There is a .NET component what I at this site[^] that does that.....
|
|
|
|
|
That component monitors the queue and the jobs in it. It does not monitor the status of the printer itself. What he is looking for is hte status of the printer, the error logs, paper capacity remaining, ... stuff like that.
|
|
|
|
|
The PrinterMonitorComponent.PrinterInformationChanged will fire when the status of the printer changes and the PrinterInformation class passed in the event args has status, pages printed etc....

I'm sorry, but I don't see in your components, where it returns the printer's Error History and current Paper Capacity remaining.

A colleague of mine is using the Shell command to run winzip and compress the files, with the 'Wait' parameter set to True, but sometimes when subsequent code tries to move the zip file, an exception occurs because the file is reported to be in use.
I suspect that winzip is somehow slow at releasing the file, and Shell returns before this happens. Any ideas?

Hello All..
I wonder how microsoft insert the date (today date) to the document.
what happen after insertion? did it just insert it or have an record of saying this particular date is inserted by Insert->Date ( autodate)
Is there any different between Insert->Date and the date we just type in like (12-10-03) ??

I would like to be able to pick a colour on a PictureBox control and make it transparent. How can I then save the image as a gif file with transparency. I have a program that draws shapes on an image in a picturebox, however when I save the image none of the shapes that I have drawn are saved. What do I need to do to achieve this. Any help is appreciated.

OK, first of all, are you drawing the shapes on the PictureBox's Graphics, or a Graphics created from the bitmap? You need to create a graphics from the bitmap using Graphics.FromImage(), and then draw on that.
About transparency, I really don't know how to do that with GIFs in GDI+. I believe the first entry in the palette is the transparent color, but I don't know how to set that with GDI+.

Thanks for your reply
In my program the PictureBox is either loaded from a file:
pictureBox.Image = Image.FromFile(dlg.FileName)
Or from a stream:
Dim binaryData(-1) As [Byte]
binaryData = Base64Utility.GetByteArray(_ImageData)
Dim ms As New MemoryStream(binaryData)
_PictureBox.Image = Image.FromStream(ms)
To draw on the PictureBox I am calling the Invalidate method which then fires the Paint event:
pictureBox.Invalidate()
In the paint event I am passing the PaintEventArgs to this Draw Sub.
Public Sub Draw(ByVal p As Pen, ByVal e As PaintEventArgs) Implements IHotspot.Draw
If _bEndIsSet Then
e.Graphics.DrawRectangle(p, New Rectangle(_ptOrigin.X, _ptOrigin.Y, (_ptEnd.X - _ptOrigin.X), (_ptEnd.Y - _ptOrigin.Y)))
e.Graphics.DrawRectangle(p, _ptEnd.X - 2, _ptEnd.Y - 2, 4, 4)
'e.Graphics.DrawString(CStr(_ptOrigin.X) & ":" & CStr(_ptOrigin.Y), New Font("arial", 8, FontStyle.Regular), Brushes.Yellow, _ptOrigin.X, _ptOrigin.Y)
End If
End Sub
So instead of using e.Graphics I should be using Graphics.FromImage() to draw on?

Correct. In VB6, you could draw on the picturebox and what you drew would show up on the image, but with VB.NET, this doesn't happen. IMO it's much better that way.

Sorry, but that struck me as very tongue-in-cheek.

I won't say it is a problem. Just that I was interested to know wheither VB.NET has a MDI template like in MFC MDI?
I have checked out VB.NET. It seems that most the stuff need to be built on scratch.
Any hints? Thanks

Create a (parent) form and set the form's IsMdiContainer property.
- <parent>.IsMdiContainer = True
Create a child form and set the child's MdiParent property to point to the parent form.

We have had multiple occurances of datasets disappering from the designer. We cannot be specific about the circumstances since we simply do not know when this will occur or under what conditions.
The .xsd and associated .vb files are still located in the source directory. The .vbproj file has references to both but is missing the following tagged lines (as an example). Restoring the tagged lines allows the code to compile correctly, but the data sets still do not show up in the designer. The implication is that we can't select the dataset and look at or modify the schema. Here is a snippet from the .vbproj with the missing lines tagged by >>>
<file
relpath="LabNfonts.vb"
="">>> DependentUpon = "LabNfonts.xsd"
SubType = "code"
>>> BuildAction = "Compile"
>>> DesignTime = "True"
>>> AutoGen = "True"
/>
<file
relpath="LabNfonts.xsd"
="" buildaction="Content">>> Generator = "MSDataSetGenerator"
>>> LastGenOutput = "LabNfonts.xsd"
/>
We are using a single data adapter and reconfiguring it to generate each data set. At execution time, the dataAdapter select, insert, delete, and update comman text is dynamically altered.
The only other way we have found to get the datasets back is to completely delete the dataset and all references to it in the MS generated code, then reconfigure the dataAdaper and regenerate the the dataset.
This is a huge waste of time, and I believe there must be s simple solution for prevention and cure of the problem.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
