Dear friends,

Good morning.

I have developed the application using Microsoft visual studio 2005 in C# 2.0 Windows, console and Windows Service Project in One solution file.

Now I have added one more project called Setup from Setup Project Template.

My client has required multilingual installation setup and custom program EXE selection in single setup.

How can I implement this functionality in Visual Studio 2005?

Thank you.

Use table layout for best results. The property you need to set is "anchor".

Possibly the easiest way would be to subclass the control and handle the onpaint method to draw in your own image.

An image in a textbox? Sounds like you need a RichTextBox.

Cheers,

I don't think you can insert image in a textbox. Instead, this article describes how it can be done in a richtextbox: Insert Plain Text and Images into RichTextBox at Runtime[^]

Try adding panel1.Refresh(); to update it after you change the scroll bar, it might help.

How to position ContextMenu by selected row in a DataGridView on keyboard event

akkram4-Dec-07 0:58

On the KeyDown event in a DataGridView I want to open a context menu
using the Apps key, something like: if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Apps) then
show the context menu by the selected row. The problem im having is how do I get the right position for the selected row to send in to the contextMenu.Show() method.

When using the MouseUp event I can just use the MouseEventArgs (e.Location) to position the context menu by the selected row: contextMenu.Show((Control)sender, e.Location); Anyone know how I can accomplish this for a keyboard event?

You could override PreProcessMessage method

protected override bool ProcessCmdKey(ref Message msg, Keys keyData)
{
if (keyData.Equals(Keys.Delete))
{
// return true to tell the caller,
// that the message was processed by this control.
return true;
}

return base.ProcessCmdKey(ref msg, keyData);
}

or simply set AllowUserToDeleteRows to false

Actually I am using an image when the mouse is over on the image i want to increase the size of image,like zoom effect, and it increase the original size of the Image control and it will half appear outside of my form. Confused | :confused:

No you can't. The form which is the container of your control is like a piece of paper. Your picture can only be drawn within the boundary that your canvas allows. You could end up scribbling on the desk, but GDI+ doesn't like that Smile | :)

Image-Map from database for WinForms? [modified]

I have 2 projects coming up that require me to use existing map/floorlayout, certain areas must them be identified by the user. Lets say Room1, Room2, etc. Those areas should then be saved and either allow the user to select them (identifying which area was selected) and colour (fill) them in order to show "occupied" for example. (It will be done in WinForms .NET 2.0)

Honestly have never done something like this and was wondering what tips and pointers my fellow CPians could give me Confused | :confused:

Do one thing
Create Two variables for 1) for room no 2) for color
Now the user prompt the user to select the room and color
that work you can access by four button or chick box

When the user select the check boxes now you should generate an event which will take the color and room no as argument that you will handle through the coding the custom color and room.

Sorry maybe I was not clear enough Sigh | :sigh:

These rooms must be visualy defined. For example the client will scan in a floor layout of a building. Then by "drawing" on this scanned image define where "Room1", "Room2" etc are in terms of location and size.

Then a user must be able to click on a area and the application must then identify the click; i.e. whether the user clicked in "Room1" or "Room2" on the image. Also it needs to display the image with (for example) "occupied rooms" being shaded, indicating they are unavailable.

Hope that helps...? We are talking about images and GIS kinda stuff here ... I think D'Oh! | :doh:

You're basically going to have to translate the mouse click location into a position on the map. This means that behind the scenes, you are going to have to translate each room into a set of extents and then see which extents the mouse click is in.

yip, kinda like that. i'm hoping someone can help me in the right direction as far as saving these custom defined areas to database as they are not just simple x,y,height,width measurements... it might be a "freehand" shape. also how, once you have established a scale, to calculate areas etc...

*****
thought of a better way to explain this ... ever seen these automated terminals at the movies. on the touch screen you select the movie you want to see and then you shows you a schematic of "the cinema", the blue squares will (for example) be the "taken seats" and the white square will represent the "available seats". The user can then click on the seats they want to book.

this is effectively what i need to do .. the only addition is that in a cinema the seats are predetermined. My application also need to allow the user to define the number, size and location of the "seats" in a given area/layout.

I have an WinForm and WebBrowser control on it. WebBrowser generates a NewWindow event (many web links have that settings by default) than I catch it, make it e.Cancel = true.
But the question: how to retrieve full requeted URL

The code:

...<br />
webBrowser.NewWindow += new System.ComponentModel.CancelEventHandler webBrowser_NewWindow);<br />
...<br />
void webBrowser_NewWindow( object sender, System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e ) {<br />
Console.WriteLine("New window" + (sender as WebBrowser).Url.ToString());<br />
e.Cancel = true;<br />
}

Thanks in advance! Cool | :cool:

Well I never had a problem with just copying the complete folder to a new PC and then opening the solution (that should only contain relative paths) - maybe you are missing some critical files that are located on another folder (for example the solution file?)?
