C# - Adding Picture Description On A Separate Form?
May 27, 2012
I have picture boxes added to a FlowLayout panel and a ContextMenu strip (associated with picture boxes) with 'Add description' item.
When I right click on a PictureBox and select 'Add description', a new form pops with large preview of the picture and a text box to write the description.
How can I preserve the text written by the user on the new form, after it's closed, so if user wants to edit the description, he doesn't have to type it from scratch again?
I figured I'd have to store the description somewhere and load it into the form when user clicks on the same picture again, but how can I know what picture he clicked on?
I have a few forms that have a lot of really intensive updating along with a great deal of user interface (text boxes, button clicking etc) Is it possible to open a separate form as a separate UI thread from the start up form that called it to "show" or open or whatever the new method might be?
My problem is, I just finish creating a program, that loads a picture and description of a selection from a radio button.
Everything works on MY comp, but when i go to my lil sister comp and load the .exe file there, everything works too EXCEPT the image....the error is something along the line " C:documentspictures ame.jpg" not found.
My question is: how would I store the image to the program via another file or the program itself. so that when I "build" my program, I just need to run the .exe and lets say another file "for ex: .dll ", with all the images stored inside. And I dont know how to create and work with .dll file or whatever file is more convience.
For some reason, the following code is causing me some issues. This code pulls lockout status data from AD and contains the data within a datatable. An event is raised from the threaded procedure to add the data to a listview control. For some reason one row of data gets added to the listview control and when you run the procedure gain, 2 rows of the same data gets added, and then 3 rows, etc.
This code calls the procedure "CallGetUserLockout" GetLockoutStatusToolStripMenuItem.DropDownItems.Add("For Current User - " & User, Nothing, AddressOf CallGetUserLockout)
How do i load the Main form of a WPF so that a seperate thread goes and gets data from the database while the form is in an apartmentstate? (drag-able / movable) I Know this is possible with opening a new window from your main form like this :
Private Sub openOrderWindow() Dim OrderWindow As Orders = New Orders OrderWindow.ShowDialog() End Sub
[code]....
I've tried putting MyBase.ShowDialog() and .Show() and .9000+ other things The only benefit I've got out of using a seperate thread to load from the databse is i can see the screen right away (as oppose to it being a transparent box until it loads) but i cannot move it around or minimize it?is there any way to make it Movable while it loads?
Basically im trying to add 4 new picture boxes everytime a specific text changes. This is a picture developer based off the binary of a number 1 - 10 I can get 4 to change everytime the text changes but i have no idea how to add 4 everytime the text changes. here is the coding i have so far.
Imports System.Drawing Public Class Form1 Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
i have a problem that wants to display a random series of coin tosses(coins flipped per each user click)i can't get the picture box to display the coins
Public Class CoinToss Dim randomObject As New Random() 'creates random object 'display results of coin toss
[code].....
it should count the number of time the "toss" button is pressed and display that number as welli also need to add a flip module that doesn't take arguments and displays false for tails and true for heads, but i'm stuck
I created a telephone number form where the user enters the telephone number in a text box as (nnn) nnn-nnnn. The first 3 digits in parenthesis are the ISD code, the next three are the area code and the last four are the local number. I need to separate out these three fields of the phone number and display in three separate text boxes labeled appropriately. Now, suppose the user enters the phone number in a text box as a continuous string of 10 digits, where the first three represent the ISD code, the next three represent the area code and the last four represent the local number. I'm lost as how to change this string into the form (nnn) nnn-nnnn. This is what I have
I have a TabControl object on my form with many tabs created in code (TabPages) and my problem is that the same objects that are in the initial TabPage needs to be in the other TabPages created in code, I have this done in code when the user clicks the 'New Tab' menu option, however the same code is used for any new tabs created. The problem created here is that I have an event against one of the objects that appear in the other TabPages, but because the same code is used to create any new tab pages, the event will only work on the newest tab page, if that makes sense? By the way these objects that appear on the other TabPages are properties at the top so events can be handled against them in the respective subroutine.
I'll get straight to my problem - I'm currently coding in Visual Studio.I have a table (countries) with the columns ID | Name. The table is filled with around 28 records.I also have a form with 4 combo boxes (set up as 1,2,3 & 4) that I want the user to select. These combo boxes will display the names from the table countries. I then want to use the selected names in the combo boxes to Insert into their corresponding ID into another table. For example England would have the ID 1, USA the ID 2 etc.So, is it possible to have separate combo boxes that will give separate ID values but using the same table? At the moment I can't seem to find a solution.Eventually the form will have more than 4 combo boxes so I don't want to use separate bindingsources for each combo box.
I have a few problems i need to solve. Firstly, I am looking for a piece of code i can use to display a picture from a bank of pictures. It will work on the basis of generating a random number and loading a picture that corresponds to that number.
i.e. Dim RandNumber As Integer Dim RandClass As New Random RandNumber = RandClass.next(1, 10) If RandNumber = 1 Then Picturebox1.image = picture1
[Code]...
Secondly, can I then use subsequent picture boxes to display pictures from the same bank of images, without displaying the same image? Finally, I then need to be able to click the picture or a button beneath the picture to select it as an answer to a question and then the whole process starts again.
In an application with multitab on a user Form after collecting some information I will plug it into an access database and collect data and disply it with another "Second" User form.On the second user form I make a selection from 1-10 selection on the second user form, and again I will read the access database using the selected data by the user and would like to plug in to the First user form and close second user form.Somehow my textfield is not accessible and I get the yellow tip of "PLName is not member of 'Windows.System.Forms.Form'"[code]
I have a windows form with a textbox bound to a data table and a PDF Viewer both in the same form. I could change the text on the textbox and the Viewer would show whatever is linked to the textbox. I am trying to create a separate form to put the viewer in but at a loss on how to link it to the textbox on the first form.
In a project I'm working on, I have 3 separate mazes, a Splash Screen, and a Module for my global variable(gWin, to detect wins on the mazes). When you finish a maze, I'd like to get it so that it does not allow you to go back and redo a maze, to prevent cheating as I want a final screen to appear when they complete all 3 of the mazes. Is there a way that I can make a variable or something to be able to check if a maze was already completed then cause that maze to have it's .Enabled property set to false?
I Have a textBox on a form to give me my IP address (but I have 3 anwser's going into 1 textBox) When I use a button to revile The anwser's,all in one Textbox .How can I seperate Each anwser's with a space. Code Below: (TextBox5 is the TextBox I need to seperate the Answers) [code]
when I open an application to make changes, and I open the toolbox, it appears in the work area with my form. How can I get the toolbox to be to the left and separate from the form?
This may sound silly but is it possible to run a separate exe and call a specific form to load?
For example:
Let's say I have two exes one that checks licensing and then once that is done it calls another separate exe to load a specific form based on the type of license selected?
It sounds doable but can anyone share a snip it of code that may do the trick?
I've looked at the on line doc over and over, and I can't seem to figure out why this won't work. This code runs the thread, and the thread seems to execute the code in the 'threadsafe' sub, however neither the progress bar is updated or the button click performed.
Imports System.Threading Public Class VisNotify Inherits Form
I'm creating a project but I only need exe's as my final thing. I don't know how to put it in simple terms, but here is how I need it to be..The main window remains open i.e.frmMain. ther other forms are only called by an external program (LanSafe UPS Software) every time something happens (Either batteries gets disconnected or power fails). Each of these forms have to be separate executable files. This application is for sending SMSs using Fusion 100 modem. Is what I need possible?
okay on my main form i created an instance of another form
Dim secondform As New frmSecond and i called it with this
secondform.ShowDialog() okay now when the secondform pops up there is a "OK" button and "Cancel" button. how can i tell which button was clicked? If "OK" was clicked i want to perform a task, otherwise nothing happens..
When I create more than one instance of the same form and I call a method on any of these instances, the code only fires on the most recently created instance. Even when I click a button on that form, it executes on the other form. How can I call these and keep them as distinct objects?
For example: if I build Form1 with a public method called ChangeMyColor and a button to call that method. Then in the main app I set MyForm1 = New Form1 and MyForm2 = New Form1, then call MyForm1.ChangeMyColor, the color changes on the second instance. Even if I click that button on the first instance, the color still changes on the second.
I have VB.NET application in which one of the form has IE control in it, the application starts initially with memory size consumed around 9 MBs, but when IE form is launched, the memory consumed rises to 27 MB, and when that form is closed, the memory reduces merely by 3-4 MBs, so why memory allocated to IEFrame is not de-allocated automatically?
