Thank you, Makes sense however i get this message when i input the code... System.EventArgs' does not contain a definition for 'Handled' once again i am sure this would be something easily fixed by someone with moderate experience. Any help would be appreciated

EventArgs is a base class, the KeyPressed event gets passed KeyPressedEventArgs. I may be wrong it may be the KeyUp event that you need to handle.

i added the EventArgs class, It didn't do anything. So i need to define "handled"
this
e.Handled = ! ( Char.IsNumeric(e.KeyChar) || Char.IsControl(e.KeyChar));
I'm terribly confused, but the good news that generally happens right before i begin to understand everything. So in this case what is "Handled" a method field or a constructor? and what do u recommend i do about defining it?

Ok never mind i need to place this code inside a method thats tied to an event but the same problem still exists and im not all that sure of how to write that method.

You should use the KeyPress event; the KeyPressEventArgs has a "Handled" member
that you can set true for characters (not arbitrary keys) that you want to refuse.

HAndled is a property on the KeyPressedEventArgs object, which is passed into an event handler for the key press event. If you get click on your textbox int he designer, click the lightning on the properties window, go down to 'KeyPress' and type in 'OnKeyPress', you'll get the method that needs the above code.

almost works but i get this message
c:\Visual C# Step by Step\Chapter 1\Suduko1.1\Form1.cs(3223): 'char' does not contain a definition for 'IsNumeric'
any suggestions

|

maybe it's Char ? Or maybe it's char.IsNumber
It's char.IsNumber. Intellisense is your friend....

I'm trying to create a structure that contains an array of another structure within it and keep getting compile errors: Here's what I'm trying to do:
public struct MyState
{
int Id;
byte state;
}
// This gives me a compile error - cannot have instance field initializers in struct
public struct MyArray
{
MyState[] state = new MyState(100);
}
so I tried this - Gives me a compile error also
// fixed size buffer must be one of the following int, bool, etc...
public struct MyArray
{
fixed MyState state[100];
}
Any ideas - I'm receiving a message from a legacy system that has the message format wired to a specific byte layout.

MyState[] state;
is an array reference; it will start life with the value null ( compare to TextBox tb; )
You can assign something to it with code within a method, or as an initializer if
it is a member of a class, but not in a member of a struct (struct members dont take
an initializer)
In a struct, you should use a constructor if you need some data to be initialized inside
the definition of the struct.
So you could write:
public struct MyArray {
MyState[] state;
public MyArray() {
state = new MyState[100];
}
}
and there are some variations, you could get the size as a parameter in the constructor,
or you could create (=call new) the array at a later point in time, i.e. within the
code that uses your MyArray.

Hi,
I'm trying too add MouseClick event or any event on WIA video stream overlay.
WIA video is previewed in window form which has registered events. But events aren't triggered when mouse is over WIA video overlay.
Overlay is previewed in the form like this:
wiaVideo = new WiaVideoClass();
wiaVideo.CreateVideoByWiaDevID( wiaDeviceID, window.Handle, 0, 1 );
How can I catch MouseClick Event over wiaVideo?
Thanks
|

|

If your WiaVideoClass has an Enabled property and your app functionality allows it, try
setting it false, so the mouse events go to the underlying control.

Thanks for the quick answer,
but WiaVideoClass does not have Enabled property. I'm wondering is this possible to do without any involvement of WIA object (just by using underlying control)?
|
|
|
|
|
OK.
Please tell more about WiaVideoClass (purpose, origin, source available, does it need
user interaction, etc).

Thanks for trying to help!
Video overlay is placed in the Control like this:
wiaVideo = new WiaVideoClass();
wiaVideo.CreateVideoByWiaDevID( wiaDeviceID, window.Handle, 0, 1 );
WiaVideoClass looks like this:
namespace WIAVIDEOLib
{
[Guid("3908C3CD-4478-4536-AF2F-10C25D4EF89A")]
[TypeLibType(2)]
[ClassInterface(0)]
public class WiaVideoClass : IWiaVideo, WiaVideo
{
public WiaVideoClass();
[DispId(2)]
public virtual string ImagesDirectory { get; set; }
[DispId(1)]
public virtual int PreviewVisible { get; set; }
public virtual void CreateVideoByDevNum(uint uiDeviceNumber, IntPtr hwndParent, int bStretchToFitParent, int bAutoBeginPlayback);
public virtual void CreateVideoByName(string bstrFriendlyName, IntPtr hwndParent, int bStretchToFitParent, int bAutoBeginPlayback);
public virtual void CreateVideoByWiaDevID(string bstrWiaDeviceID, IntPtr hwndParent, int bStretchToFitParent, int bAutoBeginPlayback);
public virtual void DestroyVideo();
public virtual WIAVIDEO_STATE GetCurrentState();
public virtual void Pause();
public virtual void Play();
public virtual void ResizeVideo(int bStretchToFitParent);
public virtual void TakePicture(out string pbstrNewImageFilename);
}
}
Whole example is from here:

Thanks again!

Hi guys, I have a small app which contains 3 forms. Within each form form_load method I am setting threadign sleep to 1200. All I want to do is how can i display a progress bar after each formload is done.
Can somebody how me or provide some examples
Thanks

Why would you sleep the thread ? If the thread is sleeping, it can't run anything. You'd need to do it differently

I have seen some applications like photoshop as soon as you open they have a screen and that stays till the whole app is loaded. I want to do something like that too.
so let's say in my form i am trying to open a notepad application while the system is loading i want to display a progress bar based oh how much it has been loaded. I want to build something like that.
Thanks
|
|

|

OK, well, that's different. I create a splash screen as a form, make a static instance of it, and create/show it as the first step in my app. If I had a progress bar on there, I'd expose a method to step the bar, and call it as key steps in my loading process occured.

Could you please show some example for my better understanding.

The most striking word in Christian's reply was "splash". Dit you search for it on
CodeProject ? This site has thousands of articles, some are dealing with your problem,
I'm sure.
Luc Pattyn

At it's most obvious, create a form that has a progress bar in it, and a public method called Step() which moves the progress bar forward. Call it SplashDlg.
In your main form class make it a variable:
public static SplashDlg splash;
As early as you can in your code, create it:
splash = new SplashDlg();
splash.Show();
where-ever your program progresses in the things it has to do to load, call this:
splash.Step();
Work out how many steps you take and set the progress bar to have that many, and you're done.
OR, as Luc said, take the word 'splash' as a clue on what to google for more info.

How can I get the mouse position from desktop?

Control.MousePosition gets the position of the mouse cursor in screen coordinates.
