I'm working on a game API which uses potentially transparent controls for basic layering effects (I don't want anything too fancy just yet). My first problem was enabling transparency, but that was easily solved using SetStyle(). Unfortunately, when I then tried placing a transparent layer over another layer, it shows the form's background color (here, black) through the transparency, instead of the layer beneath.
I was finally able to get the proper effect by making the top-layer control a child of the bottom-layer control, but doing it that way makes some other effects nigh impossible. Is there a way to get transparent controls to display the other controls beneath them? Any help is appreciated.

I would advise you to create you own class for layered effects. Its not as hard as it sounds! My method for creating your app would be to draw all my layers from my custom classes.

This is exactly what it's supposed to do. The color Transparent is anything but. Transparent tells the control's background properties to match those of the parent container. It does NOT make the control Transparent. As you've found out, control-over-control transparency doesn't work the way the term "Transparent" would lead you to believe.
The way around this is to not use controls to draw your graphics. Instead, you should be drawing your graphics to an off-screen buffer and "flip pages" between what's being drawn on and what the user sees, or use DirectX, where you'll have FAR more control over your graphics.

I was afraid of that. Actually, I'm using a custom OnPaint handler, so I guess FillRectangle() et al. is where that "feature" lies?
Thanks for your suggestions. I'd rather not get into DirectX just yet, but if that's what it takes....
P.S. Are there ANY functions (preferably GDI) that handle transparent and semi-transparent colors properly?

Since Windows Forms is based on GDI+, no, there isn't.

Hi,
I have a progress bar in my MDI application in the parent form and I want it to perform step when a condition that depends on a loop variable in the child form is satisfied. What is the simplist way to do that?
In my child form:
<br />
for (i =0 ; i<NUM ; i++)<br />
I have tried to check at regular intervals if the conditions is satisfied or not using a timer in the parent form:
if ( (child->i%1000) == 0 )<br />
this->progressbar->PerformStep();
the problem here is that the steps are all performed at once when the loop is finished!
any ideas?
thanks,
|

First, why not have the child form itself update the progress bar? Then you don't have to do all that polling.
Or if you must do polling, make sure to call Application.DoEvents() and Thread.Sleep() in your wait loop; not doing this is probably what causes the steps to "all [be] performed at once."

Because I don't know how to access a control (progress bar in my case) that is located on a parent form FROM a child one.
The progress bar must be in the parent form because the loop that I'm using is in the (onload event) of the child form.
So the whole idea of this progress bar is to indicate how long the child form will take to be completely load.

If I were you, I would investigate the BackgroundWorker class. There are many examples scattered over the net that show you how to use this with the progressbar to show progress.

I'm looking for a workaround for this .NET bug that
occurs on Win2k. The bug doesn't appear on XP.
1) Create a simple app (In C# or VB).
2) Set the form's property FormBorderStyle=None.
3) Run the app.
Notice that the taskbar only shows the app name, with no icon.
I am using Framework 1.1. Is it a known bug? any solution?

Please help me. I want to save some words which I enter into a textbox in an output file *.txt.
If you can help me, please do it.

if ((myStream = sfd->OpenFile()) != nullptr)
{
try
{
StreamWriter^ txtWriter;
txtWriter = gcnew System::IO::StreamWriter(filename);
txtWriter->Write(textOutput->Text);
txtWriter = nullptr;
textOutput->SelectionStart=0;
textOutput->SelectionLength=0;
txtWriter->Close();
myStream->Close();
}
}
This is something that I tried. My problem is that it doesnt save anything and it gives me a error message like "The file can not be saved because it's in use by another application".
What can I do?

Or Can U post the entire code?

Please do the following changes and let me know if it works:
else
{
myStream->Close(); //Insert this line
StreamWriter^ txtWriter;
txtWriter = gcnew System::IO::StreamWriter(filename);
txtWriter->Write(textOutput->Text);
txtWriter = nullptr;//Remove this line.

How can I read a Xml file from a window form? I want to know some useful function that I can use.
Thanks.

Look in your help files for "XmlDocument".

Samle code from MSDN
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader("books.xml");
reader.WhitespaceHandling = WhitespaceHandling.None;
reader.MoveToContent();
reader.Read();
reader.Skip();
reader.Skip();
doc.Load(reader);
doc.Save(Console.Out);
Cheers,
Suresh
