• Windows Forms Soft-edged brush

  Hi, Can we draw using a soft-edged brush just like what we have in Photoshop or GIMP or the like Coz, usually when we call a pen, it will draw an hard-edged stroke. Thanks in advance. Mmm... i see i haven't tried those. i did tried passing the HatchBrush with 75% style and using a fg color with transparent bg color, but it doesn't give that soft edges effect. Not really sure how to use the LinearGradientBrush to create such effect. But how about TextureBrush... can it accept a gif transparent file. (i'm thinking maybe create a small dot with tranparancy edges) thanks ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Daily wise resource allocation in MS Project

• SQL Server Has anyone seen a Licensing screen during the install process?

  Hi again. I have been deploying the first few test SQL 2005 machines recently, from what I was told is the full-feature edition DVD received from the https://licensing.microsoft.com  website. We have purchased a mixture of per-processor and per-user licenses to use for this software. However, I am never asked what licensing mode to use during the install. Can anyone confirm or deny that a setup screen appears asking what licensing version you want to use (per-user or per-processor) I cannot confirm what was downloaded from the licensing-website because I don't have access through the company. I have the same symptoms as seen on this postings: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=360181& ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Problems with ClearType text in a custom control

  I hope this is the right forum for this question. I first saw this problem on Vista, though I've since found that it happens on XP as well. The basics: I have a custom control in my app that displays some text on top of a bitmap. The bitmap may be created programmatically, or by loading a resource or file. All this is done in an off-screen memory DC, and then blitted back onto the screen to avoid flickering. The problem: When ClearType is enabled, the text becomes very ugly, almost as if every letter has a black outline around it. I assume this is supposed to be the sub-pixel antialiasing, which has somehow turned black when I blit from the memory DC to the screen. Question: how can I allow and use ClearType in my control and still have it ...Show All

• Windows Forms Problem with DataGridView autoscroll. Please help.

  Greetings, Could someone plese help me on this issue. I'm a junior developer and have been struggling on this for quite some time now. The problem I have is that I have a DataGridView. Inside the DataGridView I have a number of rows. The DataGridView is placed inside a Panel. The Panel's autoscroll preoperty is set to true. The DataGridView's autosize property is set to true. At the moment the DataGridView has enough rows to have the Parent Panel scroll up and down. But there's a problem. Each time I click on a cell to edit it the ScrollBar scrolls automatically. I know this has to do the the CurrentCell thing allowing for the autoscroll to take effect. But how can I prevent this Is there a way to do this Any help will be appreciated. Tha ...Show All

• Windows Forms TableLayoutPanel cell border drawing problem

  Hi- I want to use a tablelayoutpanel for formatting purposes. And I want to have it draw borders around the cells. However, the border drawing seems to understand column span, but not row span. So a multi-column field gets a great border. However, a multi-row field gets a border drawn right through the middle. Yuck. Is there a way to override the border drawing or would I have to draw everything myself (thus, obviously defeating the whole purpose of the control) Thanks. -Gary I'm surprised that you say that it understands column spans! what happens usualy is that does not understand neither of them! The TableLayoutPanel control's main job is to provide a pannel with a table layout engine. It does not see ...Show All

• SQL Server import multiple text files?

  Hello, I am kind of new to Sql Server 2005. I figured out how to use the import data wizard to import a delimited text file. But I need to find a way to import many delimited text files at once. does anybody know if this can be done in Sql Server 2005 and how thanks in advance, Hi, you should probably use integration services for that. SSIS has a special task for that which will loop though a directory and inmport all text files which fit into the filter specified before.
