Results for "top"

Finally the help file is included in the .ZIP file! Thanx to Amanda Miller, the WebMaster. Being inspired by Clint's vcTrayAlert Control at http://vcreations.net/product.asp?pid=34, I decided to write my very own control. This one has much more cababilities, and some advanced features for Win2000 or later: like the Transparency property and the fading animation. It is still very easy to use: check out the DEMO. It is also very versatile!: check out the Screen Shot ;). I have used a great gradient-drawing class that I found on PSC by Kath-Rock. I have invested alot of my spare time in this large project. It is made free but make sure to check out the license agreement and copyright info. All I'd like to ask you is your encouragement - IF you DO like my control or NOT then please VOTE. I'll be waiting for your feedbacks and emails. And, If you ever find a bug, email me about it. KEYWORDS: MSN Style Tray Alert Control, ActiveX Control, User Control, Play WAVE WAV File Resource, Always On Top, Top Most, Transparency, Transparent, Fade, Mask, Borders, Gradient, Error Handling.

I'm not sure sure if it's just my computer but, for some reason, my VB programs never stay on top of other windows all the time when I use the SetWindowPos API. This program still uses the SetWindowPos API but I added some stuff to make it work properly.

Add special effect to your form when it is showing and hiding! 6 types of effects can be applied. They are roll left to right, roll right to left, roll top to bottom, roll bottom to top, expand window outward and fade window. This program shows how to add these fancy effects. Make sure you have Windows 2000 and later or Windows 98 and later running before running this program. The program is well commented and a tutorial is included. Your comments and votes is the way you repay me for my work.

Dock the most right top menu to the right of a form. Check the screenshot.

This is an explorer property page shell extension which will allow you to edit mp3 tag properties. By adding an empty dialog and plopping a vb form on top you can handle all the programming in vb instead of c++. There is a .dll required that is available at http://www.programmersheaven.com/search/download.asp?FileID=38704. The propext.dll is essential since you cannot call a function pointer in vb.(that I'm aware of)It allows the adding of the empty dialog, on top of which the vb form is placed. This can of course be applied to any file extension. You can make your own custom property page. I have found many instances where an external .dll written in c++ can extend vb into an extremely robust language. Too bad they aren't allowed to be submitted for security reasons.

This version of Google Power has automatic top open browser detection for searching individual websites as well as the form staying on top when open.

This will put your forms on top. Works good. It uses API calls to do this. Hope it helps you. Also Please visut my site, i got some video tutorials there about visual basic. http://www14.brinkster.com/computerteck/?p254

Whant to make your form on-top of of all other applications, well this is the code for you!

It has been proven that when you see a happy face, it also makes you smile or be happy as well, which is part of positive thinking and causes you to live longer. This program displays a yellow happy face on the screen, always on top of other windows. It moves to a different random location when you move the mouse over it. This code demonstrates how to make a window on top, move the form on the screen, and how to make certain parts of the form transparent. Good luck and be happy!

This code keeps a form on top of all other windows.

This program does about anything you can think of: Shut down, restart, log off, connect/disconnect to internet, enumerate windows, create Veda designs, stay on top, montor cpu, tells length in windows, date, time, what mouse is over, disble/enable: screen saver ALT-CTL-DEL Taskbar Desktop Icons, empty recycling bin, auto mouse move, minimizes to windows tray, minimize all, change screen resolution, open CDRom drive, open every thing in control panel, copy files, rename files, run files, force on top, finds **** in textboxes, changes keys into ASCII #s, opens "find files", open winfiles, open explore, AND MUCH MUCH MORE!!! This is by far my best program uses TONS of API calls!!! Have Fun!

Here is the concept behind this representation of the Enigma Machine: The program uses virtual "wheels" that contain all of the printable characters on the keyboard. Think of the first wheel as the keyboard you are typing on. All of the wheels contain the same characters, but in a random, non-repeating order. Each time a character is pressed, the location of that character on the one wheel is used to as the index to lift the character off of the next wheel. Then the new character is searched for in the next wheel, and the pattern repeats itself across each wheel. The character lifted off of the final wheel is the output. This step is repeated for each character in the message. Decryption simply sends the message backwards through a similar, but reversed process. What really makes this encryption effective is that like the real life machine, the wheels rotate either to the left or right after each character. So the relationship between each character shifts constantly. As a result, even repeating characters such as "aaaaaaaaaaa" are represented with garbage such as "zkhfXSURMBe". Another great part about an encryption scheme like this is it's flexibility. You can add more wheels, more characters per wheel, change the order of the wheels, the directions the wheels spin, and change the starting position of each wheel. So, unless someone can figure out: 1) How many wheels are being used... 2) How many characters are on each wheel... 3) The order of the wheels... 4) The direction they spin... 5) The initial position of each wheel... 6) The order of the characters on each wheel... It would be virtually impossible to look at the encrypted characters and determine their relationship to one another. There are so many possibilities and combinations of the above criteria, it would have to be solved through brute force. I am no mathematician, so if anyone can tell me the possible combinations, I would appreciate it. When the Germans used this machine, it baffled the Allies, who frantically tried to break it with no success. It wasn't until a German U-Boat was forced to surface in a naval battle and was captured that the Allies got a huge break. An Enigma machine was captured along with a code book that showed the information needed to decrypt the messages. The U-Boat was scuttled and the crew was kept in a top secret location. The U-Boat was simply considered lost during battle and Germans continued the war not knowing the truth. When the war in the Atlantic turned for the worse, the Germans, who believed their code to be unbreakable, believed that there were spies in their top level officials. They never considered that the code was being decrypted through a captured machine, so as a result, they set up elaborate networks to try and find these "spies". Paranoia being what it was, many loyal German officers were tortured and murdered for treason, even though they had committed no such offense. This code is by no means complete. I will try and enhance it's speed and toughen it's encryption even further. I'll also try and build a better sample app with more features. If you find a problem or have a suggestion, I would love to hear it.

This project shows how you can add an Intellisense List (like the one in VB where you type an object name, then a "DOT", and then a list pops up -- that's the Intellisense List). Designed to allow you to enter in YOUR SCRIPTING LANGUAGE COMMANDS AND OBJECTS quickly and easily (using an external text file). All efforts were made to make this act exactly as the one in VB does. Press TAB or ENTER to select an item in the list. Clicking TAB immediately automatically selects the first item in the list. You can begin typing the property name and the "closest match" will be highlighted as you type. Backspacing on your typed entry also does the same. Multiple "DOTS" (eg: me.text1.font.) works. Insertion of "DOT" characters in the middle of a string works. Location of intellisense box goes to where it can fit in view (bottom right, bottom left, top right, top left) depending on where your current cursor location is. This project Took me some time troubleshooting, so I hope some of you out there can use this. UPDATED ON AUGUST 9th! Fixed a few unhandled errors, added more comments to help you see what is happening, Wrapped Intellisense core functions into subs for easier include in your projcets, and added the ability for different styles of the Intellisense box (Office XP stlye, VB6 style, and a hybrid style) as many of you have requested.

It automatically makes your form on top until they close or end the program and it is all API free!

This is an update to code I posted Yesterday. The sole purpose of this code is to allow you to use a free ISP, without the wasted desktop\browser space of ad banners. In the previous app the banner was hidden using Win API Functions. This worked except the banner ad people have hard coded there Banner Apps to stay on top at all times. Hence, the code to hide the banner had to be executed over and over again causing the "Hider" App to canstantly execute code. THis Method Minimizes the banner... THe banner will still be on top, but it will only be a title bar that you can position in the "White SPace" of the Browser toolbar. No adds will be displayed. YOu will not even know it's there.

Sitting at home on my computer with my back to the TV ... I thought it would be nice to be able to sort of keep up on what's happening on TV, so I whipped up this little monitor mirror. It stays on top and allows me to see the reflection of the TV. It's just a black form. Good lesson on keeping a form on top and retaining settings using the registry.
