Windows Forms Timer Control
Jun 30, 2011Whatever project I'm making, I always encounter a problem with a Windows Forms Timer control, I guess I just make a little mistake somewhere... So I thought I'd post it here and hopefully someone here can explain what I'm doing wrong.

Forms :: Timer Control To Flash Message
Feb 27, 2009I have added a timer control to a VB.NET windows form to have a message flash on and off between ticks. When I load the form I have the timer disabled. When i click on a command button, I set Timer1.Enabled to True so that the timer can begin flashing the message. The timer does not flash the message. I added a MsgBox function after where I turn on the timer. When the message box is displayed and I click OK, then the timer starts flashing the message. I turn the timer off later and that seems to work fine. I have tried the Timer1.Start() method but that does not work. Any thoughts on why the message box allows it to run but the form does not?

View 4 RepliesVS 2008 : Get 2 Forms To Close At Different Times Using A Timer On Each Of The 2 Forms?
Apr 21, 2010i have a problem with trying to get 2 forms to close at different times using a timer on each of the 2 forms.
This is my form layout:
Quote:
frmMain
Frm1
Frm2
Frm1 and Frm2 are identical to each other. FrmMain has 2 buttons on it. One button to call Frm1 and the other to call Frm2.Frm1 and Frm2 each has a timer. It counts down to 0 and then does a .close(). However, if i pause between clicking the second button they both seem to always disappears at the same time.I would do something like this...
Click on the first button (showing the Frm1 form)
wait about 10 secs...Click on the second button (showing the Frm2 form)they both are shown on screen...hen they both disappear at the same time.... which shouldn't happen since i clicked the Frm2 box 10 seconds AFTER Frm1... So Frm1 should hide before Frm2 does...but it does not.

Update Control On Win Form: Windows-based-timer Vs Server-based-timer

Forms :: Using DateTimePicker With Timer?
Feb 16, 2011i'm utilising a couple of controls to kick off a process within my form - in short i have a DateTimePicker, Timer, CheckBox. The user enters the time they wish the process to run in the DateTimePicker (which has its format set to Time), ticks the CheckBox, which kicks off the Timer with an interval of 900ms. The Timer_Tick event checks if the DateTimePicker.Value is now and if so, does something. My problem is that either the DateTimePicker.Value never equals now or that the Timer_Tick event is never actually called.
I welcome any input into better ways of accomplishing this, i am conscious that polling for the time every second is a drain of resources but the only alternative i can see is a service which is overkill

Forms - Timer Program Shutdown
Mar 9, 2009Alright im trying to make it where in Visual Basic 2008 you click on a box ether 10, 20, or 30. Then that tells a timer that the program needs to turn off in 10, 20, or 30 minutes. What I basically want it to do is, whenever the set amount time is when it goes off it shows form1(login form). I have prepared a picture can anyone supply me with some information on how to do this?
View 14 RepliesForms :: Controlling A Timer From Outside Class?
Dec 22, 2010We've been asked to make a program based on a spec where we enter some details and it will then output a graph.Part of the assignment asks us to set up a timer so that the bar chart will display each bar seperately with a time delay between each one.However the timer is assigned to a form (Form2) while the draw commands are within another class called Expenditure.
While the specification doesn't specifically say we should stop the timer from within the class it is implied.Now I have tried Form2.Timer1.Stop() and Form2.Timer1.Enabled = False within the class without any luck.I'm wondering is it possible for the Expenditure class to stop the timer or does it need to be done within Form2?

View 1 RepliesForms - Timer Code - Add Time To The Counter
Feb 19, 2009I'm currently writing a countdown timer on vb 2005, with the following characteristics: When I press a button and the timer is running, it adds time to the counter, for example, if the time is 2:30 and I press a button, and the period to add is 1:10, the new time would be 4:40. The window is always on top of every other window, and is active even though it doesn't have focus. When the time's up and i press a key, in this case Esc, the application closes, otherwise, it just continues. [Code]
View 5 RepliesUsing A Regular System.Windows.Forms.Timer?
Jan 11, 2010Hello,
I'm writing a windows service and initially tried just using a regular System.Windows.Forms.Timer, but never saw it's tick event get fired in my debugger. From doing some research, it appeared that I needed to use the S ystem.Timers.Timer control instead. In order to make debugging easy, I set my timer interval to a really short value 1000 ms. I'm seeing some rather strange behavior, though. It appears that my timer control is creating multiple threads within my application, or is this just a bug in my debugger? I have an event handler for the Elapsed event like so:

Feb 4, 2012I have a System.Windows.Forms.Timer named "DialogBoxTimer" set up on a form. When the form loads, it has a command to stop the timer. I have a routine [SPDataRecd(...)] that handles SerialPort1.DataReceived from a serial port (modem). When it is activated by a modem event, I want it to start the timer [DialogBoxTimer.Start()], but it doesn't work.If the timer is running, SPDataRecd can *stop* the timer [DialogBoxTimer.Stop()], but it can't start a stopped timer.
View 6 RepliesGetting The Rapid Timer Control?
Jul 30, 2009I have a timer that I've established that I have set to run at a 20ms interval.Within that timer code, I have some code that is performing a visual display, moving a graphic incrementally.This all works great on a nice fast machine, when I can be sure that the "work" is actually being completed before it's "called" again by the timer.It does not behave well on a slower machine, when I suspect that the timer is being called again before the work is being done from the previous call(s).
I've tried establishing a global boolean variable called "Timer1Active". I set this variable when I enter the code to TRUE, and to FALSE as I exit the procedure. I also check, using an IF statement if it is true at the beginning of the procedure, skipping all of the procedure if it's not yet been set back to false.This approach seems to stop the visual portion from happening altogether. I think, anyway. That or it's now way faster and I can't see it at all (but I doubt it).

Can't Set The Name Property For The Timer Control At Runtime?
Feb 3, 2010I am relatively new to programming and have managed so far with google and a lot of patience! I am having a problem naming timer contols at runtime. This is what I am trying to achieve.
1. I connect to my dataset and to my first record
2. I create a loop for the recordset
3. I create various objects on a form and name them using the info in the dataset
I also need to create timers and name them using the first field of my dataset. It needs to be dynamic as its database driven. There could be as many as 100 timers at any one point.
