• blixy scrolling panel as text expands

  Hi all, I'm using a panel to display text using the e.Graphics.DrawString function... Unfortunately, the amount of text that I will be displaying is bound to vary, and as such, I need my panel to scroll as needed. Of course I have the autoscroll property set to true, but when more text is added to the panel that can be displayed (ie, i need to use a vertical scrollbar), a scrollbar doesn't appear, and I can't view all of the text. Does anyone know how I can make the panel scroll appropriately as needed Thanks so much Any input is greatly appreciated! Thanks again -Robert Seems to work fine for me. However, it is probably better to draw to a contained control, rather than the scrolling panel itself - I've found that you have more ...Show All

• Michael Bolland Change a window position

  I am a beginner and I was wondering how I could make a form/window look like its sliding accross the screen.

  My problem is as follows: I am using a 3rd party IDE. Eadh time it connects to the server (e.g., to open files from source control, refresh SCC status, etc.), I get prompted by TFS to provide Team Foundation Login Information to communicate to the server over HTTP or HTTPS. I have read the thread https://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=1086788&SiteID=1 , however it only applies to VS 2K3 (the IDE I am using does not have the Login ID option).

After choosing the fedration server user is presented with a login page which is hosted on the ADFS box, user would put their CORRECT user name and password ...Show All
