    - Listbox captures focus This is very strange... I have a simple UserControl based on a System.Windows.Form. I have a databound listbox on the form, along with two radio buttons which aren't bound to anything. If I launch the form, everything is clickable. If I launch the form and navigate to any record in the listbox, I can no longer click any other control, except to close the form with the control box. None of the radio buttons are accessible. The visual feedback shows a click is occuring, but the click event doesn't fire, and despite autoCheck being enabled, the state doesn't toggle. This seems to be related to the databinding... but I can't imagine how. Anyone? Tag: NativeWindow.OnShutdown is causing a StackOverflowException Tag: 113636

    - Get FileType Using System.IO, is there any way, using FileInfo or any other way, to tell what filetype the file is? In other words, if I have a group of files, and I want to do something with only .doc file, can I do this using the System.IO class, or am I just stuck with checking the last three characters of the filename (with substring)?

    - custom control focus Hello, I made a custom control which derives from UserControl, which handles mouse input (e.g., rotates an object) when the mouse moves. I am handling the OnMouseDown, OnMouseUp, OnMouseWheel, OnMouseMove functions. When I click on my control, it doesn't seem to get focus however, which is preventing me from getting mouse wheel input. If I use tab, I can get my control in focus and then it receives mouse wheel focus. How can I make my control have focus when the user clicks it?

    - restore from maximize When I maximize a form, it sends a resize event, which I handle. However, when I click the restore box on the form's frame, it restores the window dimensions (physically) but my resize code is not executed. I can tell it is not being called because my resize code calculates the center to display some output. What am I doing wrong? It only fails to work when I "restore down" from maximize.

    - control naming conventions, When I drag a control onto a form, visual studio gives it a dummy name. I'm wondering, what are good naming conventions you use for controls? I like to indicate the control type: for example, "submitButton" or "showResultCheckBox". Although I find this cumbersome sometimes. Also, I notice that in C#/.NET code, the m_ prefix for member variables is no longer popular, as it was in MFC. Do people use any notation to denote member variables in C#/.NET? I don't like to confuse them with local variables. Maybe it is popular to explicitly reference "this"? Tag: NativeWindow.OnShutdown is causing a StackOverflowException Tag: 113618

    - flicker in control I have made a custom control which displays a 3D object. The user can use the mouse to animate the object. However, I am getting bad flicker from the control. I call Invalidate in the mouse move handler to animate the object. I think the problem is the control repaints itself and then I draw over that myself, so it gets painted twice causing the flicker. In Win32 I would use a null brush or handle the WM_ERASEBKGND message to prevent this. Is there a flag I can set in the control to let it know I will do all the drawing?

    - Problems using CellFormatting event in DataGridView I'm writing a Winforms program in VB/Dot Net 2.0. I have a datagridview with 3 unbound fields that are filled in by the CellFormatting event handler, based on lookups using values of 3 other fields in the datagrid. Actually nothing is specifically 'wrong' but I'm wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions to improve it. First of all, performance could be better although I suspect this is in part due to a rather slow network. Any alternatives to or tweaks on CellFormatting that I might be forgetting? The actual lookup code is fairly simple. Second, I wonder if I'm making assumptions based on the old grid. I would like to hide the columns holding the lookup keys but I find if I set Visible to False, the lookup fails. The best I can do is wipe out the header text and set the column width to 2. Any ideas? Tag: NativeWindow.OnShutdown is causing a StackOverflowException Tag: 113607

    - Webbrowser-Control / Picture resizing Hi, we're using WebbrowserControl to show different documents like pictures, movies, word-Docs etc. Showing pictures in big resolution like 3048*2000 the webbrowser control shows only a small part of the pic (size of the webbrowser control). The IE has an option to resize pictures to visible browser. How can I perform this with the webbrowser Control? To resize the pics before showing isn't a good idea - or is it the only way? Thanks !

    - Clearing a dialog box to create a new record - suspend binding? Hello, I have a dialog box in which the user edits records. (The main form has a datagridview which displays all the records. The user normally selects the desired record and opens a dialog to edit that record.) There is also a [New Record] button on the dialog box which allows the user to create a new record. What steps must I go thorugh, with respect to the binidng, to perform this? Do I have to suspend binding, then empty the controls, then restore the binding? Please clarify all the general the steps for me. BTW the underlying table is not a child of another table so other IDs are not involved.

    - Help with form painting performance (and background images) Hello, I have a UI that I would like to build using .NET 2.0 Windows Forms. This application uses a fair number of background images & Iâ??ve found that UI performance is not very crisp, with visible repainting of the form when resizing & restore/minimize occurs. Iâ??m looking for suggestions on how to improve UI performance of the application (short of removing the background images, which does help a lot). The original application was built with a mix of .NET 2.0 Windows Form controls, DotNetMagic controls, and a few custom controls. Iâ??ve stripped out the DotNetMagic controls and the custom controls, and the performance is roughly the same. The application, which at this point is only a mockup, contains a few tabsets, some groupboxes, a number of panels, a split container, several buttons, several text boxes & quite a few combo boxes. Most of the container controls (the form itself, the various panels, the tab pages, the group boxes) have background images set, and many of the other controls that donâ??t have an explicit background image set have their BackColor property set to Transparent. At this point, what Iâ??ve tried in terms of improving performance is to ensure the BackgroundImageLayout property on all controls with a BackgroundImage set uses Stretch rather than Tile. Iâ??ve seen a few articles that suggest premultiplying images with transparency into a bitmap file should improve performance, so I tried that. For example, hereâ??s what I did for the form: public class RForm: Form { private Bitmap _renderBmp; public override Image BackgroundImage { set { Image baseImage = value; if (_renderBmp != null) _renderBmp.Dispose(); _renderBmp = new Bitmap(this.Width, this.Height, System.Drawing.Imaging.PixelFormat.Format32bppPArgb); Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(_renderBmp); g.DrawImage(baseImage, 0, 0, Width, Height); g.Dispose(); } get { return _renderBmp; } } } I replaced System.Windows.Forms.Form with my RForm class in the form.designer file. I did the same thing for the GroupBox, Panel, & TabPage controls. I didnâ??t find any really noticeable performance improvement. Outside of the image multiplication trick above and avoiding a BackgroundImageLayout setting of Tile, thereâ??s nothing Iâ??ve done to the vanilla Win Form app. As this is a mockup, itâ??s very simple: there is no data access, nor data binding (thereâ??s no data), nor network latency issues (everything is local), the form is not set to localizable, it was built using the VS form designer, so SuspendLayout/ResumeLayout are called appropriately as the form is built. Can anyone suggest anything else I might try? Iâ??ve placed my sample VS 2005 project (does not include code that overrides BackgroundImage properties to premultiply image), along with all the images, at this URL - http://www.geocities.com/notre_poubelle/FullUITest_SlowChromeNoDotNetMagic.zip - for anyone who wants to try to speed up the performance. The slow performance can be particularly noted in two scenarios: 1. Start the app. Minimize the app & restore the app a few times. Watch the form, particularly the groups boxes (and to a lesser extent the tab pages). Please also take note of the buttons on the panel below the menu strip (the IE7 looking buttons) and the Tab control immediately below that. 2. Resize the width of the form (make it about Â½ the default size, then resize to full size; repeat); you will notice quite a bit of flicker near the vertical bar that separates the panels in the split container control (i.e. the white panel on the left and the large panel containing the â??Contact Formâ??). I would like to explore all options to improve performance (Iâ??m looking at simplifying the form as a last resort option). I would like to attain the performance of unmanged apps, if possible when restore/minimize occurs or the main app window is resized. Although Iâ??d like to improve the actual performance, if I can improve the perceived performance (e.g. by not drawing the form somehow until everything is done), I would interested in suggestions in that way as well.

    - Dataset problem with column named "System" The customer has a database with a column in a table named "System". I've been using this method for years now - create a dataset (an .xsd file) for the table. With a column named "System" in the dataset, it gives a substantial number of compile errors. To simplify the problem, add a Dataset with one table and one column called "System" - below follows how it can be done: Right click on the solution, click "Add", click "New Item" and then "DataSet" and DataSet1 is OK for the name. On the design sheet of DataSet1.xsd, right click. click "Add" and click "DataTable". Right click on the DataTable and click "Add" and click "Column". Rename the column from "Column1" to "System". Build the project = compile errors. Note that renaming the column to "[System]" rather than "System" does not work either. Tag: NativeWindow.OnShutdown is causing a StackOverflowException Tag: 113573

    - UI Updating Hi My Windows Forms applications consists of a listview control containing of approximately 1000 items, and a worker thread that performs a lot of execution. After performing some portion of execution I update the main UI by using a delegate on the main form to call an update function on the GUI thread. However, under times of high load my GUI seems to struggle to apply the updates requested, and portions of the screen (other buttons etc) are not repainted when I resize the window. Does anyone have any ideas how I can improve the responsiveness of the main window. It is important the list view is updated as execution in the worker thread requires, whilst at the same time the remainder of the window needs to stay responsive. Thanks in advance.

    - public shared object... and disappearing xml content in file I have two issues that I want to deal with... I am new to windows programming (I usually do web...) I want to create a class which, is instantiated and then available to all forms. I assume this is public shared... (similar to Java). I also assume I have to instantiate it BEFORE the first form unless I want all other forms to have to call it by form1.obj.... (which I don't). How can I create a 'main' or some such, that will be executed before the vb.net form1? Can I then just dimension my object as : Public Shared {name} as new {class name}. ****** Second, I intend this object to have in it a dataset which is globally available. It is created from an xml file stored on disk. Currently I instantiate my public shared item from form 1. In the 'new' sub of the class I have a readxml command to read the xml file into a dataset belonging to my object. When form1 is closed, I write the XML to the drive. Currently I can write the xml correctly, but as soon as I re-start the application the xml file gets over-written as a blank xml file. (I don't like that and don't want that...) Here is what the code looks like: My public shared object is called AppValues Public Class AppValues Public Shared ds As New WhatsRunning 'WhatsRunning is a xsd file Public Sub New() Try ds.ReadXml("WhatsRunning.xml") Catch ex As Exception End Try If ds.Tables("WebPages") Is Nothing Then Dim dt1 As New WhatsRunning.WebPagesDataTable ds.Tables.Add(dt1) End If End Sub End Class From Form 1 I have snipped the following: Public Class Form1 Public Shared AV As New AppValues Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click <snip - this is code that I use to get the data and insert values into a row in the 'WebPages" table of AppValues.ds it works fine End Sub Private Sub Form1_Close(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Disposed AV.ds.WriteXml("WhatsRunning.xml") 'This code is used to write the XML when the form closes.

    - Forcing Refresh of MDI Child Window Menu? Is there a way to force a refresh of the Window menu area that lists all of the MDI child windows that are available within a forms application? The reason I ask is because within my application I am giving the users the ability to subtitle the currently active MDI Child window. When they specify the subtitle, it appends that text to the name of the current MDI Child window. This part works fine but the Window menu that lists the currently open MDI Child windows does NOT refresh to show the new window title for the current window until the user changes the active MDI Child to a different window. At that point, the menu listing updates to reflect the new full title of the previously subtitled child window. I was looking for a way to force that list to refresh and grab the most current title for each window. Thanks for any help that can be provided.

When I place my usercontrol on a form, the designer gives me a conversion error : Unable to convert object type 'System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.Int64,DemoPrimHeure.AssignmentDetailCtrl]' into 'System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.Int64,DemoPrimHeure.AssignmentDetailCtrl]'. This property is intended to be used at runtime only. Not at designtime. How do I tell VS2005 to not include my property into the designer code since it assigns an instance to it with the following statement : CType(resources.GetObject("grdEmp.ListOfAssignDetailCtrls"), System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary(Of Long, DemoPrimHeure.AssignmentDetailCtrl)) which gives me a designer exception.

    - Main Form Display Loading I have an application with a main form that retrieves data from 4 large datasets. As each of the datasets is filled, the corresponding control is displayed. The controls are displaying 1 at a time as each is loaded -- this looks funny. Is there a way to suspend the updating of the main screen until all 4 controls are loaded and then display the form with all the forms? I have a splash-like screen to cover the delay but it would look better to hold the display. Thanks Tag: NativeWindow.OnShutdown is causing a StackOverflowException Tag: 113527

    - Datagridview value translate Hi everyone. I have the following problem. I have a datagridview which is binded to a datasource (datatable). I would like to know how can I translate the values of a column which the data are numbers (1, 2 and 3) into something more meaningful like a string. For instance If the value is 1 I want to make the cell write "Room" If the value is 2 I want to make the cell write "Suite" Thanks George Tag: NativeWindow.OnShutdown is causing a StackOverflowException Tag: 113521

    - DataGridView Changing Cell Color I want to change the cell color of a specific cell without going through an event. I tried using: this.datagrid.Rows[0].Cells[0].InheritedStyle.BackColor = Color.LightGray; but InheritedStyle doesn't seem to do it.

    - Moving controls in TableLayoutPanel I setup a main TableLayoutPanel, with controls and child Table/FlowLayoutPanels. I now need to add a row to the top of the main TableLayoutPanel. This does not seem to be an easy thing to do, and in fact it doesn't seem possible without starting from scratch. Since I can't tell the editor that I want to insert the row at the top, I have to move all the existing controls down one row. But, the IDE won't let me do this, dragging doesn't work and cut and paste pastes the control into an arbitrary cell, not the cell my mouse is on. Does anyone have a solution for this?

    - Good C# Forms resource? Does anybody know a good book (or other resource) that will help me learn the .NET classes/interfaces so that I can get a better understanding of windows forms? I am not looking for a basic book, but rather something that will help me create more advanced forms. I find myself getting lost in some of the details when I search for ways to do something that takes a lot of customizations. Also, anything for printing? Thanks in advance, Ryan Tag: NativeWindow.OnShutdown is causing a StackOverflowException Tag: 113501

Hello,

I have a .NET class that creates a form and displays it using ShowDialog.
This .NET class has a COM visible interface that is called by the main app
which is C++ COM.

The form displays correctly and everything seems to be fine, but when the
main app is closed I always get a StackOverflowException from
NativeWindow.OnShutdown. By the time the app is closed I would think that
everything regarding the .NET form has been cleaned up as the form has been
closed and all related objects are out of scope.

Any ideas?
