Hi all im trying to create a basic screen saver that has a screen split into two, the left hand side will be similar to the dos command tree where it lists all files and folders, the right hand side will be where the files contents are displayed. So when the application starts up the tree on the left is populated and then the application starts to go through all the files one by one opening them and scrolling through them if possible.
So here is where im stuck i cant seem to figure out how to print a directory tree to the screen.
It seems like a trivial question i know but i cant for the life of me find a solution as elegant as the dos command.
As always any help would be appreciated.
You can use the TreeView control to display the folders and files. Just populate it with the folder contents, recursively if necessary.

As can be seen in right hand side of the dialog the file path is too long to display in its entirety.
The issue here is there seems to be no way to expand the file path to see all of it. That has at times been a serious problem for me. Is there any workaround for this?
I have some static HTML and want to generate templates out of it. Looking through the HTML tags I often find myself adding the tags I don't want to have in my templates because I went too far down in the hierarchy. Is there a way to kind of isolate the view of a marked code area? Like greying all unmarked code out somehow?
I'm still not 100% sure what you mean by "mark". I'm assuming you mean "select", that is highlight with the cursor, like this:
If that is the case... here is some info.
There is no way to "highlight" the selected portion and work with it, nor a way "dither out" the non selected portion as you go on to work with the desired portion. You could, however, make use of scratch files to work on the desired text. (Scratch files at IntelliJ IDEA help documentation)
With the portion you want to modify selected, if you create a new scratch file (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Insert / ⇧⇧N or Tools > New Scratch File), the selected portion will be copied into a scratch file:
You could then work in that scratch file, then copy and paste the final result back into the original file (the changes you make in the scratch file are not "linked" to the original file).
Because you have a portion selected when you launch the scratch file, IDEA creates a scratch file of the same type (HTML in this case) as the selected content. (If done without selected text, a popup is shown asking the type of scratch file you want to create.) If you want JSP syntax awareness, in the HTML scratch file, open the context menu (i.e. right click) and select "Change Language" and select JSP from the menu (inline search is available, so you can just start typing JSP).
I am working on project where I have TIFF files in a folder and I want to view those in browser one by one using First, Next, previous, last buttons on the screen. Can anyone suggest how to accomplish this?
I am able to view single file using iTextSharp, but how to proceed for above? Please help.
I would like to know if there is any way to add a local file as resource using VB code. Its an image file . Normally I go to Project -> Project1 Properties -> Resources -> Add Resource -> Add Existing File -> and select my executable. I would like to do the above using Visual Basic code. Does anybody have any idea?
Last time I added a resource into my VB program I did the same as you have mentioned above, recently I went to do the same thing and found I had to search for the location and most replays to this question told you what to do but did not show the steps nor the screen which was kinda confusing. I hope the following helps.
Visual Studio 2017:
Right click in the solution explorer window on the VB project name name (Not where is says Solution 'Solution name' (1 project) the line just under that one. Select properties and you will see the project options screen open in front of you mine defaulted to the application tab shown on the left in the screen shot below.
Select the resources option on the left hand side of the screen, you now have options to add resource files to your executable, you can select the following types (Strings, images, icons, audio, files, other) . Note I read there is a size limit for individual files but it is possible to have multiple small files added.
Add your file. In the solution explorer a resources tab will now be visible with your file listed, in my example I added two sound files bite.wav and moan.wav (sorry not an image file). These sound files were compiled into my executable and I executed the sounds in the program with the following:
My.Computer.Audio.Play(My.Resources.Moan, AudioPlayMode.Background) 'Play audio file in background do not halt program
Your resource should now be able to be seen if you enter 'My.Resources.'
Hi can anyone recommend a good, and ideally free editor that will allow me to group opened files based on a module or component I'm working on?
I'm learning joomla so I need one with php,JavaScript,HTML.
I'm currently using dreamweaver. It's great but I hate having to traverse through the file tabs which are usually hidden because I have so many files opened at once. I would ideally want something that will allow me to group these opened files almost like a folder structure where I can create a category for grouping the opened files together so as keep things that are related to one another close by.
Failing this please recommend what is the best approach when dealing with lots and lots of opened files.
I like how browser works because it allows me to open multiple instances and let me group the sites I want via tabs to each browser instance. Dreamweaver won't allow more than one instance. Is there anything out there that can do this?
UltraEdit gives tab a different color depending on the filetype - CSS are green, Javascript are orange, etc. I find this very useful. It also allows the tabs to spill over to several rows, instead of forcing them to one line like Dreamweaver.
If you do have to use Dreamweaver, you can use the file directory panel to traverse the folders on your hard disk. Double-click on a file in a subdirectory to open it, or switch to its tab if it is already open. The file directory panel is on the top-right by default, I think.
