How can I resize the height of the listview when the user maximizes the form. I used custom controls and it does not work properly with the anchor property. Do any of you had an alternative code that acts just like the anchor property? I will also place buttons below the listview and I would want them to to automatically always stay below the listview.
What I want to do is setup a form to act like a control panel. When it loads I do not want it to be more than 94px in height but when the maximize button is pressed I would like it to expand the width of the screen. I was thinking I could do this with an "onload" event in the main form but not sure how to do it.
I created so many listviews in my project, that im too lazy to add to each listview a resize event with percentages. Is there any other trick, who just scales the columns so as they are?
My application uses a ListView control to display some data from a database, and I would like to make the height of the row bigger (it is in the 'Detail' view).As you can see the rows are quite slim and rather ugly :P And I can't find a way to change the height of them in the properties for the ListView.[code]Which I can imagine working in .NET (even though it's C#) but it is obviously very very hacky.
Im trying to resize a picturebox dynamically using .size.height and .size.width Its not working. This is the error message: "Expression is a value and therefore cannot be the target of an assignment." Never used height and width before. Been trying to find the answer, but it seems beyond me. Im sure its easy. Anyone know whats wrong with this?
My task for the moment is just to find out what the height of ListView's data row is (not the header--different height). The height of a ListView meant to fit exactly the contents of the list can't be set statically. This is because, when a system uses font scaling, the ListView rows are going to be scaled relative to the scaled font. So, I have to find out what the height of the first row is (since they're all the same height) and then multiply that by the number of items in the list. This should get me an exact fit for the height of the ListView.
I am converting my company's VB6 program over to VB.net and I have hit another stupid little roadblock.
The old program had a ListView docked to the left side of the application screen. The user could place the cursor over the right portion of the ListView, the cursor would turn into the SizeWE arrows, then they could drag it, which would resize the ListView.
I am trying to recreate this. As far as I can tell there is no Property called "Resizable," or at least nothing is popping out to me. I do not believe that it is being done in the code.
Is there a property I am missing? If not, is there an easy way to do this within the code? (ie. is there a event that would make my life easier)
I am using Visual Studio 2008.
Edit: I see how how it was done in the previous program (you always seem to find it once you ask the question, don't you?). The old program had a invisible picture that was only a few pixels wide that when hovered over would change the cursor to SizeWE. You could then drag that invisible picture and that would hit an event that would then change the size of the ListView. This seems rather convoluted. My question still stands: Is there a better way to handle this dragging and resizing?
I got a very simple question regarding resizing listview columns. I have a form with a listview anchored to it (top, bottom, left, right). The form is resizable and the user will be able to resize the listview columns manually. However, I need the listview to resize its columns automatically when the form is resized (especially when its maximized).
But, I don't want all the columns to resize, only the ones I choose. For example, the listview will have 6 columns in total (0-5). When the user resizes or maximizes the window, I need only columns 2 and 4 (or columns 3 and 5 or columns 1 and 5) to resize. Now, I have come up with two pieces of code as listed below.
Code Part A: The following code only resizes one column. When the form is maximized, only the column ID provided will resize and fill the rest of the control. It works perfectly but I need to be able to resize multiple columns (as explained above):
Public Sub lvResizeSingleCol(ByVal resizeColumn As Integer, ByVal listViewName As ListView) Dim w As Integer = 0 For column As Integer = 0 To listViewName.Columns.Count - 1 If column <> resizeColumn Then w += listViewName.Columns(column).Width [Code] .....
Assume the ListView1.Width is "30", then each column should be in event width of 10. Furthermore thereshould only be three columns becuase i have added only three columns. However, when i resize teh form, the listview controls shows an additional column.
How this was added? How do i fix this, so that when i add 3 columns it will have only three columns even when resized the form or not
Is is possible to do basic mathematical operations like addition, division etc. in XAML?For example, I want to set the height of a button to {Binding ElementName=MW,Path=Height}/2.
Imports System.IO Public Class Form3 Const IMAGE_DIRECTORY As String = "C:images" Dim files As String() = Directory.GetFiles(IMAGE_DIRECTORY) Dim max_length, i As Integer Dim s, fname As String
[Code]...
I simply want to have a list of all graphics saved in specified folder displayed as miniatures - this suppose to be a sort of an image browser - it does not have to be done using ListView, so I'm open to any suggestions.
I have a treeview and text box below it... is it easy or even possible to allow a user to change the height of the treeview which will automatically change the height of the textbox so there is no gap between them?ie one gets bigger the other gets smaller etc etc
Does anyone know if it is possible to resize an imagelist/listview image without repopulating the image list? I am using scroll bar to change the image size from 25 point to 256 point. When I leave the scroll bar the imagelist repopulates from the files list. This can be very slow when working with high resolution pictures. I don't want to limit the image size to 2 sizes by using large and small imagelist.
I'm starting work updating an UI for one of my company's applications and I'm running into a sticky issue. The parent control contains several panels, each of which can be turned on or off depending on user input.
The final panel in the user control contains another user control which gets resizes according to a toggle switch. Essentially, it "opens" up more information.
While the child control (ChildControl) is docked to Fill inside the parent control (ParentControl), when I add height to ChildControl I can't get ParentControl's height to get updated as well. Currently I'm handling the ChildControl.Layout event in ParentControl but I can't seem to reach that code. To resize ChildControl, I'm calling Me.Height += 200 in ChildControl.vb.
I am working in web application .My asp page has two div tag. Based on first one div height i want to fix height of second one div. First one div height is changing dynamically. So i want to get height of first div so that i can fix the height of second div.
I have a long string of text which i am appending to PDF document.
But im having problems trying to find out exactly how many "lines" the text will produce.
I currently have the PDF,s width to work with , But im wondering if anyone would know how i can use this to calculate how many "lines" a long string would need?[code]....
I have to Panels on a Form. The "upper" Panel is set to Dock = Fill the second "down" Panel is set to Dock = Bottom
Ok. - During the application I add some usercontrols in to the "down" Panel.
Now in one of the usercontrols, I have two group boxes (also set to Fill & Bottom) In the upper groupbox (Dockstyle = Fill) There is a Grid and below the grid, I have two RadioButtons.
On my developer machine, I can see the Grid and the Radiobuttons. On an other machine (other resolution, and other Display), I have the problem that, the RadioButtons are not visible anymore. - The user has to change the height of the "down" Panel by hand, so he can see the RadioButtons.
What I try to do now (and I don't get it working) is: Set the minimum heigt of the "down" Panel so, that both Groupboxes are visible and what is more important: that the commands are all visible.
calculate the height of the grid and the Radiobuttons depending of the solution and used display!?
