I am trying to make a form with a border like the border on the Windows Vista volume control. The form would need to be resizeable as well.
Here is a form with the ControlBox property set to false.
I have searched on this but I keep finding people trying to keep others from moving forms. And also nothing in the code bank.
Here is what I am making. I am making a tournament overlay program that tracks current players progress for shoutcasters (displays their name, race, score, color, ect).
I have a control panel that will change all that information on another form, the borderless one, that will "Always be on top" of the game displaying information.
If a form has its form border style set to None, how would you go about moving it?
I thought that this would work:
Private Sub Form1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles MyBase.MouseDown
Me.Location = MousePosition
End Sub
but it doesn't.
I want some help with a border less form! I want to move the form using the tab control's "backcolor" area like in Google Chrome.

View 2 RepliesI have been trying to make my own borders for my form, which worked out but wast like I expected, (I used an image and Formborderstyle = none). I have looked at other applications(like Internet Explorer and Google Chrome) when they are not maximized, the top part of the form which you usually cant edit(where there you put your application's title and the control box is). I mean those top parts are larger than those of normal applications, how can that be done? To be clear: with top part i mean: the part that is part of your system, where an icon, a label with the application's title, and the control box is. To be more clear, see the screenshot provided.
View 2 RepliesI want to create a software which have a Vista-like border style.

View 1 RepliesIs it possible to copy a control that is on the form but also runs off th the form because it is bigger than the form and screen? If I have the height and width of an area I want to copy that runs off the form, any way to grab it? The form will not be minimized and will be the focused program. When i click a button I want to do this. Either copy to clipboard or even just save as an image. I can even have the handle to the control if that is needed.

I have a problem in a vb.net windows application.I have a form with Sizable form border style. but i want to resize it only from TOP & BOTTOM. I have done the code for this.
But when i move the mouse on form's RIGHT & LEFT border, the mouse pointer gets changed to resize mode. When i drag it form size does not change. but when i try to resize it from LEFT whole form moved to LEFT. I do not need it.
i have created a splash screen by removing form border and importing an image to the picture box. also i have set a timer for 7 sec after which the splash screen will close itself and will open the MDI form.

I'm currently working on an application that I'd really like to be able to have a custom form border. I have it set up right now that the close, minimise and maximise buttons work, as well as moving it around. The issue however is that, although the movement is working, once it starts, it does not stop. So I can drag it around and it works perfectly, but if I want to stop dragging it around and click elsewhere, the form moves to the position from which it was being dragged.

How do I change the Form's Border color?
View 1 RepliesI need a check that will see the location of the edge of the form. An example would be (for what I am trying to do) is, when a form is moved, the main form will get bigger depending which border and which way the second form is going.So basically I need some way to make Form1 get bigger if Form2 is near the left border or near the bottom border.
*I have a mini system for making it grow(LocationChanged) on the form I want it to work for.
*I also know about ".left" and ".top",
I set my FormBorderStyle of my form to none.This is exactly what i want, except I ran into a problem.When the background is gray (background of other applications running in the background), my form tends to fade in with the background (Still active, but i cant see where my form starts or ends).
