I want to find the size and position of a window from another application. I already have the window handle, how can i do this?
View 2 RepliesI have looking for a tutorial or class that demonstrates more than a trivial example of saving a windows position on closing. The ones I have found don't seem to work on all systems because of:
1. Multiple monitors. (and resolution between those monitors)
2. Toolbar size and position (toolbar is only on the primary monitor, well sometimes)
3. Sometimes the programs dont open on the right monitor they were closed on.
Is there an extensive class or tutorial on all the stuff a programmer needs to get right to have a window size and position persisted between executions?
Is it any way to make my program start in the lower right of the users screen? Above the clock you know.
View 4 RepliesHow can I tell what the size of my program is and how much disk space is needed to install. When I publish the program and install it on another machine it will show up in the control panel but does not show what size the program is?Also when I publish updates with it says something like installing 10mb. Is this an additional 10 mb everytime, I guess not, but can someone explain what it all means?
View 10 RepliesI tried this for my forms, but because I am setting the position with a re-size function and anchors as well, it does not seem to work quite right.
I end up with grey lines (edge of a control I think), and some of my text boxes loose their position. What do you recommend? [URL]
I am trying to reposition and resize an application I have launched. The hwnd is extracted from the process that is returned from the application start. The call to the Windows API MoveWindow() call moves the window to the top of my screen and collapses it to the height of the title bar.
The x position appears to be correct and the width appears to be correct, but the y position and the height are not correct. I may have the wrong signature (but I don't think so) or there is something I don't understand about the call.[code...]
after i run the program, the form pop up showing no problem.however, when i click on the maximize button on the top right of the form, the form enlarge and fill the screen. but the components will not move accordingly.

Is there more elegant syntax for reading/parsing Size and Point objects in an Xml document?
Source Xml Nodes:
<objSize>{Width=64, Height=64}</objSize>
<Location_X>20</Location_X>
<Location_Y>20</Location_Y>
[Code].....
I have control over both the source nodes and the parsing code... So I am just being too lazy with my XmlNode creation? Regardless is there any benefit to using XmlConvert v.s. using integer.parse (or .tryparse)?
I set the form's size with Me.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(500, 500). I display the mouse cursor's position when the event Form1_MouseMove fires. At the bottom right corner of the form, I read the coordinates 483,460 (instead of 500,500) I precise that the upper left corner has the coordinates 0,0.I also notice that the size of a control differs from the form's size. for example if Picbox1.height = Form1.height, then the Picbox will be bigger than the displayed Form1.
View 4 RepliesI have a DataGridView in one of my form which at a certain point I resize an change it's position. I would like to be able to restore it to the designer's default position at runtime. I know I could save it before changing and then restoring it later, but I feel like there surely is a way in .NET to just restore a control position to it's default.

View 3 RepliesUsing VB 2010 Express
My program writes text to a multiline textbox. After the input is finished, the cursor is at the end of the text. I want the program to position the cursor at the start of the text so that I can see it.
MSDN suggests:-
tbPositionCursor.Select(0, 0)
I believe the cursor is now repositioned, but I cannot see the start of the text. How do I scroll back automatically, refresh or whatever so that I can see the start of the text?

View 1 RepliesI'm working on a project that incorporates an Arduino Duemilanove board and a program that a wrote in VB 2008. Basically, when the Arduino receives a symbol from COM3, it sets a Pin on the board, high or low. I'm using two Pins, one is going to be for a laser, the other a relay. The relay is going to close a circuit, and act as the button on the Nerf Vulcan. That's right, I'm creating a Nerf sentry gun.It's going to be fully controlled from my computer. I have all of the code done for the servo, and all of that, both on the Arduino and in VB.
The Arduino sends the angle of the Servo that will control the right and left movement of the gun through COM3, every time it changes. I want my program to display that position in a textbox, as my program needs that value in order to properly function. Basically, I need the code to read from the serial port, and display what it receives in a textbox, textbox3.

I'm trying to set a new cursor position but I get this error:
A call to PInvoke function 'mon! WindowsApplication1.Form1::SetCursorPos' has unbalanced the stack. This is likely because the managed PInvoke signature does not match the unmanaged target signature. Check that the calling convention and parameters of the PInvoke signature match the target unmanaged signature.
Here is the code:
Declare Function SetCursorPos Lib "user32" _

View 1 RepliesI have a form in Visual Basic, and the size of the form is: 211, 49. And when the form Loads, It loads to the top / left of the screen. the form has no border. How can I get my form to load top / right of the screen.
I Have tried changing the properties, Start Position to Manual, And then changed Location 0,0. but what if someone has a different size screen than mine.
I know how to get the cursor position but how do I add a character to that position. Like I want to have a button that adds a specific character at the position of the cursor.
I don't see any richtextbox properties that allow me to add anything at the cursor position.

Me.ActiveControl.SelectedText = Chr(176)
