I'm trying to make an autoscroll enabled panel that will scroll if the mouseposition.x > panel.location.y
However, I cannot seem to find a panel.scroll() function. Is there a way to programable make the control scroll?
Thanks
panel.VerticalScroll.Value = 50
and
panel.HorizontalScroll.Value = 50
you can use
panel.VerticalScroll.Minimum, panel.VerticalScroll.Maximum,
panel.HorizontalScroll.Minimum, panel.HorizontalScroll.Maximum
to check max and min values

I'm stuck on a code where I need to make Label AutoSize with fixed width. I've tried
Label1.AutoSize = True
Label1.MaximumSize = (FixedWidthInteger,0)
but its still not resizing the length when text if overflow. I've tried to make Panel also AutoSize Enabled to let Label resizing itself but both ways doesn't work. Thank you if you can help me with this please.
Its fixed. I just change the Anchor to all sides of the Panel and its resizing well now.
I have a textbox that I write info to that automatically creates a scroll bar when the screen is filled, and I'd like to scroll to the bottom of it. It seems like what I need to do is set the scrollbar Offset to some vector, but my problem is finding the ScrollViewer.
I can't use FindControl because it's not named anywhere in the xaml, and I can only change a few values using textbox.SetValue
The only way to scroll a TextBox currently is to set the CaretPosition. For example to scroll to the end of the text you could use:
textbox.CaretIndex = int.MaxValue;
For me it works only when I set textbox.CaretIndex to the length of the text. Assuming that property Logs (string type) is binded to textbox I used this
textbox.CaretIndex = Logs.Length
We have developed windows application which is including many forms and controls with default small display size and it is working fine.
but in client systems,displays are not consistent. so when the same code runs with medium/large screen size, the controls are overlapping
It would be great help if anyone gives solution for dynamic re-size/fit the form & controls for any display (small-100%, medium-125%, large-150%)
and also Is there any way to find the Display size (small-100%, medium-125%, large-150%) in vb.net
You can change display size in control-Panel.
You can use the Anchor property to automatically adjust the control size according to its form size. You can anchor any side of the control to that side of the form. For example, if I anchor all four sides of a picturebox to the form, the picturebox will mimic the shape of the form when the form is resized. If you anchor only the top and the bottom of the picturebox, for example, it will change height with the form, but the width and horizontal position will remain constant.
Finally found a solution by doing R&D
call the below function in the Form_Load like ScaleForm(me)
Public Sub ScaleForm(WindowsForm As System.Windows.Forms.Form)
Using g As System.Drawing.Graphics = WindowsForm.CreateGraphics
Dim sngScaleFactor As Single
Dim sngFontFactor As Single = 1
If g.DpiX > 96 Then
sngScaleFactor = g.DpiX / 96
'sngFontFactor = 96 / g.DpiY
End If
If WindowsForm.AutoScaleDimensions = WindowsForm.CurrentAutoScaleDimensions Then
'ucWindowsFormHost.ScaleControl(WindowsForm, sngFontFactor)
WindowsForm.Scale(sngScaleFactor)
End If
End Using
End Sub
I have used CheckedListBox control in vb.net application.
I have several items as follow, item 1, item 2, item 3........item 100.
Now, i want all these items to arrange into three columns and then appear verticle scrollbar.
But, in CheckedListBox, it appears as horizontally. i want it to appear horizontally for just three columns and then vertical scroll should enable.
Can you please suggest if possible in CheckedListBox control or any other control and if possible then how i would have to set its property to achieve this.
I don't think you can do that in a CheckedListBox....
You could create a FlowLayoutPanel, with a fixed width and add AutoScroll = True.
Then add a number of CheckBox controls to it.
You could have problems regarding column alignment and margins. If that's the case, you can set the checkbox Autosize = False and make them a little larger (in order to contain the text)
Or you can reduce the Height of the checkboxes to reduce spaces (is this what you want?)
eg. Height = 15
Use repeat direction =horizontal and repeat column =3 for checkbox list
I have a simple form in Access 2003. The form has a List control and a button. I wanted to make the list to resize with the form (only vertically) while the button remains at the bottom right of the List. I'm using the following code on the form's resize event.
list.Height = Me.InsideHeight - list.Top - 200
commandButton.Top = list.Height + list.Top + 50
This works fine as I resize the form, until the form height gets to a certain height. Then I get this error;
Run-time error '2100':
The control or subform control is too large for this location
This error is occurring at the line where I'm assigning the commandButton.Top. If I remove this line then the list height changes fine. I don't have any subforms in the form.
Does anyone know why this is happening?
Thanks
I think it is because you need to resize the detail section of the form first.
Try changing the code to
Me.Section(0).Height = Me.InsideHeight
list.Height = Me.InsideHeight - list.Top - 200
commandButton.Top = list.Height + list.Top + 50
Came by here (as many have) with the same problem and then realised my issue. Be mindful when resizing a control to a larger size with regard to the order of setting properties.
I would recommend setting the TOP and LEFT positions before HEIGHT and WIDTH.
Although my final sized control should have fitted OK once resized, I had originally tried setting the WIDTH first which attempted to enlarge the control exceeding the width of the form. My application threw the 2100 error at that point. I really hope this helps someone! Also, don't forget to set dimensions in TWIPS which is set as INCHESS x 1440 (or CM x 566.9291), ie: .Width = 10 * 566.9291 to set a control width to 10cm.
I get this same error if I set the width to greater the 31680.
With a little more research, I notice MS Access only allows a form width to be 22" wide. 22" = 31680 TWIPS.
So my workaround solutions it to add a check:
If newWidth > 31680 Then newWidth = 31680
