    - Detect when owned form is brought to front? Sorry about the last post -- I hit Enter by accident... I have the following code ('this' is a non-MDI Form): Form form1 = new Form(); form1.Owner = this; form1.Show() Form form2 = new Form(); form2.Owner = this; form2.Show(); The behavior is that form1 and form2 are sort of child forms of 'this' form. When the above code is executed, form2 is in the front, and I'd like to check when the user clicks on form1 to bring it to the front. I guess I was assuming that this was the 'GotFocus' event but this does not work. Is there a 'ZOrderChange' event, or what is it? Thanks. Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82213

    - Visual C# Unable to alter size or position of form Hi I have this in a method which is called when my form is created public CreateDevice() { // Set the initial size of our form this.Top = 0; this.Left = 0; this.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(500,800); //this.ClientSize = new System.Drawing.Size(400,300); // And it's caption this.Text = "Rhubarb: CreateDevice"; // Load our icon from the resources of the .exe this.Icon = new Icon(this.GetType(), "directx.ico"); } the method is being called OK, because the forms text is being set to what ever I want it to be. But attempts to set the Top, Left or Size members are having no effect at all, the same with attempts to set the ClientSize member. I can resize the form by dragging, when it is running. I am completely new to C# so it may be something really dumb. Any ideas Kevin R. Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82208

    - How can I profile or check the performance of winforms hosted by IE? Hi, I'm working with "Smart Client" technology ... meaning I'm developing Winforms application embedded in IE. In my form, there are a bunch of controls and objects that connects to SQL DB Severs and to WebServices just like other rich client application. Smart client development process was really tough but had to ran through it. Since now debugging process is on its edge, I'm planning to optimize my Winforms application (embedded in IE). So...I wonder is there anyway to check the performance of "Smart Client". I just want to optimize my app's code to enhance performance. Especially I want to check the memory usage, cpu usage, time consumed, object created based on each line of code execution. Is this possible? Please consider this is unusual situation(winforms in IE). Any suggestion would be appreciated. TIA. :) Regards, Ryan Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82204

    - mdi client problems - second try In our app (VB) client forms are displayed based on what is on the current client form and the button pressed. A user never selects a client form. You can think of this process as filling out a very long form with many branches (e.g., IRS form 1040). Once a client form is loaded it is never unloaded - just hidden. I need help resolving these 2 problems: 1) Focus on a text box. I know i can't set the focus in the Load event but the Activated event only fires when the first client loads. Also, when the form is redisplayed (i.e., made visible) txtbox.focus, for example, doesn't work. What I do now is start a timer with a 10ms interval and set the focus in the timer event. I also think that sometimes when I leave the text box the Leave event doesn't always fire. There's got to be a better way. 2) Client form size. I would like the client form to be the maximum size that will fit in the MDI parent. The minimum size of the client forms is set to 720 X 540. If i set the WindowState to Maximized the first client is displayed maximized but all the others are displayed at their minimum size. When the first client form is redisplayed it is also displayed at the minimum size. This just drives the users crazy. What I've done is after showing the form the first time or making the form visible on redisplays I set the child.Dock = DockStyle.Fill. I also do this if the parent is resized. Now the client is almost maximum size except it still has its own margins. -- tsiGeorge Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82203

    - Problems Positioning Toolbars Hi I am self learning .VB .Net and have encountered a requirement that is not illustrated in any of my texts. I have three toolbars which can be present in any combination from 0-3 They are quite small and when there are two or three I would like the first pair to lie alongside each other I have been fiddling for ages with code to do this. The latest version is listed below. It always leaves three toolbars full width stacked vertically. I would be grateful for some advice on how to achieve this. Yours with thanks in anticipation Roger Stenson 'Current Code If (CurrentUser.UserStatus = "Authenticated") And (CurrentUser.UserLevel = "Administrator") Then 'Basic Toolbar tbrBasic.Visible = True tbrBasic.Enabled = True tbrBasic.Size = New Size(233, 16) tbrBasic.Location = New Point(0, 0) 'User Toolbar tbrUser.Visible = True tbrUser.Enabled = True tbrBasic.Size = New Size(233, 16) tbrUser.Location = New Point(224, 0) 'Administrator Toolbar tbrAdministrator.Visible = True tbrAdministrator.Enabled = True tbrBasic.Size = New Size(233, 16) tbrUser.Location = New Point(0, 17) Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82198

    - AfterCheck event for TreeView control Hi, I registered event handler to catch the AfterCheck event... myTreeView.AfterCheck += new TreeViewEventHandler(myTreeView_....); It works fine, however, if I set the checkbox as true or false programatically(I mean..in the code, somethinglike node.Checked = true...), aftercheck event wasn't fired. Of course, if I checked the checkbox by mouse or keyboard, the event was fired. However, again, programatically set checkbox didn't invoke the aftercheck event. Am I missing something? Any suggesion would be appreciated. Thanks. ...............................................TJ Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82197

    - Wrong Application Icon Task Switch I have a C# application with one and only one icon in the project. The icon is linked as the application icon in Project Properties and is also linked with each windows form. The icon is displayed properly on the desktop, in the task bar, and on the form itself. However, when you task switch (Alt+Tab) the icon is replaced with a generic icon. Why?

    - After form loads event Hi This question is probably one of the basic things but being a novice programmer in c# and .NET environment, I couldn't get to find the answer. I have a menu item in one form and need to create the context menu with tht menu item in another form. The first form becomes the parent form for the second form after the second form is loaded. So, I need to know what event could be used as load event is called when the form is still in the process of loading. Thanks Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82194

    - changing look and feel of an app I would like to know if there are any examples, tutorial on how to completely change an application's look and feel. By that I mean the colors, the way menus are drawn, the way tool bar items are spaced in a tool bar, the way tab identifiers are shaped, etc., etc. There are a few interesting 'LAFs' such as MS Money 2005, MSN Messenger 6.2, Office 2003...just to name a few basic ones. I would like to have one of my graphic designer friends do a mock up in photoshop then produce an application that looks like it (I'm assuming it all has to be done programatically so designers would have to resort to something like photoshop). I also understand that part of the reason the aforementioned applications look the way they do is because of controls which are not available publicly...despite that, if designer can create websites (with primitive components) that can draw powerful and diverse emotional reactions, I don't understand why rich client GUIs have to look so ugly and gray (obviously 'consistency' has its place too). Any way, it will be even better if someone can point me to publicly available LAFs, the way we are starting to see them for the Java/SWING community. Thanks!

    - View of ListControl Item I have a ListControl on a window where the text will get clipped. The user can not see the full text nor can he scroll to view it. Questions: 1) Is there a Windows "standard" that is used for a work around. 2) Is there a way to know which item the mouse is hovering over and put up a display in a tool tip type window. I can't find a way to access the Scollbar to find out the vertical scroll on the window. I would prefer to stay away from a Combo box look as the list control is for display purposes and is not used for selection. Thanks, Marc Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82185

    - Shortcut Key question (i.e. "&Submit") I have a Button on a WinForm that has a text property = "&Submit". I noticed that whenever I pressed the "S" key only (without pressing the "Alt" key) the Button's click event would fire. I thought that it was only supposed to fire if the combo "Alt+S" was pressed. My problem is that I have another control (a DataGrid) that is suppoed to respond to the "S" key being pressed and I don't want the Button's click event to be fired. I only want it to be fired if the combo "Alt+S" is pressed. Any suggestions? Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82167

    - A Bug in .NET Framework/Windows Forms Anyone who sees this We have been grappling with this problem ever since we ported to .NET. Microsoft says that MenuItem event handlers are not garbage collected, since they are not "closely tied" to the forms. Although they keep holding the refrence to the forms and it causes the forms to not dispose. So the user objects and GDI object counts keep riising. Apparantly they dont think its an issue and the users have to add handlers for menu item events and then remove the handlers manually. If anyone has come across this issue and know of any other solution besides Microsoft's then please post it. Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82166

    - ICustomTypeDescriptor.GetEditor - Which property am I on?? I have a class that will be edited via the CollectionEditor/CollectionForm UI. To that extent I have defined the various properties I want editable for my class. However, three of the properties are of type string but I would like them edited by selection from a dropdown list whose contents are determined at runtime. It looks like I might be able to use the ICustomTypeDescriptor interface to do what I need. In particular, if I could override the GetEditor method to create a specialized UITypeEditor for these three properties then I think this would do the trick. The only problem is that I cannot see how I know, when GetEditor is being invoked, which property it is being invoked for! Thanks, -- TB Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82165

    - CollectionEditor: How to specify arbitary list of values for prope I have a collection of items that I allow the user to edit by bringing up a CollectionEditor. The editor conveniently displays all the properties of my item class and works pretty well. However, I am changing one of the properties from being of an enumerated type to being a string value that should be set from a list of possible values determined at runtime. The enumerated value is automatically handled by the PropertyGrid as a dropdown list. How can I override this behavior to supply the list of allowed values at runtime? I have been successful at plugging in my own derivation of a UITypeEditor for this property but I cannot figure out how to supply the instantiated type editor the list of values to display in the dropdown.

    - Scrolling during a Drag Operation Hello all, I have a UserControl that is in a Panel. The Panel's AutoScroll is set to true. When the user drags data over the Panel and hits the edges, I want the control to scroll. I've managed to get this all to work. But I have a few questions: - Is there a standard distance from the edge of the window that the mouse should be before scrolling starts? - How much does one scroll each instance? I've tuned mine to match the speed of the machine I'm doing development work on... Obviously this may not work for others. And one technical question. To do the scrolling I adjust the AutoScrollPosition property while handling the OnDragOver event. If I do this every time the OnDragOver event is fired, my scroll bars move, but nothing is re-drawn (until the scroll bars go as far as they can). On the other hand, if I update the auto scroll position every other time OnDragOver is fired, then everything works as expected: the scroll bars move and the panel is updated. This seems odd, and I find no details on this in the documentation or in a search of the newsgroups. One other question. What is DragDropEeffects.Scroll used for? Is there any point to it? Or is it just there in case you want to change cursors. Finally -- I'm doing my scrolling in OnDragOver. Should I do it in GiveFeedback instead? I'm a little unclear how the framework expects me to seperate the tasks (currently, since I have no special cursors, I do implement GiveFeedback). Cheers, Gordon. Point mouseCurrent = PointToClient(new Point (drgevent.X, drgevent.Y)); /// /// Is it time to scroll (if possible)? Skip every other call to give /// the rest of the update framework a chance to catch up. /// //// _lastDidIt switches from true to false on each call, it is a method variable. int dragboarder = 20; int dragscrolldist = 5; if (mouseCurrent.Y > Height-dragboarder) { if (_lastDidIt) AutoScrollPosition = new Point (-AutoScrollPosition.X, -AutoScrollPosition.Y+dragscrolldist); } if (mouseCurrent.Y < dragboarder) { if (_lastDidIt) AutoScrollPosition = new Point (-AutoScrollPosition.X, -AutoScrollPosition.Y-dragscrolldist); } if (mouseCurrent.X > Width-dragboarder) { if (_lastDidIt) AutoScrollPosition = new Point (-AutoScrollPosition.X+dragscrolldist, -AutoScrollPosition.Y); } if (mouseCurrent.X < dragboarder) { if (_lastDidIt) AutoScrollPosition = new Point (-AutoScrollPosition.X-dragscrolldist, -AutoScrollPosition.Y); } _lastDidIt = !_lastDidIt; /// /// Make sure everything is re-drawn. /// Invalidate(); Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82150

    - Problem with databinding and RowChanging event I created a method to handle the RowChanging event to validate some data in a databound form. I am using BindingManagerBase.EndCurrentEdit to trigger the RowChanging event. If the data cannot be validated then an exception is raised in the RowChanging event and catched after the call to EndCurrentEdit. The problem I am having is that after calling EndCurrentEdit and raising the exception inside the RowChanging handler, the values in the controls in the form that are not modified again are not fetched again. For example... I have a form with 2 edit boxes which are data bound. Edit1 and Edit2. The original values for each are "mary" and "smith" respectively. If I modify Edit1 to contain "John" and call EndCurrentEdit, the RowChanging event is fired. If I check the Current version of the column it contains "Mary" and the proposed version contains "John". If I raise an exception within the event handler then the data is not saved to the dataset as expected. At this point I still have the edit boxes containing "John" and "Smith"... I am not calling CancelCurrentEdit because I don't want to roll back to the current values... I am simply letting the user know that the data entered is incorrect. If at this point I edit the Edit2 to "Roberts" and call the EndCurrentEdit method, the RowChanging event is fired... but if I check the proposed version of the Edit1 bound column, it contains the Current value "Mary" and NOT the value currently in Edit1. If the user does not edit the Edit1 control directly, the value is not reflected when EndCurrentEdit is called. Thanks, Jeronimo Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82147

    - Winform scrollbars and Maximize I have an MDI application that has 4 child windows. When my application opens, it initialially opens all of the forms un-maximized. When I then choose to maximize all of the windows and then in my code switch the app to one particular window, that one window does not appear maximized. Instead, I have to double-click on the title bar and then in the control box I see the option to maximize. Otherwise the control box shows what appears to have 'restore' capability. Not sure if this explaination makes sense. I have the autoscroll set to true on the window because the controls on the window go down farther than the height of the window. Is there something to do with the autoscroll that could be causing this behaviour? Thanks. STom Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82133

Here is how the constructors are setup: Base Control: public class MyBase : System.Windows.Forms.UserControl { [Browsable(false)] protected AnotherObject _oObject; [Browsable(false)] public AnotherObject oObject { get{ return _oObject; } set{ _oObject= value; } } public MyBase() { _oObject= new AnotherObject (); } public MyBase (AnotherObject oObject) { InitializeComponent(); _oObject= oObject; } } Derived Control: public class MyDerived: MyBase { public MyDerived(AnotherObject oObject) : base(oObject) { InitializeComponent(); } public MyDerived() : base() { } } Please help!

    - Prompt if changes for databinding Hi, I am writting a data navigator where if the user edits a form and tries to move to a different record on the dataset without saving the current record, he is prompted to save it before the BindingManagerBase position is changed. I created a navigator class that includes a dirtyRow flag to check when the user selects to move to a different record. I am trying to keep track of changes by adding events to TextChanged on the edit boxes of my form. If a textbox changes then the dirtyRow flag is set. However I am encountering some problems since the TextChanged event is also fired when text is changed due to the databinding for the control. I added an event for PositionChanged on the BindingManagerBase that sets dirtyRow to false and in general this works because when the position is changed, the databinding sets the dirtyRow to true on the TextChanged event but the PositionChanged event is called after the TextChanged event and therefore the newly visited row is not considered dirty until the user changes the text on the edit boxes. However this does not work the first time the form is created because in that particular case, the TextChanged event from the databinding is called AFTER the PositionChanged event. My question... 1- Is there any way of knowing IF the EndCurrentEdit will actually modify the underlying dataset? I noticed that RowState for a row changes to Modified after EndCurrentEdit if there are changes. I want to prompt the user to keep or save changes only if changes exist. 2- Is there an event that I can use to know that databinding for the form on the current position has completed so I can set the dirtyRow flag to false?

    - Tabbing Into a Custom DatagridColumnStyle at ColIndex(0) This is a duplicate post. I wanted to be sure to post in the managed group to take advantage of my subscription. Sorry for the initial mispost. JT Hello, I am literally banging my head against the wall trying to figure out how to use the tab key to move from the last column in a datagrid row to the first column in the next row when that first column is a Custom DataGridColumnStyle (in this case, as combobox). I have seen George Shepherd's suggestion on subclassing the embedded control, and have tried three different ways of doing this, as shown below. NONE of them work. I think I know why... After having tabbed through my datagrid, when I then look at the trace for "Debug.WriteLine(keyData.ToString)", I see Tab for every move I made from one column to the next ON THE SAME ROW. But when my tab key cause a new row to become current, my debug trace shows nothing at all. Question is, how to solve this problem. Can anyone enlighten me as to exactly how the datagrid moves to a new row in response to the tab key? Maybe if I can understand that, I can achieve what I am trying to achieve. Thanks.

    - Resource Files Hi All - Happy Holidays I'm struggling to understand how to make resource files work in a multi-lingual vb.net windows app - and feel real stupid. I've read MCSD books and Visual Studio Help articles, but just don't get it. Duh. The ResourceManager class and resource files within a project should be able to communicate. Any help or reference to examples greatly appreciated Regards, SC Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82104

    - Resizing a form by client height/width Hi, I just wonder if anyone can help me with this: I need to be able to resize a form by setting the size of its client area. Say, in Delphi i would do so: Form1.ClientHeight = 10; Form1.ClientWidth = 20; And the form will adjust its size so that client area will be as set. In .NET Form class there is a ClientRectangle property but it's read-only and trying to change any of it's properties causes a compile error: //----------------------------------------- Form1.cs(78): Cannot modify the return value of 'System.Windows.Forms.Control.ClientRectangle' because it is not a variable //----------------------------------------- Any ideas?

    - WindowEnumerator My application has regular document windows and floating windows above them. I want to iterate through all windows in z-order. I would have thought this capability would be built-in to the .net framework, but everything I can find on the archives says no - you need to use GetWindow(), thus: [DllImport("user32", EntryPoint="GetWindow")] private static extern int GetWindow(int hwnd, int wFlag); And the most logical thing seems to me to be to create a class that implements the IEnumerator interface. I suspect I need an additional external function - maybe GetTopWindow? to get a starting point; call that in .Reset() and GetWindow() in .MoveNext(). Am I on the right track? Can anyone provide examples of how to call these functions, eg what arguments to pass to them, how to coerce their result types into System.Windows.Forms, how to tell when I've reached the end? Thanks in advance. Peace, --Carl Tag: Check multiple radion buttons in panel Tag: 82096

I have a vb.net 1.1 winforms app and have several radio buttons in a panel
control. I want to be able to check several of the buttons at the same
time, but their behavior is that when I check one the other button becomes
unchecked so its not possible to have 2 checked at the same time. Is there
a way to work around this?

Thanks.

I would suggest one of two things:
(1) If the user is to be able to check multiple RadioButtons then use
CheckBoxes instead as the user might be confused since this goes against the
"normal" usage of this control.
(2) If you really must do this, place any RadioButtons that can be checked
at the same time in different Panels.
