Interface And Graphics :: Use A Graphical User Interface That Contains A Drag And Drop Form?
Oct 19, 2008I'm working on a design project where I have to use a Graphical User Interface that contains a drag and drop form. It consists of having a window dropped on a wall. Both of them are images to scale. I would like to know what kind of code I would have to use to show the x and y coordinates of one of the points of my window when dragged so when I drop it, I'm dropping in it on the desired coordinate of the wall.

View 3 RepliesHangMan Game - Project That Has A Graphical Interface ?
Apr 20, 2009I am working on this hangman project that has a graphical interface where the user has 2 options either guess the entire phrase or use a combo box to guess letters. I have the guess text box working but I can't for the life of me figure out why it is not working correctly with the combo box. The following is my entire code for the project. I have it setup to show me which phrase it randomly selected but when ever I pick a letter in that phrase it doesn't fill it in or anything. I'm thinking it is an issue with my loops.
I highlighted the section where the problem is occurring.

Launch Legacy GUI Application Without GUI From VB (hide Graphical Interface)
Aug 20, 2010I have a legacy application that has an interactive graphical user interface, but also periodically checks for files in a directory and reacts to the files. I want to launch the application from a VB program, but not see the GUI (i.e., just let the file interface do it's thing). I really don't want to see the application running on the desktop at all (e.g., no windows, nothing on taskbar), the only evidence would be if I checked task manager I'd see it running.
Obviously this app would be ideally a service, but that's not where we are and I can't change it so I'm trying to simply not see the GUI.
I've seen the ProcessStartInfo.CreateNoWindow and WindowStyle = hidden flags but they don't hide the GUI of the legacy app.
again launch the legacy app (actually an unmanaged C++/MFC app) from a VB managed admin app.
VB 2010 Program & Graphical User Interface Design
Feb 15, 2012I'm trying to hone up on my (beginner) coding skills & I would prefer that the the 'Designer coding window', not the 'Design window', wouldn't interfere with these studies. Sometimes it's there & sometimes it's not. I don't understand it at this point & would prefer it wasn't there. All I need is the 'Design window' & the 'regular coding window'.

View 1 Replies.net - Making A Visual Studio-alike Interface Document Tabs?
Dec 1, 2011I'm currently making an dynamic interface using the latest version of DevExpress. I finished making the DockManager with multiple DockPanel in it but there's only one problem.If you look on screenshot #1 you'll notice that in the center of Visual Studio, there's no DockPanel (screenshot #2) container for those document tabs. Also, those document tabs CAN'T dock inside side panels, but side panels CAN dock inside document panels (see screenshot #3)
That is what I'm trying to do. You can see how far I am right now on screenshot #4.
So here's a summary of my questions
1) How could I make some kind of main document panels that are filling the blank space between my side DockPanel?
FOUND! Using DevX's DocumentManager as the MDI.
2) How could I make those panel undockable inside side DockPanel but make the opposite possible?
FOUND! Using DevX's DocumentManager as the MDI.
3) How to make the panels "maximizable" like this (see screenshot #5) when outside the main window ?
4) By default, the tabs are located at the bottom of a stack of DockPanel, but I would like them to be ALWAYS located at the top, would it be possible?
FOUND! Using DevX's DocumentManager as the MDI.

The problem is designing this thing with all of these overlapping panels! It's crazy. So, how do you easily make an options menu like Firefox where clicking on different tabs brings up different data options?

View 1 RepliesProgress Bar / Updating Form From Another One (Graphical Glitches)
Aug 20, 2009My form has FOUR comboboxes populated from text files. The text files are loaded into an array into their own background process once completed are added to the combox. Due to the sheer amount of items the loading causes a lag and as the combobox are on the main GUI thread a glitch appear for several seconds. I then had an idea of loading the initial form, showing another form which is made the topmost form with a progress bar (values derived from the count of items in the arrays populated from the text files).
When I added the progress bar any other label or image on the SAME form did not show until the progress bar had completed, how can I resolve this? When I use it in conjunction with the other form i.e. using the form with the progress bar to populate the other in the background graphical glitches appear (mad transparency effect). I have the code from the form with the progress bar below:-
'Load City information
'*********************
'Set form title
Me.Text = " Application loading city lookup information ...."
'Declare string array to store list of towns
Dim citylookup() As String
[Code] .....
Why I experience the glitch (assume it's because of refreshing the item, some kind of repaint needed)? Any alternative solution to prevent the user from using the form until all the comboboxes are populated?
VS 2010 Direct2D - Graphical Simulator Application Using GDI ?
Apr 17, 2012I've been working on a graphical simulator application using GDI. GDI is terrible for rendering what simple graphics I need, too much flickering and definitely not efficient. From what I have been reading GDI and GDI+ are pretty much out of date and what I should be using is Direct2D. But my problem starts when I cannot find ANY reference material to even begin coding. I found some examples for C++, but my little knowledge of C++ prevents me from implementing and translating it to VB2010. I have found someone on VBForums through a Google search that says he is starting a tutorial for Direct2D for VB2010 but I have yet to see anything happen.
All I am rendering are small circular shapes used for simulating cell growth, I have no problem rendering 10-20 moving shapes at a time with a small amount bearable flickering, but any more the lag worsens exponentially and the application will use a ridiculous amount cpu. Overall I want to be able to display and render over 100 shapes at a time. So my question is... Where can I find some reference material regarding Direct3D for VB2010?
Remotely Control A Graphical Program Through A Command Prompt
Jun 30, 2011I have created a VB.NET program using windows forms. The program runs on a remote PC and displays information on a screen. The computer does not even have a mouse or keyboard connected to it. The program shows the information based on the file that is loaded.I want to be able to change this file remotely to another file that is already on the remote PC. I can't use a graphical remote desktop client as we have very limited bandwidth.So, my idea is to change the file using the command prompt.I'm not sure how to do this. Should I use something like this and load DosModule first:[code]How would I then read commands that is send to the program? I also only want one instance of the program running.

Designing Software - Making A MPC Sampler - Drum Machine - Making A Sound Directory ?
May 16, 2012I'm a huge music person (got my own lil record thing going) but I'm wanting to design a program that would make music in my way. I have a decent amount of background knowlege of Visual Basic and Java I'm just wondering how could I execute this whole project. The Project is making a MPC Sampler. MPC is a drum machine; a machine with buttons that once you press it that it will play a sound from a drum (ex: snare, kick, tom, ect.) . So I would want to make some pads on my program that each have their own sound. Total of 16 pads. Which the design wouldn't be hard to make nor would the functionality of it having the play back sound (in my opinoin it wouldn't be hard atleast). But the thing is I wanna map out these pads to number keys on the number pad or keyboard. I'm not so sure how to do that. But that's all the easy stuff...
Also finding information is making a sound directory. What I mean by this is that I want to make a User Interface that will open up a file directory of sounds and the user can select what "kick" or "snare" sound he may want for the kick or snare pad. I don't know how to do that or even know what to search; neverless I don't know if this whole project idea is a good idea for Visual Basic or another programing language.
Also LATER ON I am wanting to add a record and export function that alows users to..well...record and export their beat or instrumental ha. That doesn't seem too too complex (mainly due to the fact that all it needs to do is record the users key strokes and then show them and play the sounds, but obviously it would get more complex than that.)
Here is an image of one of many MPCs but one with a directory - [URL]

View 3 RepliesInterface And Graphics :: How To Procede With An Interface Design Approach
May 18, 2012I was wondering if I could elicit some tips on how to procede with an interface design approach.That is. What is a good way to go about establishing a "work area" where one can have multiple "floating forms" in this area.Can you have a form which occupies the entire windows desk top and the other forms "float" in this space? the "floating" forms would need to interact with each other where pressing buttons etc on them would affect other forms on the "workspace") Or what would be a good way to start accomplishing that? Or is there a better way to get the same effect?
View 4 RepliesInterface And Graphics :: Link A Class / Object To An Interface?
Apr 21, 2010I'm trying to make a .dll that contains a lot of basic functionality that a program can use. Currently i am trying to use interfaces to make a lot of this functionallity independend of the program using it but i hit a snag. The Basic idea is that a programmer will create his own object using the interface discribed in my .DLL file. Then implements those functions as he likes. He can then instanciate a controller (found in the same DLL) and sends his custom object implementing the interface to that Controller. The controller can then be started and will take over all the work. I do not know what type of object is send to the controller and idealy i want to program it in such a fashion that i shouldn't care as long as the object send implements that interface.In code I am trying to achieve the following: (quite simplyfied)
.Dll:
Code:
Public Interface MyInterface '<----Decleration of the interfaceFunction GetData() As Integer
Function SetData(Data As Integer)
end interface
[code]....
this propperly. I know that the second i set the interface adaptor in the Controller VS comes nagging that it can not be converted to a "MyInterface" Class. Obviously i am doing something wrong. I can change the datatype that the controller expects to the "MyController" type but that would completely ruin the whole idea of flexibillity. I am hoping someone sees what i am trying to do and can point out where i made the thinking error.
