Results for "top"

This is an Active X control you can add to your apps and have nice, smoothly scrolling text which makes them look pretty good :) The ocx can scroll right->left or bottom->top and background+text colors are customisable. Text scrolls, optionally pauses at the edge for specified ms and then continues to scroll off It uses bitblt to do the drawing so its flickerless and goes pretty smoothly. Also, this code simulates an asynchronus function as i couldnt see a way to make/call an asynchronus function in vb. Please vote for it!

I found many interesting code snippets on Planet Source Code. And I think it is time to make a contribution to this great community. Although there are already a few submissions available that simulate an water effect, they all seem not very realistic to me. This submission is an attempt to translate the original water effect directly to Visual Basic. Although this effect still needs some improvement on its own. It calculates the spreadout and the damping of an simulated wave and renders the corresponding reflexions on the water. And so it looks like there is a water surface on top of the picturebox. The sourcecode is still a work in progress and thus there are some limitations: a) the rendering speed needs to still improvement, b) the mousemove effect is still disabled due to the slow rendering and c) the effect is still not 100% correct. Vote if you think I would deserve it and please let me know your suggestions how to further improve this amazing effect...

This is a program that will let you show, hide, alter text, capture a picture, change the parent, kill, close, enable, disable, get info on, minimize, maximize, restore, capture a picture of, make them stay-on-top, send a message to, edit the window style, and flash the title bar on almost any target! The target can be selected by dragging the mouse from a button to the target or by entering a HWnd! It includes many more features and a complete help system. It also will list all the programs running on your system, will allow you to change their priorities, and will give you info on them too. The program can also perform a screen capture and can even highlight HWnds directly on the screen! It is excellent to learn by, and it's code is thoroughly commented and clean. Also, I would be grateful for any votes you feel fit to give me. I would appreciate them a lot, believe me!

This code shows how to calculate loan payments and build an amortization table. It allows the user to include an additional payment, and calculates how much money is saved with the extra payment added. It will show you the total amount you will pay in interest over the life of the loan. The amortization table can be saved, modified, and printed. You can select a range of cells and copy them to the clipboard to be pasted into a different document. You can find what your monthly payment will be entering the loan amount, interest rate, and length of the loan or you can entering the a monthly payment, interest rate, and length of the loan and the application will tell you the total amount you can borrow. If you don't want to borrow but want to know how much you need to save each month to reach a goal, then this application will help you do that as well. It will even factor in cost of living increases. This application does require one custom ocx (vb5 & vb6 versions), which is included and needs to be registered before it can be used. Other FREE ocx's by the same author may be found at http://www.devpower.com ---CODING EXAMPLES---: MSFlexGrid, multiple instances of a form, IsNumber (Allow Dec Point), API Open, Save and directory Dialogs, return only the file name from a string, return only the path from a string, Arrange MDI child forms, Select a printer, print right-justified, print center, print a double line, print a footer, check for end of page, random access files, simple graph using just code, center a form, fit a form to the screen, vertically fit a form to the screen (all task bar aware), center an object within an object, make a form always on top, copy to information to the clipboard - Just to mention a few.

This basicly tries to find the small icon for a window (the icon on the top left). Note: it returns the HANDLE to the icon, good for using in API calls. Also, I have looked around and there is NOTHING about this posted anywhere. That is why I'm posting it. (this is part of my current app...)

This is an AWSOME code!!!! It really rocks!! it's the official X-BOX JOKE!!!!! :) hope you like it too....it's made by my top secret friend ;) Andreas Thilander

This program uses API calls to find the text of almost any Window, including ones blocked with password characters. Just hover the mouse cursor over the window. Also shows Window handle. Makes use of SetWindowPos for "Always On Top" API call. Note: This Visual Basic version makes use of the GetWindowText call, which does not always return Window text, while the SendMessage call with WM_GETTEXT seems to work more often. Contact me to obtain the VC++ version which uses SendMessage instead.

The purpose of this module is to show you how to change the form's position in 3 different ways (On Bottom, Normal, On Top). •The OnBottom function works just like the OnTop function, keeping the form constantly behind any open window. •The Normal function returns the form to its normal state. •The OnTop function keeps the form constantly in front of any open window.

Make Tiles For Your Top Down View Game Easy! Will Continue To Add Features If I Get Votes! Suggestions And Comments Please. If Anyone Would Like To Work With Me On This Project Please Send Me An E Mail.

This is the source code for a very early version of a MMORPG I'm writing Aeonlegend (www.aeonlegendonline.com). It has a few features such as: -Loading from GIF files -Transparency in both 16 and 32 bit colour -Easy character and GUI editing You can make your own skins for the game by editing TOP.GIF, GUI.GIF and GUI.map. Please remember to comment and vote for this code. The more good feedback I get, the faster the game will get made. Note that my actual email is jimcamel@aeonlegendonline.com, the email in the text file is wrong. If you're looking for my old code I removed it, because some people were unable to read that the graphics were borrowed.

This program will lock your computer so that your data cannot be messed with. This program shows you how to do the foloowing: (1)Disable Ctrl-Alt-Del (Non-NT Windows), (2)Keep a form on top, (3)Basic File Input/Output, (4)Shutdown Windows (NT supported), (5)Use the TaskTray. There are other things as well, but this is the jist of it. Anyway, BEFORE YOU RUN THIS - MAKE SURE YOU LOOK AT THE CODE AND SEE HOW TO TURN IT OFF (Password, etc.)!!!

This app creates a new button (top right) for each window. This button if clicked on sends the app and all it's threads to the system tray with the correct icon. If you right click on the button, a list of already minimized apps comes up and you can select one and it will be removed from the tray and back to normal (or you can click on the system tray.. either way). If you use it for a day or so, you won't be able to stop using it. Although it is a bit hard to get used to. *UPDATES Since 1.0* ==================== - Multi-thread Windows now supported (ie VB6) - Added 'Balloon' Support for Win2000 users - Added Options Form (not much of an options form though) - Made much better about form - Removed many bugs (thanks for bug reports) - Zip file includes all files (sorry, had files in 2 folders for some reason) * Please leave comments on bug reports if any as I really want to make this app bug free. *

UPDATED! This will Encrypt up to 255 different files of ANY type into ONE file using the binary values of an ENTIRE separate file as the KEY, while not altering the file being used as the key in any way!! The file names of the encrypted files are also stored in the encryption and restored when decrypted. Looks and works similar to WinZip. Just drag the files you wish to Encrypt\Decrypt from Explorer into the large list, and drag the file you wish to use as the key into the small box on top, select a path and thats it! The small icons of all the files you working with are also displayed in the list for readability. The file being used as the key can be ANY type of file: .mp3, .bmp, .jpg, .txt, .exe, .zip, .dll or even another encrypted file. The file being used as the key can be ANY size. For maximum security, the file being used as the key should be slightly larger than the combined size of the files being encrypted and should have a limited amount repeating byte sequences. An example of a good key file would be an .mp3 or a large .zip file. This will make any effort at detecting a pattern more difficult and making the encryption harder to break. Even if this program is de-compiled, there is no "magical" algorithm or encryption table to discover that would make decryption any easier, since the encryption relies completely on the binary values of a whole separate file. No need to remember any long, complicated passwords or keys, JUST the name of ONE file!!! Just don't lose the file being used as the key.

I have been tinkering with the Windows API AnimateWindow function, and have wrapped it into a user control, which you can drop onto any top-level window. You simply call the controls CloseAnimation method from the form_unload event, and your window will roll or slide up, down, left, or right, or fade or zoom to nothing. This easy to use control has 2 main properties - the "AnimationEffect", and the "EffectDelay". The included example project here shows how easy it is to use. It seems that this API Function exists in Windows 98, ME, 2000, and XP (I was unable to get this to work with Windows 95 or Windows NT). I got varying levels of effectiveness depending on the OS. Keeping the EffectDelay to a minimum (500 or less) usually produces great results. This project has the default delay at 1000 to exagerate the effect, but you should set to 400 or 500 in your projects. Use the "Project1.vbp" to see the example, or include the CoolAnimate.ctl in your project to just use the user control. Hope this is helpful to some of you.

Smooth Effects 1.0 Will take any normal image that you specifie and make a working application intro from it! Smooth Effects 1.0 steps through each section of a image grabbing the cordinece once every set ammount of pixel's giving the image a floating cut out effect. on top of that the floating layers will move any direction while bouncing off the walls and still staying in propper order. No need to sift through my code to make your own intro! I have built in a intro creator that will generate all needed source code to create your very own intro with your very own image! Project includes 3 sample projects which where created with Smooth Effects along with 5 sample images you can play around with.

Cls StackCollection Use VB's Collections to build stacks and queues. Also included a safety wrapper for collections. To operate as a stack/queue you do not need a separate key, everything is done using the index This class adds new Methods and Properties to VB collections. ArrayFromCollection Put contents of stack into an array ArrayToCollection Load members of an array into the stack Bottom: Returns first value added to stack Clear: Empty stack in one call Exists: Tests if index/Key is in stack. Uses error trap to test Optionally runs silent if error occurs Extract: Remove any member from stack Invert: Reverse order of stack Max: Returns the highest alphanumeric member of stack Middle: Returns Middle member of stack Min: Returns the lowest alphanumeric member of stack. Pop: Use collection as a LIFO (Last In First Out) stack, removes member from stack. Pull: Use collection as a FIFO (First In First Out) stack, removes member from stack. Push: Wrapper for VB standard Add. Push is used by both LIFO & FIFO stacks. QuickSort: Sort stack into alphanumeric order RandomMember: Extract a random member of the stack(Optional RemoveIt as Boolean = False); if True remove from stack Replace: Change the Item for an Index/Key Shuffle: Randomise the contents of the stack Top: Returns last value added to array I have also included a class ClsSafeCollection which wraps the standard collection in a safety net Add: Modified to allow you to cope with the various error conditions that can occur Count: VB standard Collection.Count Item: Modified to allow you to cope with the 'Index/Key does not exist' error Remove: Modified to allow you to cope with the 'Index/Key does not exist' error Please comment and vote. May just have reinvented the wheel for many of you but hope you find some use for it. Feel free to use all or parts of this but leave copyrights in place and let me know about it at rojagilkrist@hotmail.com

Cant remember the important things in your busy schedule? Then have this code (Using MS Access Database). This code reminds you on the date and time set by you by a popup window which will be on top of all running applications. Prpoerly commented. You can reschedule the reminders. Can mark them as pending a or done. At start up checks all the reminders which are not shown previously bcoz this application was not running at that time.when you close it (by X) then it will be in the system tray.Dont forget to vote for me.

NeoEphemerix 2001 - v1 Beta 2 Written using VB 6 Requires 800x600 display or better This program is for astronomy hobbyists who want to create their own custom VB astronomical almanac program. It is a very complex program consisting hundreds of thousands of orbital computations and represents about 6 month's work so far. The program will generate high-precision ephemerides for the sun and planets from Mercury to Neptune. It has reached the beta level of functionality and I encourage any fellow astro-computationists to give it a try and offer any comments, bug reports and suggestions regarding it. Anyone who ever wanted to learn how to perform their own high-precision planetary orbit computations, may find the source code helpful, but the math required is rather advanced. A new version with even more computations is in the works. Any suggestions from users of this program will be considered in the design of future upgrades. NOTE: Due to the enormous size of the mathematical core modules and the complexity of the computations required to get almanic-like accuracy, the program takes about 30 minutes to compile into an executable on a 200 MHz machine and will produce a finished program about 4.3 megs in size. The visual magnitude computation of the planet Saturn will be applied to a future version, but magnitudes are computed for the other planets. The allowance for the rings contribution to its brightness hasn't been formulated yet. This version of the program does not yet specifically check to see if the date entered is in the proper range for the selected planet, so the following table is provided as a guide. VSOP87 Heliocentric coordinates are theoretically accurate to an arcsecond or better within the following ranges: Mercury to Mars - 2000 BC to 6000 AD Jupiter and Saturn - 1 BC to 4000 AD Uranus and Neptune - 6000 BC to 8000 AD To any users familiar with the astronomical algorithms of Jean Meeus and others, this program applies many of the same concepts, but at a higher level of precision not possible from the limited tables applied in the popular books on astronomical computing. It is based on a Visual BASIC implementation of the full VSOP87 theory of planetary orbits in spherical variables. Its theoretical heliocentric accuracy is to within ±1 arcsecond or better over the ranges specified for each planet in terms of dynamical time. Since the full theory is implemented, the accuracy of the orbit computations compares very favorably with the published almanacs. To achieve this level of accuracy, over 30,000 computational terms are applied to the raw, dynamical orbit computations. The computations include corrections for precession and the long-term effects of relativity on the orbits. Then corrections are applied for light-time, aberration, reduction to the standard FK5 system of coordinates and nutation. FEATURES INCLUDE: Both VSOP87 heliocentric and apparent geocentric ecliptical and equatorial coordinates Ephemerides tables can be generated by the day, hour or minute and can be saved to disk as plain text files Allowance for delta-T can be applied when known. Distances to the planets from the sun or Earth can be displayed in astronomical units, millions of kilometers or miles. Hour angles may be displayed in hours minutes and seconds, decimal hours, degrees minutes and seconds of arc or decimal degrees. Latitudes may be displayed in degrees minutes and seconds of arc or decimal degrees. A table showing the VSOP heliocentric position and geocentric ecliptical and equatorial coordinates for the sun and the eight major planets at any given moment can be displayed Basic astronomical data such as the mean and apparent obliquity of the ecliptic, mean and apparent sidereal time at Greenwich and nutation in longitude can also be computed. The program also has a stay-on-top feature that can be toggled to lock the window in front of other windows when needed. All program settings are preserved when the program terminates and are recalled the next time the program starts up. This program is still a rough draft but functional enough to be useful. I would appreciate any feedback on user of this code who are also into astro-computing, since it would help me to improve on future implementations.
