Cant Move Objects With Arrowkeys When Buttons Are Present?
Apr 14, 2009
I am extremely new to VB but i have most of the basics down fairly well. I can create buttons and move objects with arrow keys, for example. I am using VB Express Edition 2008. What I am trying to do is make a very basic game. So far it was going great until a little problem stumped me [see title to see where i am going with this]. Before i added buttons onto the form i was able to move my little circle man with the arrow keys up, down, left and right. When i added buttons it no longer allowed me to do such things. Now moving the arrow keys only allows me to select buttons without the mouse. It is really frustrating because i have been working very hard on this and a problem this small could ruin everything! ;)
I was wondering if there is a way to move objects with arrow keys and use buttons on the same form and if so, how do you do it?

I've made a small game that lets the user move a picturebox around with arrowkeys. The monster picturebox is moved towards the player and keeps growing while you are "alive". If it touches you, you lose.
How to improve my code. Im the worst ever at OOP programming. The main reason is i dont understand how i can pass variables between subs/functions e.t.c. I've read up on overloading operators but i dont feel that i can grasp it. If someone has any comments or any simple examples on improving my ability i wouldnt mind hearing them ^^
This is what i have now. Attached project (with "graphics") without .exe files and all code is also below. Also an image of what it looks like below.

I need code for moving objects from left to right, and from right to left using keyboard buttons.Left-Right.The object is a picturebox in a book style.So, I need the code for "opening pages" from left to right using keyboard.I had placed buttons but it looks terible like that.And its much easier listing with keyboard.

I cannot move objects (such as buttons, listboxes, etc) in the Windows Forms Designer by clicking and dragging them with my mouse. This gets really annoying after a while. However, I can move them with the key pad (up down left right) and by changing the location property. Does anyone know what is going on?
Oh and I'm running vista with all the service packs and latest updates, and I don't have any viruses (scanned with MBAM, Spybot and Avast)

I am working on a library of controls that clone Office 2010's Ribbon interface and theme. One of the controls will inherit the form control and will modify the ribbon to implement Aero Glass. This is what I have so far... In order to get the same look and feel, I've extended the aero glass margins exactly far enough to get this effect for the top 50 or so pixels. The ControlBox property is set to false, so that there's not an extra 30 pixels at the top that I don't do anything with, but now I need to get the

I have build a Car class as follows:
Code:
Public Class Car Dim CarState As Integer Dim CarPicture As New PictureBox
Public Sub DriveIn() 'This sub to drive in the car to the lot. CarState = 1 Dim x As Integer For x = 1 To 45 If x <= 12 Then CarPicture.Top -= 3 Threading.Thread.Sleep(100)
[CODE]...
Then i tried to instanciate many objects of this calss to move more than one car as follows:Public Class Form1
Private Sub btnDrive_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnDrive.Click 'Dim objCar As New Car() Dim objCar As Car objCar = New Car objCar.DriveIn() End Sub
[CODE]...
But unfortunately no car moved.

How do you get it so when you resize the form, the buttons move with the re sized form and they don't just disappear?

I know that by clicking before an object is finished moving, causes the object to move again, prematurely. I have tried using "If Timer2.Enabled = False Then move. This does not work. Is there another way to disable either the mouse or program execution until the animation objects are finished moving?

I'm doing a maze using VB10. its about moving a PictureBox between LineShape lines using buttons to move it. the problem is, can I make the picture not to move through the LineShape? if so how? or should I use something else other than the LineShape and another question can i save the progress of the maze and come back to it later? if so does it require using a database to save the location of the PictureBox?

So I am trying to make a program that allows you to move two shapes using two KeyPress events, one to move the first object and another for the second. It works, but it can only move one of the two objects, not both at the same time.

I have a piece of software with two tabs, inside each tab there are buttons (the user can add the buttons when they want). when tab1 is full tab2 should start to fill. I currently know how many buttons fit on the screen so I just say something like if buttons > 150 then start to populate tab 2 The problem i have now though is if the resolution is changed then a different amount of buttons can be displayed. so if I put my screen to 1280x720 some buttons are left of. I was thinking of detecting the resolution and then using different cases for different resolutions but this seems very inefficient im wondering if there is a different way?

What I would like to do is to have four different buttons (e.g., buttonA, buttonB, buttonC and button D). I wanna give the following instruction to the people: press these buttons in the following order: first buttonA, then buttonB, then buttonC and last buttonD. If they obey this instruction then a picture will be displayed, for instance a happy face. All the other combinations will not activate this picture to be displayed, or in other words, there won't be any consequence. I would also like to save this data using windows note pad e.g., writeline (1, xxxxxx). Is there any chance I will make it?

long story short, I have created a ListView type control, using UserControls for the parent control and the ListViewItems. Most the of the control is written and works fine, right up to the point where I tried to replicate the 'Control.SelectedItems(0).Index' property and the 'SelectedIndexChanged' event.
Each child object knows its index value, and could pass this value via the SelectedIndexChanged event (assuming this is how it works in a normal ListView control -- user clicks on an item, and that item fires an event updating the selected index value in the parent object).
How does the child object raise an event in the parent object? I have a feeling this could be done with Delegates, but I'm still learning about their usage.

I created the webLinesArray.ToArray() array as such

Am I missing an additional cast or something ?
