Re: Order/sort controls For each ctrl as Control in pnlMain.Controls

Erhm, 'For Each' loops do not guarantee to retrieve objects from a collection in 'the correct' order.. However, a 'for' loop does...

<br />
For (int iControlCount = 0; iControlCount < pnlMain.Controls.Count; iControlCount++)<br />
{<br />
    Control childControl = pnlMain.Controls[iControlCount];<br />
}<br />

However, since you want to retrieve the controls depening on their location, this loop still doesn't work, because the For loop will retrieve all controls in order they were added to pnlMain...

You should loop through the controls and then compare the left & top properties and sort them accordingly..

Wow. A lot of people I know are having boys or girls. You really want to get your story published in a medical journal.

When is it never urgent. And no - I'm not going to.

Finally - have you looked at the name of the forum? Do you really think this is the most appropriate place to post this question?

Actually it reminds me of when I was learning Spanish. I was standing in line at a McDonalds and I was practicing with my (then) Spanish girlfriend and I said "Voy a tener un Big Mac" (Lit. I am going to have a big mac) and she burst into a fit of giggles. It seems that I said I was going to give birth to a big mac. What I should have said was "Voy a tomar un Big Mac" (Lit. I am going to take a big mac).

how to show image during saving data?

Hello Friend!

I've built a windows application.
now I want to show any gif image while system is busy to save data in data base. after completing save operation the image will be invisible. again it will be visible during saving data.

How can I do this?
Please, help me.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!

create a backgroundworker for saving the data.
Before calling the RunWorkerAsync() method show your image.
In the BackGroundWorker_RunWorkerCompleted Method you can hide the image again.

You use the BGW (backGroundWorker) to prevent a freeze of the form

If you use a _RunWorkerCompleted-method (reporting the progress) you can even change the image into another image!

Using SourceGrid, unable to use CopyPasteSelection from ContextMenuStyle enum item. [modified]

Hi,

Using SourceGrid, unable to use "CopyPasteSelection" from ContextMenuStyle enum....

I am using SourceGrid to display my records, with editable cell. I have a requirement to copy/paste existing row in new row. But here this grid has been little bit customized for some purpose. We are using another class file to doing this, and this class generates the object of Grid. Now this is the problem here, I am not getting the enum item to set the "ContextMenuStyle".

I can set SelectionMode like this :
this.Selection.SelectionMode = GridSelectionMode.Row;

but unable to set ContextMenuStyle :
this."ContextMenuStyle:NOT ABLE TO FIND THE ENUM IN THE LIST TO SET" = ????

Please someone help, or give some idea to resolve this Issues. I am not sure that this been affected by customization.

Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards: Madhusudan

MDI child in panel problem [modified]

invader8231-Mar-08 4:54

i have a splitcontainer on my mdi-parent form,
i want to use the right panel (panel2) as the mdi client area
i tried the following code:

childform.MdiParent = this;
childform.Parent = this.splitContainer1.Panel2;
childform.Show();

I can now select the client window inside the panel and drag it.
but the border of the client window still appears like it is not active. Frown | :(

what am i doing wrong? Confused | :confused:

Apparently, the MdiClient control (which contains MDI children) is docked to fill the parent window. What I have done in the past is create a regular Splitter[^] (not a SplitContainer) and dock it to one side of the main form (left in your case), next to the panel you want to resize. That way you get a resizable panel docked to the side, with the MdiClient control covering the rest of your window.

I hope this helps!

thanks, but i think you missunderstood my problem, there is no problem with the docking and i can select the child window, drag it it all works.
only the active mdi child window doesnt look like it is active:

this is what i mean with a window being active or not active:
http://www.functionx.com/win32/images/active1.gif
just something with the appearance...

i can't show you a screenshot at the moment (working on a different computer now)

but thanks anyway.

I think your problem lies in setting the Parent property to be different than MdiParent. I have never verified it, but I assume that when you set the MdiParent property of a form, if that parent is an MDI container, the actual parent of the MDI child is the MdiClient window (see this article[^]) in the parent's client area.

When you change the parent of the MDI child, something probably is not right.

Anyway, if you could show us a screenshot, we could get a better idea of what you want to achieve.

i am very sorry but i was the one who didn't understand...
i tried your first response
and it works now (and it's a simple solution Big Grin | :-D

)

the double buffer in the example program (article) is slowing things down on my pc,
so i didnt use that one (especially when the application is maximised)

thanx

The article link was mainly to give you some information on the MdiClient control. The double buffering is not required Smile | :)

It doesnt have a "Font" property, so AFAIK, the Style can't be changed..

You CAN do the following though...

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
        {<br />
            toolTip1.BackColor = Color.Black;<br />
            toolTip1.ForeColor = Color.Yellow;<br />
            toolTip1.SetToolTip(this, "Booya!");<br />
        }

Don't think you can do font size :/

I was doing tool-tips for an inventory in a game I was making, and the best I could do was making a semi-transparent form that appears relative to the mouse X/Y co-ords on Mouse_Over :/

Hi Vijay,

Please know that the detault checkBoxes in DataGridView does not have any property to check whether the checkbox is in Checked/Unchecked state. However, on the basis Value property we can check the state in the following manner:

BEGIN CODE

Dim flag As Boolean = False

flag = Me.DataGridView1.Rows(3).Cells(9).Value

If flag = True Then

MsgBox("State is Checked")

Else

MsgBox("State is UnChecked")

End If

END CODE

Hope this helps Smile | :)
