Move Min, Max, And Close Buttons To Client Area?

Jan 2, 2011

I am working on a library of controls that clone Office 2010's Ribbon interface and theme. One of the controls will inherit the form control and will modify the ribbon to implement Aero Glass. This is what I have so far... In order to get the same look and feel, I've extended the aero glass margins exactly far enough to get this effect for the top 50 or so pixels. The ControlBox property is set to false, so that there's not an extra 30 pixels at the top that I don't do anything with, but now I need to get the

.net - MDI Child Form Does Not Activate When Clicked In Client Area?

Jul 29, 2010

My VB.NET app supports several kinds of MDI child forms. Some kinds, but not others, are 'troublesome' -- they cause the focus mechanism to become weird. Once a 'troublesome' child form has been opened, NONE of the MDI child forms will become activated unless I click on either the title bar or the border. Clicking in the client area does not activate the child form -- its title bar remains gray, and it does not receive Activate or GotFocus events. Strangely, however, the clicked-on form actually DOES receive the focus, because its controls receive mouse and key events. Only the Z-Order and the highlighting do not change.

Once this problem develops, it persists even after the 'troublesome' form is closed, and it affects child forms which are opened afterward. However, if ALL of the child forms are closed, the problem clears up, and new child forms behave normally -- until the next 'troublesome' form appears.

I have no idea why one kind of child form is troublesome, and others are not.

VB2008 Getting Client Area In Web Browser Control , WITHOUT Scroll Bars

Jun 18, 2009

What is the correct way to find the client area of the webbrowser control, WITHOUT the scroll bars ?

Any area/rectangle I get from the control seems to give me the entire control size, including scroll bars wether they are there or not.

I have tried detecting whether scroll bars are present and finding how wide they are to subtract from the entire control width, but have found no reliable way to acheive this.

I am trying to find the actual size of the window I can see if when the web browser control is showing the web page, not including the scroll bars.

MDI Parent Client Size Calculates Incorrectly?

May 4, 2010

[URL]...The link above is a thread showing the application I'm working on. (2008 Pro)I have since created an MDI Parent form which holds my 16 camera forms. What I am having trouble with is dividing the MDIParent's Width and Height by 4, to display 4 equal height/width camera forms within it.

I've tried all the available properties (Rectangle, ClientArea, etc) and none seem to calculate correctly.Using Me.Width and Me.Height ALMOST worked, but again, it was about an inch too skinny and short.

What do I need to do in order to retrieve the exact size of the MDIParent's Client Area?

Set The Viewable Area To A Smaller Screen Area?

Jun 11, 2012

Trying to set the viewable area to a smaller screen area and have it cycle through as the person moves using collision detection to move the backgroudn image. Here is the start but its off to a bad start so far.

Public Class Form1
Dim Mapx As Integer = 600
Dim Mapy As Integer = 2000

[code]....

Basically the forum size is set to 600x2000 but the client should only allow you to view 600x600. I want it to add +1 once you "collide with a invisable box I'll add and this will redraw the screen.

Asp.net - Export To Excel File As .zip To Reduce File Size - Compress Xmldata Before Sending It To The Client?

Jul 8, 2010

I like to compress the xmldata before the data is provided to the client as an excel file. I am trying to compress and deliver it as a .zip file. its not working Here's my code below. I tried compressing it, converting it to bytes etc etc. The issue with below code is, the XSL transformation is not happening properly and the output excel file is raw xml with some .net exception at the end. (that's what I see on the .xls file that's downloaded at the end) Before I started working on compression my below code was working fine that gives properly formatted excel file from the xml input. the excel file is so nice you can't even tell it was from XML.
