Can we add a textbox & button to a listview - C# Discussion Boards

Re: Getting an IntPtr handle to an instance of the executable file that contains a resource.

Whoa. Jumps out and grabs you when it's in Bold!

Smile | :)

I guess I need to learn to *read*! I suppose I was so intent on loading and embedded resource I just assumed this was the method (what other method is there?). So this *does* require calling into LoadLibrary to get the hinstance.

I'm going to have to look around to see what method to use to retrieve my managed resources, because that's the way I want to do it. I hope that isn't some odd implementation of "FromFile", even as the resources are managed -- maybe so?

In fact it's rather easy. Just use the Windows Forms designer and assign an image (e.g. to a PictureBox).

Then take a look at the MyForm.Designer.cs file and see the designer-generated code that loads from the resource.

Adapt it and do it in a similar way.

I want to use Visual Studio 2005 Team Testing System in my application. I got the link from :
http://www.windowsdevcenter.com/pub/a/windows/2006/01/03/unit-testing-in-visual-studio-2005-team-system.html?page=1[^]

The version info about VS2005 I am using is:
Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
Version 8.0.50727.42
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 2.0.50727
Installed Edition: Professional

1) Is Team Testing already integrated with the version I am using?
2) If not how can I upgrade same.

Any help/links will be appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
Arti

This is part of the Visual Studio Team System suite of application. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/teamsystem/default.aspx[^] and not a part of Visual Studio Professional.

There are tools, such as NUnit http://www.nunit.org/[^] that can be used however with your version.

Mouse DragBox

Hi,

I need to create a mouse dragbox type of event, much like when you click and drag the mouse on the desktop, it creates the dotted line "box".

Does anyone know of any articles on how to do this?, i've thought of listening to the mouse click/move event and then drawing a rectangle from the posistions, but it would be much easier if there was a inbuilt event.

Regards,
Gareth.

mike montagne16-May-07 5:48

Sure. You can descend a class from Control, and add a textbox, button, and listview to it.

what is the sample code for that...?

mike montagne22-May-07 9:50

Evidently, Uwe believes your question pertains to adding the textbox and button to a subcomponent. My interpretation of your question is that you want to add a textbox and button to an exterior region. To do so, you would probably want to derive a root or base layer from Control or UserControl, and add your ListView, TextBox and Button to that.

c# and icons...

I would like to know if it is possible to have different icons for the same window in the title bar and in the taskbar..

I think that everything is possible but..
Anyway.. if someone have something to help me it would be appreciate..

Thanks

Luc

I could be wrong, but I don't think there's a practical way to do that. The Task Bar reads the icon from the executable -- you don't have an obvious opportunity to pass an alternate icon to system processes managing the Task Bar.

losted16-May-07 6:04

16-May-07 6:04

That's also my conclusion, but there's absolutely no way to do that?

No hack or tricky tricks?

mike montagne16-May-07 6:34

I know I've seen an example of how to draw a rectangle on the desktop in response to mouse drag events, but I can't recall where. It's been a while. You should be able to dig up an example.

The NotifyIcon has its own icon property. so you can set that.

Then you set the project and form icon to be something different.

Hope that helps.

kubben, there's nothing about the tray in what i want to do.
I just want to have different icon in my titlebar and taskbar.

what would this be good for?

losted16-May-07 8:43

16-May-07 8:43

I want to do that because my application is for win2000 only and my icon is white with transparent background. On the blue title bar the look is good (white over blue) but in the task bar its white over gray so we almost do not see it.
