How to get list of all resolution of client monitor and check with resolution passed by application
View 2 RepliesHow can I get the resolution of the extended monitor?
View 2 RepliesWhat is the best way to handle resolution issues on the monitor when writing a windows app from VB.Net.I developed an app on my laptop, it's widescreen and res is set to 1440 x 900. When I take my app and run it on a machine with an older Analog monitor and the res is 1024 x 768, all of the forms on the right and bottom are cut off.

View 1 RepliesRecently I released a �preview edition� of an app to the www for distribution. One of the comments I received back was about it not fitting on the screen properly.So I just wanted to put it out there and get some feedback on how everyone approaches the subject of trying to make everyone happy.Being that it was a preview edition and not a released version I wasn�t all that concerned about things like auto scaling. The purpose was to demonstrate the concept of the program not provide a fully functioning bug free version of the software.I have started on a �preview edition 2� which includes 5 group boxes (3 left side and 2 right side) and I have that fairly well sorted, sizing and positioning the group boxes using the Form width and Height.I am not really interested in improving that section of the code too much as it works fairly well already. My concern is more around the labels, text boxes, drop down boxes etc. in the groupboxes�
Again I can do a similar thing scaling to the height and width of the groupbox properties to align the contents of the groupboxes.My question is� When you try to use a resolution like 800 x 600 (which appears huge after using ~1600 x 1000) how do you squeeze everything on the page?I was thinking of changing the font size for each resolution group i.e. < 900 Horizontal run this font size, < 1000 Horizontal run this font size etc.Or I could work out the font size based on the resolution and round it� FontSize = rnd (Res / 100, 1) since the lower the resolution the bigger the font is going to look anyway.If I can control the font size and I auto size all the labels and text boxes etc. I think I have a far better chance of getting everything on the screen.
how do I adapt the my application area to the user's monitor resolution?I have created a winForms application on 1280*768 resolution monitor and the application is generally used on smaller laptops (10inches). Now I need to a scrollbar on my entire application so that the spacing remains the same as I have designed. For this, there has to be a scrollbar (Both Horizontal and Vertical) on the application.
View 1 RepliesI want to know how can I make a program what will work in any type of resolution & monitor. For example if I make an application fullscreen it will work. But problem is that text boxes or another things will not work properly. For example if I make a program & make it fullscreen for 1440 * 900 resolution it will work fine when it will get 1440 * 900 resolution. But when it will get different resolution like 1280 * 1024 or something like that it will make my application fullscreen but buttons or another things will not be present there in same place. So what should I do to get rid of this problem? All I want to make a program what will adjust itself everywhere(though you change resolution or monitor like 17 inch or 29 inch whatever it will work & buttons & another thinks will be there in same place).
View 1 RepliesI have to know how to set system resolution of all tools in forms, which i using for my application.
I attached two screen shots. When i work my application with my system, form window and their tools placed correctly with my monitor fit(15 inch monitor).
But when i work my application in 21 inch monitor, all tools re arranged and
not in format. post me the code to set resolution as per system??
This overload resolution failed error that occurs when I try to add the newly created integer array as an item in a generic linked list as per the following?
Imports System.Collections.Generic

1. Is there anyway to make an application look as though it has been set to a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 when the true resolution different?
2. I am developing my app using a widescreen monitor. What dimensions does the form need to be set to so that it looks exactly the same on a normal & widescreen monitor?
I am working on an program and I need it to change the size on the form and the button etc when its ran on a different resolution then it was coded on. Is there anyway to do this easy or do I have to hard code it on two different and change it by like a button etc? I am working with a 1024 X 780 and a 1240 X 1024.
View 8 RepliesI have a very high screen resolution on my laptop: 1400x1050.My colleague tried it out on his laptop (which had lesser resolution), and the application did not fit on his laptop. The buttons were dragging out of the screen space.So, I want my application to automatically resize/adjust based upon the screen resolution.I don't want to use Maximized screen option and don't want to change user's pc settings.Unfortunatly I am not using Table Layout panel.

View 6 RepliesCan we set the windows form resolution according to pc screen resolution and even the control should be adjusted...
eg.
My screen resolution is 1366 X 768
and my form size is 1254, 709....but I want it so set according to the screen and it will be dynamic...
if I transfer my project to some other pc with lower or higher resolution it should be adjusted....
and suppose I have few controls on the form...will that also be adjusted??
I had designed all forms on 1280/800 screen resolution.
i want set all forms resolution like the current screen resolution of the user,or make the form resolution is dynamic with each resolution of screen for

Can I monitor the registry for changes similar to how sysinternals process monitor does it in VB? I have checked many different articles and C# samples but not come any closer to getting an answer, I would like to know if there an easier way (a VB sample perhaps)that you folks can share. Ultimately I'd like to be able monitor other things too like file system, processes etc but wonder most about how the registry can be done in VB...Would using system.management be a start? Or WMI? if so is there a nice VB sample..

How to get screen resolution?
View 2 Replieshow to get resolution of any application?
View 4 RepliesUsually I am a web developer so this is probably a very novice question. I recently made an app in VB2008, but I developed it in a huge reso (1920x1200). The person that will be using it still uses 800x600 reso. Is there any simple way I can resize the entire interface to fit any resolution? I didn't really think about it at all while I was making the program.
View 1 RepliesI have a picturebox with zooming/pan capabilities. I am now starting with the zoom. I did that by:
getting the mousescroll event( up or down)
add height and width to the picturebox
get the pixel coordinates of mouse inside the image.
my problem is that, when i change the size of the picturebox, the pixel coordinates in the picture is not the same with the previous image without zoom. I need the coordinates to be the same even the picture is zoomed.

View 2 RepliesI've been trying to find the answer to keeping an application from allowing "scaling" of controls and forms to the user's settings. I have set the autoscalemode to "none" on one form but it doesn't seem to work. I'm using Visual Studio 2008 Visual Basic. My users are on using either XP or Windows 7. I think we are all using Framework 3.5 but not really sure.
I knew this problem would eventually become an issue but ... Now the problem has become an issue. I have a user that has dual monitors and has the text setting on medium. Now the label controls overlap the input text fields.
