Hello,
I am using propertyGrid window to display name and its value. I allow the user to enter value and if he enters a wrong value (there is a seperate code to validate), then I am supposed to display the user entered text value in red color (text in red color) or the back ground color of that particular cell alone (not the entire propertyGrid window) in red color. Is this posssible using PropertyGrid?
I can understand that the color of entire propertyGrid can be changed, but I am looking for changing single cell's either the text color or the background color of the particular cell to red.
Thanks in advance

The ProeprtyGrid cannot change the color of individual cells. How each cell is rendered, including color, is left up to the UITypeEditor for each property. You'd have to create a new UITypeEditor for each of the properties that you want to be able to render in a different color.

I tried using UITypeEditor which allows me to paint the cell, but it also displays a small recangular box in the cell, which makes my display look ugly. Can you tell me how to get rid of this small rectangle?
The rectangular box appears as soon as I override the following function of UIEditorType
public override bool GetPaintValueSupported(ITypeDescriptorContext context)
{
//Set to true to implement the PaintValue method
return true;
}
I tried clearing the cell in PaintValue method but that did not work
public override void PaintValue(PaintValueEventArgs e)
{
base.PaintValue(e);
Region reg = new Region(new Rectangle(e.Bounds.X , e.Bounds.Y, e.Bounds.Width+10 , e.Bounds.Height));
Region tempReg = e.Graphics.Clip;
e.Graphics.Clip = reg;
// Tried to clear the entire cell with white color but still the small rectangle appears
e.Graphics.Clear(Color.White);
e.Graphics.Clip = tempReg;
// Fill region also did not work
//e.Graphics.FillRegion(Brushes.Red, reg);
}
}

Since I can't see the "small rectangle" you're talking about, no I can't tell you how to get rid of it.
Perhaps a screen shot would help??

Hi,
I'm using the following user32 functions:
- SetCursorPos() to move the mouse
- SendInput() to give a MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN and MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP
IIRC the x,y parameters of mouse_event describe a relative mouse movement, so I keep them at zero.
Here are my P/Invoke prototypes:
[DllImport("user32.dll", CallingConvention=CallingConvention.StdCall, SetLastError=true)]
public static extern IntPtr SendInput(int count, ref INPUT2 input, int size);
[DllImport("user32.dll", CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall, SetLastError = true)]
public static extern IntPtr SetCursorPos(int x, int y);
public struct MOUSEINPUT {
public int dx;
public int dy;
public int mouseData;
public int dwFlags;
public int time;
public IntPtr dwExtraInfo;
}
public struct INPUT2 {
public uint type1;
public MOUSEINPUT mi1;
public uint type2;
public MOUSEINPUT mi2;
}

That's a fairly clear error message. Somewher in your copying you have omitted an allocation or reference so the main form does not have a variable called TextBox1. Take a look at the form and also the code behind to see which parts are missing. You would probably have found it simpler to add a new text box from scratch rather than doing it this way.

Delete the textbox and copy it again. Sometimes, Visual Studio suffers from selective amnesia in that it copies only a part of the code and leaves the rest.

Hi,
What are the different ways to run a exe file auto in WindowsXP? or we have to just create a autorun.inf file.
|

On my form I have 4 controls that span the width of a form. The controls each take up ~1/4 of the available vertical space and are stacked such that the vertical space is almost completely used.
I'm having trouble getting the controls to correctly resize vertically when I resize the form. I want to maintain the same layout as now, but if I anchor both the Top and Bottom then the upper-left corner of each control is fixed, so they overlap when I resize.
How can I allow the "anchor" point to slide proportionally to the resize and maintain the same aspect?
Thanks

I can usually muddle my way through creating a regular expression but this one has me stumped (even with Expresso). I need to search through the contents of a text box and find each word in an HTML doc, but avoid the text within the tags. I have a Regex that works fine in a plain text file, but not in a doc with tags.
Example: <li>List Item</li>
I'd want to find "List" and "Item" but not "li" or "/li"
If anyone has a Regex pattern that does this I'd love to see it, with thanks.

Alan, try this. The code originally came from the netSpell library, so i'm not 100% it works correctly...
Private _htmlRegex As Regex = New Regex("</[c-g\d]+>|</[i-o\d]+>|</[a\d]+>|</[q-z\d]+>|<[cg]+[^>]*>|<[i-o]+[^>]*>|<[q-z]+[^>]*>|<[a]+[^>]*>|<(\[^\]*\|'[^']*'|[^'\>])*>", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase Or RegexOptions.Compiled)

Just ran it thru Expresso. It actually finds the tags, not the text between them. I have a Regex for stripping html, but I think this one might work better. So I can still use it. Thanks!
Hadn't thought about it before but I've got a copy of NetSpell somewhere. I'll poke around inside and see what I can see.

Didn't find a Regex I could adapt in the NetSpell files. Will keep hammering on the thing. I keep thinking I'm missing something obvious but don't know yet what it is.

Hi All!
Please help, How to create DropDownButton in WindowsForms application?
I do not want to use ToolStripBar with ToolStripDropDownButton. I would inherit from class Button but what is the best way to implement drop down functional?
Thank you!
|

Suggestion:
Using most any paint program, create a very small arrow similar to the one in most drop down buttons. Create it pointing down and save it, then flip it vertically and save it again under a different name. Now you have your up and down arrows for the button.
Drag a regular button onto your form and set the text. Add the down arrow, aligned to the right of the text.
Create a ContextMenuStrip for the button and add the desired items.
Write code so that when the button is clicked once, the button's image changes to the up arrow, and the context menu appears below the button. Next time it's clicked, reset the button image back to the down arrow and close the context menu. You can monitor the button's "state" with a boolean variable and the menu's Visible property.
Also, add a line of code to each event handler in the context menu so that the button's image changes back to the down arrow when a menu item is clicked - since the menu will close.
Not a perfect solution, but I did something similar with ActionScript a few years ago and it worked quite well.
Best

I have a application that has 2 tabs, one tab is wired to show a web page whose .aspx file has auto refresh set. The other tab doesn't access the web page at all. When I access any of the tabs I see that the web page is refreshing(hear the clicking sound), instead I want to disable the web page refresh whenever I access the 2nd tab. I set the "AllowNavigation" property of the webbrowser control to false when tab is switched to the 2nd one and set this property to true when I switch the tab to the 1st one.
But what happens is when I switch back to the 1st tab the auto refresh doesn't work unless and until I click some web page controls. Is there a way to enable/disable auto refresh of a web browser control from Win forms?

And if you navigate to, say, Google when you hide the browser, and navigate back to the .aspx when you show it?
Another alternative would be to download the webpage and to save it directly to a string/a file. Then you could manipulate the webpage before displaying it in the browser. That way you can change any meta-refresh tags before feeding it to the browser
