• Software Development for Windows Vista Logotype certs are mandatory??

  Hi, I was able to run the fabrikam example with the www.fabrikam.com SSL certificate. Now I want to use my SSL certificate (CN = sts.mysite.com) and I did the following: 1) Replace the cert thumbprint in app.config 2) run httpcfg -set ssl -i ... 3) set the cert ACL by modifying the existent vb script The certificate CN, CRL are OK and I can access via HTTPS a web site using this cert. On the other hand when trying to use my managed cards, the Identity Selector says that the SSL certificate is rejected since "the remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure". The SSL certificate is not a logotype cert. Are logotypes mandatory for CardSpace applications Thanks, kind regards, Clau ...Show All

• Visual C# Process Management

  Can someone explain to me how to make a process automatically go Idle in code Or how to set a process' state to idle. Any help would be appreciated. Do you mean that you want AIM to report to other users that you are idle If so... such a task would be very problematic as IM programs like that are simply watching the time since the last time you used the mouse or keyboard... not unlike the delay before your screensaver is displayed, it is in no way a measure of the idle state of a specific application. Aside from digging into the (likely non-public) API for AIM and trying to forcibly trick it... you’d be far better off rolling your own client with something like Fluent.TOC . ...Show All

• Windows Forms ToolStripMenuItem

  I have a form to which I have added a MenuStrip. In the MenuStrip I have added a ToolStripMenuItem to which I have added several other ToolStripMenuItems. I wish to control the enabled property of these ToolStripMenuItems by binding the enabled property to an ApplicationSetting (User scope). If the ApplicationSetting to which the enabled propety is bound changes from true to false, I would expect to see these controls switch from enabled to disabled. This is not the case. I then added a Button control to the form, and binded it's enabled property to the same ApplicationSetting, and it works as I expect. The ToolStripMenuItem's enabled property does respond to the ApplicationSetting when the form is first initialized, but does not respo ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Multiple Tile Layers and zoom on double click issue

  Hi, I'm loading 3 tile layers and a VEcollection into my map at http://thecascadian.com/ for the murky waters blog entry. That all works fine, but when you select the S Whidbey Isle layer in the dropdown, and then double click on that tilelayer, it zooms to the highest detail view instead of just one step "in". I'm not capturing that event in any way in my scripts; it's doing it "out of box". In my introductory entry I have 2 layers and I don't seem to see that effect. Also I don't seem to see that effect in my other 2 layers in the murky water entry map. Any ideas, thoughts on this. I'm guessing I my need to "hijack" the double click and force an incremental zoom( ). Thanks for any input on this! Sor ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Overlay window over a seperate fullscreen game window

  Hi all, This is my first post. Is it feasible to do the following This will be an XNA/C# app. 1) Execute in the systray, scan in background for “special” key press to activate app. (Done) 2) When the "special" key is pressed, render (Bring into focus) a semi-transparent GUI (Mouse driven app), with no window decorations in front of whatever game is already executing..

• Windows Live Developer Forums Mouseover of polygons, what's the latest?

  I've read a few threads and was just wondering if anyone has developed a nice way to add mouseover to polygons and or polylines Thanks! We had big big thread some time last year with various ideas. In the end we identified an issue that had to be fixed in VE i believe. For my client at the time I had a simple div label next to each polygon and could easily have a little action menu appear. I'm still very keen to get this sorted so we can do exactly what happens on maps.live.com in terms of editing. (I have asked the VE team on serveral threads to lend us a hand with this, but never got a responce) If anyone has a good working solution please let me know too!
