Translate MouseEventArg.Location X,y Pixel Coordinates To Custom Grid Coordinates?
Nov 29, 2010
I want to translate MouseArgEvent.Location (x,y) coordinates into my custom graph coordinates. Mouse Y coordinates increase from top to bottom while my grid's y value increase from bottom to top. Given my following code, I would need to create 21,500 separate conditional expression for 100(y) x 215(x) possible coordinate locations for my grid.
Sub OnMouseMove(ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs)
If e.X > 48 AndAlso e.X < 50 AndAlso e.Y > 397 AndAlso e.Y < 399 Then
MessageBox.Show("about 0,0")
I am trying to build a coordinates system but am having trouble with how to.. What I have sofar is a textbox that allows the user to enter a length. This length is user defined but never smaller then 610 in length since this is the minimum unit size we use to build timber frames. The overall length of a timber frame is infinite (well not really, but it is for what I want) the timber frame has beams every 610mm set apart from each other (this is a legal requirement) so I want my vb.net to set coordinates for each beam at intervals of 610 then write that coordinates system to a text based *.SCR file
I am running a program that is connected through the internet and i gets disconnected at times.I wanted to know how this would be to examine a color of a pixel , If the colour turns changes, my mouse will move to reconnect it.
i want to locate specific coloured pixel on whole screen (if i set it to red then it should point cursor on the first red pixel that was found on screen)i managed to get cursor coordinates and pixel color of place where cursor is pointing, but i cant figure this out.
Develop a Company Logo application that allows users to draw shapes. The application should provide the user with RadioButtons to allow the selection of the next shape to be drawn. TextBoxes should be provided to allow the user to enter coordinates (X and Y coordinates) of the shape, the width and the height of the shapes. Users should also be able to change the shape�s colour.my question is how to allow the user to enter coordinates (X and Y coordinates) of the shape, the width and the height of the shapes and change the shape�s color from combo box. pro help
below is my code:
Public Class Form1 Dim mycolor As Color Dim mypen As Pen Dim mygraphics As Graphics
I have a form called main with 10 number of text boxes.my second small form called popup & I want to appear right corner of selected text box. Ex - when I click 1st text box, I want to appear the popup next to the firs text box, then I click 2nd text box I want to move popup to 2nd text box.
Im working with a DataGridView with an imported CSV file where the values are delimited with (,).. The grid works perfectly fine. My ultimate goal is to hide the grid out of view from the user and access the data in the grid based on the coordinates of the grid specified i.e (The cell in column 5, row 6 contains the value "Taco") and I want to save that value to a variable...Eventually I want to loop through all the values of a column and save them to individual variables to be later used. So far, this is what I have...
Dim sReader As New StreamReader("book1.csv") Dim Record() As String For x As Integer = 0 To 17[code]....
Presently, that will only display the data in column 0, row 0 in those labels...
Note: 17 in the for loop is the amount of columns in the data i provided.. that number will never change.
i am using an unbound datagridview so i can dynamiclly add rows. all that is working fine. but the grid is not is the location i have coded.. i am using the defualt form as a base then coding the unbound stuff in.. should i just create a blank class file and do everything? the only problem i am having is the grid must bees in the correct location according to the pixel point that i have given it. Right now it is placing the grid at point (0,0) no matter what point is entered on the line for location. so what am i missing??????
How can I get x and y coordinates of a control's location on a form relative to the Screens Top Left corner?
For example, if I have 3 labels on a form and I want label2 and label3 to display the x and y of label1 relative to the screens top and left corner.
When running the app, as the form's possition is changed label 2 and 3 update the coordinate of Label1's possition relative to the top left of the screen.

I have a control on a form - I need to know the coordinates of that control relative to the FORM.
Now before I get six replies saying, "Control.Location DUH!!" that only works when the control's parent IS the form. What if the control is nested inside one or more container controls?
Could I write a routine that crawls up all parent containers until I reach the form calculating each offset as I go? Sure! But this extremely crude operation seems clunky to me - What I'm looking for is something a little cleaner.
So far the closest I've been able to come is this: Dim ClientPoint As Point = Ctrl.PointToScreen(Ctrl.Location) Dim LocationLeft As Integer = (ClientPoint.X - Ctrl.ParentForm.Left) - Ctrl.Left Dim LocationTop As Integer = (ClientPoint.Y - Ctrl.ParentForm.Top) - Ctrl.Top
The problem with the above code is: It does NOT take the Form's border or Titlebar into consideration... so this calculated location would be off slightly depending on what kind of border the form has.
I'm just new with visual basic. I would like to ask a question regarding coordinates.. Suppose I have object lets say a button how do i get the coordinates of the button in the form? also I want to button to move given a particular path, example if i draw a vertical line, the button will follow the line and move vertically. how do i get the coordinates of starting and endpoints of the line?
How would I be able to get the X,Y coords of another programs top-left corner? I am trying to make a program that "attaches" to the top of a foreign program.
I am using the following to store the X Y cords Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick MyX = Me.Location.X MyY = Me.Location.Y My.Settings.Save() End Sub But the Me.Location.X or .Y are not detecting the forms position when I move it?
it is designed to be able to interact with foreground windows and display certain bits of information as each foreground window is displayed. The foreground window will most of the time NOT be a windows form so this makes things that bit more trickier for me. The program below doesn't produce any errors but the problem arises when I try and get the X, Y coordinates of the cursor, at the moment when ever the cursor is moved around I get a very long number as the X and nothing returned for my Y. I find I can set the X,Y coordinates to anywhere on the screen, can also get the foreground forms title,it's RECT coordinates but need to get the cursor info correctly.

I'm trying to assign coordinates to the buttons I dynamically placed on the board, so that I can use those coordinates to place bombs, numbers etc I tried a collection and an array but doesn't seem to work Attached is a picture of the game board, I have literally spent days on this.

I'm writting a small program to send data to another application.Have not probs with that, my only problem now is to get the coordinates relative to the screen of that application so I don't need to move it, when I start the application, or to avoid probs if the customer moves that application on the screen.Currently this is my code to find if the other application is running or not, and if running then move it to the left upper corner of the screen.

Is there any way to get the mouse coordinates on a control behind an another control.
The exact scenario is, I have a picture box of size 1024*1024 and and an another picture box of size 256*256 over the bigger picture box (of size 1024*1024). Now, when I move my mouse over smaller picture box, I want the mouse coordinates with respect to the bigger picture box behind the smaller picture box on which the mouse is moved.
I have an image that the user clicks on and I need to capture the X and Y coordinates of that click. This is what I have but it gives me the x and Y coordinates for wherever the mouse is located.
I am a complete n00b to VB. I was looking for a solution to get the coordinates for the users work area and the following on the net. However when i use it i get all values as 0
I'm sending a rtl text "Arabic" to a receipt printer. My problem is in selecting left and top coordinates for each line. If the paper width changes the whole procedure needs to be written for that specific width, because I'm measuring form the left edge. Is there a way in the printDocument object that flips the starting point from left to right?
p.s. the format string in the args.Graphics.DrawString() only select the direction of the printed string in case it has some numbers and symbols but it doesn't start the string from the right edge of the page.
