I think your problem lies in setting the Parent property to be different than MdiParent. I have never verified it, but I assume that when you set the MdiParent property of a form, if that parent is an MDI container, the actual parent of the MDI child is the MdiClient window (see this article[^]) in the parent's client area.
When you change the parent of the MDI child, something probably is not right.
Anyway, if you could show us a screenshot, we could get a better idea of what you want to achieve.

 i am very sorry but i was the one who didn't understand...
i tried your first response
and it works now (and it's a simple solution  )
the double buffer in the example program (article) is slowing things down on my pc,
so i didnt use that one (especially when the application is maximised)
thanx
|

|
|
I am glad I could be of help 
The article link was mainly to give you some information on the MdiClient control. The double buffering is not required
Have a nice day!

It doesnt have a "Font" property, so AFAIK, the Style can't be changed..
You CAN do the following though...
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
toolTip1.BackColor = Color.Black;<br />
toolTip1.ForeColor = Color.Yellow;<br />
toolTip1.SetToolTip(this, "Booya!");<br />
}
|
|
|
|
|
But the tooltip cannot been found in ToolStripItem.
Maybe I can get it by reflection,my purpose is to change the fontsize. how to do it ?
thank u!

Don't think you can do font size :/
I was doing tool-tips for an inventory in a game I was making, and the best I could do was making a semi-transparent form that appears relative to the mouse X/Y co-ords on Mouse_Over :/
Soz :/

Hi Vijay,
Please know that the detault checkBoxes in DataGridView does not have any property to check whether the checkbox is in Checked/Unchecked state. However, on the basis Value property we can check the state in the following manner:
BEGIN CODE
Dim flag As Boolean = False
flag = Me.DataGridView1.Rows(3).Cells(9).Value
If flag = True Then
MsgBox("State is Checked")
Else
MsgBox("State is UnChecked")
End If
END CODE
Hope this helps .
Regards,

I am trying to use .NET delegate to make the form responsive while doing data retrieval.
The form contains lots of controls including a tabcontrol with tabpages.
When i Click the Search Button to retrieve the data, i invoke the LoadRecord Delegate and the RetrieveRecord Method was called, but when i click the next Tab Page the form hangs. Can anyone help me with this?
Heres the codes..
frmBase
Code Snippet
Private Delegate Sub LoadRecordDelegate()
Private LoadRecord As LoadRecordDelegate
Protected Sub ExecuteRetrieveRecord()
LoadRecord = New LoadRecordDelegate(AddressOf RetrieveRecord)
LoadRecord.BeginInvoke(LoadCallBack, LoadRecord)
'Retrieving
End Sub
Protected Overridable Sub RetrieveRecord()
'Override this
End Sub
Private Sub LoadCallBack(ByVal result As IAsyncResult)
LoadRecord.EndInvoke(result)
'Done Retrieving
End Sub
frmMyForm
Code Snippet
class frmMyForm
Inherits frmBase
Protected Overrides Sub RetrieveRecord()
Me.SearchRecord(ReferenceNumber)
End Sub
Private Sub SearchRecord(RefNum as String)
'Some Codes to retrieve information based on the RefNum
'Populate the controls(textboxes,comboboxes,etc.)
End Sub
private sub BtnSearch_CLick
mybase.ExecuteRetrieveRecord
end sub
End Class

Hi,
seems to me you are making illegal cross-thread calls, i.e. accessing Controls by a
thread other than the one that created the Controls.
You can try this in .NET 1.x, or in later .NET versions provided you disable the
cross-thread checkking. Anyway it is the wrong way of doing things, it normally results
in a non-responsive or hanging GUI.
The right way to access Controls from an arbitrary thread is by using Control.InvokeRequired
and Control.Invoke; there is documentation and lots of examples everywhere.

first: all questions on the forum are urgent.

You start to print, request data and than print the data?
Is that your problem?

By keeping track of where you drew it and handling mouse events so you can redraw it.

Well, it's hard to know what you're doing wrong if you don't post the code.
