Make A User Control That Draws A Line And Adds Transparency Over A Form
Nov 12, 2010
I am an intern at a company doing Drawing Tools for their program. My supervisor is currently having me just make a user control that draws a line and adds transparency over a form. (I started this internship very early, so my knowledge is very limited compared to what it should be for a standard intern)
This is what I have so far:
Protected Overrides Sub OnPaint(ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs)
If MyBG Is Nothing Then
MyBG = New Bitmap(Me.Width, Me.Height)
[CODE]...

I have a Save() function as shown below;
Code:
Public Function Save() As Boolean
Dim valid As Boolean = True
Dim Message As String = String.Empty
[Code].....
What I want to do is when The toolbarbutton1 is clicked it checks for the
Save () - if txtprojend.Text = "" then it displays the message. So far, it does that but then it closes the form. I don't want it to close the form unless the user adds text in txtprojend, as it is a mandatory field.

I used some code i found that extends the aero glass border across the entire form... looks great... however when i add a control (like a datagridview) it doesnt look right at all because of the transparency of the form...

This is simple program, draws a rectangle, marks the x & y axis, & plots a dashed line grid. However, the grid sub has to be called twice - only then will the grid line be visible. Why does this happen?

I'm making an application where a user draws a shape on a picture box( this will be saved on a bitmap image), then another user has to draw on that shape (=follow it ) . if the 2nd user goes too far from the line then an error message will appear.
for example( in case i couldn't clarify this well!)the 1st user draws a a vertical line, the 2nd user has to follow it, if-while drawing on it- he gets too far horizontally, there would be the error.
I'm currently thinking of comparing every point by the 2nd user to its equivalent in an array containing the points by the first user.

Here's my situation: I have a control with motion graphics (for the sake of simplicity, a 'video player' control) in my project. Think of a PictureBox with constantly-changing images. In front of this will sit a second control (such as a second PictureBox of the same dimensions). The topmost PictureBox will be drawn to in its Paint event.
I need to draw very few elements, and the bottom control is updated much more frequently than I need for this drawing. So these elements are drawn to the topmost control. Think of a news broadcast, where they have live video in the background, with a news channel logo, news ticker, and sometimes gradient visible in front.
I'm trying to create that 'foreground' control, and the closest I believe I have gotten so far is the following:
Imports System.Drawing
Imports System.Drawing.Imaging
Imports System.Drawing.Drawing2D
[CODE]...
The 'Opacity' property in the code above is a sort of "scaling factor." The image drawn to the top control may, in different parts of the image, have any alpha value from full transparent to a full 255. This 'Opacity' property is applied to the entire image being drawn, scaling the alpha values of each pixel.

I am using vb.net 2010. I have a datagridview whose data source is a data table. I dynamically add rows to the data table.
[Code]...
After adding the new row, m_table is correct. However, DVGCusClient not only adds this row, but also adds two additional blank rows at the bottom. I have no idea where these two blank rows come from. Why I use above code is as follows: Use a data grid view to display data. When a user clicks a row, another form is opened which allows user to search/input some data.When the user closes the form, all data is saved to a data table and shown on the data grid view.

I am trying to use the Web Browser control in my vb .net user control. I am using VS 2008. Finally, I will be calling my assembly (.dll) from a web page. I wanted to display the usercontrol with the web browser control inside this web page. The problem is I cannot proceed since the Web browser control cannot be called from a partially trusted assembly. Using VS 2008 I have created a strong name for my class, also added the <Assembly: AllowPartiallyTrustedCallers()> to the AssemblyInfo. But still the web browser control cannot be seen in my web page. Do you how I can make my assembly fully trusted so that it can access web browser control? If you have used web browser control, can you confirm if this step is really required?!

I am wanting to allow a user to enter a number and depending on what number is entered, it will allow that many entries. For example, if 5 is entered, the user has to enter 5 numbers. Those 5 numbers will then be added together.I 6 is entered, 6 total numbers will be added.I was trying to do this with a for next loop but I wasn't getting anywhere.

Don't know if this is possible, but I'd like a config section to be generated when another developer adds my dll to their project. This way they don't have to look up in code or a doc as to what they need to put in their config file.

I want to make the text in column of ListView control to be 2 lines. So I use the codes below to test. The result is bad. The "vbcrlf" in str2 doesnot work at all. Dim str1 As String = "Job Number12345" Dim str2 As String = "Job Number" + vbCrLf + "12345" ListView1.Columns.Add(str1, 100, HorizontalAlignment.Center) ListView1.Columns.Add(str2, 100, HorizontalAlignment.Center)

I've making a program that must crop 20 squares out of a larger image that is in a picturebox. Now I've created a Draggable rectangle control and set it's Background to transparent. This is working (kindof).
Now I have set my control to doublebuffered = true and it Removes tha annoying flicker.My problem is that doublebuffering creates a new problem. My control's parent is a picturebox with a large picture inside.When I move my control over the picture to select the area to be cropped it updates slowly I.E The control Is in a new area but it still displays the old area and then updates which is annoying.If you want to see for yourself create a new project with a picturebox with a Image inside with my Control as a child of the picturebox.
[Code]...
I have thought of possible solutions but they might well be much slower.#1 Copy the part of the picturebox that is under the control and paste it on my control.#2 Somehow eliminate the backcolor property thus eliminating the need to paint something over the control and only paint needed parts .

This is my first attemt to create a new custom controll that I'll be spawning in runtime. I have written rendering onto a control before but this is the first time I made a real user control.
The problem at the moment is that when I set the backcolor of my custom control to transparent it doesn't take over the backcolor of the main form. Instead it just renders it solid black. Any idea why this might be?(I render everything in the onpaint method if you wonder)
I tried setting the ControlStyles.SupportsTransparentBackColor but that doesnt work for forms only for control derived types.

I did some research on how to make transparent User Control, The suggested code was like this:
Private Sub New()
' This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
InitializeComponent()
' Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call.
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.SupportsTransparentBackColor, True)
Me.BackColor = Color.Transparent
UpdateStyles()
End Sub
When I build the project, there is no errors. But, When I try to load my user control using the "Choose ToolBox Items" dialog, it gives me the following error message:
"There is no components in [dll path] that can be placed on the toolbox."

I have created the user control which has two predefined components namely:
1.TextBox(which is used for searching name of items)
2.DatagridView(used for displaying name of item which are similar to text enetred in TextBox)
When we drop this usercontrol on any form then the code which written during creation of user control must be automatically created behind the form and which must be modificial...
I have used VB.NET 2008 and SQL server 2005.

I have a user control which contains some textboxes,buttons ,labels and comboboxes . I used that control in a form and inside a split contaier.Splitter can be moved by the user. User control is docked as fill.
Now when user move the splitter the user control size is changes as it is dock fill but the inner controls used in that user control looks like fixed in a single place .It are not moving nor resizing .How to do this .Is there any property to perform thisI already know about anchor property but sometimes it causes overlapping of controls so I can not use it.

I've created the beginnings of my new web application, but I am often coming up against the issue that ASP.NET renames elements IDs or in the case of form fields, their names.I have a form which is basically a sales system. It is essentially made up of two User Controls, one is a form for Customer Details (name, address etc) and the second is a form for the customer's purchases, it consists of a number lines dynamically created by Javascript created as you list the items the customer is purchasing. Both these sections are User Controls because they are to be used for other areas of the system where this data will need to be recalled/re-entered.When the USer Control is loaded, the field which contains the Customers' Name is renamed "m$mainContent$customerForm$name" I understand where this comes from, "m" is the ID of my Master Page, "mainContent" is the main Content Placeholder and "customerForm" is the name of the User Control.
In fact, in my case, this will always remain the same on all forms, so it is relative easy to overcome... but... suppose it wasn'tI can see there are ways I could deal with this with Javascript, but the form doesn't need an AJAX submit, a normal Post will do fine for this, so when I open up the recieving page I want to call Request.Form("name")% to save the customer's name into the database, but of course I really need Request.Form("m$mainContent$customerForm $name")%How would I dynamically extract those prefixes from the posting form to ensure that if I rename anything or use it in a different scenario, the problem will not break it?I am using .NET 2.0, so can't use Static Client.
