I have a project in WPF 4 and vb.net 2010.
I have a canvas inside a window. The window is full screen, but the canvas is set to a solid 640x480 in the center of the window. I need to get the mouse position inside of the canvas, but NOT inside of the window. How do I do this?
Apologies as this has probably been answered a million different times a million different ways already. I'm trying to control the mouse. I wish to move the mouse to a given pixel position (x, y) and cause a click. I don't want this to be limited within a form, as I want to control another application. I'm using VB 2005.
View 4 RepliesI 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?
how to raise the mouse leave and mouse hover events for VB when i place my mouse cursor over the button.
When my mouse cursor is over the buttons, it will raise the mouse hover event and open the form, then when the mouse leaves the button, it will close the form upon raising the mouse leave event.
but currently, When i excute this two events, the for will open and close very,very fast. so fast that it is like spamming the VB.
So i am wondering how to change the code that i have to excecute the event one time every time the mouse is over the button which is created at run time.
the codes to execute these two events are:
Private Sub Button_MouseLeave(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
For Each ctl As Control In PictureBox1.Controls
[Code].....
[URL] I have tried heslacher's method which is Hi clzanas, you problems had been the result of calling a for each loop inside the events. If you only want for the button you hoover / leave to call the ShowDetails.Open/close, then you can take the code below:
Private Sub Button_MouseLeave(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
If TypeOf sender Is Button Then
ShowDetails.Close()
[code]....
But i got the same results as my previous code, resulting in the form opening and closing so fast that it is like spamming the window.
border of that said window so the only place the mouse can't click the titlebar and the minimize,restore, and maximize button. The height of the titlebar depends on what OS the user is using so I'm having trouble because I can't give a definite value for this. How do I detect the height. and also for border i'm not sure if the borders have different widths with different operating systems. I'm using windows XP on classic mode, when I change to the themed mode, the height of the title bar changes so it won't work.

View 6 RepliesI am using VB.NET and I am currently having a problem accurately reading the mouse position. In my code, whenever the user moves the mouse, I want to have two variables store the mouse position's X and Y value, however when I move the mouse over an object such as a picturebox or a label, it will no longer give me the value until I move the pointer off the object onto the form. Are there any methods that will give me the absolute mouse coordinates regardless of whether the mouse is over an object or not?
View 9 RepliesI wanna move mouse postioin(100, 100) on the form. So, I use SetCursorPos(100, 100). but, the position is not of the form. It's the position of My screen. I want to set mouse position 100, 100 of the form T_T.
Can I get the mouse position of the form?
Now I got this "problem"... I'm making an application in Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition with some mouse options, and I was wondering... Do some of you have a clue on how to make the mouse go to on position, right click, move somewhere else, and left click, and then repeat it a X amount of times? The X should have the options to change its value.
View 1 RepliesI have a label (mylabel1) control that is say size 200 by 200. I then add another label (mylabel2) to it as:
myform1.controls.add(mylabel2)
When the mouse enters mylabel1, I want to say change the backcolor as:
Private Sub mylabel1_MouseEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles mylabel1.MouseEnter
mylabel1.backcolor = color.red
[Code].....
this works fine except that when the mouse passes over mylabel2 which was added to the controls collection, it fires the mouseleave event for mylabel1. Is there a way to do this without having the mouseleave event of mylabel1 having to be checked against the mouseenter event of mylabel2??
I am ultimately going to have a parent container that has multiple children but I don't want the children to effect my changing colors and effects when the mouse has entered the parent.
I was wondering if there was some function in VB.Net that could change the mouse's position to a certain point, I found this code:
Code:
Declare Function SetCursorPos& Lib "user32" (ByVal p As Point)
'...
dim p as point
p.x = 100
[code]....
A simple example is: lets say that im trying to make a program that allows you to move the mouse only with the arrows (left/right/up/down) how can i change the position of the mouse on the screen programmatically? If i wanted when you press a button the mouse to change position to X=0,Y=0 of the hole screen/desktop not the window of the form how can i do it? [Code]

What im trying to do is when u have the mouse hold down you can drag the button to the position of your mouse, however all it does on mouse down is move it to the bottom right and if i keep click it will keep going down til its off the screen.
Im trying to make a drag drop styled interface for user customization.
Right now I have a program in which I'm trying to read the mouse cursor position relative to the window form, but I am currently having a problem. It only works if the mouse is directly over the form, and it will not work if I hold the mouse over an object, such as a label, a command button, or a picturebox. I tried resolving this by adding handle clauses for mousemove over those objects, however, while it works for the label, it doesn't work for the pictureboxes. This is because the pictureboxes are in an array and are defined at runtime.How would I go about resolving this?

View 1 RepliesI want to send a left down mouse click to a position I want how do I do that? I already got how to move the mouse
Cursor.Position = New Point(100, 100)
I just need the code to click.
If I do the mousedown event in my picturebox, is there a way to calculate the mouse position in relation to the picturebox itself, or will I have to calculate it from the X/Y of the mouse and the X/Y of the picturebox? I can do the latter, just wondering if there's a command for the former.
View 2 RepliesI know that you can use this code for the position.x of the mouse:
System.Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position.X
but how will i detect the position.x of the mouse inside the form? i mean counting 0,0 from the edge of the form not the screen...
I've used the search function but couldn't yield any solutions. Sorry if I didn't look hard enough. Anyway, it's just a quick question. How can I find the mouse cursor X and Y co-ordinates relative to the form itself and NOT the screen?
