Controls Not Return All The Child Controls For The Form?

Apr 15, 2010

I have a slight problem With an enumaration of child controls on a form. The following code will not get but about have the controls that are on the form. The controls show that the count is correct but when it goes through the loop it skips over some of the controls. If you run it through the enumeration two or three times it will get all the controls a few at a time. The solution uses two forms, one that has the controls and the other that labels are made and displayed on. The Tx is just a index to add a number to the label.name and rename the label. So each label is identified seperately. This works for all the the controls that are seen in the for each loop.

Adding Controls At Runtime To Child Form?

Jan 27, 2010

Updating a VB6 prog in VS2005 on Windows 7. The prog has an MDI + child forms and there are a number of content types, with varying numbers of controls being set up and positioned from setup files.On forms which are not child forms I can easily add controls at run time like this:

Dim lab As New Label
With lab
.Left = 0 : .Top = 0
.Width = 800 : .Height = 800

[code]....

This doesn't work on a child form, no label is visible. Can't see any obvious problem in quickwatch.

Making Controls Resize With The MDI Child Form

Jan 23, 2011

Does anyone know how to make the controls on an MDI Child form resize along with the form itself? I inherited a project from another developer and I was asked specifically to make the form resize. With advice I received on this forum I now have the form resizing as expected. It will minimize, restore and maximize as well as resize with the mouse pointer.

The problem is that when I increase the size of the form all I get is more blank space on the screen. The controls to do change at all. Although I thin this is normal behavior for a Windows form my bosses all seem to think that the controls resize on every other widows for they see. I wondered if anyone had successfully accomplished this. I was already advised to write a FormResize handling subroutine and this unfortunately did not work.

Mdi Child Maximize, Form Tiling And Alignment Of Controls?

Jun 22, 2010

my project is on the verge of completion and a large part of the credit goes to daniweb.now m stuck with a very annoying problm. ive googled the whole day but to no avail.m using visual studion 2005 and access 07.ive clubbed these three problms together cause i thought they might be related somehow...

1) i want the mdi child screen to be maximized. but on the first attempt only the control box goes to the top rite corner. however on the 2nd attempt it gets sorted out.ive tried to set the initial state to maximized but with same result. please help

2) whn the form loads it gives this tiling effect.. like the effect a tube light gives whn it is switced on...which is very annoying.
ive search for the result and some recommended to change the resolution of the user screen which is not acceptable to me.cant i change the resolution of my application depending on the user's resolution.

3) whn the form is maximized i want its user control or contents to change their alignment accordingly...anchor property only changes the size however the ideal thing will be to change the controls position w.r.t the container or form...

VS 2008 - MDI Child - Controls Move Up The Form At Runtime

Jul 29, 2009

I have an MDI application which uses fixed sized forms. I've started to change the forms to sizeable and anchored the controls so they move when the form is resized. If the child form has a menu this jumps onto the parent menu (as it always has done) but all the controls move up the form at runtime and leave a space at the bottom of the child. If I change the form in design mode to cut through the bottom controls i.e. so the form doesn't appear tall enough, it corrects itself at runtime. Is there another workaround as it looks misleading in the designer.

VS 2010 All Child Controls Disappeared?

May 17, 2011

In the project I'm working on, I was editing a class and when I got done, I clicked save all. I moved on to my main form's designer. When it came up, the custom tab control I have on the form was blank. There used to be a ton of controls in it, so I am extremely confused about where everything went.I checked the properties window and it thinks everything is still there:ut when I check the Document Outline window, everything is gone. The tab control is still there, "AVERT Wizard", but all of it's child controls and tab pages are gone.

Adding Controls To Child Control On Custom

Nov 17, 2011

[Code] I have a panel as the base of my custom control and I am adding other panels to it, along with a flow layout panel(myInnerContainer). I know the code above isn't going to work because when I try to add the regular panels to the main control, they will attempt to be added to the flow layout panel myInnerContainer, and cause a circular error. [Code] but intellisense doesn't display anything which leads me in the correct direction for adding only the buttons to the flow layout panel (myInnerContainer).

Cannot Move Child Controls In Tab Control Pages

Feb 24, 2011

I've created a tab control and on one of the pages I added a button, but I cannot move the button around with the mouse!? I can change the buttons position within the tab control page using the property Location and I can size the button using the mouse and the button is NOT locked. I even tried creating a new project with just the tab control and it still does the same thing. I can, tho, move the button using the keyboard arrows!

I'm using VS2010 V10.0.30319.1 RTMREL on WinXP SP3.

Parent-child Relationships Of Controls In 2005 Express

Jan 10, 2009

In VB6, if you put a picturebox on a form and then put a control inside the picturebox, then the control would be a child of the picturebox. Its location would be relative to the picturebox and not the form.If you do the same thing in VB 2005 Express , the control seems to still be a child of the form and not the picturebox (i.e. its location property is relative to the form).Is there any way to make a control or graphic inside a picturebox a child of the picturebox and not the form?
