Results for "top"
Now you can draw text with each icon and set the the position (top, right, etc.) via gdiPosition variable and I fixed the App.Path thing, the memory leak was allready fixed last time ... Here is the transparent version of my DirectX Program Dock, but this time based on GDI+. Big thanks to Apeiron for his Per Pixel Transparency code which made this version possible. Again you need to create a folder called (“icons”) in App.Path and put some PNG-Files in it. For the screenshot I used a PNG set from http://www.rokey.net/ but you can add any 128x128 PNG files you want.
A transparent window which stays on the top of the desktop icons and allows you to click them. At the current stage you can only click/dblclick on the icons, but don't forget -- this is just the first version. In the next release you will be able to manipulate all windows in the sysem. Please vote for me if you like the code and its conception! :-))
Flash Desktop Mate can put a transparent flash animation that wanders around your desktop interacting with windows. It's a fun little program I made for my kids last Christmas, but you can pretty easily change to your own animations if you want. It shows window interaction, flash-vb communication, form drag, window on top etc. Must have windows 2000 or XP as it uses layered windows. '98 users can comment out two lines in form_load to try it without transparency, read the readme for more info. You also have to have a recent flash ocx 6 or 7 to run.
NEW VERSION 3 NOW AT http://www.pscode.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=59247&lngWId=1 Will leave this here as a safety for a couple of weeks. This is a VB6 ( SP5 or SP6 required for ListView to work properly , Thanks Ariel) Add-In which allows you to indent code, find and repair/improve code for greater efficiency and readability and includes a user friendly replacement for VB's Find And Replace Tool. ------v2.9.9 several small tweaks mostly rare conditions or recent stuffups (See history.txt for details). --------------------------------------------- Quick search for 'CODE FIXER HELP FILE' to get the help file (You will need it!) The Find Tool component is designed to be permanently docked with the VB IDE(See Launch on Startup button on Settings screen). While this takes screen real estate, unlike VB's own find tool, it doesn't hide the code. I find it easiest to use if docked at top of the IDE under the VB toolbars. --------------------------------------------- WARNING All care; No responsibility. Some of the fixes the Add-In performs are capable of damaging code. Please use on copies of your code or use the built-in backup systems. --------------------------------------------- See readmeCodeFixer.txt in zip for installation instructions. -------------------------------------------- All bug reports gratefully recieved. If you have sent me one previously please check if I have patched it and let me know if not. -------------------------------------------- Thanks to Ulli for original inspiration and to the many who have assisted me with bug reports (you should find your name somewhere in the code, the thanks.rtf has been removed to keep the zip size down). --------------------- NEW NEW NEW NEW New item on CF menu 'Fix & Format (Ctrl Def Prop)': Because of the way it works the Default Property fix can be very slow, is unlikely to be needed more than once per project but it requires data gathered during the normal fix cycle. I know its an ugly menu item but until I think of a different, way to present this will do.
I am currently working on a major update and improvement, it will almost the same, as it is but with many enhancements. This is the second update for Floating/Docking Menu. completly done with vb. code, no secret code (designer has complete control over what it does) in a dll some done with standard drawing methods and some with API's. simply add menu items the same way that items would be added to a treeview or listview control. Almost an endless number of skining color schemes/skins (white does not work so good, probably some others too), draggable popup menus, Icons, Menu extender (used to save screen space), sizable, a control container (users can draw controls and have them float with the menu or dock them on the main form), docks to the top of the screen and auto hides when mouse is moved off. There is more commenting and some protection against fatal errors. but still there are some issues with the control container option that causes unexpected proplems on occasion. Hotkeys and some keyboard navigation of the menu.
I have always wanted to do this. I wanted a way to format the code ticker myself in VB so I can do whatever with it. So this doesn't use the IE control it downloads the ASP page from the internet saves it to the HD and then parses it for code samples. I haven't seen anything on here that does the ticker like this hense the "Advanced" title. If I get good feedback I will most likely add features like: Alerts (This would make it possible to be notified with certain authors post code or even to notify when new code is posted) this can be done by a form that shows up and goes away after a bit. I think it is endless. I did notice that with the ASP page it is executed at the server so I get the HTML back and I am guessing that the ticker SQL code just grabs the top 9 code submissions. Of course I don't have the ability to query the DB so this is the best I could think of. Well please remember to vote and I hope you friendly PCS'ers think this is a good idea. Please comment. Have a great day.
If you want your program to become very popular you must use all what is in the article. this Article contans Contents To read the content of the a list box to add a row in the ListView to remove an item from the listView to remove a selected item from the listview if there is more than a colomn on the listview and you want to add to To put more than one line in the MsgBox To create a directory to view a submenu on the form when you right click it to read a specific letter in a word in the text box to know the windows version to go to a new line use to make an object on the top of the taskbar To add a text to the listbox to open a message box MsgBox to declare an input dilog box To show the current date and time to show the date only to show the time only to take the value of a string to declare a random number to print to the defaut printer to connect the File viewer with the Directory Viewer to run a file to save to the registry to get from the registry to click a button by pressing enter to insert a picture in the button if you where wrighting a code and it was too long and you want to to make a word in the menu checked if you want to type date or time or both to make a declared variable limited The means How to use the case to make a form in the center if the screen to make a form full screen to know how many forms in the project to open files to use the winsock

If you havent heard about it..the api assistant is your api best friend. The api assistant is a thin, unobtrussive strip that sits at the very top or very bottom of your screen (a full 22 pixels high). It is a library of close to 200 of the most common api calls. Here is how it works. Your working on your project..you realize you need the api call "SetWindowPos" Just click on that item (everthing in the api assistant is alphabetized for fast access), click back on your project and the api call is instantly pasted into your project..followed immediately by a window that contains all of the constants or types that that api call would need. Its a huge time saver. Other time saving features of the api assistant also include the skeleton coding of all the most common vb calls. for instance..click the vb functions menu item "select case", an input box asks you how many cases you want..you enter 4...click in your project and instantly a 4 case select case skeleton structure is typed into your project where you clicked. the VB API assistant also has a small, but, evergrowing menu list of functions to also assist you. And just in case this program doesnt give you a specific api solution for you, there is a menu of other api resources for you as well. sorry for the large screenshot movie (2mb) but i felt it was necessarry to communicate what the program does..you know..a picture and a thousand words
************************************************* *** updated to correct day 1 positioning *** ************************************************* *** Updated to use dateserial as per comments *** ************************************************* * I will convert this to a wallpaper stamper * * real soon * ************************************************* Basically draw a formatted calendar month to a picturebox. All in a self contained class. Fancy having a batch app that when you start up your pc, it takes your wallpaper and sticks a calendar in the top right of your wallpaper! This is the class to base that on! I will write the whole thing, but in the meantime a fully functional class!
This is a game I wrote awhile back called DragonQuest. You basically are trying to fight your way to the top and become strong enough to defeat the dragon. Along the way you will visit: your home, weapon/armor/item shop, the trainer to advance your training, the forest to fight monsters and gain experience/gold and to search for the ever ellusive dragon. It uses SQL and all VB coding with an Access database. I know the graphics are horrible so please don't flame me over them. I commented where I could but there is a lot of repetitive code. All battles are performed with a dice-rolling competition (learn how to do random dice rolls and show the correct dice). If the players roll is higher than or equal to the monsters, he/she wins the attack. I hope someone learns something from this. Please comment and vote. I am thinking about upgrading this with DirectX and sounds but I don't know. I guess I'll see what kind of response I get here. Thank You
This is a listbox class that adds several great features to the standard listbox. (1) function draw_header:=This function draws an attractive header at the top of your listbox so it looks more like a listview control. The string you provide should be the text you want for your header, seperated by pipe ""|"" characters. The [container] parameter is the object the listbox is drawn on..ie the form or frame or picturebox (2) sub additems_with_tabs:="This sub allows you to additems to the listbox in such a manner that string ""string|string2|string3"" takes the pipe character and converts it to tabs" (3) sub horiz_scrollbars:="Allows you to add horizontal scrollbars to the listbox. If [scroll_width] is not supplied then the items in the list are scanned and if horizontal scrollbars are required, then it is added, making the listbox wide enouph to view the widest list entry. If [scroll_width] is supplied then you are manually adding them, the width based upon the value you supply for [scroll_width]." (4) function search:="Allows you to search for an item in the listbox. This acts like the autocomplete feature of browsers in that the search is case insensitive, and a partial match returns the index of the first listitem matching so a search of ""VIS"", for example, will return the index of ""visual basic"" entry in the listbox." (5)initialize_listbox:= "This must be the first method called and it sets reference to the listbox you will be referring to in this class." (6) sub hot_tracking (this one is real cool) "Calling this sub and setting [benable] to True makes your listbox have a ""hot-tracking"" effect in that moving your mouse over the listbox causes the item under your mouse to be hilighted" (7) sub individual_item_tooltips:="The tooltip for the listbox displays the contents of the listitem the mouse is over. Useful if the contents of listitems width exceed the width of the listbox itself" (8) sub tabstops:="Set tabstop points for the listbox. Specify in pixels..a value for each succeeding column" (9) sub add_many_items:="Enables you to add multiple items with one call. Each item to add is seperated by a comma."
This is an analog clock. Its hands move like a battery-operated clock! You also have the option to show the second hand or not. You can minimize this application to the system tray as well! Other features include a swinging pendulum, hourly chime, and time synchronization with an atomic time server without using MSWINSCK.OCX (GUARANTEED ACCURACY)! Configurations include start-up on Windows start and setting the windows to be always on top. On load, the main form reshapes to the shape of the clock as you can see in the screenshot. It has ticks for easy time reading. If you like it, plz vote!!! :-P
Count down counter for any date & time which will stick on window desktop. Featured dual language setting, English & German for this version. Allow always on top and side bounding.
Tab Order ia a Visual Basic Add-In that allows you to reorder each Control(s) Tab Order or Tab Indexes to your specifications. Several methods allow you to do this quickly and efficiently. By order of the controls Left position on the form. By order of the controls Top position on the form. By order of selection of controls. By order of individual incrementing tab index or decrementing tab index. This is a true add-in meaning it is run in the IDE. To run and setup see the Help file.
Creates a gradient background (VERY FAST). and much cleaner than the screenshot (crappy jpgs). Can do up to 3 different directions! left to right, top to bottom, and diagonal. Please give me aosme feedback on this n vote plz :)
Whether your new to api programming and need that special tutorial "buddy" by your side or your an API pro and just are sick of the hassles of having to find, copy, and paste api declarations and their associated constants and types, then this program is for you. (also included with this download is my "RAM purge" program that allows you to instantly reclaim wasted ram) This program sits, as a tiny 20 pixel high menu strip on your desktop. You can place it at the very top of your screen or the very bottom, or anywhere in between..its never in the way because it is so small. This program, the VB API code assistant is basically a huge repository of the most commonly used and needed code, just a mouse click away. One click of a button and a procedure header is pasted in your project for you. Another click and the skeleton of an entire select case structure is pasted for you. Want to move a window without a titlebar but forget get how??..one mouse click away. The program also contains well over 100 of the most common api calls along with their constants and type. This program is similair to the well know API-guide..but it takes it to the next level. The screenshot shows all of the menus built into this tiny, thin interface.
This is a complete web browser with powerful features that give you full control over any webpage. It has the ability to protect your privacy, detect content, and extract any element from the page. It can filter websites based on the content that it finds using one of four powerful filter options. You can edit web pages in real-time and edit any active element on it; including replacing, deleting, and modifying attribute such as color. For example, clicking on a text box (form) on the page, in real-time, you can change its border style, colors, fonts, ect. It’s the features of a WYSIWYG web page editor, except that you are still on the page and can use the page. The built-in text editor used for viewing source code has tools like Find String Between and Does String Exist. You can control Popup Windows ( Popups ) different ways including ‘Ask Me’, ‘Block’, and ‘Allow’. New windows can open in my program instead of Internet Explorer. Detect active cookies and SSL Certificates. Control Download and JavaScript windows and block download requests. My browser includes an Alert Bar which covers top of screen to display important messages when needed. The browser is full featured and has a complete tool bar and panel. The panel can be shown or hidden to give the browser more space. Extract all links on a page into a list, and also show each part of the site in neat categories (treeview) including Links, Elements, Buttons (Inputs), and Images. Filter pages using different methods, and perform an action based on what is found on the site. For example, if anywhere on the site you find “at least 18” you can block the site. You can add HTML to each page you are viewing so that you can make a totally customized filter. You can have it redirect to another page based on what is found in the site. Give it a try, and please vote. The theme shown is for clarity and isn’t included. If you wish to help support my hard time put into this program, find out how you can show your thanks at the project’s official homepage http://www.klansoft.com/klanscape. I hope it helps you learn and be sure to provide me with comments on how I can make it better. Please vote if you like it!
