I dynamically create buttons on a form and use the button text as ids so that I can pass that to an SQL query to pull saved data about that button when necessary, but I also use an image over buttons that have information saved about them. What I need to know is how do I keep the text on the button from appearing when there is an image assigned to that button? By default vb.net shows both the text and the image and no TextImageRelation values allow for the image to take precedence. I tried changing the text color to transparent, but the outline of the text is still visible through the image. Is there anyway to keep the text value as it is but just show the image on the button?
Don't use the .Text property of the button to store your information. Use the .Tag property for your IDs. Just set the .Text property to "" (empty string), that way it won't interfere with your image.
not sure, but why not just set the value to a variable to be passed to the SQL on the button click event and not place the text on the button? If you are using the same button click event for several buttons you could check the sender's ID and then set the variable based on that.
To Enable "Button1" Click (Visible)
Button1.Enable = True
To Disable "Button1" Click (Visible)
Button1.Enable = False
Hide "Button"
Button1.Visible = True
or
Button1.Show()
Show "Button"
Button1.Visible = False
or
Button1.Hide()
You can Also Used the code to any Tools (TextBox, Label, ComboBox, Radio Button, Button, Link, GroupBox)

I'm a complete noob at this, but does anyone know a simple code that will get hidden buttons to show apon clicking another button?
Thanks!!
In the click event of the button that you want to unhide the other buttons just put
Button1.Visible = True
Button2.Visible = True
Etc.
Replace Button1 with the actual button name.
That’s it
On my form, I have 4 RadioButtons, each with its appearance set to Button. In my program, I change each of these RadioButton's ForeColour, BackColour and AutoCheck status, as below:
ARadioButton.AutoCheck = False
ARadioButton.BackColor = Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.ControlLightLight)
ARadioButton.ForeColor = Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.ControlDark)
However, later on, I reset these properties back to default:
ARadioButton.AutoCheck = True
ARadioButton.BackColor = DefaultBackColor
ARadioButton.ForeColor = DefaultForeColor
My issue is that instead of the entire button being highlighted, only the outside is, as shown in the images below.
Originally:
After changes are made and RadioButtons reset to default using code above:
I know this may seem trivial, but I would like the entire RadioButton to be highlighted when the user clicks on the RadioButton, not just the outside.
Is there a way I could somehow reset this?
Try setting the BackColor property to Color.Transparent
I am developing a Windows Application in VB.Net. In that, there is one case where there is one form, and in that form there is a Panel, and within the Panel there is a rich text box.
So my requirement is to get a scrollbar in the Panel. So when the user does scroll on the panel, the rich text box can scroll accordingly like MS Office functionality..
Can any one give me an idea how to do it?
Set Panel.AutoScroll = True and scrollbars will automatically appear whenever any controls in the panel fall outside its boundaries.
Set the .Dock property to FILL and the .WordWrap property to FALSE for the richtextbox.
Also set the Panel's .Dock property to FILL.
In order to use panel autoscroll property I do that:
panel.AutoScroll = true
panel.VerticalScroll.Visible = False or panel.HorizontalScroll.Visible = False
In order to know the dimensions of the scroolbars use
SystemInformation.HorizontalScrollBarHeight
SystemInformation.VerticalScrollBarWidth
So you can change the dimension of the panel when the scroolbar is shown.

I'm trying to make a thumbnail toolbar button (TTB from now on)visible when the it is clicked. I know how to do stuff when it is clicked, AddHandler etc. But if I tell it TTB.visible=false then it doesn't become invisible. If I put TTB.enabled = False it will be disabled, so it's only the visible that isn't working.
Also I put a button on my form (not a TTB) and when that is click wrote, TTB.visible = false and that didn't work, so there is no way to make it invisible.
Try set TTB.visible=true after you Add it into toolbar button list.
