Get A Resizeable Window That Contains 2 Lines That Are Both Resizeable And Rotateable?
Jul 10, 2009
For this application, I need a resizeable window that contains 2 (two) lines (In a cross hairs design) that are both resizeable and rotateable. I need them both to rotate at the click of a button (The button is on a BubbleBar, but the code is the same for a normal button control). I also need them to resize with the window (It has to be accurate). I have tried using LineShapes from the Visual Basic PowerPack, however the amount of trigonometry involved with this solution was too much for me to implement and understand.I also tried using a WPF ElementHost to accomplish the same thing, without luck. I tried using the RenderTransform property of the WPF Lines to rotate them, but I could not apply both that and resizing to these lines.
I am currently building a web browser in which i want to have 4 browser in it running at once.The main idea is there are 4 browsers in a formation where you can adjust each one to the correct size a bit like in this image (i hope its a permanent link)[URL]..if this would be thery hard to do then i would have to do somthing like in fig 3 if its simpler.
For c = 0 To grd.Columns.Count - 1 grd.Columns(c).Resizable = DataGridViewTriState.True Next c
That allows all the columns in my DataGridView to be resizable EXCEPT the last column. Why?I DO get the little resizable-mouse-pointer... but you can only make the column SMALLER, never WIDER.(Same problem if I try to set all the columns to Resizable, using the VB.net IDE)Shouldn't I be able to resize ANY column I want, bigger or smaller?
I am running a program that needs to allow the user to be able to change the size of a text box at run time. I know I need to use the MouseDown, mouseMove, and mouseUp events. I just need some help with the coding to send the information.
how to count the lines in textbox1.text (with multiplelines). I don't need to count each character. I only need to count each line from top to bottom in textbox1.text (multiplelines) and I will use Label1 to display the numbers.
I have written a simple script to get a bunch of lines from a text file (they will be filenames eventually) which are split by new lines and puts each one into an array..
Dim ary() As String Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists("C:MenuFiles.txt") Then
[code]....
The only thing I can do for now is either use the substring function to remove the first character from all array values after 0 but I don't like that because it's messy and what if the split "works" as I want it to one one of the lines and knocks of the first character when I don't want it to.
below are a few lines from my text file(10929 lines)I need to read each line and insert into MS Access. each line is a column in my table and the record changes on every 8th line or to be more specific(on every 8th line you will see a number [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.....] this is where another record starts,
I am trying to make a script to spit command lines to a bat file to compress a bunch of files singly and then delete the original ones. I am sure that is easy to most of you, but I living a ____ trying to do this. A have a file list like this one belo, which was created with a command -- Dir /b /s /a-D N: > filelist.txt
I am trying to find the handle of the child window for the Yes button in the User Account Control window so i can click it. This window has a structure with a few child windows with the same name.
Dim hwnd As IntPtr = FindWindow(Nothing, "User Account Control") Dim hwnd2 As IntPtr = FindWindowEx(hwnd, 0, "DirectUIHWND", vbNullString) Dim hwnd3 As IntPtr = FindWindowEx(hwnd2, 0, "CtrlNotifySink", vbNullString) Dim hwnd4 As IntPtr = FindWindowEx(hwnd3, 0, "Button", "&Yes")
There are multiple CtrNotifySink with its own Button child window or other child windows. How do i search thru the different CtrNotifySink window to find the one that contain the Yes button so i can send a click to it? I do need to find it before i can send a click, right? because i try just sending it to the main window with sendmessage and nothing happen.I even try sending it directly to the handle found by spy++ of the yes button with bm click but nothing happen?

Excuse me for posting this, but I have searched both Google along with this forum before asking this question, maybe I'm not using the right keywords but I apologize if it's easy to find.I would like to know how one could close a third-party window (application) if a specified string was found in the window title.
I have a VB.NET application that uses Managed DirectSound to capture audio.Everything works just fine until (a) the application is minimized or (b) the application is completey obstructed (covered) by another window.
The thing is that the CaptureBufferDescription structure does not include a GlobalFocus property so I don't know what to do to let my application continue capturing when the main window is hidden.
Here's the basic initialization code I'm using:
' Create a buffer description object bufCapDesc = New CaptureBufferDescription() With bufCapDesc
border of that said window so the only place the mouse can't click the titlebar and the minimize,restore, and maximize button. The height of the titlebar depends on what OS the user is using so I'm having trouble because I can't give a definite value for this. How do I detect the height. and also for border i'm not sure if the borders have different widths with different operating systems. I'm using windows XP on classic mode, when I change to the themed mode, the height of the title bar changes so it won't work.
I am looking to close the application when I click a cancel button in a login page, but I don't want to do it in such a way that Window 2 closes itself, but by sending some notification to Main Window, and Main Window closes the application. Here's the code that I have so far:
(in loginPage)
Public Event CloseApp As EventHandler Private Sub CancelButton_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs) Handles CancelButton.Click

If you have ever noticed in the Task Manager, when you right-click on the running task, you have many options which include 'Minimize' and 'Maximize'. Is there anyway to do achieve this in vb?
If I show a new non-modal child window using .Show(frmParent), and then the parent window is minimized, the child will get minimized automatically as well.
I am creating a window that is a generic keypad for editing numerical values on a touchscreen. I would like to press an 'edit' button to create a copy of the keypad window/bring up a reusable version of the same window (I don't care), but pass in parameters: the old value I'm manipulating, and a title to be displayed above the number pad. I would like the user to be able to type in the new value, then press the 'done' key to submit this value and have it sent back to the main application window into my custom control that contains a text box.(I have the number pad's layout sorted out already; I'm already using a variation on it to set a global password 'access level'. It's getting the information in and out that has me scratching my head.) [code]

I have application with 2 forms (Form1, Form2), when i click in a button in form1, form2 open.when form2 opened & I switch to other window and try to switch back to my application (By clicking in its icon in taskbar), it switch to form1.I need when form2 open & click in taskbar, it switch to form2 & also when form2 open I can't edit or type anything in form1.Exactly the same as the below scenario in windows:when I open any new window from "Windows Properties" (Right click my computer), and switch back to windows properties, it will switch to the new window not to the main Windows properties window
I am trying to pop up a window on clicking of the link within datagrid and passing textbox id with it. And on closing the popup window i want to set the value of the textbox control within datagrid need to be updated.
Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click Dim strScript As String strScript = "<script>window.opener.document.forms(0)." + control.Value + ".value = '" strScript += "35"
[code]....
It works fine when the link is not within datagrid.
I have the following function that should make the window always on top of other applications.
Private Declare Function SetWindowPos Lib "user32" _ (ByVal handle As Long, ByVal hWndInsertAfter As Long, ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long, _ ByVal cx As Long, ByVal cy As Long, ByVal wFlags As Long) As Long
[Code]....
The problem is that it reduces the window size so that you can only see the title bar and min/max/close buttons. Also, even that does not stay on top of other windows.
I have used this function before on a windows 7 machine (instead of xp which this one is on) and it worked fine.
I have a vb.net application that, when a short cut is pressed, a window pops up. I also would like to make it completely invisible, unless the short cut is pressed. In the default class that houses my code for noticing the short cut and coordinating the events of the short cut, I have placed the following code:
Me.ShowInTaskbar = False
I have isolated this code as the issue. The issue is that my application does not work when it is not shown in the taskbar. This is only the default form - for the pop up window I have a separate class. How can I create a workaround for hiding the window in the taskbar and hiding it in general?
Btw, this is my hotkey code:
Public Const MOD_ALT As Integer = &H1 Public Const WM_HOTKEY As Integer = &H312 Public Declare Function RegisterHotKey Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As IntPtr, ByVal id As Integer, ByVal fsModifiers As Integer, ByVal vk As Integer) As Integer
