changing his parent? (and still have it clickable). I know I are asking for trouble. It is only a short term solution until I move all my module into an instantiate able class. (And I remember had being advised to work ever with classes instead of modules. Now I learn the lesson the hard way).
