• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Drawing just one pixel

  Hello all, I'm just getting into XNA, and all I want to do at this point is create an object that will basically just represent one pixel on the screen, with a variable for RGB color that can be modified easily. Then I can simply draw the pixel to the screen, and change it's color if need be. Any help is appreciated. XNA is a wrapper for Direct3D, so drawing a single pixel isn't actually the easiest thing in the world. Direct3D (like all hardware accelerated graphics systems) ultimately works in terms of triangles, so eventually, anything you want to draw has to be turned into one or more triangles. To draw a single pixel, you'll have to set up a tiny triangle in just the right place, which is possibl ...Show All

• Visual Studio Remove empty table cell at end of report

  At the very end of my report table is an empty cell with a width of 100%. It is causing about three inches of white space to appear to the right of the report, which causes an unwanted horizonal scrollbar to appear.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Problem loading image into ImageObject (WPF)....

  I have an ObeservableCollection of images... Then I add an image to that collection. The image is fetched from the network (internet) and this is sometimes slow... What I tried to achieve is to put an animated gif (stored on a local disk) as the image, and only the image is fetched from the internet to "sustitute" the animated gif with the real image.... My question is, once I add an object to the observable collection, how can I notify the WPF that the object was changed and that it needs to refresh that image object. Also how can I determine that the image was fetched, basically, that it is loaded into memory Thanks, M.V. The bitmapImage has the downloadcompleted event... But as image ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Filling Related dataset...

  Hello all, I have a dataset that contains e.g. two tables, and they are related. (Parent -> Child) How can I fill the child table only with the rows that are related to a parent row in the parent table Lets say in my database I have a couple of parent rows, which has two child rows each in the child table. Now, I fill my parent table with one row from the parent table, and I only want the two child rows from the child table to be fill into the child table in the dataset. I could have gotten the same result by creating a dataset containing the result set from a simple SQL statment. (select bla, bla, bla, from parent, child where parent.id = child.parentid) My goal here is to use the result in a report. So the question is, is the first e ...Show All

• SQL Server Access project connecting to SQL 2005

  Most of our users are using MS Access project to work with our data in SQL Server 2005. The problem we have is that in order for them to access the tables they need to be given db_datareader and db_datawriter permission on the database. Our goal is not to give access to the tables themselves but to views. Therefore, we've created several views and placed them into a particular schema. Now we want to give access to that schema, but when we assign select, delete, insert, and update to that schema user in ms access project aren't able to view these tables. When we give them db_datareader permission they are able to see the views but in parentencies does not show the correct schema; therefore, when you try to open that view it errors out sayin ...Show All

• .NET Development Fixed-size Queue?

  Hello! I'm in need of a fixed size Queue. According to the msdn documentation, a Queue object will grow as more items are inserted into it. I need a Queue that operates more like (in real-world terms) a length of pipe. You can insert a fixed number of tennis balls into a pipe, and then they start coming out the other side. All the while, the pipe only holds a certain number of tennis balls. A situation like this would work... Queue<TennisBall> q = new Queue<TennisBall>(MAX_TENNIS_BALLS); //.... if (q.Count == MAX_TENNIS_BALLS) { q.Dequeue(); q.Enqueue(tennisBall); } else { q.Enqueue(tennisBall); } ...if I could be guaranteed that the Queue object would stay the same s ...Show All

• .NET Development Change the background color on individual cells within the .Net 2003 datagrid

  Peoples... In VB6 you can specify a range of cells (or an idividual cell) in a datagrid and set it's background color to display whatever color you want. I haven't seen a way to do this in the .Net 2003 Datagrid. You can change it when you click on it or you can change a row or column but what I want to be able to do is change the color at the cell level. In other words, I may only want to "highlight" a few cells within a column. Does anyone know how to do this or is this a known limitation Also, has this been addressed in .Net 2005 And, lastly, if the answers are NO and NO to the last 2 question above, I can't help but wonder who worked on the .Net datagrid for MS It seems to me that this is a step backward considering that ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Queries for an Access database

  Hi, I'm working on an electronic register which people use to sign in and out of a building. It uses 3 tables, one to store personal information (Name & Visitor Number), one to store what time they come in, and one to store what time they leave. Visitor Number is the primary key in the Visitor_Info table, and is used as a foreign key in the other 2 tables. I've been asked to put in an 'emergency print' function where, when you click the print button, it compares the data in the time in database and the time out database and prints a list of people still in the building. So, what I'm trying to do is create a SQL query that will give me this information. Having never used SQL before, it's a little tricky. I've spent the last few days loo ...Show All
