• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. SpriteBatch Source Rectangle

  I am drawing my sprites using a single texture and cutting them with the sourcerect feature, however, this causes my screen to flicker if I move the sprites using a float number with decimals, because they have to be converted to (int).

• Smart Device Development C# Device Applications Serial Port

  HelloI am trying to link a Windows application with a device application. Windows divice applications have a serial control so I though I could link them together using a virtual comm port.

• Smart Device Development Socket.BeginRecieve Mystery

  Hi, I am working with the sample code for Asynchronous Clients: Asynchronous Server Socket Example My Server platform is WinCE 5.0 CF2. When I connect the first time and pass a string.

• Windows Forms How can i get the current string width in textbox of C#

  Hi, i am wondering if i can get the current font size (including height and width) or string width in textbox of C# Or how to make the form or the textbox resizable based on the input text string length I checked the functions, which only include this.Font.GetHeight.
