In that case you do not need MDI (Multiple Document Interface).
Either design your different views as UserControls or as a Form. The process is pretty much the same.
Then in the code that you use when a node is selected (I don't know if you are using BeforeSelect/AfterSelect or something else), your code should look something like this.
I am assuming the Panel on the right is called displayPanel, and that you decide to use names for your views like WhateverView
this.displayPanel.Controls.Clear();
WhateverView newView = new WhateverView();
newView.Dock = DockStyles.Fill;
this.displayPanel.Controls.Add(newView);
This code should work for a single type of 'view'
If you are using Form descendants you might also like to set their FormBorderStyle to FormBorderStyle.None
Just to see if it works as you would like, decide on one node, for now, and therefore one 'view' and use the code above to test it.
Of course you will need a way to decide which type of view to use depending on the node selected, assuming that you have more than one. For that you might want to investigate the Factory Pattern
Put (very) simply, this is a class that will return the right sort of 'view' when asked.
e.g the line WhateverView newView = ViewFactory.GetView("mp3"); will give you a view for looking at MP3 stuff.
the line WhateverView newView = ViewFactory.GetView("folder"); will give you a view for looking at Folder stuff.
There are many ways to select which type of 'view', this is just one of them.

Hi
You want to move the picture box ?
|
|
|
|
|
No, I don't want to move the picturebox, I want to move the image file (the file from which the image into the picturebox was loaded).
Excuse me for buttin' in, but I'm interrupt driven.

Don't use Image.FromFile as it locks the file, use Image.FromStream instead.

Is there a way to resolve an adresse IP that use no-ip.com stuff.
I tryed some code but all i obtain is the IP of "no-ip.com" not my computer IP.
what you think is it possible? or maybe using dyndns ?
|

i did ping Mysite.no-ip.biz that return to my own pc apache website.
it does return some IP 75.12.etc.......
so this IP is the IP of no-ip.com, not my computer IP wich start by 86.123.........
if ping cmd fail resolve my ip i doubt a c# code will do it.
At least i have no idea how.

My user will not have access to this file.
i would do a something in c# code so user know everyday my new IP and send socket to me.
for now i have to bypass and have myserver store the IP in a well known rendezvouz point Database".
would be more simple if i was able to make user machine ping mysite.no-IP.com then being able resolve the true IP behind no-ip.com proxy.

What if you connect a TCP socket to that IP and then check the RemoteEndPoint?
It's a wild guess, but it could work.. or actually, it shouldn't. But if it does anyway, then it's cool.

Add imagelist control to your application
add icons to this image list
now you can get the NotifyIcon value from this imagelist by icon index ...
I know nothing , I know nothing ...

Take a look at Animating Shell Tray Icon with - C#[^]. Judging by the title, it might have the answer.

I think it looks like we all need to get used to a world where people think its easier to be a programmer than it is to use a mind-boggling search engine search as Google 
Life goes very fast. Tomorrow, today is already yesterday.

In his/her defense - that article is rated pretty low, I probably wouldn't have paid a great deal of attention to it if I'd found it.

That might well be true.
The fact remains, however that a search on either Google or even 'bing' gives multiple hits. I simply pointed the OP at that one because it was on the first page returned, and I noticed that it was on CodeProject.
The OP stated that he/she had seen other apps that did it, so the chances of there being no hits was pretty remote.
