I am totally new to the VS IDE, I have always used the Borland IDE's.
Under New > Projects I have 4 options
Windows App
Web App
Web Service
Console App
Under New > File
There are several options not one called Class Library.
I know this is a lame question but I'm just not used to the VS IDE. So how do I start my new class library just add a new Text file and code there?
There is no visible option I can find for 1. class library or 2. windows control library.
TIA (I know I sound really green, but unfamiliarity is the problem, coding is no trouble)

Basically start an empty project, then add a class, by rightclicking in the solution explorer. Now, rightclick the project in solution explorer, goto properties. Select output type as class library, once you click apply, you will see the extension becomes ".dll" and you can now reference that assembly, once compiled 
Hope this helps

 Hanging head with embarassment...
Thanks for that, still have a problem though.
The project properties sheet does not have an Output Type field. I found the help article but VS isn't displaying as the help file describes.
Are you sure this isn't a limitation because I have the standard edition?
TIA

Thats exactly why you don't have that option. That is the limitation of Visual C# Standard (since they can't actually cripple the compiler since it is used by ASP.NET)

Thats a bit stupid 
Can you actually compile a project on the Learning edition? 
Cheers

Are you suggesting that it is still possible, i.e. the IDE doesn't provide the option but the good ole compiler will still compile it, if I go the long way and write the assembly source code. 
I'm just trying to learn I don't want to fork out for the Pro edition just to create an assembly. Especially as my assembly is just going to contain some forms, nothing fancy.

I have the standard addition as well and ran into the same problems you have. However the ide is fairly customizable and I was able to add new wizards to create both a class library and the application config files (which are not present in the standard edition). In other words, when I select "add new item" from solution explorer a template is their for the creation of a class library. It's pretty simple. Checkout the following article. Just modify the template for your needs.
http://softwaredev.earthweb.com/msnet/article/0,,10839_1463201_2,00.html
If you need additional help, send me an email. I've got templates already created.

I thought someone would have come up with something Probably as easy as copying the wizards probably. Not that I ever use any!

Please, explain how do I use
<br />
ToolBox.ToolBoxTabs.Item(...).ToolBoxItems.Add(..., ... ,vsToolBoxItemFormat.vsToolBoxItemFormatDotNETComponent) <br />
method in order to add my components into ToolBox.
Thank you in advance,
Pavel

Sub ToolBoxAddExample()
' This adds a Text item to the first tab of the Toolbox.
' Define the variables and create an object reference to the IDE's
' ToolBox object.
Dim win As Window = DTE.Windows.Item(Constants.vsWindowKindToolbox)
Dim objToolbox As ToolBox = win.Object
Dim colTbxTabs As ToolBoxTabs
' Create an object reference to the ToolBoxTabs object.
colTbxTabs = objToolbox.ToolBoxTabs
' Add a new Text item to the first tab in the Toolbox.
colTbxTabs.Item(1).ToolBoxItems.Add("New Text Item", "Some text to add to the document.", vsToolBoxItemFormat.vsToolBoxItemFormatText)
End Sub

Aaaaaaaaaah! VB.NET in the C# forum! What has the world come to?!?!?! I never thought I'd live to see the day! Run for the hills! Goodbye cruel world....(Just kidding though, I realize that for anyone developing macros that we must use VB.NET  )

can you give me an idea if there is a way to draw a line with net and then when I click on it to be able to change it?
I want to use the image classes in .NET.

I think the best method is to draw your cad data with OpenGL, because you can implement zooming, moving, ... very easy and use some click events on some objects, like lines, points and so on.

Maybe with a metafile?? the only problem would be hit testing for the elements...

this line of code
IFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter();Stream stream = new FileStream("MyFile.bin", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.None);formatter.Serialize(stream, obj);stream.Close();
alwas write data at the end of file or not ?
i mean there are alot of Objects .
where it write in the file?
this line of code

I need to catch mouse events, even when the mouse is not over any of my forms or controls.
Ideally, I could selectively choose to either pass on the message to the window that should have gotten it, or trap it.
Anybody have an idea?
|
|
|
|
|
Fortunately, there is no C# way of doing this : mouse events are attached to controls.

Can I do it using interop?
|
|

I don't if it works or not. Because I've never used this feature
Correct me if I am wrong
There is a property called Capture in Control Class. It can be
set to true if you wish to capture all mouse events, even outside
the control's borders.
The following text is copied from MSDN:
---
When a control has captured the mouse, it receives mouse input whether or not the cursor is within its borders. The mouse is typically only captured during drag operations.
Only the foreground window can capture the mouse. When a background window attempts to do so, the window receives messages only for mouse events that occur when the mouse cursor is within the visible portion of the window. Also, even if the foreground window has captured the mouse, the user can still click another window, bringing it to the foreground.
When the mouse is captured, shortcut keys do not work.
---
Hope this would help

just tested it.
It looks the scope is rather limited. Even you set it true,
you still can't capture mouse events outside its top parent
control...
|
|
|
|
|
Hmmm, that isn't very helpful in this situation, but good to know overall.
Anybody else?
|
|
|
|
|
there's useful project on "the evil other site"
http://www.codeguru.com/system/Lock.shtml
the secret is: you need to install a system-hook. the one capturing mouse-events needs to reside in a dll.
i once did that with C++ but i have no idea whether this works with C#...

my userControl derived control responds to the mouse wheel when the app starts, but as soon as the focus passes over to something else, the mouse wheel doesnt work, even after manually scrolling the bar, and clicking in the area of the control, to make sure it has focus, or is there something special needed to actually give it focus?

Do you mean with or without the cursor positioned over the control?
If you mean with the cursor not over the control, thats just the way scrolling with a wheel works.
Take this browser window for instance; resize it so it only takes up half the screen, then place the cursor over the non-browser portion of the screen. If you move the mouse wheel the window will no longer scroll.
