Handle Multiple Moving / Scrolling Labels
Feb 25, 2010
I have an application which I've designed to relay information on a large screen, like news feeds etc. It scrolls labels inside panels so the text moves in a readable fashion. It actually works quite well but it seems to struggle sometimes by consuming too many CPU cycles. I've turned on double-buffering on the form as I remember this graphics method from years ago. This improves the display drawing in general but I am still getting flickering and sometimes the scrolling slows down considerably.

With VB, but I've got the few basics down, file naming, adding objects, naming objetcs, etc. But the reason I'm on here is because I cannot complete even the first step. Our form is 640 X 480, and we need to have two labels, both have vertical scrolls. I know how to add and resize the labels to meet my needs, but I do not know how to create scrolling labels. Or are they text boxes? On our bubble chart (Do you know what that means?) it says lblInformation. We are going to have clickable radio buttons which will update the lblInformation with info about each of the radio buttons.

I have a load of information on my label in a groupbox on the form there is too much information to be seen in one go so i want to use a vertical scrollbar to move the label up and down inside the groupbox so it can be read.
The issue i'm having is:
1: The label covers the bottom edge of the groupbox (looks a little naff) i need it to fall inside the groupbox if possible.
2: Any movement on the vertical scrollbar seems to send the label in one direction only - so how do i work it so that up moves it up and down moves it down?
Should i use a multiline textbox rather than a label and move the carat?

The code I came up with ALMOST works... but almost is not enough.
1.) all 3 of my richtextboxes have the same quantity of lines, always.
2.) When I scroll one of them, I want them all to scroll in unison, as if they were 1 richtextbox.
Here is the code I have that ALMOST works right....
Public LastLineNumber As Integer
Public HighestVisibleLine As Integer = 16
Public LowestVisibleLine As Integer = 0

I am creating a program to simulate a tenpin bowling scoring system, and I'm using labels with the following name structure:Player1Frame1Ball1, Player1Frame1Ball2, etc.. I have following variables also: CurrentPlayer, CurrentFrame, CurrentBallI am hoping to use these variables to specify which label I would like to check the value of (the score achieved, placed in the label).
To test my experiments I have been trying to output the score of the first ball in the current frame in a msgbox, but to no success:
MsgBox("lblplayer" & currentplayer & "frame" & currentframe & "ball.text")

After scouring the articles online I have come up with this design for a winforms based touchscreen app that needs smartphone like scrolling. The app itself will run on a tablet laptop or touchscreen desktop.I put everything I want to scroll on a panel. Set autoscroll to true (which will show scrollbars)Now put this whole panel inside a groupbox.Shrink the groupbox until the scrollbars are hidden (visually hidden, not visible = false)
Now the fun part I am stuck at.I think I have to handle the mousedown, mouseup & mousemove on the panel to set the autoscrollposition so that when someone touches the panel and drags, it does it's scroll magic. Please help fill in the few lines of code in below method stubs. The msdn doc on autoscrollposition is very confusing since it returns negative numbers but needs to be set to positive with abs and what not.

Point mouseUpPoint;
Point mouseDragPoint;[code]......

This is the code that I have at the moment
[code]...
It allows a user to click a button which will then cause a label to be created on the form with w.e was in 'txtdescription' (A textbox that the user can type into)
The PROBLEM with this is if you change the text and/or click button1 again, it will technically create a new label in that spot.
What should I do to make it so each time button1 is clicked, the label that is generated will appear below each other.

Is this possible? I have tried a few different methods with no luck. I am more of a JAVA person, but am taking some classes for VB, and have been playing around. This is what I have tried:
[Code]...
I think I'm going about this the wrong way, but would like to know if anyone has achieved this. All I'm doing is printing a simple character map to 255 labels, each label containing a char. Not an assignment, just having fun.

I wanted to make a flow chart with more than 50 labels (see this link for just a small portion of the flow chart [URL]). I looked all around but couldn't find one in VB 2008 with the same problem. but anyway, my questions are:
1. Is there a way to set the color of all the labels instead of just one by one say:
Label1.BackColor = Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Control)
Label2.BackColor = Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Control)
Label3.BackColor = Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Control)
...
...
...
There should be a way to loop through them
2. Is there a way for search through the Labels and find for example Label14? or a label with tagindex of 14? I rather be able to find label 14 but the tag also works.
3. Is there a better way to represent flow charts and stuffs like that in VB 2008?

When I made the code in the sub generic and passed in the values the timer needed (hour, min, timername) from a start button it seems not to matter which start button is pressed as the labels output the information for the last button pressed.

I have attached the form in initial state. What you don't see in the initial state is 10 hidden labels. I want the loop(which I am calling as a function??) to compute the numbers and display in the labels. Example, if I input 1 for the first term, 3 for the second term and 4 for the total terms, the first 4 labels should become visible and have in them one solution each:
1 - 1
2 - 3
3 - 4
4 - 7
Am I way off with what I want to do? Cannot use arrays, must be a loop.This is the compute button:
Private Sub BtnComp_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnComp.Click

I have multiple textboxes which I want them to perform the same thing upon clicking them. By default I can use the handles textbox1.click for 1 single textbox but I am not sure how to do handle multiples of them. Of course I can write a handler for every single textbox but I have about 50.
Sub TextBox1_click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.Click
If Button9.Text = "Make Changes" Then
If TextBox2.Text <> "" Then
Frm_Cine1.Show()

One of my clients wants a set up multiple dropdown lists as a set of outbound links (yes, I cringed too, but he does have his reasons. there are 3 dropdowns, each one pertaining to its own group of links. When each dropdown has its SelectedIndexChanged, it then redirects based on the choice made. However, lets say I make a choice in the second dropdown. It goes to the proper link. If I then choose a link in the first dropdown, it goes to the proper link. Then if I select a link in the third dropdown, it will go to the link specified in the choice I made in the FIRST dropdown.
How can I code it so that it will always select the most recent selection?

I am making a program which will read data from csv and pick up Username & Computer name from the csv.
Then it will run commands via telnet with those username and computer on line at a time. I have reached this goal without any problem. I wanted to paste the code here but its too much.
Basically what i now want to do is have a option for user to skip a command.
Like if csv have 3 users in it. i.e.
j.doe, comp1
t.test, comp2
u.user, comp3
Popup will come and say do you want to run the command "add user j.doe, comp1" something and you will have option to say Yes, No , Cancel.
Where yes will run the command and no will skip that user (go to next one) and cancel will end the whole process.
I know Msgbox yes,no is there but i dont know how to skip that user.
Following is the code which migh
vb
Dim objCmdSelect As New OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM " & fileNam & "", objConn)
For i = 0 To objDataset1.Tables(0).Rows.Count - 1

At design time in the IDE, you can ctrl-click or drag a box around multiple controls on a form and move them all at once. How do you do that at runtime. I need to be able to create image maps based on textual copies of medical claim forms that are generated from different systems and the ability to create dynamic label controls and move a single or multiple controls and resize is required. How does MS do this in the IDE?
