I used the idea of Michael Hammond, Dot Matrix clock, and made a control out of it. Right now, you have the choice of 4 colors, of course you can add some yourself. You can change the font. The width of the control is ajustable but the height will automatically adjust to the height of one line of text depending on the font you choose. Tell me what you think.
My DM wanted a small program to simulate a battle field and display it on his big screen TV when we play. The form is about 1024x768 because his video card is able to display at that resolution on a TV. Players are represented by circles and monsters by triangles. Each players and monsters have a number to make it easy to track them. You can drag the characters where you want. Right-clicking a character toggles between healthy, wounded and dead. Left-clicking and draging on the grid allows you to draw (wall, obstacles, etc). Right-clicking on the grid is the eraser tool. I only implemented medium and large characters because other sizes are rare. -- Updated 2004-11-16, added an icon for the eraser. -- Updated 2004-11-18, added different colors to be selected for line drawing. Comments and votes are welcome :)
Update 2003-08-15: Removed FileSystemObject, now I only use API which is a lot faster. ---- Emulate Windows Explorer. Shows how to manipulate a treeview to build a directory tree, listview for files, API for file manipulation and recycle bin. I'm not responsible for what you do with it :)
This little example will click on any button just by saying the caption in a microphone. You will need Microsoft's Speech recognition engine. To fully understand how to make it work, I suggest you first read MTGiga's tutorial called 'Talk to your computer'. You can find it here. http://www.planetsourcecode.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=43096&lngWId=1 Don't forget to train the engine if you want it to better recognize how you speak. Of course this is just an example, it doesn't have code to put it in the tray. Please leave comments and vote!
Update to my previous submission. I added radio button, checkbox and menus. I also reorganised the APIControls module so you can use it in any project. I hope you find it interesting. -- Updated to correct the small bug Vlad reported :)
