By the way, this solution was only tested for PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb and PixelFormat.Format48bppRgb. Use with extreme caution!

I'm trying to make a ticker that gets its information from an rss news feed.
I can't figure out how to make the link portion be in sync with the title portion. What i mean is this.
Lets say i have titles
siteone
sitetwo
sitethree
I want it to scroll which i have it doing right now, but I want to be able to click on say sitetwo and it take me to toysrus.com or whatever and if i click on sitethree it take me to broadband.com or whatever the link in the rss file indicates. Here is what i have so far but obviously its not working. I can't figure out how to seperate if you will the links to correspond to the correct title. Never using the rss reader before so don't beat me up to bad if its an easy obvious fix.
void ticker()
{
String URLString = "http://www.local-news.net/go/-84.5374/33.8591/rss/";
XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader (URLString);
string tickerstring = reader.ReadString();
while(true)
{
while (reader.Read())
{
if (reader.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Element)
{
if (reader.LocalName.Equals("title"))
{
tickerstring +=reader.ReadString()+" ";
}
if (reader.LocalName.Equals("link"))
link=reader.ReadString();
}
}
int removeme =-1;
for (int i=0; i<=tickerstring.Length; i++)
{
label2.Text=i.ToString();
if (i>100)
{
label1.Text = tickerstring.Substring(++removeme,label1.Text.Length);
}
else
try
{
label1.Text = tickerstring.Substring(0,i);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());
}
Thread.Sleep(100);
}
Thread.Sleep(1000);
}
}

Update:
I have it reading it in and matching the links but I'm hung up on something that i thought would be obvious but its not. For some reason the link is one title behind. I see in the code that it reads the title then the link which is what it should do but as soon as it starts spitting out the title It should be linkable but the link hasn't changed. I have tried moving this segment of code all around and can't figure it out. Help would be appreciated.
if (reader.LocalName.Equals("link"))
link=reader.ReadString();
label2.Text=link.ToString();
void ticker()
{
String URLString = "http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/topstories";
string tickerstring="";
while(true)
{
XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader (URLString);
int removeme =-1;
while (reader.Read())
{
if (reader.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Element)
{
if (reader.LocalName.Equals("link"))
link=reader.ReadString();
label2.Text=link.ToString();
Thread.Sleep(300);
if (reader.LocalName.Equals("title"))
{
tickerstring =reader.ReadString()+" ";
for (int i=0; i<=tickerstring.Length; i++)
{
if (i>100)
{
label1.Text = tickerstring.Substring(++removeme,label1.Text.Length);
}
else
{
try
{
label1.Text = tickerstring.Substring(0,i);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());
}
}
Thread.Sleep(100);
}
}
}
}
}
}

hi all,
i can't access directly to the treeView.text property. my problem is how to clear the treeView content. i tryed also the resetText method but it doesn't resolve the problem.
|
|

Treeviews don't have text. Instead, they have nodes. Use the nodes to acess the text you want.
To clear a treeview, use this:
<br />
TreeView1.Nodes.Clear()<br />

Have a Double and want to convert it to a Date format, any suggestions how to do it?
And yes, having a date as a double is pretty stupid  , but converting from double to string or long is not problem anyhow. But in the GUI I'm using one of those fancy almanacs that requires the Date format.
|
|
|
|
|
If your Double is number of ticks which should be long type , see the constructor of DateTime structure.

Where did this Double come from? Another system? If so, then you might have to do some tweaking because not all systems/languages use the same epoch as a starting point, or use the same units of measure. Some count the milliseconds from a specific date and time, others count the number of ticks from a date/time...
With that in mind, you can use
DateTime myDateTime(ticks
where ticks is the number of 100-nanosecond intervals since 12:00am on Jan 1, 0001. Yes you read that right, the year 1.

 I am new to .Net and C#. I have written a few programs but am having trouble figuring out how to create an exe file.
Where are the settings for creating a distributable executable when I do a build?
Thanks

If your using visual studio, make an application project, same with #develop...if you not using either of those, you can use csc.exe from the framework (the compiler).

How can I dynamic new some pictureBoxs on the original PictureBox...??
2.
After adding a PictureBox on it,
I need to move the PictureBox to the position I want with my mouse,
How can I draw a ---(dot line) Rectangle in my MouseMove event to avoid flickering problem...??
Please give me a hand,thanks!!

Dim resources As System.Resources.ResourceManager = New System.Resources.ResourceManager(GetType(Form1))
Dim pic1 As System.Windows.Forms.PictureBox
pic1.Width = 50
pic1.Height = 50
pic1.Image = CType(Resources.GetObject("PictureBox1.Image"), System.Drawing.Bitmap)
PictureBox1.Controls.Add(pic1)

First your gonna run into the problem of the picture box not being transparent. Cause the control is not a transparent control. You have to derive a class from the picturebox and then override the onpaint function to draw your image otherwise its gonna cover up whats behind it looking all crappy.
The flickering problem if you will look at my article on anti flicker you will see how to enable double buffering. Double buffering is turned off by default.
Hope this helps. If you need more information just ask I will try to help.

First thanks for you answers,
I design my project with no transparent picture now,
maybe I have to show it with transparent finally...I hope not... >_<
I type my code below:
<br />
private Point startMoveLocation = Point.Empty;<br />
private Point moveAmount = Point.Empty;<br />
.<br />
.<br />
.<br />
private void pictureBox1_MouseEnter(object sender, System.EventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
pictureBox1.Cursor = System.Windows.Forms.Cursors.Hand;<br />
}<br />
<br />
private void pictureBox1_MouseDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
pictureBox1.Capture = true;<br />
startMoveLocation = new Point(e.X, e.Y); <br />
}<br />
<br />
private void pictureBox1_MouseMove(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
if (pictureBox1.Capture == true)<br />
moveAmount = new Point(e.X-startMoveLocation.X,e.Y-startMoveLocation.Y); <br />
}<br />
<br />
private void pictureBox1_MouseUp(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
pictureBox1.Location = new Point(pictureBox1.Location.X + moveAmount.X,pictureBox1.Location.Y + moveAmount.Y);<br />
pictureBox1.Capture = false;<br />
}<br />
Now I can move the picture as I wish,
but during mouse move,I don't know how to draw a dot line rectangle
to let user know the process,
Can you help me solve this question...??
Thank you very much !!

DataReader gives you a forwatd only reading. So once you go to the end of it ,you can't return to first row again.

You can't use a datareader as your datasource if your binding more than one control to it. You would have to bind them to a datatable in a dataset...

I draw a curve using the DrawCurve method. I also want to have some kind of interaction with the curve when moving the mouse over it. Could someone show me how to decide if a Point is on the curve?
Thanks!
|

Hello,
The way I have seen this done was in a project I worked on in a group for school.
Check out the Region and GraphicsPath classes. Region is found in System.Drawing and GraphicsPath is in System.Drawing.Drawing2D.
1. DrawCurve to screen
2. Create a GraphicsPath and draw to it.
3. Create a Region from the GraphicsPath.
4. Invoke IsVisible( somePoint ) on the Region.
In this case somePoint would be your mouse point.
Hope this helps,
Nathan
---------------------------
Hmmm... what's a signature?
|

|

|

There is a problem with this method. Though the curve is a open end curve, the region seems like a closed region. IsVisible returns true not only when the mouse is over the curve but also inside the region enveloped by the region. Have you encountered the same problem? How did you resolve it?
Thanks!
|
|
|
|
|
Hmmm.... I don't know how to fix that problem right off had. You will have to look through the documentation some more. I am sorry that this did not solve the problem exactly. Please post here again if you find a solution.
Sorry,
Nathan

I found the same problem as above and your description of the problem helped to give me the answer. If the path is closed already, the path.IsVisible(point) should work.
To keep the line as pure looking as possible using pixels, just reverse the points in the array and add them to the original set. Then add them to a closed curve in the path.
<br />
GraphicsPath _curvePath = new GraphicsPath();<br />
List<PointF> closedCurvePoints = new List<PointF>(_curvePoints);<br />
closedCurvePoints.Reverse();<br />
closedCurvePoints.AddRange(_curvePoints);<br />
_curvePath.AddClosedCurve(closedCurvePoints.ToArray());<br />
This worked well for me - even for curves that backed in on themselves. Hopefully it will be helpful to someone else if you have no need for this info anymore
