• Leo Ng Freezing when a control data is set

  When I set data in a control (setting the text in a label or image in a pictureBox) the form freezes. I stepped throught the code, and the exact line where a controls data is being set, it enters but never returns. I am using CF 1.0. Has anyone seen anything like this If I break inside a method in the form and I have the controls data in my watch list this will also cause VS 2005. So frustrating... I actually ended up using delegates as function pointers. When I set the pointer when the form was instantiated and then called it from the method that was being called by the external thread it seemed to work :P Use Control.Invoke() for changing UI elements from your thread! It seems to be when a secondary thread is acc ...Show All

• ddoolit VS2005 and WinCE4.2...?

  Hello, I get a device with WinCE 4.2 installed and I want to adapt my program written for WinCE5.0 for this WinCE4.2 installed device. When I click Change Target Platform in the Project menu, I can not see Windows CE 4.2 in the combobox. How can I do this Thanks in advance. What about netcf 2 SP1 which says CE 4.2 support was added I installed it onto my dev machine and I still do not have CE 4.2 as a target platform. Thanks, Raymond Yes, NETCF V2 SP1 adds runtime support for CE 4.2. That does not change VS in any way as NETCF is not VS. With SP1 you can run NETCF V2 applications on CE 4.2 which you’ve developed in VS 2005 using CE 5 as target. VS 2005 has no support for CE 4.2. If you keep p ...Show All

• KippV Problem with polylines and pushpin draw in 3D mode.

  Dear Caleb and VE team, In VE I draw ( first ) several polylines and then ( second ) draw several pushpins. In 2D mode I have no problem, but on 3D mode, some polylines draw and disappear quickly.

Alex Dear Caleb, my source code is for WindowsForms and very long... My process is to pass an array of points to javascript and then draw the polylines. I'm doing several test for post you more information: The problem is only is 3D mode , the 2D mode works fine. It seems that the problem persist when only draw various polylines ( without pushpins ).

• TemporaryNick drag map when you click on a pushpin in Firefox

  In IE if you click on a pushpin and drag, you can move the map around like if you had clicked on the actual map. This function is lost in Firefox but John L Scott has managed to implement it in firefox. I guess it was with the attachEvent function or something, but I can't get it to work. Any ideas Yes, please share. It will certainly help many people with the same problem. John. Sorry to bring it up again...but is it really not possible I've been trying out several things but nothing. The closest I got to anything similar is by disabling the left click drag and just allowing dragging with the right button, but it's not very useable...but at least the pushpin won't be locked to the cursor when it's clicked and dragged.

• swalker Mega Cluster logic

  Dr Neil first mentioned this on the via virtual earth site recently and now I need to use them. Just though I would put my ideas out here and see what you all think and can add. To be clear this is a concept and I’m looking for ideas / help before I build it. Basically the issue is you have X number of points to put on the map where X is very large. 1. If you go and add them all it is going to slow down to a crawl. 2. If you have points at a close proximity at certain zoom levels they are going to sit on top of each other and be unhoverable. The solution is to have a mega cluster that provides information about the points it represents. Firstly we need to look at how we calculate what po ...Show All

• startlet Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2 - Emulator problem

  Hi! I've got a problem and wonder if anyone else has it (and has resolved it ) My problem is as follows .. I create a new device application and try to run in in emulator.. the emulator starts just fine, but it won't connect to it! At all! The error is "Connection failed. The system cannot find the path specified." Thanks in advance, Tadej Ok, this corrected the problem and I was able to connect and deploy an app to the Pocket PC Emulator. My network is not using DHCP, so I indeed had to establish an IP address manually. Now, how about for Smartphone 2003 I am assuming I have to do something similar under Settings - Data Connections, but I am kind of lost in there Can you point me to any resources Fi ...Show All
