Transperent Textbox

[Inhumanoid]

I need a function that will collapse all for a given treeview

[kandan]

hi,

Try this 1..

TreeView1.SelectedItem.Expanded = False

note: this is only collapse the node which is selected..

Yeah, I know...

I could do something like this:



Private Function collapse_all()
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To tvwTree.Nodes.Count
tvwTree.Nodes(i).Expanded = False
Next
End Function



But this also tries to collapse Nodes wich don't have children and it also tries to collapse nodes wich are allready collapsed...
At least that's what I think...

Hi,
Any body know how to make a transperent textbox like a transperent Label

This should simulate a transparent textbox
set these proepries:
Apperance : 0- Flat
Backcolor : Buttonface or whatever your app's backcolor is
Borderstyle : 0- None

Hope this will work for you :)

but what can you do to really make it transparent? e.g. if there is a picture on the background. I'm sure API can solve this (it can do everything else :))

thank you

hi,

I was wondering if it could go transperent also..

I was using a label and an up or down arrow to allow users to scroll through my label..

but the problem is that this caused major flickerage...


Thanks, :)

To make a window transparent, call the SetWindowLong api call with WS_EX_STYLE index and the existing window ex style + WS_EX_TRANSPARENT

You will need to refresh the window for the transparency to take effect...

HTH,

thanks for the help,

bu I just decided that a texbox is the way to go..

you know..

it only wrecks the whole feel of my app.. :(
makes it look poor... :( :( but i'm ok with that..

:D

just kidding!!

It still looks ok, but I would have liked a textbox with no background, like, a BG style with 'Transperent' instead of 'Opaque'...


:(

Thanks anyways, :)

Merrion: Does this work with Win98 ?

[MerrionComputin]

I don't have Win9x so I couldn't say - but MSDN (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/winui/winui/windowsuserinterface/windowing/windows/windowreference/windowfunctions/createwindowex.asp) seems to indicate that it would...

Same problem here.. but I gave the program to some testers and the win98 and even win2k guys told me the box wouldn't get transparent... I just searched PlanetSourceCode and read a remark, which said it should work on win2k but not on win98..

However, I'd prefer my code to run on win98, too -.-*
