.net - Hiding Window Loses Window's Functionality?
Aug 5, 2011I 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

Hiding A Process Window In VB?
Mar 27, 2009I have been working on a program to hide windows for an active process. I found some examples on the internet explaining how to do this. The problem, however, is that after I hide the windows I cannot get them back. The process still shows up in task manager but i cannot restore the window..
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Imports System.Diagnostics
Public Class Form1

Hiding And Showing A Window
Oct 11, 2009I was just googleing this, and i came across this
Dim p As New System.Diagnostics.Process
p.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
p.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = True
p.StartInfo.FileName = "cmd.exe"
p.Start()
Does that mean that i could show it again? if so, is there a code that can do this?Also, if i wanted to get the window that the user is currently in, how would i be able to hide that?
Hiding The Ctrl+F Window
Feb 16, 2012I'm making a webbrowser and coding the ctrl+f function has proven to be too complicated. I therefore decided to link buttons with the ctrl+f window that already exists in IE. What i want to do now is hide the ctrl+f window that pops up. When I hide active window at the moment it hides the webbrowser and not the ctrl+f window that pops up.

VS 2010 Hiding Window Of External Process?
Jan 7, 2012So i want to start an application with my vb.net app and it should start as a hidden process, meaning no window and nothing in the task bar, only in the task manager ofcourse.
This is what i do
Dim fov As New Process
If CheckBox2.Checked = True Then
RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & vbCrLf & "* - Launching"
fov.StartInfo.FileName = ("test.exe")
[Code]...
This does not work.. I have also tried the "fov.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True" command which does not work either. I can live with a solution that would start the window minimized instead of totally hidden.

IDE :: Modules Window While Debugging
Oct 7, 2009I have read many many forums regarding the error message "No symbols have been loaded. The breakpoint will not be hit." I had this error message come up a while ago, so I opened a previous version of my project, and copied the newest version of the code I am working on into that project. Then when I debugged, everything worked fine...for a while. Then I got the error message back, so I did the same thing again, and who would have guessed the error message returned, out of the blue. I am working on the program and it works fine, then suddenly one time when I try to debug with a breakpoint I get that message again. So I did some more research and I found a post that recommended looking at the Modules window while debugging (under debug > windows > modules). And in this window under my project, it said "Cannot find or open the PDB file". However, I compared this to the previous version of the program, that works fine, and I noticed that under Path, for my project, the path that I see is not the path where my project is located. So what I am asking is can someone please tell me how to change that path to the correct path where my files are actually located? I believe that if the path is correct, it will find and load the symbols.

Mar 8, 2011Trying to debug a Windows application, in the Immediate Window, if I type the following:?UBound( I see a tooltip showing the syntax of UBound, but when I complete the statement as ?UBound(CBa) where CBa is the name of an array, I get the response: Name 'UBound' is not declared. Strangely enough, the UBound function is referenced in the code prior to the breakpoint, and works correctly. Why can't I use it in the Immediate Window?

IDE :: Debugging Nightmare: Cannot Drill Down Into Object Collections In QuickWatch Window?
Mar 15, 2007My colleague and I have recently upgraded our projects from .NET Framework 1.0 and VS2002 to .NET Framework 2.0 and VS2005. We also applied the latest VS2005 service pack.
Our problem: normally when debugging we use the QuickWatch window to drill down into and view collections of objects belonging to the parent object we are "watching". THIS NO LONGER WORKS...instead, we get a message in the value line against the object collection saying:"In order to evaluate an indexed property, the property must be qualified and the arguments must be explicitly supplied by the user."This is incredibly frustrating, particularly when we have large nested collections of objects.We are pretty sure this feature was working fine after we upgraded, but we are not so sure that it was working after we applied the VS2005 service pack.

View 5 RepliesFirst Column Not Hiding In Datagridview?
Feb 26, 2010I have a datagridview and once I populate the view with the data source I hide the columns that I do not need. For some reason the 1st column is not hiding. I have checked the column name and they match and the 2nd line executes fine hides the column for the EVENTID. I even did a messagebox.show( dgvTourOther.Columns("OTHERID").name) and it returned the correct name.
dgvTourOther.Columns("OTHERID").Visible = False
dgvTourOther.Columns("EVENTID").Visible = False
The values being passed are all strings. I do this on 3 other datagridviews ok but for somereason this gridview is acting different. I am going to try an rearrange the columns and see if that helps.

Say I have Combobox1 with items (1)Breakfast (2) Lunch (3)Dinner
and I have combobox2 with items (1)Apples (2)Bananas (3)Grapes(4)Oranges

Panel Not Hiding From Checkedchanged?
Mar 27, 2010I want my panels to be visible when the radio button is check and when its unchecked it would hide.
Setup:
5 panels
5 radio button
radio button1 shows panel1 if checked Each radio button is set to show each panel and hide each one if its checked or not. Ex:
Private Sub RadioButton1_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles RadioButton1.CheckedChanged
If RadioButton1.Checked = True Then
Panel1.Visible = True
[code].....
When my form loads it shows panel1 because radiobutton one is check. But when i select another radio button panel one doesnt hide. Also when i did it to the other panels such as 2,3,4,5 it does hide and show when the checked state has changed.
