View 4 RepliesI am using the MouseClick event toc change the image of a picturebox when it is clicked:
Private Sub PictureBox7_MouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles PictureBox7.MouseClick
PictureBox7.Image = Image.FromFile("C:Documents and SettingsjacobscDesktoplogogoclick.png")
End Sub
The problem i have is that this tool will be used on different users computers and not just my own and at the moment when it is used on another computer it gives an error that it can'f find the image.
This obvioulsy happens as it is looking for my desktop, how can i change so that the image can be saved within the tool and therefore will work on other computers?
Alright, I have form, with multiple buttons on it. I want it so when I Click on the Button that Says START it will Change to STOP but at the same time Enable all the Disabled Buttons on the Form. ATM I have this.
Dim ctl As Control = Me.GetNextControl(tbStudio, True)
Do Until ctl Is Nothing
If TypeOf ctl Is Button Then
If ctl.Enabled Then
[Code]...
Works Good, but when I add the btnStartStop.Text = "Start" or .Text = "Stop" to the If Statements, it's always getting stuck on "Stop" I also tried a Boolean statement but came out all funky, EVERY OTHER button was Disabled while the OTHERS were Enabled. I feel like a n00b, I've been programing for a bit now, but just got back into it,

View 2 RepliesFor some reason, I can't change the checkbox from True to False when I click the checkbox in my DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn called "Select". I setup my DataGridView (dgvWBFOrphans) with 5 TextBox columns that are Read-Only and 1 CheckBox column that is not Read-Only. I use a stored procedure and data reader to load the DataTable which is used as the DataSource for dgvWBFOrphans. I want all the checkboxes to default to True and allow the users to uncheck certain rows in the "Select" column.

I've got a datetimepicker control on a vb .net 2008 form. I have set it to show a custom format of "dd/MM/yyyy". The problem is this: - when i click on the arrow button, a small calendar is shown in which i should be able to select a date. The only way i can do that is by using the arrow keys and pressing Enter. Clicking on any date value inside this calendar doesn't do anything.How can i make the value of the datetimepicker change to what i have clicked inside the dropdown calendar?

View 2 Replieshow you can get image transparency to come through in Visual Basic? Because if you try to put an image with some transparent sections on it on a form, the transparency turns into the form background colour (Though you could change the background image to whatever you want displayed under the image, but that's not the point) and basically I can't find any way to do irregular transparencies.
Alright, that's not very simple. I'll try to give an example:
You have an animated GIF of...say...fireworks. And it has a transparent background. Now say you have a few labels with text in them. When you draw the picturebox over the labels, the text in the labels is covered by the background of the fireworks, even though it's transparent. You can't see the labels. You want to see the fireworks exploding over the text
I can't see any way of getting around this, other than doing it in another program and putting the text and fireworks into one PictureBox. but it would be so convenient if it could work in Visual Basic, because you can control the text the in the labels and keep the animated "fireworks" exploding at the same time without using multiple animated images.
Is it possible to have transparency on a form but not on a button on the form?I know transparency can be controlled for the form in properties (VB 2005), but how can we isolate the button from being affected?
View 2 RepliesRight now I currently have an array of pictureboxes, and over them I want another large picturebox that has a sort of transparent fog effect. I created a png with this and made sure to save the alpha transparency, however when the picturebox shows up, you are not able to see underneath it. Is there anyway to fix this without using the GDI instead of pictureboxes? Because of the way the program is set up, I think GDI would be too slow for my purposes.
View 1 RepliesThe 1st problem: I set the transparency key to a color and then set the forms background color to that color, and then set the background image to an image with rounded edges to give my form rounded edged. But the corners look VERY jagged.
The 2nd problem: Is there a way to make a form appear in the lower right corner above the task bar? Kind of like Avasts virus database definition update window.
Ive been on the same thing for the past seven hours now. Im trying to ether get the MDI child form title-bar-less in maximized mode, or now, get the transparency working to where the MDI child has transparency. ) This is for a home automation system im working on. major alpha stages. Hardware control works ;) but this stupid GUI is kicking my butt. So three options i have. In maximize mode on the MDI child remove the title bar, or remove the parents scroll bar so i can make the MDI child the size of the parents MDI window, or make the MDI child transparency work. Im posting a screen shot to show you what im talking about.

View 4 RepliesI have a 8 bit Gif, that is transparent, with controls sitting on top of it, all in a custom control. This part works fine. However, This control is a menu ring (appears around another control with a few options). The transparent part is over a Picbox, that is in a panel. The transparent part of the image seems to skip the picbox and go right through to the panel. I set the panel to a back color of RED. The custom control when its placed instead of showing the image in the pic box that it is on top of, it shows the RED panel I have made sure all my Z orders are right.
