• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Present() hangs for 10 seconds when mixing DirectX full screen and GDI

  I'm using C# and MDX. When I setup DirectX to go full screen, and then also use GDI to draw on another form on a different display, the Present() function can hang for 10 seconds. When it hangs, even the mouse pointer stops moving. When it comes back to life and I click on a form, it looks like GDI is resetting or something (the monitor goes black for a few seconds, then redraws), and sometimes there is junk on one of the displays. Sometimes it hangs forever, and I have to do a hardware reset to fix the problem. Changing PresentInterval to Immediate fixes the problem, but I'd prefer to have DirectX do the vertical sync for me. Any ideas Thanks, Jeremy I tried to reproduce this on another ...Show All

• Windows Forms Simple Form customisations

  Hi, I'm at the moment learning C# through Visual C# Express edition and have a few questions. My first is that in my custom web browser I am designing how do I alter it, so that after I type my URL in my text box, it makes my browser go to that site as well as being able to press a GO button form. Also how I make it so that when I press Maximize the parts of my form scale to my Maximized window. To me these will seem like silly questions to most of the experienced and knowledgeable programmers on here, but I am only 15 so please be kind! Thanks for the Help. Hi Create KeyDown event to the textbox and test if e.KeyCode == Keys.Enter then do same as you do at GO buttons press. If you want resize/move you components at the s ...Show All

• Visual C# Any good examples of how to use Applications settings

  Hi, I'm trying to use Application settings to persist the size of a window between sessions in c# Express. I've tried following the help files but it's all way too complex - I can work up to comlpex once I've got something working!  Does anyone know if there is a simple 'how to' anywhere, covering the basics What code do I need to add (to save ) What are the steps in the designer Many Thanks for any help Baffled Thanks for your help. On first reading it seems not to use the c# Express IDE application settings.  I know I can save values in a file and then read them back but I'd kind of hoped that the Application Settings in the IDE made things a bit less manual.

• SQL Server What are the relationships among the attributes within each cluster?

  Hi, all here, Thank you very much for your kind attention. I am having a question about Microsoft Clustering algorithm here. When we train the clustering model, we gain the clusters based on the model training. So what are the relationship among all attributes within each cluster When we sumarize the characteristics for each cluster, for example, based on criteria attribute A=X , we got the darker cluster for this criteria, along with this characteristics (A=X), we also got other characteristics, so what is the exact relationship among all these chracteristics It seemed they dont have any relationship to each other at all ( A=X dose not mean most likely B=Y if A=X , what it means only is within this cluster, most likely A=X and B=Y e ...Show All
