is it possible to draw an accurate circle in vb.net with mouseDown and mouseUp boundaries? I only manage to create circle-settings with rectangular boundaries using DrawEllipse. I've tried to work around it using pythagoras but it just doesn't work and I'm pretty sure I've got my maths right...
Is it possible to define a circle with DrawEllipse(pencil,x1,y1,width,length) ?
I'm working with a project that is WPF and VB.net. I want to visually simulate "dragging" an object (though I do not want to use standard drag and drop for reason of purpose).Basically, I have a label object that, on its MouseDown event, I want it to follow the mouse cursor inside a 640x480 solid-size grid (but not outside of it!). Mind you, this grid is centered inside a full-screen window. Again, the object should not follow the mouse outside of the grid (I'm guessing a "ClipToBounds = True" here)Then, on the label's MouseUp event, I want it to either stay in its current position or return to its original position, as determined by the value of a boolean variable set by another object's MouseEnter property.Note, if it would be easier to work with, I can change the grid to a canvas in a cinch. I'm guessing that would be desirable.
How do I make the object (label) follow the mouse cursor inside the grid/canvas, but not outside of it? This needs to happen on the MouseDown event of the label.How do I make the object "stick" in its current position? (From this, I can probably figure out how to make it return to its original position on my own.

How can I program a quarter portion of a circle, with points A and B ??
How can I code the red line on the image?
User launches the application, enters width of circle, then enters width and height of rectangle and presses the button. Then app draws the circle with rectangle inside of it (if it fits). App should output the coordinates x1;y1 , x1;y2 , x2;y1 , x2;y2 (corners of rectangle) somewhere on form and would be great if it could post those coordinates on x and y axes (optional).

View 7 RepliesI need to write some code which draws a predefined circular path (say 48pix diameter) and use a timer to delay it to show it being drawn. I need to use GDI+ to do this. My guess is on the Timer.Tick, I would set some Point value for the next point on the path, and then call Invalidate to raise the Paint event.

View 3 RepliesI am trying to draw a circle on the visual basic console. I have been told that the console is not made for this but i have to use it.
What I want to do is a circle with:
Centre (40,20)
Radius = 10
I know from basic trig that the following will give me the points on the circle:
x= (10 x CosA)+40
y=(10 x SinA) +20
(A) being an angle in radians.
Then combine x & y that will give me a point on the circle.
I want to use the '' Sets the cursor position
Console.SetCursorPosition(x, y)
Console.Write(".") "
To print a point(.) on the given position from the formulas above.
Now heres my question how do I get Visual Basic too calculate:
x= (10 x CosA)+40
y=(10 x SinA) +20
360 times i.e 0rad-2Pirad and then pass the x & y [(x,y)] point to my cursor position code so that a '.' is printed at that position. I.e I will end up with a circle made out of 360 '.'
I would asume that a loop is used and also an array to store the 360 Pi values. I'm finding it extremely hard to even get Vb to calculate the Cos of an angle.
Question: I need to draw pictures as below in C#/VB.NET Draw ishihara-transformations (circles in circle without intersection)?
Note that my problem is NOT drawing circles in C#.
My problems is drawing them without much whitespace and without intersection.
My thought would be using "Orbits" and then draw the circles with center on the "orbit" lines. (with some orbit lines for bigger and some only for smaller circles)
how to view and populate a listview with a text file. Now I come seeking wisdom on how do create an effect based upon the location where a mousedown event occured.
Here is my example. (I like to give simple examples because it helps me learn rather than be given the answer and learn nothing).
I am working in vb.net, in a windows form. I have a map of Western Europe called picturebox1.
I want another form to pop up when a user clicks on a section of picturebox1. For example: I want a "Germany" form to pop up when the user clicks on Germany. And such for if France, Spain, Italy, Austria, England, Scotland, etc...based on the location of the mousedown event.
Historically, when working with a picturebox with sections that were rectangle, I would do little screenshots and overlay them over the picturebox and use that as a cheat.
The challenge here is that the countries are polygons and now I need to learn this for real. I am looking for a little direction on where to go to learn about a mousedown event that causes an effect based upon the location of the mousedown event.
This can be a challenge because each country is of different x, y location coordinates so I image I need to create an elaborate if or case statement to capture and evalute. However, I don't know how to acquire the coordinates of a mousedown.
I have developed a program which continuously draws a circle using a timer. Now every time the circle gets displays it flickers and which is because i have used me.refresh. Is there any other way to avoid this flickering.

I'm using the MouseDown to create objects, they are used within MouseMove and they are killed within MouseUp Event. Now I want to use the Doubleclick Event to build in some shortcuts. My problem is that the MouseUp routine is called sometimes before the DoubleClick routine. I do need the MouseDown Event before starting the DoubleClick code, however sometimes the MouseUp event is triggered which is killing the needed objects.
Is it possible to get the DoubleClick-event routine always without the MouseUp routine?

I am making a user control named MultiSelect, which consists of a textbox. In this textbox I put substring. I want the user control to show a treeview outside the MultiSelect boundaries where items matching the substring will be shown.
For me its no problem to make a treeview inside the MultiSelect boundaries but I need to save space on the original form where a MultiSelect control will appear, so I need to do it like the treeview will appear and after I choose items, it will disappear

View 8 RepliesI'm using KeyDown to get the picturebox to move around, but I don't know how to keep the boat within the boundaries of the form. So if it hits the side of the form, I want it to just stop.
What control/procedure should I use to do this?
[url] How is this done? Is it a control of that form? Or is it a splashscreen or something like that?. I've tried by doing that with another form instead, but the first form will get unfocused, and i want the main form to be always focused.

View 2 RepliesSo I've created a series of objects that interact with a piece of hardware over a serial port. There is a thread running monitoring the serial port, and if the state of the hardware changes it updates properties in my objects. I'm using observable collections, and INotifyPropertyChanged.
I've built a UI in WPF and it works great, showing me real time updating when the hardware changes and allows me to send changes to the hardware as well by changing these properties using bindings.
What I'm hoping is that I can run the UI on a different machine than what the hardware is hooked up to without a lot of wiring up of events. Possibly even allow multiple UI's to connect to the same service and interact with this hardware.
So far I understand I'm going to need to create a WCF service. I'm trying to figure out if I'll be able to pass a reference to an object created at the service to the client leaving events intact. So that the UI will really just be bound to a remote object.
Am I moving the right direction with WCF?
Also I see tons of examples for WCF in C#, are there any good practical use examples in VB that might be along the lines of what I'm trying to do?
I sometime use a 'catch-all' procedure for an event for all textboxes, such as:[code]Is there a way of finding out which textbox I am in?
