Does exist the possibility set color transparent within Vb.Image?
Any Method.
FreeImage, MS WIA, GDIPlus, CopyMemory, ...
By sample: I have VB.Image1 with zone of transparency. One Vb.Image1 On Form. Can be change this Image directly by change Alpha bytes of pixels of this Image1 ? How use CopyMemory in this case?
Or How use for this case the function Image1.Picture.Render ?
For VB6.
Thanks.

not vb6...but maybe it can help. Here is how I set transparency on an image it in VS2005:
Dim x As System.Drawing.Bitmap = imgMain.Image
x.MakeTransparent(dlgColor.Color)
imgMain.Image = x

Thank you, Kschuler. I will try do it. One time similar VS2005 code made a BMP Image transparent. All was Ok. But for VB6 this BMP Image had bad format. Do you know it?

Sorry. I don't use VB6, so I really don't have a compatible answer for you. Good Luck.

Hello,everyone! I tried to use Sub like below to caculate. But when the project run, the two textboxes which I wanted to get their "Text" value could not find.Could anyone give me some suggestions or help? Thank you!
Public Function TotalSub(ByVal j As Integer, ByVal diameter As String, ByVal thickness As String, ByVal material As String)
Dim txtGG, txtYL As TextBox
Dim b As String = ""
Dim sum As Single = 0
For Each ctrl As Control In frmQia.Controls
If Not TypeOf ctrl Is TextBox Then Continue For
For i = 1 To j
If ctrl.Name = "txtTJGG" & i Then
txtGG = ctrl
ElseIf ctrl.Name = "txtTJYL" & i Then
txtYL = ctrl
End If
b = Caculate.Weight_Sub(diameter, txtGG.Text, thickness, material, txtYL.Text)
sum += CSng(b)
Next
Next
Return sum
End Function
(I have try to find textboxes like these code in another project with only one form, it could find them. So I don't know why it didn't work when it in a project with some forms )

because your TextBoxes have names you are not looking for?
because they aren't part of your Form, but are part of another container (Panel, GroupBox, ...)?
because they aren't exactly TextBoxes? (maybe MaskedTextBox)
because your input parameters are wrong? (such as j=0)
because you are calling the SUB when the Form isn't holding anything yet/any more?
your guess could be even better as mine...

Hi
It might be handy to emit the name and types of the controls that you encounter to the debugger. Something similar to the code below would reveal the names of the components on your form that get looped;
Public Function TotalSub(ByVal j As Integer, ByVal diameter As String, ByVal thickness As String, ByVal material As String)
Dim txtGG, txtYL As TextBox
Dim b As String = ""
Dim sum As Single = 0
For Each ctrl As Control In frmQia.Controls
System.Diagnostics.Debugger.WriteLine ("Type {0}, named {1}", ctrl.GetType().FullName, ctrl.Name)
If Not TypeOf ctrl Is TextBox Then Continue For
For i = 1 To j
If ctrl.Name = "txtTJGG" & i Then
txtGG = ctrl
I'm guessing that the TextBox is contained inside another control. That means that you'd have to loop the Controls-collection of the Control that you've put the textbox in.

Did you put these TextBoxs in another container on the Form such as a Panel?? If they are inside another container, you won't find them because they are not in the Forms Controls collection.

Hi,everyone!The Textboxes were in a Tabpage which was in the Form I wrote in code to find. So I should find textboxes I need in frmQia.Tabcontrol1?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes you would go through the controls on the tab page
e.g. where 0 is the tab page you want to check for controls
For Each ctrl As Control In TabControl1.TabPages(0).Controls
.... do checks and other stuff here

Hi,Simon! I have tried what like you said,but it didn't find the textboxes.In this project, the Form "frmQia" was Inited after I clicked a button and after I inputed some textes in it, I would leave it. The sub that I wrote will be called in another Button_Click event after I leave the form.I think the form "frmQia" has hold the textboxes and their name were right.So...What happened to me...

It sounds as if you are trying to get values from one form by clicking a button on a different form.
If so, Passing Values between Forms in .NET 1.x with C# and VB.NET examples[^] might be useful to you.

i have this code:
type
Symbol = string[8];
SymTab = array[1..1000] of Symbol;
TabPtr = ^SymTab;
var
ST: array[1..MaxEntry] of Symbol;
SType: array[1..MaxEntry] of char;
132 function Lookup(T: TabPtr; s: string; n: integer): integer;
133 var
134 i: integer;
135 found: Boolean;
136 begin
137 found := false;
138 i := n;
139 while (i > n) and not found do
140 if s = T^[i] then
141 found := true
142 else
143 dec(i);
144 Lookup := i;
145 end;
152 function InTable(n: Symbol): Boolean;
153 begin
154 InTable := Lookup(@ST, n, MaxEntry) <> 0;
155 end;
when i complier with gpc , it will print this:Tiny10.pas: In function `InTable':
<b>Tiny10.pas:154: error: passing arg 1 of `Lookup' from incompatible pointer type
Tiny10.pas:132: error: routine declaration</b>
can you tell me why? actually,i just know C++, i learn pascal for i read a book which use it.
thank you

Hi,
1.
this is not the right forum for this. Your code might be Pascal, it certainly isn't Visual Basic.
2.
I don't know the answer, I would however try again without the '@' in line 154
3.
yes, I use line numbers to my advantage, and so should you; tell your IDE to show line numbers, look at such details when the compiler or run-time reports problems, and when you post, indicate which line has what line number of interest.
|
|
|
|

This is Pascal, not VB. Maybe the Delphi forum would have been better for this question. Anyway:
ST is declared as array[1..MaxEntry] of Symbol
TabPtr is declared as ^SymTab (pointer to SymTab)
T parameter in Lookup function is declared as TabPtr -- ^SymTab
So, declare ST as SymTab and it should work.

Hi All,
I'm writing a simple sql editor for our solid databases, and after the information has been retrieved I need to be able to display the field lenght for the column on the Database.
I fill the datagridview like this:
Private Sub applysql(ByVal query As String, Optional ByVal transaction As Odbc.OdbcTransaction = Nothing)<br />
Try<br />
Dim command As New Odbc.OdbcCommand(query, solid, transaction)<br />
datareader = command.ExecuteReader<br />
<br />
bindingsource.DataSource = datareader<br />
resultsdatgdvw.DataSource = bindingsource<br />
resultsdatgdvw.Update()<br />
resultsdatgdvw.AutoResizeColumns(DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.ColumnHeader)<br />
resultslbl.Text = "Returned " & resultsdatgdvw.RowCount & " rows"<br />
If Rollbackbtn.Enabled = False Then<br />
transaction.Commit()<br />
End If<br />
<br />
datareader.close()<br />
datareader.dispose()<br />
Catch ex As Exception<br />
MsgBox(ex.Message)<br />
End Try<br />
End Sub
and then wnat to display the tooltip with the information on like this:
Private Sub resultsdatgdvw_CellToolTipTextNeeded(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellToolTipTextNeededEventArgs) Handles resultsdatgdvw.CellToolTipTextNeeded<br />
If e.ColumnIndex > -1 Then<br />
e.ToolTipText = "Type: " & resultsdatgdvw.Columns(e.ColumnIndex).ValueType.ToString & " Length: " & 'Here is where I need to find the max length of the field <br />
End If<br />
End Sub
Any help appreciated!

Chris,
to get the metadata for the database objects, i think you need to look at using sys.Objects/sys.Columns in your query. Probably simpler if you add a sp to the db and call that.

Hi thanks for the advice (although I don't have a clue what a 'sp' is!)
I found the info I needed in the following way:
once I retirved the data and updated the datagrid view I created a seperate datatable and filled it with the schema table of the datareader
bindingsource.DataSource = datareader
resultsdatgdvw.DataSource = bindingsource
resultsdatgdvw.Update()
resultsdatgdvw.AutoResizeColumns(DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.ColumnHeader)
Dim datatable As New DataTable
datatable = datareader.GetSchemaTable()
This puts the metadata for the columns into a table. I then looped round the rows in this table (each row being a column in the datareader) using each rows 'ItemArray' property to first map the row to the column header in the datagrid - ItemArray(0) - and then getting the type - via the datagrids column valuetype - and then maxlength - ItemArray(2) - and then nullable boolean - ItemArray(8).
I added all of this to the header cell of the column corresponding to the row in the datagrid view (I removed the tooltip from the other cells)
For Each row As DataRow In datatable.Rows
Try
resultsdatgdvw.Columns(row.ItemArray(0).ToString).HeaderCell.ToolTipText = "Type: " & resultsdatgdvw.Columns(row.ItemArray(0).ToString).ValueType.ToString.Replace("System.", "") & " Length: " & row.ItemArray(2).ToString & " Nullable: " & row.ItemArray(8).ToString
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
Next
datatable.Dispose()
For some reason the 'key' value in the ItemArray didn't return the correct value but I'm guessing that's just the database I'm using..

The file saved by this sub contains only a black rectange of the correct size. I have also tried bmp and jpg with same results.
I am using Vista 64 bit operating system and Visual Studio 2010, Traget CPU: x64, Traget FRamework: .NET Framework 4.
Private Sub MAIN_paint(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Paint
Dim tHeights, tWidth As Integer
'Define the text and layout
Dim txt As String = "Verdicrete Countertops"
Dim the_Font As New Drawing.Font("Helvetica", 28.5, FontStyle.Regular, GraphicsUnit.Pixel)
Dim string_size As SizeF = e.Graphics.MeasureString(txt, the_Font)
tHeights = CInt(string_size.Height)
tWidth = CInt(string_size.Width)
Dim Bitmap As New System.Drawing.Bitmap(tWidth, tHeights)
Using gr As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(Bitmap)
Dim objBrushBackColor As New SolidBrush(Color.White)
'writes to bitmap and hence the file saved
gr.DrawString(txt, the_Font, Brushes.Black, 0, 0)
' writes to screen only
e.Graphics.DrawString(txt, the_Font, Brushes.Black, 0, 0)
Bitmap.Save("c:\windows\temp\Verdicrete.gif", System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.gif)
End Using
Bitmap.Dispose()
End Sub
