Hi,

try simply adding the same event handler to several text boxes using properties window in designer.

For furher study, investigate the generated designer.cs code. With a little effort you get the idea what happens at code level.

Hope this get's you going.

Hi,

if you have the same event handler for several Controls (either through Designer, or by code),
then the event handler can figure out which Control fired the event by looking at the first
parameter object sender.

Say e.g. all Controls firing this event are Buttons, then simply do
Button btn=(Button)sender; and you are holding the Button that fired the event.

You may want to be more defensive and use the as instead of a straight cast though.

MDI Forms and focus frustration, please help

I have a problem with mdi forms in my application. There are two mdi forms. They have scroll bars. There is a control on the left mdi form near to the top.

Now the problem is: I scroll the left mdi form to the bottom. I click to the other mdi form. I click back to the left mdi form and when the left one is activated/focused it automatically scrolls to the top where the control is and sets focus to it.

There're absolutely nothing in the code anywhere to do this. There're no .Focus() calls, no OnFocus event, .ActiveControl= etc. Nothing. I couldn't find a way to prevent this and it's driving me insane. I even tried to handle *FOCUS Windows messages it's receiving but failed. Can you please help me find a way to prevent this? I appreciate any help.

I've solved the problem. Turns out mdi form focusing to the control with lowest TabIndex value behavior is by design. Setting TabStop property of every control to false prevents this from happening.

Problem with handling Timer

Faysal19-Jul-08 2:09

19-Jul-08 2:09

Hi All,
I am facing a vary basic problem with timer. I want a timer to start counting an integer i with a start-button-press and stop counting with a stop-button-press. Then start counting again with start-button-press and so on. The code looks like the following sample snippet:

int i=0;
Timer tmrTest = new Timer();

public void OnTimerEvent_test(object source, EventArgs e)
{
   i++;
   txtCounter.Text = i.ToString();
}

private void btnStartTimer_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   tmrTest.Enabled = true;
   tmrTest.Interval = 500;
   tmrTest.Tick += new System.EventHandler(OnTimerEvent_test);
}

private void btnStopTimer_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   tmrTest.Enabled = false;
}

The problem is on start-button-press first time it counts i as i+1 but in second start-button-press it counts i as i+2, for 3rd it's i+3 and so on. But I want the counting to be always i=i+1;

May be this is a very simple issue while handling timer but I failed to get any solution. Please help me to solve this out. And tell me the reason, why is this timer behaving like this?

Thanks in advance
Faysal

Hi, this line should be executed only once ever. The way you have it, each time you click
the start button, it will add a handler to the event, so after N starts, each tick will
increment the counter N times.

Hi,
I'm transmitting Live video over LAN by joining multicast group address "224.0.0.1".At client side, for receiving video I used same group address.
I've read that multi Cast range is from 224.0.0.1 to 224.255.255.255 but I tested my server application with max. 3 clients.
Can any one tell me the video which is transmitting at this address, How many systems can preview it.
And what should be hardware constraints

listbox

I am loading 300 pictures inside the listbox but when i scroll up and down
all the way the memory goes from 32,000k to 689,000k and up and also it doesn't come down.

Form1.cs

LisboxClass lb = new ListBoxclass();
lb.Size = new Size(200, 524);
Form1.Controls.Add(lb);
string[] str = Directory.GetFileSystemEntries(Application.StartupPath + @"\images");

lb.BeginUpdate();
PictureControl picControl;
foreach (string s in str)
{
picControl= new PictureControl(s);
lb.Items.Add(imgcontrol);
}
lb.EndUpdate();

This is how I am drawing Items

Bitmap b = new Bitmap(800, 800);
Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(0, 0, 120, 80);
private void ListBoxclass_DrawItem(object sender, DrawItemEventArgs e)
{

((PictureControl)Items[e.Index]).DrawToBitmap(b, rect);
e.Graphics.DrawImage(b, e.Bounds.X + 40, e.Bounds.Y + 5, 120, 80);
}

For each image file you load, create its thumbnail in the stream to reduce its memory used, then draw to your listbox. Or you can store that thumbnail in imagelist (as cache) then draw to your listbox.

according your code you have to manage at least 300 object that contains image, but in my opinion i will use one object that manage all 300 image

hope it helps
