• Jehan Badshah How to change Text property of label control from a thread

  Hi Can anybody help me to change the text property of label control from a thread.(when a thread is running I need to change the Text property of Label) Thanks vizai Hi Karthik, this property has been available in all versions of the framework, see: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.control.invokerequired(VS.80).aspx It allows you to check if you are on the correct thread before updating a control.

• hunb Deploy chm file with click-once

  I'd like to include a chm file with the application that I am deploying, but no matter what subdirectory of the project I put it in I can't seem to get the file to be included in the deployment. The help file does work correctly from my application on the development machine where I have it located in the project bin directory. Right now, my deployment is just to a directory from which I burn a CD.

• farming Deploying detected assembly in multiple folders

  Hello, I'm creating a deployment project (msi) to install 2 Windows Services and a Windows Forms App to configure and control those services. As they are part of the same system, I'd like to keep then in the same installation project. On the "application folder" I created 3 additional folder, to store the primary output, content files and localized resources for each project separatedly...So each service and UI will have its own folder. My problem is with the detected dependencies. There are detected dependencies that should be in more than one folder. But it seems that each detected dependency has only one destination folder. I was thinking about using the global assembly cache to solve this issue, but I'm not really ...Show All

• Nani How can I apply AutoScaleMode to other controls than Containers ?

  Hello, I want to use my software in high resolutions/DPIs, I had no problem with displaying a ToolStripContainer, the fonts are properly scaled. However the scaling do not pass to childrens, I have Labels and ListBoxes on the content panel, but whatever I try to do so they get re-scaled, does not work. The SizeF structure is already at 1:1 which means I think, the software on run-time already resized and set it back to 1, to avoid infinite resizes (It's said on the help topic below). I have tried what is described on this topic, but I always get the answer I said above. The PerformAutoScale method doesn't work too.

• Big5824 Best MSI information source / Best MSI tool

  Over the past two years we have gone the rounds trying to figure out the best way to create setup.exe programs for our VB.NET applications. We've dabbled with Wise, InstallShield, and Visual Studio's Setup Project. We're currently dealing with VS Setup Projects, but we're not entirely convinced we're using it to it's fullest potential or that we're using the best tool for the job. Our goal is to deploy a large number of client applications that communicate with a server within an Intranet. We would prefer these installations to be done silently. I guess I really have two questions: 1. Based on our present experience, we're pretty frustrated with the complexity of Wise and InstallShield, and we're also feeling that VS Setup Projec ...Show All
