  • How do I make a child control re-anchor to its parent Form when it has been cut off on a small resol

    - by Paul Fedory
    I have a Windows Form with a default size of 1100 x 400, and I have a DataGridView control on it anchored to Top, Left, Bottom, Right. Resizing the form on a screen with resolution higher than 1100 x 400 works fine, and the anchoring works well, resizing the DataGridView control as expected. When I launch the form on a screen with resolution 800x600, the form is cut off, and made to fit the 800 x 600. The DataGridView is cut off, and cannot be seen entirely - it bleeds off the form to the right, so it's not respecting the right anchor. Resizing the form in this situation doesn't respect the anchoring settings for some reason: the DataGridView control does not resize when the form is resized. Is there a way programmatically (on a resize event or something) to force the child DataGridView control to anchor to the sides of the form? I've already tried calling a PerformLayout and Refresh in the Form's resize event but it's rather redundant, isn't it?

  • Strongly Typed Controls in .NET

    - by Tigraine
    I am working on a Windows Forms app for quite some time now, and I really find myself doing more typecasts in the GUI code than I ever did in my underlying business code. What I mean becomes apparent if you watch the ComboBox control that accepts some vague "object" as it's item. Then you go off and may display some DisplayMember and a ValueMember and so on. If I want to retrieve that value later I need to typecast my object back to what it was. Like with strings getting the value takes string value = (string)combobox1.SelectedItem; Since there are generics in the Framework for quite some time now, I still wonder why in the Hell not one control from the standard toolbox is generic. I also find myself using the .Tag property on ListViewItems all the time to keep the displayed domain object. But everytime I need to access that object I then need another typecast. Why cant I just create a ComboBox or ListView with items of type ListViewItem Am I missing something here or is this just another example of not perfectly well thought through controls?

  • Failing to send key presses to a running process in C#

    - by Waffles
    I'm using the following code to put the focus on a window (in this case, a notepad window), and sending some key presses to it everytime button 2 is clicked. However, when I press button 2, nothing happens. Can anyone tell my why my sendkeys command is failing? public partial class Form1 : Form { [DllImport("user32.dll")] static extern bool ShowWindow(IntPtr hWnd, int nCmdShow); private Process s; public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); } private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.s = new Process(); s.StartInfo.FileName = "notepad"; s.Start(); s.WaitForInputIdle(); } private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { ShowWindow(s.MainWindowHandle, 1); SendKeys.SendWait("Hello"); } }

  • Synclock a section of code while waiting for ShowDialog to return

    - by clawson
    I'm having trouble working out how to lock my application out of a section of code while it waits for a response from an external program. I've used Synclock on a section of code with the Me object in the expression. In this Synclock I call an overridden ShowDialog method of a dialog box, which has a timeout parameter, but does return the value from the underlying ShowDialog function call ,once the timer is setup. Works like this. SyncLock Me Dim frmDlgWithTimeout As New frmDlgWithTimeout ' dialog box with overridden ShowDialog ' Dim res As DialogResult = frmDlgWithTimeout.ShowDialog(10 * 1000) ' 10 sec timeout ' End SyncLock Now, external programs may raise events that bring my application to this Synclock but it doesn't prevent it from entering it, even though the ShowDialog function hasn't returned a value (and hence what I thought would keep the section of code locked). There is only one instance of the object that is used for lock in the program. Your help is greatly appreciated.

  • two UserControls, one page, need to notify each other of updates

    - by jeriley
    I've got a user control thats used twice on the same page, each have the ability to be updated (a dropdown list gets a new item) and I'm not sure what might be the best way to handle this. One concern - this is an older system (~4+ years, datasets, .net2) and it is amazingly brittle. I did manage to have it run on 3.5 with no problems, but I've had a few run-ins with the javascript validation (~300 lines per page) throwing up all over the place when I change/add/modify controls in the parent.

  • How to check whether the form has any ShowDialog() forms open?

    - by kornelijepetak
    I have a form MainForm with several properties/methods that are accessed from another thread. At some point I might open a form AuxForm with ShowDialog() and then while that modal form is open, the other thread still modifies the MainForm's properties. This is all desired. In one of the methods accessed from another thread I need to execute some code, but only if the modal AuxForm is not open. Is there any way to check this (by using .NET WF Form properties) or I need to use a flag variable? NOTE: None of these properties/methods modify the controls (so no Invoke is required).

  • Three State Treeview Windows Forms

    - by alhambraeidos
    Hello everybody people, One of the frustrations with the standard TreeView is that you can't show a partial selection to indicate that some of the children are selected. A partial selection in a complex tree allows the user to easily determine where the selections are, even if the tree is not completely expanded. A similar idea is used in manu backup programs to allow the user to select the files to be backed up. Does anyone know of a way to make the checks in a treeview checkbox gray? I want to gray the check of a parent node when some (but not all) of its child nodes are checked. Kinda like what you see when you are selecting options to install during a software installation. I have seen several post, but is older (2000, 2007 year). I now, in 2010, the better answer possible is required. I use VS 2008 . Net 3.5 , Windows Forms Thanks in advanced, greetings

  • Binding a ListBox's SelectedItem in the presence of BindingNavigator

    - by Reinderien
    Hello. I'm trying to bind a ListBox's SelectedItem data to a property. The following code is an example: using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Windows.Forms; namespace BindingFailure { static class Program { class OuterObject { public string selected { get; set; } public List<string> strings { get; set; } } public static void Main() { List<OuterObject> objs = new List<OuterObject>() { new OuterObject(), new OuterObject() }; objs[0].strings = new List<string> { "one", "two", "three" }; objs[1].strings = new List<string> { "four", "five", "six" }; Form form = new Form(); BindingSource obs = new BindingSource(objs, null), ibs = new BindingSource(obs, "strings"); BindingNavigator nav = new BindingNavigator(obs); ListBox lbox = new ListBox(); lbox.DataSource = ibs; lbox.DataBindings.Add(new Binding("SelectedItem", obs, "selected")); form.Controls.Add(nav); form.Controls.Add(lbox); lbox.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(30, 30); Application.Run(form); } } } If you just select an item, move forward, select an item and then exit, it works as expected. But if you switch back and forth between the two outer objects with the navigator, the selected item seems to be overwritten with an incorrect value. Ideas on how to fix this? Thanks in advance.

  • How can I draw a Rectangle on a PictureBox?

    - by TooFat
    I am trying to just draw a Rectangle on a PictureBox that is on a Form. Writing text like shown here works fine. private void pictureBox1_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e) { using (Font myFont = new Font("Arial", 14)) { e.Graphics.DrawString("Hello .NET Guide!", myFont, Brushes.Green, new Point(2, 2)); } } but when I try to draw a rectangle like so nothing shows up. private void pictureBox1_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e) { Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(); rect.Location = new Point(25, 25); rect.Width = 50; using (Pen pen = new Pen(Color.Red, 2)) { e.Graphics.DrawRectangle(pen, rect); } } What am I missing?

  • What's the best way to tell if the mouse is over a form or not?

    - by cyclotis04
    I figured out how to capture mouse clicks over the entire form, but this method doesn't translate well for MouseEnter and MouseLeave. My form layout is made up from many Panels and TableLayoutPanels so there's no all-encompassing control I can monitor events for, and obviously a MouseLeave event for a button doesn't mean the cursor left the entire form. Has anyone figured out a good way to get around this?

  • How do I add/remove items to a ListView in virtual mode?

    - by Eric
    If I'm using a ListView in virtual mode then, as I understand it, the list view only keeps track of a small number of items in the list. As the user scrolls it dynamically retrieves items it needs to show from the virtual list. But what if an item is added or removed from the master list? If an item is added/removed outside of the range of indexes being shown by the list view then I would assume the list view would show the added/missing items when the user scrolls to that index. Is this correct? But what if an item is added/removed from the range of indexes the user is currently viewing? How do I trigger the list view to refresh the items it is currently viewing to show the new/missing items?

  • How to report DataContext.SubmitChanges() progress with LINQ2SQL

    - by kzen
    If there is a foreach loop that contains DataContext.Customer.InsertOnSubmit(cust) for example: foreach (Object obj in collection) { Customer cust = new Customer { Id = obj.Id, Name = obj.Name ... }; DataContext.Customer.InsertOnSubmit(cust); } And outside of the loop there is a call to: DataContext.SubmittChanges(); Is there a way to obtain the SubmittChanges progress in order to report the progress back to the user (or a different approach without moving the SubmittChanges into the loop)?

The problem is though that it first appears very small, at the top left of the screen and the buttons are too small. Is there anyway i can set a starting size for this dialog or start position or even make the little buttons a little bigger? Or do i need to implement my own?
