• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Animation Oddity...

  I have an Image object using a somewhat complex DrawingImage as its source. I am attempting to animate a particular GradientStop Color buried deep in the bowels of the DrawingImage. The code I am using to do the animation is: < Image.Triggers > < EventTrigger RoutedEvent = " FrameworkElement.Loaded " > < BeginStoryboard > < Storyboard > < ColorAnimation Storyboard.TargetName = " Logo " Storyboard.TargetProperty = " (Image.Source).(DrawingImage.Drawing).(DrawingGroup.Children)[1].(GeometryDrawing.Brush).(RadialGradientBrush.GradientStops)[1].Color " To = " #FFEF1F1F " From = " #FFCD0E0E " Duration = " 0:0:1 " AutoReverse = & ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Word 2003 Form Protection

  Hello, This might not be the right place to post this but any help you could offer or directions to more suitable forum would be much appreciated! I'm using Word Automation via C# to Parse in data from documents based on a Word 2003 template. The system looks at fields stored in the first section of the document which are filled in by the user. The form is a profile for the document and all additional sections (of which there can be any number) contain the document proper. My idea was to use "Form Based" protection on the first section of the document, whilst leaving the rest of it protection fee. This appeared to work well, and was producing the functionality I was after, but a problem has developed. It seems when yo ...Show All

• Windows Forms How to do a new line return on a rich text field

  I am having a stupid issue with a Rich Text Field and needing to drop a new line programmatically. In writing to the Console, it is easy, just use "\n" to cause the string to the next line; well I am just wondering how I would do the same thing for a rich text box Say for example, I want to print 10 sentences out in a Rich Text Box. After each sentence I want to go to the next line so the sentence does not overwrite the previous; what can I do to achieve this for ( int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { RichTextBox.Text = "The brown fox ran fast"; //How can I get this to drop to the next line each time it is printed } Thanks, Flea for ( int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { RichTextB ...Show All

  Hi, Thanks for reading and helpme out! I have create a simple client smart application that reads and shows the content of a text file. The application is correctly published and executed.

  Hi all, I have just written a map loader for my project but i have a little problem. At the moment i have no textures, but i want to know how can i do to draw differents textures on differents polygons Using the classical method with a basicEffect i can just applicated one texture in my draw() method.

• Visual Studio Team System Who wants a FxCop VS2005 add-in?

  Hello, I have written a simple add-in for VS 2005 to enhance integration with the IDE for those who are not using the Team System version of the product.

• Windows Forms Fly over issue of modal dialog forms over other applications

  I am doing a project in .NET. I have three forms say A,B,C. Form A is a mdicontainer. Form C is the modal dialog form and opens on pressing a button in form B.Now I run the application and open form C. With the application is running, I switch to some other applications like Iexplorer and then I switch back to the running application. My problem is when I switch back, the form C instead of opening inside Form A like a child form, appears as a single form over the Iexplorer itself. This fly over problem of forms is seen in all modules where child forms are declared as modal dialog forms. So anyone with any idea to solve the problem, please help. Thanks for the reply. But I am passing Form B as a paramete ...Show All

• Silverlight (formerly WPF/E) Drawing pixel based animations

  I have read the QuickStart but I haven`t seen any option to create an bitmap in memory and display it to perform old school pixel based effects. Is this possible I think that in WPF this is done via the BitmapSource class. Is there something similar for WPF/E Thanks! Joe, thanks for the reply. I hope you include this in a future release because IMHO doing pixel based effects is very useful in a lot of scenarios and especially for web based games. ...Show All
