how to duplicate the 9-slice functionality of Flex/Flash in WPF and VB.Net. I have used 9-slice scaling many times in Flex and it would be a great asset in WPF. I would like to be able to have an image as my background of a Canvas and have it stretch without ruining the rounded corners.
View 2 Repliessince i do not have any image editing software, i am going to use vb.net to slice an image horizontally.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to add flex grid control in my vb.net program. I have found out that it is possible
but when i have searched in project->add referance -> com i couldnt find the flex grid
may be i am looking at the wrong name of the control i have tried MS Flex Grid or flex grid
I created a project in flex builder with application server type set to none. When I debug, I can access the web service from my local machine thats on a site [URL] When I upload the flex app to [URL] it works great.But, when I upload it to myapp.mysite.com/myapp.html it wont access the web service.
P.S. The WS was created with VB.net, and when I create a flex project with application server type set to .net, it wont access the WS from my local machine this is my crossdomain.xml file
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.adobe.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">

My guess is that it isn't a flex problem, but a .net security feature... wich I don't know how to configure. .NET won't allow apps to use it outside of its own domain.
I am going to create a gaming platform primarily with flash,flex and was also looking to create a windows client that could communicate with my server using these protocols. Could someone point me in the right direction on any possible .net libraries available that could handle the communications between client and server?

View 7 RepliesHi, I'm just beginning to teach myself how to do OOP in VB 2008 Express. I have a quick question after seeing a video online.Is a VB variable the equivalent of an 'instance' in Flash and a VB object like a 'symbol' in Flash? Is this what it means by a variable being a reference or pointer to an object and not the object itself?

need to have a summation field in each row of a grid in visual basic. Each row needs to calculate the remaining quantity of its row and all other rows beneath it. Thus the subtotal field in the 1st row would equal the sum of the shown quantity field for the entire grid.The next row would include its value and all those beneath it. Its subtotal value would be less than the subtotal of the row above it (by the quantity value of the 1st row). My code for the grid is very simple I just can't figure out how to add this iteration.

View 2 RepliesI'm a complete noob to VB.NET and have just made a tic-tac-to game and want to make it multiplayer over the the internet with direct conection via IP address (like CFS3 and the like).
The only thing is I have never used the this before and have searched loads on google and on this site, I just can't seem to find anything that I can understand so if anyone can help me out with where to start getting two machines talking, I have used the WINSOCK tool in VB6 before but didn't really understand it.
I have used sockets in VB6 before but cannot get the same functionality to work in VB.net. I have two machines running VB code and I want the applications to exchange information via a network connection. Using VB6 and socks it was easy but I just can't figure it out in VB.net.The data exchanged are string messages; there is no interaction between users it's just the applications exchanging info. The one machine will always be the server and is running a windows forms application which I'm writing in vb.net (it's actually a satellite antenna controller) the other machine is connected by an Ethernet connection (private network these are the only two devices) and is also running a windows forms application which I'm writing in VB.net (this is the remote controller for the satellite antenna controller) Can someone give me a pointer to some simple code that opens a connection and I can read and write between the two (both ways) using string messages. I' am assuming sockets are the right way to go? Everything I research keeps coming up with console applications

adding certain functionality to an existing ASP.NET application running on IIS 6.0 programmed in VB.NET.To aid in future development the client wants the additional functionality to be as future proof as possible. Ideally i have said that I would like to push for a solution using ASP.NET MVC3, running off IIs 7.5 and .NET 4, written in C#. This solution would act as a seemless addition to the current web-portal appearing probably just as an extra tabbed page.
But they will be completely seperate web-apps. Which is crucial.The main problems i can forsee are firstly sharing session particulars between the asp.net web app and the new application. Particularly with regard to maintaining session state (and not having IIS timing out on one of the apps). Also, conjoining the two "apps" appears problematic in my head, although this may be far simpler than i fear.
1) Embed the new fuctionality into the existing codebase (not a great option). This would mean losing any potential future upgrade-ability and also means not following better OO conventions by utilising the MVC framework.
2) Using an iFrame to link to the razor pages of a seperate MVC3 app (the one im favouring currently). Allows uses of all new technologies, however downside is sharing session data. Either through iFrame "attributes" through persisting a session state to a db? (slow?) or even some kind of web service interaction between the applications to push/pull user/session data?

View 1 RepliesI have a treeview which has lots of files listed in it that it has downloaded so far in it & I want to make it faster/easier to save files in my program rather than clicking save 100 times, is there a way I can make it so they can physically drag the item out of the app to a desktop/folder & have it save there? I am willing to do whatever coding it takes but just need a basis for how it maybe done.
Like I have a lot of files listed under multiple treeview items too though so can I also make it so when I drag a certain item it will make a new directory with all the files under it included? For this all I need is the basis of where they dragged to & what item they dragged then I can make the code to actually put everything where it's meant to be but I don't know if this is possible. I don't want to keep using the slower method of clicking save on each individual file or even the whole tree of items, while pretty quick I just want to do drag+drop instead. I will keep both methods in the program but have drag+drop in it I think could be really useful, I don't need to drag files into the treeview though, just drag items from treeview out to make it save the file(s).
I have several asp.net website projects for various sites.Currently I want to add REST API's to these projects so I can start developing mobile apps (using HTML5/JavaScript/CSS3 and PhoneGap) that make use of these webservices.
Since WCF is far more powerful than regular asp.net webservices (among others with control over the service and authentication/authorization), I'd love to add these to my existing website project.
I did a Google search but cant find anywhere a step-by-step tutorial how this can be done. And also if there's any functionality I'd possibly loose when adding WCF functionality.I was also thinking of creating a new project specifically for WCF, but think I'd rather add it to an existing website project.
I am looking at adding in some bluetooth functionality to my vb.net application. I require it to couple with a specified mobile phone (that is found by the app) than to be able to retrieve contact information, phone calls (made and recevied) and images from the phone.
Can anyone tell me what my best approach will be for this? If there are any good third party solutions that will do it? If it is actually doable? Im thinking that it should because im basically mimic'ing what all the new fancy cars do with their bluetooth phone compatibility.

I need to extend the functionality of the ToolTip control...Problem: I need to show some introductionary instructions to my users the first time they see a new form based feature in my app. Something along the lines of: '...Welcome to the blah, blah, blah feature. To do this, click that, mouse here, press that so on and so forth...'
Then I want a 'Don't show this again' check box somewhere near the bottom so the 'welcome screen' can be supressed. Currently I'm thinking of loading an app wide form (Public Dim frmMyToolTip as frmToolTip) and using it's .TopMost property to ensure that when I show it, it appears over my modal form (I can Hide/Show at will.) Also without a caption or border, my users can't move it.
As it will be displayed on top of a Modal form, I need a Background worker component to run a timer which will hide the form after a set period. I can store the state of the CheckBox to stop the form from showing next time if user does not require it.
