  Hi, I am making an app that plots out arcs from another source. I have been given or have calculated the Begining angle, the End Angle, the traverse Angle, the Radius, the center point, the start point, the end point.

Some problems I have is the arcs can be any size bettween 0' and 360', Have any start and end angles, The traverse angle can be greater than 180'. Does anybody have a solution for this Thanks Matt The method wants the rectangle that bou ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Get window height, without the height of the activitybar.

  Is there any way to get the height of the visible area of a window If you just use this.Height you will get the visible height + the height of the bar at the top. You could just subtract ~25px but this height depends on what theme you use on windows so this is not a good option :/ Tried this: (this.Content as Panel).Height Didn't work :( Only returns the height of the first children of the window. Thanks anyway. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Import Database Schema status is completed but my Database Project is still empty (tables, stored procedures, ...)

  Dear All, I am using "Microsoft Visual Studio Team Edition for Database Professionals Version 2.0.50727.72". CTP. All my attempts of Importing a Database Schema return a status "complete" but unfortunately my Database Project is still empty . When i compare the schema of my Database Project to the one of my source database i get a confirmation that the Database Project is really empty. The comparison tool generates a script that i can use to create all the objects but unfortunately the "Write Updates" button is disabled . Thank you in advance for your kind support.

  Hi all. Been looking around with the aim of writing an app that can both preview and stream webcam video, but appear to have fallen at the first hurdle. All the information I can find seems to be older, using either native calls or DirectShow to perform this, but I've been told that the framework now supports using a WebCam. Anyone got any information on how to use a webcam preview, and maybe how to go about streaming it over a network Thanks!
