Allow The User To Add Locations For Direct3D Icons?
Jan 23, 2010
I'm making a scripter to allow the user to add locations for Direct3D Icons, but I'm trying to make a sub for it...
Public Sub icoadd(ByVal mod1 As String, ByVal mod2 As String)
loc.X = defined.Location.X
loc.Y = defined.Location.Y

I have a generic question regarding file paths and user interfaces. I am trying to build a user-interface to accommodate various file locations. I typically build interfaces which deal with files on drives. As such, I use a directory tree for this. I usually work with files on local drives. However if I wanted to ensure that all file locations were dealt with I would want to ensure that I was accommodating files in all drives (local, network, mappped etc.). I am assuming that the treeview would support all of these drive option.
However if the files are on a sharepoint site or in some other type of enterprise content system, then am I correct to assume that these file paths will be URLs? If so, then am I correct to assume that a directory tree is not the correct control to use for these locations? Should I be providing a textbox to the user and prompting them to enter this URL? Or is it better to have the URL loaded into a ListView or ListBox (i.e. "My Connections") and then provide these as options via a dropdown box. I am trying to picture a typical user interface. Is it a directory tree AND a text box/dropdown box.

On a word document I would like to populate same data captured via User Form on multiple locations of a document... i.e. LastName I would like to appear on salutation paragraph and also in the body of the letter... I used REF LastName on the document when using VBA but it seems the same document when it is being populated via a VB application this skim does not work and instead "Error! Reference source not found." appears where ever the REF LastName has been used..

I am trying to add icons to a listview that would contain a list of programs added by the user. I am pulling my hair out over this. I had the solution a few days ago and then I decided to go in another direction and then cleared my browser history. I have searched for that code for awhile now to no avail. First person gets a cookie.

TortoiseSVN and Dropbox both have Windows shell extensions that make file icons within Windows Explorer show a small icon beside the main one, showing the file's status - has it been synced, etc How can I make my application show icons beside files like that using the Windows API? Or is there some file attribute to do that?

OK, I've read everything I could find about this loader lock exception: DLL <name>.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.
Just turning off the loader lock exception in the managaged debugging assistants doesn't work (my real application then hangs), and all the work-arounds are for doing things in C++ that I can't do in VB (like setting linker options). So, can anyone tell me how to make this simple blank form (with two additional lines of code in the constructor) avoid a loaderlock execption under VS2008? (If I know what to do to fix this toy example, I can probably fix my real app.)

i'm working on a simple 3D CAD to create complex 3D objects. This application uses:
1. Direct3D to render the objects
2.The methods contained in the Mesh class (such as Mesh.Box(...)) to create them
3.The Matrix class to apply some basic transformations (such as Translation or Rotation)
My issue is to do a boolean subtraction of a Mesh to another one to create a more complex Mesh, for example a Mesh with holes.

SI like doing random things like 3D objects inside a windows form. With that said, I'm creating an application that will, eventually, write the code for me, after I do it myself visually.If you run the app it will make some more sense I guess.Now, to rotate the cubes, I'm using
.Transform.World = Matrix.RotationYawPitchRoll(CSng(CubeRx(1) / 10), CSng(-CubeRy(1) / 10), CSng(CubeRz(1) / 10))
now I do not want the world to rotate, just my individual cubes.Here's an example of me referring to my cube in action
If howmanycubes >= 1 Then
' vb2 = New VertexBuffer(GetType(CustomVertex.PositionNormalColored), 36, d, Usage.Dynamic And Usage.WriteOnly, CustomVertex.PositionColored.Format, Pool.Default)
[code]....
how to apply textures to the cube.instructions:When running the program, type in values on right side and click create cube.before you click create cube again, those same text boxes will adjust your current cube.Then when you click create new, it places another cube ontop of your current cube, so you'll need to give it new values.Not much validation is going on so some bad values will cause crashes.

this error seems to be an error on Microsoft's part with Windows 7 and DirectX9. DirectX11 on Windows 7 should be able to run DirectX9, but it says it can't find the assembly called "Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.dll". I know for a fact that he can play Assasins Creed on Windows 7 which uses DirectX9.. Why does that game work but not my application? I'm using VB.NET btw.

Im currently working my way through understanding direct3D with visual basic for windows mobile. So far I have managed to write a fairly decent engine that allows me to create and transform any number of 3D primitives and 2D sprites. However I cant seem to figure out how to get Direct3D to apply any sort of shading to my meshes. Regardless of what angle they are to the camera, or their position in 3D space, they remain a solid flat color on every single polygon of the mesh.

After a path is defined with all its components, is there a version of the DrawPath that allows the composite object to be drawn in locations other than the initial locationsFor example, the code shown below displays an ellipse and two rectangles in a specificocation. To also display the same objects in one or more other location,s, is it possible to disply the defined path at other locations or is it necessary

I am working on making a picturebox that when clicked in a general location it will do something. Is there a way to make a grid out of a picture so when a certain slot on that grid is clicked an event will happen? It cant be an exact location, because that will be too hard to click. but a relative location would be perfect.

The file locations for a setup package using Standard Edition? I have added an .xls file to my project, marked it as Content and as Copy Always in the properties for that file. The XLS file I added to the project is from my user Apps folder in the Roaming sub folder. Other simple .TXT files are in my UserMy DocumentsData folder and each file is also maked as Content and Copy Always. When I create the setup package all goes well. I have a setup.exe and an .msi file. When I test it by installing it on my PC of course the program knows where the files are because it's my PC. In the program folder created as C:Program FilesMyProgram I find the .exe plus the XLS and TXT files, but these XLS and TXT files are not used from the program folder. How might I know if an installation made by another user on another PC elsewhere is going to load files in their user apps or user documents? I need to be sure that the additional data files deploy to the correct location (whatever I want that to be) on a remote PC.

I have a collection of locations for a sales person, allowing them to send an item to multiple locations. I want to start reading at index 1 since I am using a collection. I saw an example where you can say something like "+ 1" (e.g. myitem.SelectedIndex + 1) to skip the first record. How can I skip the first record for the following:
Public ReadOnly Property Customer() As ICustomer
Get
Return CType(Me.CustomerList.Item(Me.CustomerNumSelected), ICustomer)
End Get
End Property
I tried to say Return CType(Me.CustomerList.Item(Me.CustomerNumSelected + 1), ICustomer) but it returns an error saying "string cannot be converted to a double". without the + 1 in there, I get an error that says "collection index must be in range 1 to size of collection".

I'm working on a little board game we play here in Jamaica just to see how it would look and as a sort of challenge for myself while on vacation. I'm however stuck on how to make my markers (PictureBoxes - two per player) move along the board.So heres my problem; I have 40 slots where the picturebox can be moved to (eg picturebox1.Top = 324, picturebox1.left=243). Now moving to these slots are determined by the roll of a pair of dice. How can I assign a variable preferably an integer for each slot so when the dice is rolled I can just do a little addition as to where the markers can be moved?

I am trying to create an install for my application that I have just created using visual basic express. I want to be able to tell it to put files in certain locations and create my own installer. For example I want to make a license page with a read me on the installer. From what I understand the clickonce technology is what comes with express editions and you cannot do it with them. Is there an alternative to being able to accomplish what I want to do without having to purchase the full version of visual studio?

Greetings,
My app saves a bunch of stuff to an XML file. This is my line of code-
Using writer As XmlWriter = XmlWriter.Create("C:vdx2kMWSREEXTReportsInboxTK" & frmCitation.txtCiteNumber.Text & "Traff.xml", settings)
So that saves it at that specific location.
I need to duplicate the XML and have it also save in another location. I've been at this for days, Googling, searching, trying different things and now I need to turn here for help.
Any ideas?

frm.Location = "0,0"
or
frm.Location = (0,0)
tell what is the correct syntax ?
And more thing : when a form is maximized or minimized , it looks like "flying" upwards or downwards . Is it possible to stop that visual efect ?

I'm trying to figure out how to keep control locations relative on maximize. For example, if i have a button on the very right hand of my window, when i maximize it, i want the button to remain on the very right hand. Or when i grow my window, i want my controls to change location so its always relative to the size of the window. how can i achieve this?
EDIT: To provide a better example, if i have a window with a button in the center, when i maximize that window the button should remain in the center rather than in the same location as before and therefore being out of place.
