• Windows Live Developer Forums Adding html control with onclick event

  I have not been able to wire up an event to html controls that i have added to the map. i've simplified what I was attemptring to do to just adding a button and clicking on it. This will not launch the alert box when i click on the button added to the map. Are events not handled for added controls var vm = document.createElement( "INPUT" ); vm.onclick= alert('please work')" ; vm.id= "fre" ; vm.value= "Click" ; vm.type= "button" ; vm.name= "fre" ; vm.style.top = "400px" ; vm.style.left = "400px" ; map.AddControl(vm); It may been an issue with what types of controls the API allows to be added.

• Visual C# How to edit ico files in the solution?

  When I double click on my application icon in solution explorer, it comes up in MS Paint, not in VS.net's icon editor. I checked file associations, and ICO files were not associated with anything, so I set them to VS.net -- made no difference. Tried Open WIth.. "Resource Editor" (Is that what the icon editor is called ) get modal message box "This file cannot be opened with the selected editor". Now if I reset the application to not have an icon, and attempt to edit the ico file, it opens with paint. How do I get it back in the icon editor again Thanks in advance this seems like it would be so easy... Hmmm, Are you sure its an Icon file not only with .ico but also internally By the way Visual Stud ...Show All

• Windows Forms MessageBox from worker (Non-GUI) thread

  In a C# (.Net 1.x) application, when a user clicks on the "Run Update" button, I launch a function DoRun() in a worker thread Question 1: I need to bring up a confirm dialog while the function is running based on some condition. That cannot be asynchronous. Is it generally Ok to bring up the Dialog (MesageBox.Show.....) from the worker thread If not, what is the way to do this synchronously on the GUI thread Question 2: I need the command button (btn_run) disabled at some point in the function, and then enabled again at the end of the function. While I know how to define delegates and do this with BeginInvoke, is there a simpler way, since I have a lot of buttons and do want to define a separate function to delegate e ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Custom Actions in a Team Build

  I am trying to create a custom build action for a team build for one of our solutions. Our project is split into 2 main sections, an Architecture solution, and a GUI. The GUI uses Dll references to a common directory on a server where the latest release of the Architecture project resides. These references are resolved from an M: drive which for local development is either a mapped drive from the server or a subst to a local folder. When trying to create a Team Build for the GUI solution, initially it fails as it cannot resolve references, though the hint path is searching for M: drive. What I would like to do is perform a 'subst m: $(SolutionRoot)\Architecture\Binaries' before the compile starts and then 'subst m: /d' after the compile ha ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Bug in D3DX Anim Controller

  Seems there is a bug somewhere in the Anim Controller. This used to work fine in an older version of DX9, but after I upgraded to the August, and then October SDKs, this problem started to occur. If you output a skinned animation using the Maya .X file plugin, and then load that .X file into the Mesh Viewer, you will see the animation wildly jumping around at various points. It appears to be a problem with SRT animation, because I wrote a util to convert the SRT data in the file into Matrices - and after doing that it plays fine both in the Mesh Viewer and in my own app. Also note that TINY.X is all Matrix animations, and again plays fine, which is what first gave me the idea to try this. ...Show All
