I have two forms: Main and Options.Main can be moved around the screen (like a normal window).When the user clicks a button, the Options form opens up and the Main form HIDES.How do I set the Options form to open in the exact place that the Main form was last on the screen (to give it the effect the MAIN form never went into hidding)I was thinking to set Option form's StartPosition to Main's current position, but I don't know the syntax for that or if it's even something you can do.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to set hotkeys for all my favorite websites. When one of these hotkeys are pressed, I want it to load the assigned website in internet explorer, but I want internet explorer to load on my SECONDARY monitor. I've already set out the hotkeys to load internet explorer, but it loads on the wrong screen. How to check if an instance of IE is already running. To be a bit more specific: the secondary monitor is set to the LEFT of the primary one. And the resolution is at 1440 x 900. So basically, I want to programmatically set IE's position to (-1440, 0) from within my application itself.

View 3 RepliesI am trying to make a program that allows me to operate a program while I am not around (kind of like a bot) because I need to move alot of things and do the same motion over and over.
So in my program's settings I have made a form that is transparent that I want to set my working area with (i wont be resizing the form, it's size is "975, 575") and save the forms Top, Left, Bottom, Right positions so I can create a macro for my mouse to click.
how to save a forms position on the screen? So I can use it to set a working area?
I just want to save its current location to 4 variables
I have looking for a tutorial or class that demonstrates more than a trivial example of saving a windows position on closing. The ones I have found don't seem to work on all systems because of:
1. Multiple monitors. (and resolution between those monitors)
2. Toolbar size and position (toolbar is only on the primary monitor, well sometimes)
3. Sometimes the programs dont open on the right monitor they were closed on.
Is there an extensive class or tutorial on all the stuff a programmer needs to get right to have a window size and position persisted between executions?
I am using the following code to populate data in Textbox1:
[Code]...
I have few functions assigned in TextBox1_TextChanged event. The problem i am facing is this event is fired twice, once after the Fill command and another after the Position command whereas i want the event to fire only once after the Position command. What should i do?
I want to know is parent of ToolStripMenuItem a MenuStrip or not?

View 5 RepliesI have a custom toolstrip renderer, which works perfect. But I want to change the forecolor of the toolstripmenuitems too. How can I achieve this?This code should be completed:
Public Class mymenu
Inherits Windows.Forms.MenuStrip
Public Sub New()[code]......
Below is the code that is adding a toolstripmenuitem at runtime. I do need to check elsewhere to see if it exists. What I have below is incorrect. How would I change the conditional check below?
ToolStripMenuItemFile.DropDownItems.Add("Save")
ToolStripMenuItemFile.DropDownItems(2).Click += New EventHandler(SaveFile_Click)
If ToolStripMenuItemFile.DropDownItems(2) IsNot Nothing Then
ToolStripMenuItemFile.DropDownItems(2).Text = rm.GetString("Save")
End If
I want my program to detect and do something when ToolStripMenuItem is clicked.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to find a way to set the color of my toolstripmenuitems on form_load. Been trying something like:
For Each menu As ToolStripMenuItem In Me.Controls
menu.BackColor = clr

I know that Me.Controls is probably wrong, can't find a proper way though.
I have this:
For Each oToolStripMenuItem As ToolStripMenuItem In oToolStripMenuItemMain.DropDownItems

First line produces an exception because it runs into a ToolStripSeparator. How to modify this loop so it won't?
I am having trouble figuring out a way to add click events to ToolStripMenuItems generated off data from a ListView object.In short, i have a ToolStripButton called 'View', in that i have a ToolStripMenuItem called 'Group'- What i have already accomplished is adding sub-items to the 'Group' ToolStripMenuButton. These items are based of ListViewGroups inside of my ListView.
Here is the code for what i've done so far:
Code:
Private Sub ToolStripButton3_MouseEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ToolStripButton3.MouseEnter
'LOAD GROUPS INTO MENU LIST
GroupToolStripMenuItem2.DropDownItems.Clear()
[code]....
As you can see, this will generate a ToolStripMenuItem inside the 'Group' ToolStripMenuItem for each group that is located inside my ListView- as well as add a constant ToolStripMenuItem, 'All', for viewing all groups again.What i am unsure on how to do is program in the OnClick Event for each of the generated ToolStripMenuItems?
I have in a menu a ToolStripTextBox where the user can enter a CASE NUMBER to FIND. And I have a ToolStripMenuItem below that says QUICK FIND - clicking this will find the case you put in the textbox. Tabbing out of the textbox puts you at this TOOLSTRIPMENUITEM so that ENTER on the keyboard will trigger the FIND. I want to make it so that pressing ENTER while still in the textbox will trigger that same TOOLSTRIPMENUITEM action. Do I have to trap keypresses or is there a more natural way to accomplish this?
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to do MVP where I have a view specific model that the presenter manipulates and the view binds to. There is no other connection between the presenter and view (the view fires off commands to the domain model via a gateway type pattern).
As you can guess, this makes the ability to bind to any property of any object really important.
I'm having trouble finding the correct way to bind to the Enabled property of a ToolStripMenuItem. Most controls have a .DataBindings property, but this one seems to lack it. I haven't found much info online about how to do this. Is it even possible?
I have single ContextMenuStrip attached to more controls.In use the Opening event of ContextMenuStrip to filter/disable some context entries.In this case the property ContexteMenuStrip.SourceControl is set correctly.The problem I have is on the Click event of a ToolStripMenuItem. This item is inside a ToolStripDropDown. I get the parent item with code:
Dim tsmi As ToolStripMenuItem = DirectCast(DirectCast(DirectCast(sender, ToolStripMenuItem).Owner, ToolStripDropDown).OwnerItem, ToolStripMenuItem)
[Code]...
How do you change the color of a toolstripmenuItem when it is selected?
When Clicked on to open up the drop down menu.
I can change the Background for everything else, but when I click on the toolstripmenuItem the dropdown shows up correctly but the MenuItem changes to an incorrect color.
I understand that Checked is a boolean, which is not the case of CheckState.I understand that CheckState also have a undeterminate possible value.But I don't understand why we have them both. I think that CheckState would be sufficient. What is the need for Checked ?
View 10 RepliesI have a context menu attached to a panel, that should mirror commands available in a toolbar menu.Currently in my MouseUp event, I set the enabled state of the MenuItems, and add them to the context menu:
ctxMnuLinks.Items.Clear()
ctxMnuLinks.Items.Add(mnuLinksOpen)
ctxMnuLinks.Items.Add(New ToolStripSeparator)

So I have a ToolStrip menu item "New", when pressed it creates an MDI child window and adds new toolstrip menu item to the parent window and when clicked it focuses on the window I created before, so I could easly navigate if I have loads of windows. This code perfectly works in VS2008:
Private Sub NewToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles NewToolStripMenuItem.Click
Dim frm As New Form()
Static ic As New Integer
ic += 1

I'm developing an application which is having Menustips with few elements. My structure is as follows;

I set the visibility in each leaf element as per the permission given in DB. But I want to set visibility=false in case all the leaf elements are set to false.
e.g If POS interface and Backoffice Interface are set to False, Then I need to hide the Parent (Interfaces) too.
here is what i want to do have a ToolStripMenuItem in a ToolStripDropDownButton menu what i want to do is have an option to not hide the menu when the ToolStripMenuItem is clicked so i wrote the following:

I had a lengthy subroutine with handler routines, like this, before:
Private Sub CompMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles _
ToolStripMenuItem3.Click, ToolStripMenuItem4.Click, ToolStripMenuItem5.Click,
[code].....
I want my program to detect and do something when ToolStripMenuItem is clicked.
