Well, I have (for Delphi which I'm using most of the time) an Exif-class as well as a IPTC-class which are both able of reading and writing tags. But the point is that there is (as far as I can find) no info about reading and writing ratings in both specifications.

Data Table

I would like to display the cells (it would be 16x16 cells to display) like ListView but I only want to have the cells, not the header row nor the header column (as you can see in datagridview). If I use RichTextBox, it slows down the graphic GUI... I know the table display would be the best for me to use.

Anyone done that?

Unsure | :~

Use template columns. Then in the ItemTemplate you have labels and in the edit template you have text boxes combobox etc. I would guess right now you are doing simple binding which doesn't give you any option to what controls you see when you edit the row.

C# Date functions

Hi, I am hving troubles with inserting Date in my database. I have a field in my table in the databse whicih is Date/Time format. For example if I want to insert s specific date (let's say it is 19th july 2007) i need to insert 19.7.2007. Now that is not the problem. I have a string which is formated correctly. It goes as "19.7.2007". But when I insert it to database it reports error, because the dataset for that table needs a varaiable that is Date format and not a string. In visual Basic.NET i used Cdate function for converting strings in dates. What functions should I use in C#?

Hi, .NET has a DateTime struct that holds both date and time information.
And that is what everyone seems to be using to insert date information into a database
(unless the field is defined as a string that is).

DateTime.Parse, DateTime.ParseExact, DateTime.TryParse, DateTime.TryParseExact.

If you know the format, prefer (Try)ParseExact. Use the Try version if you would prefer to test whether the format matches rather than getting a FormatException exception.

Hi, I want to create a ListBox in which I can Display Data which can be easily viewed from a 10 feet distance. So I need to make my ListBox's Data Appear Large. Any Ideas. Thanks...

PS: I'm Writing a Media Center Application...

Hi,

if your ListBox is showing text only, you can choose any font you like.

anyway, you can decide to draw the items yourself. See DrawMode property, and
MeasureItem/DrawItem events.

There also is a property making it show only an integral number of items at once.

MSDN will tell you all the details.

Control updating is slow

Geert van Horrik19-Jul-07 2:05

Hi all,

I have written a custom control (derived from ComboBox) which lists a lot of users (userid's). I have a splashscreen where I create an instance of my form (I have made it a singleton class) so the loading of the items from the database occurs when I first create the instance (which I can do in my splashscreen).

This all works fine, and the combox items are filled during the splashscreen. However, the real drawing (or updating) occurs when I show the form, so the users still have to wait about 10 seconds before they can actually use the form.

Is there any way I can fill the combobox so it will be usable immediately when I show the form?

Thanks!

Best regards,

Hello,

If you set the Splash as TopMost, you could Show() the Forms you want to initialize before the customer first jumps to the page.
This will have the effect, that the startup will take longer, but the first jump to the form is faster.
Hope it helps!

All the best,

Martin

Thank you for your answer. However, I don't want to show any form.

In my startup, I want to use this code:

<br />
                // Show splash screen<br />
                EASplashScreen splash = new EASplashScreen();<br />
                splash.ShowDialog();<br />
<br />
                // Run application<br />
                Application.Run(MainForm.GetInstance());<br />

The splash screen does the complete initialization such as listing plugins, getting the first instance of the mainform etc. Then, it automatically closes when it is ready.

I then want the application to be completely read (at least the mainform).

Best regards,

Hi,

when adding a lot of items to a ListBox, ListView, ... Control performance gets
improved by:
either adding several items at once (AddRange)
or (much better) to temporarily disable the visual update (with Control.SuspendLayout and Control.ResumeLayout).

A good splash screen lets the initialization proceed in the background, and disappears
when initialization is done (possibly with a minimum delay enforced, so the user can
read and enjoy the splash).

BTW obviously you must obey the "no cross-thread" rule: controls should be
manipulated only by the thread that created them.
