yeah I can do that but is there anyway i can hide it at runtime. so i can show it if a certain condition and hide not.

thanks very much for the links. I will have a look.

Try to make you're project in .NET 3.0 I have the same issue at a moment, and this solve it

great thanks!

Thanks anyway

The length of the modifed post stopped me dead in my tracks!!! Excellence is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well.

Tricky but entirely possible. First thing I'd do is convert from Vorbis to a good old fasioned PCM wav file (get some third party thing to do this for you). You then need to interpret that, its in RIFF format which is pretty straight forward. The quiet bits between words will be represented by a series of smaller numbers. Large numbers represent loud noises. So you need to pass the file looking for periods of lower value samples. Set a threshold and minimum duration. By knowing where you are in the file and the sample rate you can work out the times of the quiet bits. You might need to potentially create some sort of low pass filter to remove any artifacts which could confuse the procedure. Sounds grim but its easy enough. Sort of vague, but hope that helps a bit.

Thanks for all your help. I was able to get the code for a c# hex editor and it helped me figure it out.

you can tell the imagelist what size to make your images: ImageList.ImageSize[^]. The docs say the default is 16x16 so if they're being scaled to 32x32 then maybe something is changing the default value and you need to reset it to the size you want.

Some controls have a suspend/resume layout which may be useful, I do not think you will get a good resolution unless you are doing a lot of processing in the container load. Never underestimate the power of human stupidity RAH

Oh, I'm sorry, I just misunderstood the question. You can try FlowChart.Net[^] Regards, Lev

thanks I will give it a go. Does anyone know of any code that i can work from?

try to search "tango images" on google. The're many great and catchy icon / images with GNU licence No one can prevent me to learn something

thanks. I thought that was the case but i just wanted to check.

Listen, USE USERCONTROLS Create only the main form and create as many usercontrols as you wish and load then in the main form, that will solve you problem if i get it right. You my have to type code from start. If for some reason you need forms, use child/parent forms method(child forms that load inside a parent form). Check here codeproject (i don´t recall the link) Thats me, but, you are the boss :sigh: nelsonpaixao@yahoo.com.br

Also you seem be completely ignoring the advice you got from senior developers when you asked this same question 3 days ago[^] You seem very confused about extremely simple things. I strongly suggest you take the advice you were given 3 days ago. led mike

Cool you are new to C#, may I suggest you try simpler tasks first. viciouskinid wrote: how do you apply the source code to a new project to implement the SkinTooltip control. You can either compile it as a dll library and reference it, I did this earlier. Or, you can add a source file to your project and just add it in. viciouskinid wrote: Can someone either let me know a good place to go and learn or even give me a bit of a walk through.
