Can I make a certian function that will fade out [make a black screen that fades out for 2 seconds], then come back? Is that possible? ON A FORM.
View 3 Repliesmake the screen fade.By fade i mean you know when you goto Start>Turn Of My Computer in Xp and the screen turns black and white.
View 7 RepliesI have created a splash screen and would like it to display for 5 seconds and then display the MainMenu form. The book I am following suggested using
Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000)
but it just makes the splash screen APPEAR after 5 seconds of nothing.
I can get a shape to go down and reappear at the top but I can't figure out how to get it to work going up.This is my code for going down:
If shpBar.Top + shpBar.Height < Me.Height Then
shpBar.Top += 50
Else
shpBar.Top = 0
End If
I'm currently making a huge project. So huge it is split into four separate applications. I want the form to fade to black once the user logs on and only fade up when the new program has fully loaded. I've tried various methods, such as having the second program write to a file on the C: drive, then have the first program wait until that file exists to fade out.Is there a more efficient way? My method isn't working... the form will fade to black, but you get a glimpse of the desktop just before the new program launches (both are full screen apps btw)
View 1 RepliesIn XP when you go to shut down, windows fades to black and white. I think that's a nice effect.How would i go about fading a color image (image box stretched - like a screen saver) to black and white...?
Has this ever been done? Is their a code snippet that already exsists?
I'm trying to make a picture box do a "fade in" effect. I just don't exactly know how to code it. The general premise is, in the main form's load event handler, I'd run a procedure so that when the form opens up, a picture will fade in. I have 20 copies of the same picture, each gradually less and less faded.I was thinking of cycling through an array of all the images with a timer control so it animates and fades in.

For i = 255 To 1 Step -1
MyPanel.BackColor = Color.FromArgb(i,Color.Red)

This will make the background color fade to transparent.The problem is, I don't want only the background color to change.I want to change the visibility / opacity of all the controls inside that panel too..

Is it possible to make the scrollbars in my webbrowser a thin black line which moves up and down, instead of the usual ones?So its just a black line (maybe 3pt thick) which is OVER the content, on the right hand side. So as you scroll the black line changes size like a normal scrollbar, but it isn't separated from the content, its actually over the top of it.Sort of like the scrollbars on an iPhone if you've seen them.

I am using the cursor converter to set both
dim cCon as cursorconverter = new cursorconverter
me.cursor = cursorconverter.ConvertFrom(myCursor.cur)
and
windows.forms.cursor.current = cursorconverter.ConvertFrom(myCursor.cur)
the reason for setting both is that otherwise the cursor will not always have the desired appearance. I know that cursors can be rendered in color, like 3D-Bronze, windows animated, hands and variations.
I'm not positive if this should be here or in graphics so I'm sorry if I'm posting it in the wrong section.I'm trying to make a program for the game Go. Now before getting upset that I want to make the game go I just want to say that I have looked for months for this specific thing and I still have yet to find it. I want to make something to simulate go so that two people can play on the same computer. The problem I ran into was capturing stones. Stones are captured when surrounded and then they are taken from the board. The problem is that I don't know how to make the program know when a black stone is surrounded.
I have thought of a grid detecting but the possibilites on a 19x19 area are too high for anybody to sit down and program. I have also thought of using picture boxes and the edges to detect other pictures, but there are ways for stones to group together and the opponent must surround all stones to capture them.
I am trying to make a calculator program. I would like the display(text box) to have a white background, with black font. So I set the "enabled" property of the textbox to "false"(because I want it to display, not receive input) and then choose the background colour to be white. In the form designer, the text colour is black, which is what I want.But when I start debugging, the text becomes the colour of the form. How can I make the font black?

View 3 RepliesI wanted to make a screen recorder (not screen capture) program, but I am not entirely sure how to get it started. I have seen many videos and things on how to make one, but all of these just take multiple pictures and then don't compile them into a movie file, and I don't want to take many pictures (unless that is the only way possible.) I am using Visual Basic 2010 Express and I have looked at the Windows Media Encoder, but I can't seem to figure out how to use/implement it (yes, I have downloaded and installed it.) Maybe I can use some kind of ActiveX control?
