Call GetSystemMetrix() and pass SM_CXVIRTUALSCREEN/SM_CYVIRTUALSCREEN as the parameter. The call would return the size of the virtual screen of all monitors. Best, Jun

When you are adding controls dynamically to the page, you need to ensure the childcontrol exists on the other call. This you can do either by adding everytime when you call the page. protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { Load(); } then it works fine. let me know whether it works or not? I will on-line only.

You can do it in Microsoft Visio. The version that I am using is Microsoft Visio Enterprise Architects (10.0.2705). In this version follow the below to do it: 1) Click UML menu item in the main menu 2) Select 'Code', click 'Generate' cheers...mil10.

hi Oskars! :) you can put you custom control on a floating window. this window will be on top of all window, just like the list of the combobox. try to look at this[^] to have an idea how to make a floating window. hope that helps! :) microsoc :cool:

hi oskars! :) you can use the PointToScreen method to convert the Location value into a screen coordinate value. hope that helps! :) microsoc :cool:

You have answered your own question, actually. If you create a boolean property inside a user control and then add the user control into a form (should be visible in the designer mode), then you can see the property in the Property Page of VS.NET editor. There has to be more to life than just this

Thanks - it was very fast :)

The Page object has a bool IsPostBack property. Put your form loading code inside an "if" statement only if IsPostBack is false.

Hi there, Take a look at this site: http://www.connectionstrings.com/[^]

Even though you're trying to capture a 2D sprite, you're using Direct3D, right? So in reality, you're trying to click on a section of a plane in 3D space. This presents additional computation, since you have to convert the mouse position on the screen into a Ray in 3D space. It's not as simple as the 2D case, I'm afraid :( It takes a bit of explanation, and I'm in the process of compiling an article on the subject, but there really isn't room to describe the process here. You may want to poke around the internet for some keywords like "3D hit testing" "ray picking" and the like. Bob Ciora
