I have placed several PictureBox Images of different colored dots(which represent lights) on an image of a Christmas Tree. I can make the lights randomly flash using a randomGenerator and a Select case statement. However, the code is very long. There are 67 lights on this tree and the code is 71 pages long. There has to be an easier way to do this. So far I have tried the following with two images of lights just to see if it would work and it does not work:
I have a document management system which creates a report showing people who own which document. There are times where people have 0 documents and in that case I would like the repeater table for that person to not be visible. I have looked around for a while and have not had much luck, I have repeaters nested inside repeaters but if the first repeater is not visible the rest should follow.
Since I am making a program with quite a few users with different access levels, I usually turn all the toolstripmenuitems to visible false first, before turning some of them to visible true again as specific to the users.[code]...
How can I make semi-transparent form, with fully visible buttons on it? I'm trying with opacity, but I can't force it to work only with form.(And I need semi-transparent form, so I can't use TransparencyKey)
I am trying to hide Hyperlink visibility in Repeater if there isn't any Text value in Hyperlink. Something like this:
Protected Sub rptReferenca_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.RepeaterItemEventArgs) Handles rptReferenca.ItemDataBound Dim lnkThumb As HyperLink = CType(rptReferenca.FindControl("lnkThumb"), HyperLink)
I am trying to make a customer class that will simply make a bunch of controls (hotspots) Visible value = False.
For instance: WinStartSpot.visible = False
Thing is I have roughly 60 "spots" that need to be turned on and off as the user clicks through the program (its a very simple OS simulator) I tried to make a class using boolean return but that failed miserably. how to code a class like that?
A DataGridView in my VB.NET 2008 program contains over 15,000 rows. I loop through the rows, totalling groups of rows and appending 'total rows' and one 'Final total row' to the DataGridView. That works fine. I want to initially hide all rows except for the total rows, giving the user the option to show all 'detail' rows. If i place the statement << dgvTitleCounts.Rows(intRow).Visible = False >> in the loop, execution time increases by three minutes and that is unacceptable.
I see two options: (1) find a faster way of making all rows invisible; and (2) place the total rows in a separate DataSet and bound DataGridView.
i write Me.Visible = false a statement in the load event of the form my application has only one form and it call itself to hide. but when i run the program it doesn't hide itself i put the breakpoint on the statement to see if it even executes or not. it executes fine but no effect what it suppose to do i also have a notification icon added to a form to see it running in system tray.
I have a couple of textboxes whose databinding's text is set and also readonly is true and visible is false. but when I try to read their values they are all null unless I turn their visibilty to true. The same method is also needed to add a new row to the table (when using bindingsource1.addnew()).
I got a couple of issues with my windows application VB.Net. I seem to cannot set the form to be invisible before it shows up for a second, there is no option in the properties of a form and also if I set the form to visible = false before the form is loaded it doesn't work.
So this does not work:
Browser.Visible = False Browser.Show()
and this does work but the form shows up for a second which I am still not very happy with
I am stumped on this one. I have a panel (pnlKeyPad) that won't change the visible property when I try to set it to True. But when I try to set the Dock Property to DockStyle.Fill it succeeds. I have tried them in different orders, setting the parent property to the splitpanel and nothing seems to fix it. The panel is on a splitpanel that is visible. The panel is set to visible = false by default.
Any ideas of why this panel won't switch to visible when I specifically set it to visible?[code]...
I know how to turn a control's visible property to true or false, the only thing I don't know is: If I have, for instance, 40 group boxes in which only one is visible, when I click on a button, the first group box visible = false and the second group box visible = true, and when I click on it again, the second group box visible = false and the third group box visible = true, and so on I don't want to write the codes for every controls, since it will be quite time consuming, I want to use fewer codes to achieve this objective,
Having an issue with my data gridview. I've set the visible property of the ID column to false, and in the designer the column is hidden, yet it still shows up when i run it. Now if i set it to True it shows the column twice.
I have a form which won't open properly under certain circumstances if a particular Button is set to visible = false. Under the same circumstances if the Button is set to visiblbe = true the form does open properly or if the line of code at a certain place where it is set to either visible = true or visible = false is commented out or not there then the form opens properly. If any one of the 5 phases on my form are turned on then the problem doesn't ever occur but if none of the phases are on then the problem does occur. I just found a fix for the situation but I still am not clear about what exactly is going on.
I have a graphics application that uses graphics paths. Code seen below. You can use keyboard characters to display information. When a label is set to visible = false after being turned on for a number of seconds a stray image is generated. The stray images are also sometimes generated when the label is first made visible.
' points p10b, p2b etc are defined elsewhere Dim GrpPoints As PointF() = {p10b, p2b, p3b, p11b, p5b, p6b, p12b} GrPath = New GraphicsPath ' 7 path points GrPath.AddBeziers(GrpPoints)
[code]....
I tried stopping the code from running when the label is set to visible = false but the stray image is still generated but just later. If you want more information let me know.The white arrows points to the stray image that is created just after a label that displayed information was set to visible = false
I have a project where I need to call\execute a sub only after a certain timer has finished running and is disabled\stopped. The sub is called directly after the line of code that activates\starts the timer and the timer needs to run\tick for a couple of times before finally stopping itself with the help of a counter that's within the timer.tick event. The reason I need to wait for the timer is because it is working on some value that is needed by my sub.
Here's a portion of my rather long code that isn't working
'Assume this is my calling sub Private sub CallingSub(Byval value As Integer) Select Case value
[Code].....
But this method and a few others are not working and are mostly resulting in a non-terminating loop. What I don't understand is why is this happening and what is the proper way to wait for timers to finish. The timers interval is 30 milliseconds.
I have 4 radio buttons in a group box that I populate with answers from a database.
1.) The way the program works is I first populate one of the buttons randomly with the correct answer.
2.) I then proceed to populate the remaining buttons with False answers, by starting at the first button to see if it has a value or not. If not, it is then populated, if so then its skipped and I move on to the next button. This continues until I populate the remaining three buttons with false answers.what is the best way to prevent the three false buttons from having the same value? And where can I find an example.
I'm using a System.Timers.Timer in a service that seems to keep ticking after it has been disabled. I'm using autoreset = false so I would expect it to only tick once unless I start it up again. I'm calling stop again, just for good measure, but the timer keeps on ticking.I'm using VB.NET in .net 1.1 and don't have the option to change frameworks.Here is a simple console app to reproduce the issue. This is not the actual code from the project.I believe the interval is long enought to prevent any thread issues in raising the event multiple times, but I will admit I'm not a threading expert.

I am trying to build a form that will present one question at a time with true false buttons. It will tell the user how many questions they got right at the end of the quiz. how to i present one question at a time ?? since one button handles only one event.
when i click a command button i want two additional command buttons to become visible,when i click the original button a second time i want the two additional buttons to be set to visual false.i was going to use a counter and if statements but im sure there's got to be a simpler way.
VB GridView control will not allow code in the vb code file to access a data column that has its visible property set to false. When it is set to true, the data column can be accessed with no problem. Any suggestions as to how to correct this? I have looked through the documentation, text books, and I have not found anything that gave me any clue as to what the problem could be. I thought that the property was just applied to the column, not that it would remove the column from being accessible.
I have 2 group box components and both are same size,font,location and visible is false. When i click button2, the groupbox1 won't appear(the group box2 is on bottom n group box1 is on top).
Example:
button1
groupbox1.visible=false
groupbox2.visible=true
button2
groupbox1.visible=true
groupbox2.visible=false
Because i want to show the different,so the location have a little different(actually both are same location). I think my code is no problem. The problem i guess is both component cannot locate at same location?
