i have a simple application where a user can drag "text" from a tree view to another application.is there a way to customize the cursor during the drag... i would llike to have a custom image or something that simulates what the user is really dragging [code]
I have a panel on an MDI form which is scrollable by the user with scroll bars. I would like to know if there is any way this could be modified so that the user could drag the panel with the cursor? If so, can you supply the correct event and code?
I'm trying to find a drag and drop cursor for use in a program. It is not in the standard Windows cursors. It's the one you see when moving a control in Visual Studio or when reordering slides in powerpoint - arrow with rectangle below.
Is there a way to create a custom cursor when doing a DnD operation? For example, if I'm dragging a button control I would like the cursor to look like a rectangle that is the same size as the button.
Working on a DragDrop application. I have a class object (built as an object) which has a GroupBox that is enabled for DragDrop.
In the class I have set it up so that the cursor will change when it enters the groupbox, leaves the groupbox, mouse is down within the groupbox and drag/drop is working. I also set up a label in the class object and changed the text in that label as well. Basically, the text changes in the label as expected including 'FEEDBACK' appearing when I am dragging the object BUT the cursor stays stubbornly as a pointer. This is tghe state of affairs either when I debug the class or when, after I build the class, it is run as part of the main program.
Here are the subs set up in the class.
Private Sub GroupBoxSourceMouseDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles GroupBoxSource.MouseDown GroupBoxSource.DoDragDrop(GroupBoxSource.Text, DragDropEffects.Copy)
I'm just curious how I get Windows to use the high quality cursor when dragging and dropping in my WPF application. What I mean by high quality is: Rather than the regular arrow with a rectangle. I tried using e.Effect but that didn't do anything... Am I doing something wrong? Or is this just how it is in WPF.
I need to drag and drop to textbox from tree view. Here while drag and drop to text box i need to add the dragged text to anywhere in the text box which we have already dragged some nodes here.
For example.in treeview i have "node1" and "node2"now i am going to add "node2" to textbox and in front of "node2" i need to add "node1" and then at the end of "node2" again i need to drop "node1" like that.
I need to draw several line-graphics on a form, then select and drag individual graphics to new locations. Is it possible for example to give each graphic path an identity when drawn, then select any one (via mousedown, whatever) and link it to the dragged mouse co-ordinates until released? MS Visio has exactly this ability - can it be done in .NET?
This VS010 solution is not providing my intended outcome as a custom override of a 'crosshair' or 'reticle' cursor e.Graphics.DrawPath() is the function that isn't working. This
WORKING solution demonstrates how it's supposed to work. The additonal PictureBox added to a Panel is, for reasons I don't understand, not allowing the 'new' cursor to appear.

I am using Excel 2007, VS2008 Pro.I am building a VSTO Add-in that requires "drag and drop from Excel cells to a drag-enabled task pane".So far I notice that I can only drag and drop within the cells themselves. It does not allow me to drop into the task Pane or drag past the sheet limits.(http:)[url]...
Note: The task pane has drag drop enabled, I ahve already tested I can drag/drop from task pane to excel but I need to do this the other way around?
I have a user control, and want to be able to update its cursor while it is disabled. For example, say that I have a user control whose cursor is Default. The below code works ONLY when the user control is already enabled; if it is disabled the below code doesn't work and the cursor remains Default: Me.MY_USER_CONTROL.Cursor = System.Windows.Forms.Cursors.WaitCursor
How can I set the curosr to 'cursor.wait' for the whole display screen and not just for the application form? I have tried "Windows.Forms.Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor" And several variations but without success.
I want more customization then the original VS 2010 set up files. So i decided to code everything. For example, i put all my files in my debug folder into my installer.vb's My.Resources. So i usedSystem.IO.File.WriteAllText ---> to install all my files and the .exe one.Everything was installed it except my Ethup Bolt New Build.exe. It shows up in the folder after installation, but when i click on it, it didnt run at all. (It showed up in the task manger, under process, but it disappeared after like 5secs.) So it didnt run at all. My question is how do i install my .exe properly. ( I DONT WANT TO USE THE ORIGINAL INSTALLER WITH Visual Studio)
I would like to change just a little bit the outlook of the form's top region in my application (the icon, bar, and controbox), is there any way to accomplish this without using third party components ?, I'd like to have my own Winform control that inherits from Windows.Forms.Form.[url]...
I've done a lot of work to customize the template for ContextMenu in my app, and it worked great as a "right-click" popup window.To my enormous surprise, when I wanted to add the same ContextMenu to a button to work as a kind of "drop-down" menu, it reverted back to the default template. It is really, really, weird, considering it's the exact same control I'm using, and when I right-click the button the template is the one I customized, but when I left-click it(and open it with ContextMenu.IsOpen = True) it uses the default template? I'm pretty baffled right now, and hope that this isn't one of the (many) quirks with WPF that will require me to write hundreds of lines of XML code to fix something that shouldn't even be an issue in the first place.
i'd like to customize the left side of the save file dialog boxes' folders. when you open the save file dialog, the folders located on the left. how do i change those since i've seen some programs open the save or open file dialog with their preset prefferences..so much work to do and so many choices to choose from...
is it possible to customize the properties of a form? for instance, i would like to start a new project, and have my form load center screen, not windows default location from the startup location, among many other options.if this is a possibility, from within vb.net, which i was not able to find and customize, do advise on how to do so.if i have to hack vb.net, i would not know where to start to do so, but how would i begin? what file do i need to modify in the program files folder of vb.net? this, by any means, i would not find it as a hack to destroy someone's work, but to better the software for the user.if a moderator reads this post , do consider my concern for customizing vb.net as vb.net customizes for the users..what i mean, is that, if this option is not available, mods, look into providing an update for vb.net to allow the customizing of the properties for forms/toolbox items and do reply to this thread w/a link.
unless vb 2o10 provides this option, which i doubt, and if it does and there are skins for vb.net 2o1o to change the tab look to the 2oo8 vb.net look, do not advise to look toward the 2o1o version.. personally, the 2o1o tabs are ridiculous, the font in the code window could have been the same as vb.net 2oo8 also.
How can I customize the user interface in Visual Basic .NET and is there stuff you cant do in Vb.net that you can in higherj level languages usch as Java and C and C++?
