problem displaying a usercontrol

I have a problem i was hoping someone could help me.

I have a windows form and based on a menu selection i'll display a specific user control uc1 that has various information on it (like a calender with appts on it) when i press down on the mouse I want to present another user control uc2 (this is a custom drawn via gdi+) at a specific location. I set the uc2.Location as to where I want uc2 to appear. This is where my problem occurs. Wherever i press the mouse on uc1 it uc2 always appears at a location just above and left of the mouse based on the location where i press the mouse on uc1. also note when i press the mouse down uc2 initially briefy appears where i want it but than moves/appears just above and left of the mouse. I also dispose of uc2 when the mouseup event fires.

i also use the mousedown event to move uc2. this works fine (but with the location problem) and uc2 moves fine but starts from the location just above and left of the mouse not where i had set the position via uc2.Location.

note i also use uc2.visible=true and uc2.BringToFront()

Does anybody have any ideas?

As always - thanks in advance for your help

Hi all!!!

i'm quite bored with a problem I can't solve.
I'm doing a program which imitates the mouse, and I need that when I do "click" (double click or whatever) in another application, although the latter is actived now, I want my window to still keep the keyboard input to can handle it.

I have try with SetFocus() and GetFocus() from Windows API but I can't make it works.
If you could help me,it would be great;)

Thanks,

ciao!

Thanks Mazdak...

I was just working with hooks now, and I succeded getting all the keyboard input. But then I have a new problem which seems easier but I cannot solve.

In a form with some controls (all of them buttons) how can I know wich button is selected? I'm trying with the focused and containsfocus property but it's not working.

And the last thing... in case I could know which control is selected, how could I generate the click event of this button without actually "click" it?..

Thanks;)

Not sure but you can look through:

GetFocus() or GetGUIThreadInfo() API

Look for SendMessage() API. I remember that there are some samples in CP. Use search textbox at the top of the page.

On a textbox? What kind of textbox are we asking about -- WinForms, webforms, html, etc?

Sure. Using System.Runtime.Serialization(.Formatters.Binary):

Example:

            string[] a = new string[3]{"One", "Two", "Three"};<br />
<br />
            BinaryFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter();<br />
            MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream();<br />
            formatter.Serialize(stream, a);<br />
<br />
            stream.Position = 0;<br />
            string[] b = (string[])formatter.Deserialize(stream);

Hope this helps,

As an addendum to turbochimp's example, please reference my response[^] to your post in the ASP.NET forum. In the future, please don't cross-post to multiple forums. At least give people a couple of days to answer the first post before reposting to another forum.

Hope that helps. Smile | :)

Hey

I am using a TreeView
I have made my own TreeNode that is made fron refular TreeNode(it saves obj to)
I have added this own made TreeNodes to my TreeView and this looks good.

But when i want to change anything in the tree i update the entire tree, this mens that al catalogs is colapsed?

I have tryed to store
Treenode tmp = TreeView.SelectedNode;
Do the changes
TreeView.SelectedNode = tmp;
TreeView.SelectedNote.EnsureVisibility

But when it is running TreeView.SelectedNote.EnsureVisibility i get an error about teh instans is null? but its not?

Is there any way to open up so the last selected is visible? or cant i make my own TreeNode class like this?

Hey!

I have solwe one bit of the problem.

When i select an item in thre tree and this item is an new item, then is vill change to old item with old imageIndex(icon).

I am doing this by :

tmpNode.SelectedImageIndex = 2;

where 2 is the index for old image, and this works fine until i select anotner treenode in the tree, then the icon is going back to be new again?

I have stated in my own made TreeNode that it is Visited TRUE, and this means that it is old.

The change to old icon is appering when i release the mouse button on another Treenode.

Any ide why it is doing this?

I would look at buying in a licensing solution from a third party - these people should be specialists in that area and will be much better at it than you are. Licence management in notoriously difficult and even the "experts" don't really get it right.
