Grey Out/disable Specific Items In The ListBox Control?
May 3, 2012
As far as I know, there is no way to grey out/disable specific items in the ListBox control? I want to make a list of surveys that need to be answered, but grey out/disable those that the user has already answered.Or is there some way to do it with ListBox?
I need to extend a combobox to disable some listitems (i.e splits - "----------"). I reckon some APIs will be involved, and it could get complicated. That'll not put me off though. If anyone with usefull info on the subject could post it,
How do I disable buttons while there are less than 2 items in a listbox? I can't figure out how to do it. I'm a newbie in Visual Basic(programming at all)
I can't seem to figure out how to use databindings to enable/disable a button when a listbox contains 0/1+ items?
Button1.DataBindings.Add("Enabled", ListBox1, "Items.Count") Button1.DataBindings.Add("Enabled", ListBox1.Items, "Count") Result = ArgumentException: Cannot bind to the property or column Count on the DataSource. Parameter name: dataMember
Button1.DataBindings.Add("Enabled", TextBox1, "Text.Length") ' This works?
I am trying to access a specific item in a listbox. For example, I have 5 items in a list box and I need each one on a different textbox, but I cannot find the code necessary to access a individual item in a listbox. I need the third item in a textbox but I cant find the code to access that SPECIFIC item and turn it into text in the texbox.
I am using VB.NET (version 2008). I have two types of items populating in a listbox (checked listbox). For example: lets say one is type "A" and other is "Type B". Their names maybe same so if the user sees those items in listbox then he won;t be able to determine their type until he click on them and checks out its properties. I wanted that I add each item to listbox and colour them so that blue for example means type "A" is there and red means the other. So this way I will be able to know at a glance that how many item of what type is present. I guess it may not be possible to do that in a standard checkedlistbox. I am also using component factory's krypton controls which enhance the gui of an application. But I dunno if I can progress using that.
I'm trying to make a -what i thought would be simple app.My intention was to build program that:1) i'd provide a grayscale image2) the program would count the black pixels the grey pixels the more grey pixels etc. (the hue) and the white3) would make the percentage sum of all pixels, that is: 300.000 black pixels (rgb 0 0 0) etc. given that 0 is the black, 100 the white. e.g a simple grayscale image is 55.2 white
This was my way and i don't think that is useful:
First of a button to convert the image to greyscale:
Dim bm as new Bitmap(source.Width,source.Height)
Dim x
Dim y
[CODE]...
Secondly, -and that's the stupid way- i did -or better i wanted to do- this: i put the code to dynamically create labels, each label having the colour of a pixel as background colour and as text the colour converted to rgb
The third step which i intended to do (i couldn't get pas two) was to sum up the labels etc.
I am trying to autoselect pre-programmed items in a listbox when a form opens with the control on it.but i cannot find a proper method to select all the items in the listbox and hold the resulting text as a string that will later be saved to a text file. i do not need help with saving the text to file but rather selecting the items in the listbox.so, after alot of trial and error and no luck I think I am supposed to use
ListBox.ObjectCollection
propriety. but i have no clue whats so ever in how to manage to select all the items in the listbox when this form opens...if this does not make sence then I will rephraze it.

I populate a DataGridView during a sub routine. Later in my code I have a RowEnter event for that DataGridView when the user is assessing it after it has been populated during the main procedure. However this RowEnter event gets fired while the DGV is being populate. I only want it to file AFTER its populated. Is it possible to disable this specific event while the DGV is being populated? I really want the user to have the ability to cursor up/down the DGV and see affects of the RowEnter Event. I know I can also use the CellEnter event but it does not have the same effect.

Is it possible to disable some items in a combobox?Depending on the current mode that my application is in, certain items need to be enabled or disabled.I know that I could remove the items and rebuild the combobox but in this case I think that by showing the items greyed out it gives the user feedback as to what mode they are in and what options would be available to them if they decided to switch modes.
