I am using 2010 express, and when I try to use it to open a program that I had made with 2008, it will open and it will allow me to debug the program, but neither the designer nor the code will show. It is just an empty space in the middle of the screen.
View 8 Repliesif you guys have used office 2003 or better( i am sure all) then you would have seen that when the help window open it causes the active windows say of MS WORD to change accordingly so that this help windows fits with it along the right side and this functionality i want to implement in my VB windows application and have no idea how to do it Also i have seen this feature in GOOGLE DESKTOP GADGETS...
i want to implement that when my application opens which ever is the active window( of any application) snaps to the left and allows my application to fir in the right hand side i am developing my application in VS 2005 using Visual Basic.
Currently I have the following VB.NET code to make a screenshot of my desktop, but it only takes a picture of the active screen:
Public Function SaveScreen(ByVal theFile As String) As Boolean
Try
SendKeys.Send("%{PRTSC}")[code].....
The following code is how I execute the above function, if it makes any difference, which I don't think it does:
SaveScreen("C:Lexer_tracescreen.png")
Now, I need to be able to take a picture of the entire screen, not just the focused window.
I send a message a while ago and no one answerd, how can I draw directly on the screen (not on a specific window) just on the screen, neither if it's on the desktop or anything else.Is there is any option to bring up the switch between applications window (Alt + Tab), I don't want to use sendkeys because the user need to keep the key down and I just want the user to select the application with his mouse.

Okay so here's the question how do I get the links that open in a new window to open in my main webbrowser control. The above code does some, but it's not fool proof.
I like to open a file. The open option should be shown in a separate window. My code works fine but the open window is not displaying to open a file. Here is the code:
private void OpenMyFile()
{
string path = GetPath() + ViewState["fileopen"];

View 2 RepliesI found that code somewhere and I find it quite useful but I would like to find a way to make it work so it capture only the given window target. Maybe with a processID or Window Name. Even if that window is not active. I do not want to make that window active but want to get a screen capture like if I was doing Alt+PrintScreen on it.

I am looking for some code that can move my window around when I click on the top of my program. At the top of any program there is a bar that you can click on when the window is not in Full Screen mode. When you click on the bar you can move the program.
View 10 RepliesI did a search on capturing screen shots in vb.net amd I was wondering if there is a straight forward way to capture the active window? Or do I need to first get the handle of the active window, get the position and size and then capture it? I do not want to use any type of sendkeys method or use the clipboard. I want to save it to jpg format.
View 3 RepliesI want to know how to change the form to well another screen. Example:In the popular mcdonalds flash game you can scroll through varius screens such as the restaurant, the farm, etc. You can still play the game though and it's not just a picture. Another example would be a pause/menu screen where you could interact with it. Could I use more than one form but when they play the game they can only see the first one? Then when a certain event happens it changes to the other form or something?

I problem is when the message window is thrown it is displayed just behind the splashscreen and user is not able to see the message and unable to understand whats happening while the SplashScreen is displayed as it is till he clicks ok on the message box.
View 13 RepliesI have a bit of an issue here. I made a "Colour picker" dialog in my program with which you can pick the colour at the mouse. It is a simple topmost form with an OnPaint handler used to draw a coloured border around the cursor:
It uses a transparency key to make the non-drawn parts of the form transparent.
It uses the following code to prevent the mouse from clicking through the screen:
Window.FromControl(Me).ExStyle(Window.ExStyles.Layered) = True
Window.FromControl(Me).ExStyle(Window.ExStyles.Transparent) = False
It sets Layered to True and Transparent to False. This works in Windows 7, but on a XP machine it fails. When moving the mouse the event does not go to the forms' event handler and you can just click through. For a screen region selector I simply made a screenshot, but I want the Colour Picker to remain updated. (just in case you want to get the colour of an animated control)
How can I get this to work on a Windows XP machine?
Okay: I've been searching the threads and MSDN and elsewhere and either its not there or I am simply not understanding what I am finding.I have an image which at full resolution is larger than my screen (actually it is larger than any screen). I want to be able to look at parts of it at full resolution in a client area that is the size of the entire image at full res; that is, I want the window to exist without any scroll bars and want to be able to examine different parts of the image by repositioning the window on the desktop.
In general, I've run into trouble insofar as windows (or maybe VB) won't let me make my window any larger than my operative desktop (although interestingly it will let me place the window to the North-West of my visible screen). What it won't let me do so far is to grow my window any larger than my desktop.
So far I have noodled a couple of different possibilities, in descending order of preference:
(1) Find some way to exempt my window from the limitation that it be smaller than the desktop;
(2) Virtually increase the size of my desktop so that it is as large or larger than my image (i.e., find some way of exempting my desktop from the limitation that the desktop represent the dimensions of the screen/monitor -- understanding that those two are not the same);
(3) Simulate a multi-monitor configuration (I'll probably need at least four); or
(4) Actually configure my system for four+ monitors (I don't even know whether that's possible, but its certainly not my first choice).
Does any one have any other ideas or suggestions as to how I ought to proceed?[URL]..
What code in VB.net 2010 do I need to set a window to come to the front of the screen. What I am trying to achieve is to display an urgent alert type, its a form, for certain reasons I am not using message box.
Following code does not work:
Private Sub frmMessage_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Me.BringToFront()
End Sub
I want to show my app form over the full screen game windows without minimizing the game window (Like a pop-up window). I have tried a few APIs (BringWindowToTop, SetWindowPosition and SetForegroundWindow). But they didn't work for me.
