• .NET Development New Window

  I have a button on a call back page and when the button is pressed the new window isn't staying forward, it's hidding behind the window with the call back. I've tried to self.blur() the call back page and popup.focus() the new window but they don't seem to work. Anything would be appreciated. There is no pages and buttons in XML. It's not clear what is the context of your question. Please, consider using appropriate forum. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Ann: A "Proper" Text Rendering Component

  Hi! I'm just in the process of writing a proper text rendering component for XNA. It fully integrates into the content pipeline and can import any TrueType font during compile time. Just like any other XNA framework content, an .xnb file is generated from the font which can at runtime be loaded by XNA's ContentManager, eg. BitmapFont myFont = this .content.load< BitmapFont >(   "Content/Fonts/Arial" ); // ... this . myFont.drawText(   new Vector2 (100.0f, 100.0f),   "Hello World" ,   Color .White ); The component is still in development and there will likely be some changes in its interface, but it's already fully usable. If you want to give it a go, you can find the component here: http://www.nuclex.org/fra ...Show All

• Windows Forms Load an image using windows form

  Hi, I'm trying to load an image from a file using a pictureBox and a button in the windows form. I want it to open a file dialog when the button is pressed and when the image is selected i want it to be displayed in the pictureBox.

• SharePoint Products and Technologies WSS 2.0 Multiple Keywords - no results

  Hi, I’m trying to search for two or more keywords using windows sharepoint services 2.0 which comes together with the team foundation server (tfs) and has a sql 2005 server as backend. As documented it should be possible to use more than one keyword in a search: “Use more search words. You can include up to 255 characters.”  Taken from WSS Help If I have “Expression_A” and “Expression_B” in a word document within a WSS document library I get the correct result if searching for “Expression_A” or “Expression_B” as one single keyword. As soon as I use the combination of both keywords as search expression I get no results. What is the reason for this behaviour What am I doing wrong Thanks, Tom ...Show All

  What is the best algorithm to alphabetically sort an array of about 12,000 Objects by one of their members I have implemented a Shell Sort, but it is just too slow.

• Visual C++ MFC Controls in Managed C++... Help!

  Hi, A while back I designed a couple of CEdit derived MFC controls in VC++ 6.0, but our company recently made the upgrade to Visual Studio 2005. I need to re-use these controls from C# and VB environments, but would like to use the existing code rather than re-write every control. These controls will be contained in a managed C++ DLL. I've been trying to create a System::Windows::Forms::Control object which wraps my CEdit control, and passes Windows messages through to the control by overriding the DefWinProc function, but for some reason the control is not painting/drawing. Any ideas Thanks, Riaan ok... got it figured out: overload the TextBox::OnHandleCreated function as follows: ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Setting an attached property by a Setter element?

  I have the fragment below as contents of a <Grid> element. The idea is that if the checkbox is checked the <TreeView> element should only span one instead of two columns. When I check the checkbox the background of the treeview turns red, but the treeview continues to span 2 instead of 1 column. It's a bit like the attached property Grid.ColumnSpan does not get assigned by the <Setter Property="Grid.ColumnSpan" Value="1"/> at all. What should I do in order to achieve what I want Best regards, Henrik Dahl < TreeView x:Name = " Blas " ItemsSource = " {Binding Path=BlasRoot.Children} " d:LayoutOverrides = " Width " Margin = " 0,0,0,8 " Gr ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Returning Files as a Stream

  I have a WCF contract that returns a stream. I am normally returning an XML file. This works fine, but whenever I return a 'null' or binary file, the WCF comm seems to get hosed. This is a self-hosted console app. Here is my app.config. <endpoint address="net.tcp://localhost:8002/ProLab/" binding="netTcpBinding" bindingConfiguration="" contract="NCRx.ProLab.Common.IProLabServer" /> The interface is set up as a duplex interface as follows.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Audio hoax

  I was just wondering whether the XNA framework somewhat more than using its internal icky audio engine based on prefabbed XACT packages, like writing PCM data directly to a buffer I'm not very far into game programming as of yet, but to me the use of XACT seems like a superfluous step in the work flow of a creating a game, or just an additional level to a game. Correct if I'm wrong, I've just read the documentation. First of all, wave banks, cues etc. can only be created within the XACT authoring tool, hence no possibility for integration other than using what's created in the tool. Second, apparently no reflection or discovery can be made on XACT packages in your client code to discover cues. Scenario: A level editor in which you ...Show All

• .NET Development Why FileSystemWatcher reports the wrong file name?

  We are using FileSystemWatcher in our website project to monitor the configuration files. However, after a file is modified, the reported FullPath in is not the actual file name. E.g, there is a configuration file N:\SourceCode\...\DataCommand.config while the reported file name is N:\SourceCode\...\ve-32E1.tmp or N:\SourceCode\...\ve-32E2.tmp or even sometimes N:\SourceCode\...\DataCommand.config~RF20a125a3.TMP but never the right one. This issue is very confusing and makes a major component in the system stop functioning. So I really hope someone can explain why this is happening and what the walkaround is. Thanks very much.
