Replacing text in TextBox without the blinking
-
Hey, I'm making a progress screen for an application and when I'm uploading a file he gives the "percentage progress" IN the text (realtime). That's nice and good BUT I always have to do:
txt1.Text = txt1.Text.replace(previousPercentage, newPercentage)And because there is a lot of text in my textbox it starts to blink when it's refreshed (it doesn't blink when I add something to it). How can I solve this problem? thx! -

Not the textbox, but the whole update of your control.

Hey, Do I have to import something for that? And what do you mean with the whole update of your control? Do I have to make a new class, instance, interface? Our just: BeginUpdate(); ApplicationDirector.Instance.removeCharachtersFromProgressScreen(lenghtWrittenString); EndUpdate(); (but that doesn't work) :)

Say you have a progressbar control with the text on it (we'll call an instance of it superProgressBar), then you would normally do
superProgressBar.BeginUpdate();superProgressBar.Increment();superProgressBar.EndUpdate();The Increment method would be responsible for updating the scroll bar and writing the text on it. Also, you might want to consider setting up double buffering. Use the followingthis.SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint | ControlStyles.UserPaint | ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer,true);Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.
