Visual Basic :: Dragging Listview From One Form To Another Form..

Dragging A Form
Hi all,

I have created a form that pops up and follows the curser around the screen when you are dragging an item from one list to another. This works with a timer on the form that repeatedly repositions the form next to the curser using the GetCursorPos function. I have a text box on this form that I want the user to be able to type in whilst dragging an item. If the moue button is not held down (and the form is just following the cursor), the text box accepts text quite happily, but when the mouse is held down as you are dragging an item, te text box does not accept text any more!?
I have tried using the GetKeyState function in the timer loop combined with a loop to go through the ascii key codes, to place letters that are pressed after the existing text in the box, but that doesnt account for the other keys on the keyboard such as the curser keys, delete, backspace, etc.

Does anybody have any suggestions on how I can make the text box accept input while the mouse button is pressed and dragging?

Any help would be great

Thanks in advance, Al.

Dragging Out Of My Form
Hi, I'm using drag/drop to remove certain objects from my form. I got most of it working so far.. I can drag an item over a certain object and it removes this object from the form. But i want to be able to drag the item outside the form and have it get removed as well. Any idea's?

Form Dragging
Ok, i have 3 forms, and my form1 is my main form, and what i want is that whenever the main form is dragged and moved around then the 2 other forms will move along with it.

So far i have this, but it will only work when you click on the back of the form, which i dont want as i want it to happen when you click the caption bar thing.

VB Code:
Private Done as Boolean Private Sub Form_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single) If Button = vbLeftButton Then Done = True End IfEnd Sub Private Sub Form_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single) If Button = vbLeftButton Then Done = False End IfEnd Sub Private Sub Form_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)'Snapping If Done = True Then If frmMulti.SnapPlaylist.Value = 1 Then frmPlaylist.Top = Me.Top frmPlaylist.Left = Me.Left + Me.Width End If If frmMulti.SnapExtra.Value = 1 Then frmMulti.Left = Me.Left frmMulti.Top = Me.Top + Me.Height End If End IfEnd Sub

Dragging The Form
Code:
Private Declare Function SendMessage Lib "user32" Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, lParam As Any) As Long

Code:
Private Declare Function ReleaseCapture Lib "user32" () As Long

Code:
Private Const WM_MOVE = &HF012

Code:
Private Const WM_SYSCOMMAND = &H112

Code:
Sub MoveTheForm(NameOfForm As Form)

Code:
Call ReleaseCapture

Code:
Call SendMessage(NameOfForm.hwnd, WM_SYSCOMMAND, WM_MOVE, 0)

Code:
End Sub

I'm trying to make it so the user can drag the form when he clicks anywhere on the form. However, the code is not working!! I'm using the above declerations and then calling it like this:

Private Sub Form_Click()
Call MoveTheForm(Form1)
End Sub

however, this is not doing anything!! What's wrong??

Dragging The Form
is there a message or something the program receives while the window is being dragged across the screen?

i want to be able to make another form 'stick' to the bottom of this form, but i don't know how to find out if the form is being dragged.

Dragging Controls Around A Form
I have an array of shape controls on my form. At runtime, I would like the user to be able to freely drag and drop the shapes around the form using their mouse.

I was thinking that this might be something to do with Shape1_DragDrop event, but I've not managed to get this to work.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Dragging A Frame Onto A Form
Hello people,
Maybe a trivial question, but I have some problems in doing that:
Simply I need to drag a frame on a surface occupied by a FlexGrid (fg). The only thing I need is this:
Ckick on the frame, drag it to another position of the fg and drop there.
I have set this code:

Private Sub Frame2_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Frame2.DragMode = vbManual
m_intX = X
m_intY = Y
Frame2.Drag vbBeginDrag

Private Sub fg_DragOver(Source As Control, X As Single, Y As Single, State As Integer)
Frame2.Move X - m_intX, Y - m_intY
End Sub

Indeed the thing works, but only if the mouse pointer is not dragged on the frame itself. It is not so easy to explain, therefore please give me a suggestion to do that better.

Thank You to Everyone
Regards

Dragging Controls In A Form
This is what I would like to accomplish: I am dragging an image that will drop somewhere in the form. This is what's in my code:

VB Code:
Private LeftofImage1 As LongPrivate TopofImage1 As LongPrivate inmovement As Boolean Private Sub Image1_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single) LeftofImage1 = X TopofImage1 = Y inmovement = TrueEnd Sub Private Sub Image1_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single) If inmovement = True Then Image1.Top = Image1.Top - (TopofImage1 - Y) Image1.Left = Image1.Left - (LeftofImage1 - X) End IfEnd Sub Private Sub Image1_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single) inmovement = FalseEnd Sub

LeftofImage1 and TopofImage1 are the X and Y values of my image control before dragging, and inmovement checks whether or not it's still MouseDown.

Just to clairify, the image flickers to the opposite direction of where I want to go. Does anybody know how to fix this?

Form Dragging Event?
Is there any way to detect when the Form is being dragged?
I need some sort of event that fires continously when the form is being dragged, I mean like someone Mouse_Down in the titlebar and move the Form.
Some sort of Form_Resize event, but for dragging.

Dragging Image On Form W/ Layers
Hello all. I've created a program that allows the user to drag pictures from one form to another, and also anywhere within a form. If the user is dragging the picturebox within the same form, the picture moves with the cursor (it doesn't just appear at the new cursor position when the drag is complete). I've used the BitBlt API to accomplish some of my program.

My problem: Along with what I currently have I would like one form to have multiple layers. I would like a user to be able to click on a picture and be able to type what layer to move it to in a textbox (say 1-10), or use arrows to move it a layer up or down, or some sort of system. Annnnyway, any suggestions of how to accomplish this?

Thanx

Stop Form From Dragging Off-Screen
I've searched this quite a bit and keep coming up with the same results... all of which don't really solve the problem...

I have a form that I want users to drag, however, I do not want the form to cross the edges of the screen. That is, I do not want any part of the form to disappear outside the screen. The only code I've found close to this is one to snap the form to the edge of the screen (while still allowing it to be pushed outside the screen).

I've tried using the mouse position API for the form, but it doesn't capture the X and Y coordinates for when you're over the form's border. I understand this to only see the INSIDE of the form, and not the form's border included.

Thanks in advance!

MScomm Troubles Dragging Non Modal Form
I experienced this problem:
If I use a MScomm control receiving a continous stream of data from a serial port and I open and drag a non modal window the operating system crash after few seconds of operation.
Anybody experienced the same?
Have someone any hints or ideas to workaround the problem?

To duplicate the effect:

1. create a new project.
2. Add a form as Form2
3. on Form1 * * * three buttons "startcom", "stopcom", "newform"
4. add a MScomm1.ocx control
5. add a label1 and edit its caption = "0"
5. Paste the below code

note: The Startcom button open the comm port 1 at 38400 (but also different baud rate generates the same problem).
The Stopcom button stop the communications

6. Run the program
7. If you click on startcom the label1 begins to count the commevent
if you click on stopcom the label1 stops to count

8. If you click on newform a new form (form2) not modal will be opened
9. If the comm port is closed you can drag the form and continue
to drag it for an indefinite period of time around the desktop
10. if you open the comm and open a newform and drag it
for a while; the software will continue to process the oncomm events
but soon all the system will crash...

Any ideas???
Thank you!

Code:::

Private Sub startcom_Click()
MSComm1.Settings = "38400,n,8,1"
MSComm1.CommPort = 1
MSComm1.PortOpen = True
End Sub

Private Sub stopcom_Click()
MSComm1.PortOpen = False
End Sub

Private Sub newform_Click()
Form2.Show 0
End Sub

Private Sub MSComm1_OnComm()
a$ = MSComm1.Input
Label1.Caption = Val(Label1.Caption) + 1
End Sub

MDI Child Form Auto Scroll When Dragging
Here is my problem :

I have a couple of pictureboxes in an MDI child form that is bigger than its parent MDI form.
All pictures can be dragged from one box to another.
But because not all the pictureboxes are visible ( unless you scroll the MDI form ), it is impossible to drag let say Picture1 into Picture10 because Picture10 is not accessible.
Is there a way on drag event to make the MDI Form scroll automatically when it hits the borders of the form ?
Thanx !

Finding Out If The Form Itself Is Being Moved By Dragging On The Title Bar... ?
Hello ppl...

I'm using windows 2000's layering abilities to make my form semi-transparent when a user drags it around and make it opaque when the mouse button is released. The problem is that I can't find a way to check if the form is being dragged around. The mouse events of the form do not fire when the title bar is being dragged. All i want is a mechanism that tells me if the title bar is being dragged or not. Can anyone help me?

Dragging Form / Slider Etc. Stops Execution
My code needs to transmit regular packets onto a serial bus, however when the user holds the mouse down on a slider etc. then the transmit function stops until they let go

Is there a clever way to continue processing whilst this is happening?

I am thinking multithreading might be a way around this problem but is there a simpler way?

Listview - Turning Off Dragging
I'm in one of my old apps and noticed that for some reason I used a listview control when a listbox "might" have done the job. My comments aren't as good as they should be (lesson learned). Anyway, since I'm not sure why I used a listview instead of a listbox I'm not willing to replace it. I don't have the time.

So... Is there a property (that I can't find) that turns off dragging of items in the listview control?

Thanks,
Bernie

Dragging Multiple Items From A Listview
i have some code to let users drag an item from a listview onto a treeview node, which works fine, but now i want to let them drag multiple items.

the problem is that when then select a bunch of items, then drag them to the treeview, it leaves only the last item they clicked on selected (as if they selected them, then just left-clicked one of them). is there a way to keep them all selected?

also, just out of interest, is there a way to make the drag icon include some text from each selected listview item along with an icon (like when you drag multiple files in windows explorer)?

thanks for any help

Problem With ListView Control And Dragging
I'm trying to drag an item from one ListView control to another but whenever I click on any of the items the first item is selected no matter which I have clicked on.

Please Double Check This Dragging From ListBox To ListView Code For Me
I want to drag an item from a listbox to a listview so starting with my lisbox code:

Private DragID As Integer
Private blnAmDragging As Boolean

Code:
Private Sub lstUnalloc_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x As Single, y As Single)
If Button = vbLeftButton Then
DragID = lstUnalloc.ItemData(lstUnalloc.ListIndex)
End If
End Sub

Code:

On Error GoTo errh

If Button = vbLeftButton Then
If lstUnalloc.ListIndex >= 0 Then
blnAmDragging = True

End If

End If

Exit Sub

errh:
errmsg "The following Exception occured : " & Err.Description & ", " & Err.Source & "", "Exception occured in frmMain.lstUnalloc_MouseMove ()"

End Sub

and now my listview:

Code:

ListView In A New Form?
I have a CommonDial a user uses to select a DB, I want a new form to open containing the ListView populated by the users selected DB. Also how do I send a form a variable. Can I change a forms properties and controls from a different form(like changes options Napster). Thanks for any input on the subject. Please suggest any tutorials as well.

ListView To Another Form
I have two forms. The main form is a data entry form. The second form is a search form with a listview that displays the results.
On the search form, when the user clicks the record he wants to go to. I want that record to be displayed on the main data entry form. I need the code to do this.

Get ListView Items From Another Form!
Assume that there are 2 Forms - frm1 & frm2. When a CommandButton is clicked in frm1, frm2 gets loaded. frm2 has a ListView where in users can add items (which they will have to type in a TextBox) by clicking an Add CommandButton. Items can also be deleted from the ListView by clicking a Remove CommandButton.

What I want is as & when the contents of the ListView changes & frm2 is unloaded, the change in contents in the ListView should be available to frm1. So for e.g. if the ListView has the following 3 items

India
Japan
China

& the user removes Japan from the ListView & then unloads frm2, a MsgBox in frm1 should display India & China. Since I want the change in contents of the ListView to be read when frm2 unloads i.e. when frm1 gets activated, I am coding the MsgBox in frm1's Form_Activate event function:
VB Code:
Private Sub Form_Activate() Dim i As Integer For i=1 To frm2.ListView1.ListItems.Count MsgBox frm2.ListView1.ListItems(i).Text NextEnd Sub
But the MsgBox doesn't display the correct items when frm2 gets unloaded.

Assume I remove Japan from the ListView. When frm2 unloads, the MsgBox in frm1 still displays the items as India, Japan & China where as I want the MsgBox to display only India & China since I have already deleted Japan from the ListView in frm2.

Where am I erring?

Treeview To Listview On Another Form..
Well I found out the best way for me to do this...

Code:
Private Sub Command1_Click()

Dim ListCount As Integer
Dim tvText As String
Dim tvKey As String
Dim Sum As Long
Dim i As Long
Dim ListItem1 As ListItem
Dim k As Integer
Dim lTot As Long
'Fix it so that when no Item is selected and you sellect show and addd to list no crash vbnullstring
'from db
If txtfields(2) = vbNullString Then
MsgBox "Please select an item first!", vbCritical
Exit Sub
End If

tvText = TV.SelectedItem.Text
tvKey = TV.SelectedItem.Key

If TV.Nodes(TV.SelectedItem.Index).Index > 0 Then
With frmList.ListView1
Set ListItem1 = .ListItems.Add(, , tvText)
ListItem1.SubItems(1) = rs.Fields("OrderNo")
ListItem1.SubItems(2) = rs.Fields("Description")
ListItem1.SubItems(3) = rs.Fields("ListPrice")
ListItem1.SubItems(4) = rs.Fields("DiscSchedule")

For k = 1 To .ListItems.Count
Set ListItem1 = .ListItems(k)
lTot = lTot + Val(ListItem1.SubItems(3))
Next
frmList.Text1.Text = FormatCurrency(lTot)
frmList.Text2.Text = .ListItems.Count

End With
End If

Command1.Caption = "Add to List"
Command2.Visible = True

End Sub

I am sure this was easy for some of you.. I am a newbie at Listview... Thnaks to all that responded....

Listview Populate From Another Form?
How do I populate a listview from another form? The form with the listview has a sub called 'PopulateListView' and is an MDI child. I tried calling the sub from another form with: frmName.PopulateListView, which works, but opens the form if it's not open.

I've been fiddling with this for a long time, so any help appreciated.
