well you need to create yourself a scale system.
Dim ZoomScale as decimal = 1 'for 100%<br />
Dim OriginalSize as Size = me.textbox.size<br />
Dim PreZoomFont as Font
then on when the user changes the zoom do this: If they put in an integer value, divide it by 100. Then multiply the textbox's width and height by this value and the font size by this value also.
For instance:
User enters: 135%
ZoomScale = 135/100 'Need to keep track of this so you can go back to 100 or any other scale.<br />
me.textbox.size = new size(me.textbox.width * Zoomscale, me.textbox.height * Zoomscale)<br />
'can't remember exactly how to do the font but i'm sure you'll figure that out.<br />
'This could need some work it's just conceptual
|
|
|
|
|
i think to use the ruler like control but i can't find any thing like that
i need to zoom but also make the richtextbox to change the size like a4 to letter or envelop
|
|
|
|
|
well...if you have those page measurements stored, a4 is 297 mm x 210 mm, then you can easily sort page size, for instance, set the width then adjust the height by the ratio of (298/210)

Hi.. all
i'm new in visual basic.NET. Recently i make some program that running 24 hour, like server. When i test my code, i founded my usage of memory actually keep rising and make my computer hang.
So, can anyone give me some comment???

Call Dispose on any objects you are allowing to go out of scope, if it's offered.

Hi ...
Thanks to give me some comment.
I was call Dispose function to release any object that i created... but it my code still increase usage memory. in 8 hour, my memory increase 100 KBytes.
Actually i created some service application to accessing a serial port.
Here some code that i used to read a serial port continously:

Don't keep things around that you no longer need; examples: when no longer needed
- a Form should be closed, not hidden;
- a file, a socket, ... should be closed;
- an object should be removed from whatever collection it happens to be in (List,
ArrayList,...).
As far as Dispose() goes, adding to what Christian said, most people seem to
forget Disposing of dialogs (don't know if that really is relevant to server software)
You are not calling CreateGraphics by any chance ? Most methods with create in their
name return objects that you should also dispose of.

Do you know any free profiler (without time limit) that would do
a reasonable job at it ?
TIA
|
|
|
|
|
Nope I haven't found one yet, although I have been looking ... let me know if you do! 
|
|
|
|
|
i think there are not free.... we must buy
|
|
|
|
|
if you will use
gc.waitforpendingfinalizers
gc.collect()
at the end of every function or process this would save lot of memory. My Application had the same problem but using this reduced the size of memory usage.
hope this helps

hi...
So, i must call a GC function in my function. I never used it before but i will try it. thanks to send me a comment

I need to develope an application that should extract the mail content and send the automatic SMS,MAIL,FAX how cai i do this please gide me...

Your question is too broad. Sending email is trivial, you can google for info on fax and SMS components, I think there's articles on this site, also.

in the window application setup properties, there is a button by the name of prerequisites. When i clicked that , i got three options there.
1.Download prerequisites from the component vendor web site
2.download prerequisite from the same location as my application
3.download prerequisite fom the following location
and there is a list box , which is having exe's components.
.net framework is checked there.
can somebody please explain me these things

1. vendor website= Microsoft Website (Framework is free)
2. From the location of your PC
3. self explanatory.

one moe question i wanted to ask.
using option2, is there any need left -- to install the .net project on the machine not having the .net framework -- to install the .net framework manually.

Look, the bottom line is...
.Net framework available in PC = No need to install
.Net framework is NOT available in PC = Need to install
(Both are applicable for any .NET program to run)
--------------------------------

|
|
|
|
if i choose the option2 download prerequisite from the same location as my application, that means , in this case the framework should be placed with the setup.msi file?so that the setup file automatically detects the framework

Hi all Coders
Now that windows vista is becoming increasingly more popular, I find that existing packages that were developed still have the look and feel of windows Xp , How can I as an aspiring developer create screen that have a more modern look and feel similar to the forms in windows vista.
