Make A Scrolling Text Label At The Bottom Of A Form?
Oct 16, 2008
I'm attempting to make a scrolling text label at the bottom of a form. It is the type of scroll you can see on the weather station when there is a tornado warning out. I was wondering if someone could help me go about doing it?
Basically, I am trying to have a label, which scrolls smoothly. The scroll text will be the contents of a string variable. I was also wondering if it would be possible to have the entire scroll "disappear" as the end of it scrolls onto the left side of the screen, then it pauses for a moment, and starts the scroll again, playing an alert tone each time.

1: the blinking carat from Form5.Textbox1 is showing up and scrolling along with my text in Form1.Label6 I want to remove the carat as it looks messy! how do I do this?2: Form1.Label6 starts scrolling across the bottom of the form at the speed I want. But then slows down once the last letter has come into view on the right hand side of the form? I have changed some of the settings and got it to be the same all the way across with the timer set at an interval of 50 and the following
scrolling text
Private Sub Timer2_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer2.Tick

How can a text box control be programmatically made to scroll down and show the new lines appended at the bottom?
When data is appended to a multiline text box control, it always displays the first lines at the top, and the user has to scroll to the bottom to see the latest. When more data is appended, the control zooms right back to the top.
The vertical scroll is enabled, and so is multiline.

I have read that VB .NET in earlier versions limited the FORM size to that of the development machine screen resolution.I am hoping that there is a way in the current VB 2010 to get around that.However in my attempts to make the form larger, it always resets itself to the screen height on my develoment machine.Is there a way to get around this and have the person be able to use a scroll bar to move down?The data I wish to show actually has two screens worth of information but the stuff in the scroll down section would be used on a limitied basis so scrolling will be useful rather than having to recreat the screen to show less data at one time.

Basically the form moves to the bottom of the screen so that the bottom of the form is at the bottom of the screen. It the increases the width of the form until it is the width of the screen. The height stays the same. So it fills the bottom of the screen.

I am trying to scroll lines of text on a Form.
ie:
I add via (addString plus fill Path to give Outline Text) for say eight lines of text (which fill the screen with margins set at top and bottom) from a DatagridView control but there are say ten lines to that section, so I want to use the down arrow to scroll the lines up the screen, so the top two go off the top of the screen(hiden by margin boxes) and the last two added at the bottom. I have this all working but there is a lot of flickering, how can I do this more smoothly? I think it is the Form.refresh that causes the flickering, I have tried ResetText, Invalidate and Graphic.Clear, but none seem to make it smooth.
Sections of code:
'Adds line
For A = LineStart To LineSelEnd + 1
strItem = DataGridView1.Item(1, A - 1).Value
Dim useFont As Font = New Font(SongFont, CInt(SongSizeP), SongStyle)
[Code]....

In a project I am doing, I was hoping to show a listbox at the bottom of a label when I click the label so a number can be selected. I don't want to use a combobox or numericupdown because of the look. The problem I have, and I hope can be resolved is that when the listbox is shown, it is drawn under the other controls. Is it possible to show it over the others?

I dragged and dropped a label from the toolbox onto a form (Label6) and stupidly went to the properties window and set "Text" to blank. Label6 shows when the program is run using F5 but does not show on the design surface if I want to move or remove it. How do I get it back onto the design surface or remove it completely?

I am new to the forums and just started to learn vb.net. Currently I am making a project that require a lot of text. Since I would need over 20 labels and do not want to hide every single one, is there a way to place text on a specific place on form through coding. Then, I could just make it a sub and easily hide the text and reveal it

I have this Quiz software that lets you create online multiple choice quizzes which are great for studying (I am in grad school and I'm trying to use everything I can to learn). So the Quiz software is great but it only lets you input questions by hand, one by one. I took a look at the .xml file that the quiz program spits out and came up with the idea to try and make a converter so that I can import many questions at once. I was hoping to try and solve this limitation by doing the following:
Take a .doc that say a tutor gives us with a bunch of practice questions, and then take that into Crimson Editor, and then format it so the question is on line 1, the multiple choice answers are on lines 3,4,5, and 6, (for the next question, the question would be on line 11, and the answers on lines 13, 14, 15, and 16, and so on) and then take that saved .txt file into my program, hit the generate button, and it will spit out the .xml file, and then import that into the quiz software to generate the online quiz.
Here is an attached screenshot of my program layout so far:
I figured out how to open a text file by watching simple youtube tutorials, but I don't know how to have it generate the stuff and have it show up in the bottom text box. I know how to do the coding to convert the txt to proper xml code but I don't know how to be able to save the contents of the bottom text window to an xml file.
