    - Odd problem with owner drawn listbox and mousewheel This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_002B_01C5D404.36948D30 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I have a bit of an odd problem. A couple years ago, I built a little font explorer program in VB.Net. = Nothing fancy, just enumerates all the fonts on a system and prints what = some sample text would look like in each font. I created an owner-drawn = ListBox and each item in the Items collection represented a screen font = on the system. I wanted to revamp it and get rid of this one little minor annoyance. When placed on a form and run, she looks great. If I use the mouse wheel = to scroll DOWN the ListBox, I notice an odd effect. The list items = scroll into position correctly, but if you watch it closely as it = animates, they are scrolling from the TOP-DOWN. The items are in the = ListBox in the right order. Order is not the issue here. If I were to describe what I perceive a little better, it looks like = this: I have 6 fonts in the ListBox. A, B, and C are visible in the client = area.

    - Exposing usercontrol components at design time Hi, I want to allow design time modification of components on a usercontrol. I added a listview called listView1 to the usercontrol, then added this accessor method: [Category("Components"), Description("Set the listview parameters."), DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Content)] public MyListView ListView { get { return listView1; } } This works great, almost. When the usercontrol is added to a form, I can edit the ListView properties. Unfortunately, this line of coded is added to my form's InitializeComponent() method: this.userListView.Controls.Add(this.listView1.ListView); I've read that usually you have to expose each property individually, but exposing the entire control works except for the redundant "Add" above. And with DesignerSerializationVisibility.Content I didn't expect the control itself to be serialized, just the contents. If I delete the line above everything is fine, but of course I don't want to have to edit InitializeComponent(). Is there a way to eliminate the redundant listview "Add()"? Thank you, Gary Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93356

    - MessageBox clears my splash screen Hello, I am opening a messagebox on top of a splash screen. The splash screen is a normal windows form with(FormBorderStyle=None, StartPosition=Center and TopMost=true). My problem is that my MessageBox is clearing the splash form behind it. When I press OK on the message box, the splash form is all gray(the background color) and no controls are visible. I have tried to set up a timer on the splash screen, and when the timer kicks in, the form is visible and it does not help to call neither Update og invalidate on the form. The only thing that helps is if I call Hide() and Show(), then all my controls are visible. I call the messagebox with the owner window, but there is no difference. Any ideas? Thanks Henrik.

    - Message loop question Hi, Could someone explain to me why this doesn't work? (VS 7.1, .NET 1.1) Thread A: Application.Run(); Thread B: myForm.Show(); If I run both on the same thread it works. I thought that it was enough to have a message loop running on any thread in the application to make forms work, but apparently not. Why? If I change the code in thread A to Application.Run(myForm); the form works. Why? I thought the only difference would be that the message loop would now exit when the form closes. If I change the code in thread B to myForm.ShowDialog(); the form also works. Why? -- Patrik Rådman patrik at iki dot fi http://www.iki.fi/patrik/ Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93351

    - Delaying control repaint. Is it possible? Hi there, Using a foreach, I want to iterate (make visible) all the tabpages of a tabcontrol, in order to activate the databinding of the controls in each tabpage. Is there a way to delay/disable the repainting until the iteration is done, so the user doesn't see the tabpages switching? Something like: -Disable control repaint in the form -Iterate the tabpages -Enable control repaint (and then the last tabpage activated is shown instantly) Regards, -Benton Using VS 2005 Beta 2 Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93337

    - Form level OnMouseLeave I'm overriding OnMouseLeave at Form level: protected override void OnMouseLeave(EventArgs e) { this.Close(); } The purpose of this, as you may suspect, is to close the form when the user moves the mouse off it. However, this seems to fire whenever the mouse moves over any control on the form, I imagine because the mouse is "leaving" the form's base surface. How can I do what I'm trying to do ?

    - Treenode added to itself - No Exception? Hello Ive just made a typo in some code that dynamically adds treenodes to a parent node. The result was something silly like this: dim tn as new treenode("mytext") .. tn.nodes.add(tn) This didn't throw an exception but rather (i assume) recursively looped and hung the application on a test debug and run. Does everyone else get this kind behaviour? And if so why doesn;t it throw an exception? Treeview is a UI control. Its impossible to draw this kind of behaviour....at least in this dimension anyway.

    - Text Box Validation - prevent a blank entry Hi, I have a form with several text boxes on it. Each test box requires some validation ... for being numeric etc. and I am successfully using the Validating and Validated events of each text box and an ErrorProvider to achieve this... However, I want to validate one of the text boxes such that the user *must* enter a value... ie. the text box must be non-blank. I tried putting code in the Validating event to disallow a blank value.. this did not work. The problem is that the Validating event is only invoked if the text box gets focus. If the user never clicks on the text box, then me error is never displayed. How do I force this validation .. even if text box never gains focus ? Many thanks.

    - Printing the entire UserControl - as is.. Hi, In my windows application, I have a form and I placed an UserControl on the form. I placed lot of edit controls on the UserControl. Is there a way to print the entire UserControl just as it appears on screen? This is something similar to Print Screen functionality, which captures the whole screen as an image. But I want to capture just part of the screen, which is usercontrol. If the usercontrol has scrollbars, I want to include the hidden portion as well in the print functionality. Basically, I want to have a button on the form with a caption "Print Page", that should capture the entire UserControl as an image including any hidden scrollbar region and send it to the printer. Is this possible? Any ideas.. Thanks, Raj Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93320

    - Add controls to taskbar (like Google Desktop Search box) I was wondering if there's any way to create a toolbar that docks on top of the windows tast bar and shows up in the "toolbars" list. I noticed that Google Desktop Search has an option to add a search box to the taskbar (fully dockable/floating etc), so it looks like it must be possible, but I haven't been able to find a way to do it. The closest I came was a sample ApplicationBar, but this could only dock over top of the taskbar, not "inside" it. Ideally, I'd like to create something similar to what GDS has, which is selectable from the context menu, and which can be used in either a "docking" or "floating" mode. Is there any way to do this?

    - ComboBox autofiltering items - using RowFilter Hi guys! I need a help from you. I would like to do an autofiltering ComboBox. There is a ComboBox as DropDown style and its items come from a DataView. Well, when user types on that control (Text property) it should filter the rows inside using the DataView.RowFilter property and, in the same time, shows to user its items (DroppedDown = True) already filtered. I've tried the following: Private Sub ComboBox1_KeyUp(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles ComboBox1.KeyUp Dim strRowFilter As String strRowFilter = String.Concat("Name LIKE '%", ComboBox1.Text, "%'") DataView1.RowFilter = strRowFilter ComboBox1.DroppedDown = True End Sub As you can see, when the users types on ComboBox's Text property the event KeyUp is raised. Then, its Text content becames a Filter string, eg. "John" goes "Name LIKE '%John%'" and that string to RowFilter. My solution for this issue isn't working. When I type the Text I can se the items but for just the first letter. Thanks in advance. Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93306

    - Get rows as shown on DataGrid (WYSIWYG) Hi, How do I get DataGrid to return all the rows that are currently displayed on the screeen as seen by the user (WYSIWYG). The main requirement is the users can scroll up-or-down the grid, and refresh (retrieve the latest data from the database) the rows as seen by them by clicking a "Refresh Shown Rows" button. However they do not want to select any particular row (therefore I am unable to use any of the "Selected" functions). The DataGrid is binded to a DataView, which in turn is binded to a DataSet. The DataGird has a fixed height, showing 12 rows at any time. Therefore at any point of time I just need to refresh the 12 rows as seen by the user. Pls kindly advise. TQ.

    - VSTO modal form question Hello I'm working on a Microsoft Word VSTO (Visual Studio Tools for Office) project (2003). The 'host' Word document has a custom command button which brings up a Windows Form via the following (C#) code private void RunScript_Click( Office.CommandBarButton Ctrl, ref Boolean CancelDefault ) { __pyScriptForm = new PyScriptForm( this.ThisApplication ); __pyScriptForm.Show(); } where 'ThisApplication' is of type /Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application/. This form is used to run scripts written in Python, capture their 'StdOut', and write it to the underlying document. This works as I want - as the script runs, the output appears on the document below. However, I think it would be preferable if the form were shown modally - the document shouldn't be accessible while a script is running, and there's a Cancel button on the form that will stop the script. But if I do this ( with ShowDialog rather than Show ), then the written output doesn't show up until the Form is closed. It's more satisfactory if you get the data appearing right away. Can I have my cake and eat it with this - ie. have a modal form, but also see the script output? TIA G.F. Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93289

    - DrawString calls inconsistant in Paint Handler! Hi, I am using Graphics.DrawString in the paint handler of a label. The text comes up and behaves as expected on all events such as resize of the lable control. The problem is when i move a messagebox/ another application( say notepad ) across the lable. In this case a clean repaint of the text fails to appear. The text gets drawn erratically or altogether disappears. What could i be missing out on in this code. I tried inheriting from System.Windows.Forms.Label and overriding the onpaint method with same results. I had also tried having the usercontrol as UserControlStyles.UserPaint. I was trying to avoid having to create the Graphics object for the lable in the main form as this is not advisable; but i tried that also with even worse results.

    - Multithreaded Panel Visiblility Hi everyone, I've got myself a C# .NET 1.1 application I'm making where a docked Panel that contains some progress bars etc. is being toggled between Visible and not. Basically a user drags some photos into the window and it activates a background thread that shows the panel, does some work, and hides it again. If this is not in a separate thread, it works!

When I set the FormBorderStyle to None before calling show on the client form, I can resize the container form and if there are unseen areas of the child, it shows the horizontal and vertical scrollbars (that's fine). However, I want the FormBorderStyle set to Sizable so that I can treat them like Excel workbooks and minimize, maximize, and move around however I want. So I set FormBorderStyle to Sizable and the child's windowstate is set to maximized. The PROBLEM is that when the container form is sized to a smaller size so that the child form has unseen areas, there are no scrollbars and you cannot get to those unseen areas of the child without restoring down the child. That is similar to Excel, except in Excel when the workbook is maximized and the container is smaller than the workbook, there are scrollbars available so that you can get to the unseen areas of the child. How can I duplicate how Excel handles this? Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93264

    - ClickOnce Server Name Hi, So far we were using No Touch Deployment (Framework 1.1) to run the application. Using No Touch Deployment when we run command Application.ExecutablePath it gives the full url from where the application executed. Like http://ServerName/CompanyName/Application.exe. Now we are trying to use ClickOnce Deployment Technology. Everything works great. But, when we run the command Application.ExecutablePath or Application.StatupPath it gives local temp directory path.(where it installed the application). My question is how do I get the full url or the server name from where it downloaded the files. Thanks in advance, Rob Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93259

    - Freezing datagrid columns I'd like to set up a datagrid so that, when the user scrolls right, the first column (I'm only after one column at the moment, a method that coped with multiple columns would be nice) remains where it is. i.e. similar to the freeze panes command in Excel. I've seen that lots of people have posted this question in the past, but I haven't seen an answer. I've tried Ken Tucker's ColoredGridColumn class but it doesn't work for me. I've seen the idea of using two datagrids side by side but can't figure out what I'd need to do to override the events of the vertical scroll bar on the right hand grid so that it automatically applied to the left as well. At the moment, my thought is just to completely remove the scroll bars and replace with left and right buttons where 'right' will just remove from the column style collection, and 'left' will add back in, but that is obviously a non-standard UI so I'd rather not do it that way. Anyone have any details of a good way to do this? Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93258

    - How to display sub-object property in a DataGrid? I have two classes, say A and B. Class A has a property of type B. For example: class A int ID B SubObject class B string Name I bind my DataGrid to class A. I want to display B's Name property. I have code like: DataGridTextBoxColumn col1 = new DataGridTextBoxColumn(); col1.MappingName = "SubObject.Name"; // this does not work How to I tell the DataGrid to display a property from a sub-object of class A? I saw this question asked a few times on the Net, but never had an answer. Maybe it's not even possible... Thanks. Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93252

    - Tab Control and Combo Box (bound) I have a combo box that is on a tab page in the tab control. The combo box is bound to a dataset - I already know about the problem of having to set the selected index twice to set it at -1. At runtime, when I go to another tab page, the selected index is still at -1, but when I go back to the first tab page where the combo box is, the selected index of the combo box is set back to 0, and there is text in the combo box. The SelectedIndexChanged event does NOT fire. Does anybody have a workaround for this? Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93250

    - Controls moving down Sometimes, after saving the form in VB.Net Form Designer, I see the controls inside a group box moving down. All the forms are inherited from a simple base form, which contains a label and a toolbar on the top. The form's borderstyle is sizable. Any ideas?

    - OnPaintBackground vs. Scrollbar Hi, I have a user painted backgrounf form. When form has got a scrollbar I run into trouble with drawing. I get the ClipRectangle in the EventArgs. It is depends on the graphics face, not the virtual (I mean that if I have a from with 400px of height and have a control at 600px and I scroll to the control I will get a ClipRectangle with Y like 25px, not 575px with 200px height). Even I cannot ask the virtual clientsize of the form, only the displayable face through Form.ClientSize. There is a PrefferedSize property, but it gives the form.Height value, not the ClientHeight... So I have determine the "border" of the form... But even complicated with scrollbar... So the real question is: Do I miss something or missunderstood with OnBackground paint + ClipRectangle + Scrollbar.Value and Scrollbar.Maximum (which does NOT gives the PrefferedSize.Height if it is the VScrolllbar.Maximum property)? Or what is the nice solution to handle the scrollbar value and draws the exact face of the background (if the face of the background as big as the virtual size of the form)?

    - Add satellite assemblies to a signed assembly??? Hi all! Is it possible to add a satellite assembly containing resources with localized strings to an existing assembly that has been signed with a unknown private key? My problem: I have a third party product with Windows Forms controls that uses resource files. There are however no resource file for Swedish included. So would it be possible to create a resource file with the Swedish translation, compile it to a satellite assembly and have the third party assembly (that is signed with an unknown private key) use my new resource file? (Note: I'm not interested in sending my translations to the third party manufacturer and ask him to sign my satellite assembly) Maybe it is impossible for security reasons??? Or could there be some nice solution to this problem? Question 2: Lets say that I'm about to create a WindowsForm gui controller that I would like to distribute in a signed assembly. Then I would like the users to be able to create their own recourse-files (with their own translations). What must I do to accomplish this?

    - Invisible combobox. I set up a combobox with Visual Studio 2003 and it generated the following code: // // serverComboBox // this.serverComboBox.DropDownWidth = 121; this.serverComboBox.Items.AddRange(new object[] { "AllServers", "1Server", "2Server", "3Server"}); this.serverComboBox.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(136, 16); this.serverComboBox.Name = "serverComboBox"; this.serverComboBox.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(121, 21); this.serverComboBox.TabIndex = 0; The problem is that the items are not displayed in the drop down. If I select the second item then the combo box text seems to get set to the right value (in this case "1Server" but I don't see any of the items that I am to select until it is selected and the combo box text is set to the selection. How can I enable the viewing of the combo box items? Thank you. Kevin Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93217

    - passing sql server 2000 values with visual basic.net In a visual basic.net 1.1 windows application, I need to pass required and optional values from a sql server 2000 table for a windows application to process. Each of the 250 columns in the sql server 2000 database table are options on how a windows application with process. The user will pick all the options they want and then hit a submit button. I am trying to decide how to pass all these options to the business logic layer that will do the acutally processing. Each row in the sql server 2000 database contains the 250 optional ways for processing. Would it be better to pass these values in a collection, struct, serialization, and/or some other way? Would you show me some code and/or url on how to accomplish this task? Tag: Windoos service posting to URL Tag: 93216
