Showing scrolling bars in UC

now i'm trying build a 2D Level Editor ActiveX control.
my 1st problem is for put the scroll bars in UC.
heres the code:

Code:

---

If vNewValue = ScrlBars Then Exit Property
    'for showing the scroll bars, the UC is resized
    If vNewValue = None Then
        ScrollingHorizontal.Visible = False
        ScrollingVertical.Visible = False
        'put the scroll bars outside of UC
        UserControl.Width = UserControl.Width - ScrollingHorizontal.Height
        UserControl.Height = UserControl.Height - ScrollingVertical.Width
        ScrollingHorizontal.Top = UserControl.Height + 100
        ScrollingVertical.Left = UserControl.Width + 100
    ElseIf vNewValue = Horizontal Then
        ScrollingHorizontal.Visible = True
        ScrollingVertical.Visible = False
        'put the horizontal scroll bar in right position
        'and the other outside of it
        UserControl.Width = UserControl.Width + ScrollingHorizontal.Height
        UserControl.Height = UserControl.Height - ScrollingVertical.Width
        ScrollingHorizontal.Top = (UserControl.Height - ScrollingHorizontal.Width) * Screen.TwipsPerPixelY
        ScrollingVertical.Left = UserControl.Width + 100
    ElseIf vNewValue = Vertical Then
        ScrollingHorizontal.Visible = False
        ScrollingVertical.Visible = True
        'put the vertical scroll bar in right position
        'and the other outside of it
        UserControl.Width = UserControl.Width - ScrollingHorizontal.Height
        UserControl.Height = UserControl.Height + ScrollingVertical.Width
        ScrollingHorizontal.Top = UserControl.Height + 100
        ScrollingVertical.Left = (UserControl.Width - ScrollingHorizontal.Height) * Screen.TwipsPerPixelX
    ElseIf vNewValue = Both Then
        If ScrlBars = Both Then Exit Property
        ScrollingHorizontal.Visible = True
        ScrollingVertical.Visible = True
        'put both scroll bars in right position
        UserControl.Width = UserControl.Width + ScrollingHorizontal.Height
        UserControl.Height = UserControl.Height + ScrollingVertical.Width
        ScrollingHorizontal.Top = (UserControl.Height - ScrollingHorizontal.Width) * Screen.TwipsPerPixelY
        ScrollingVertical.Left = (UserControl.Width - ScrollingHorizontal.Height) * Screen.TwipsPerPixelX
    End If
    ScrlBars = vNewValue

the scrolling bars aren't in right position, can anyone tell me what isn't right?
thanks

i change somethings in code:

Code:

---

If vNewValue = None Then
        ScrollingHorizontal.Visible = False
        ScrollingVertical.Visible = False
    ElseIf vNewValue = Horizontal Then
        ScrollingHorizontal.Visible = True
        ScrollingVertical.Visible = False
    ElseIf vNewValue = Vertical Then
        ScrollingHorizontal.Visible = False
        ScrollingVertical.Visible = True
    ElseIf vNewValue = Both Then
        ScrollingHorizontal.Visible = True
        ScrollingVertical.Visible = True
    End If

---

and

Code:

---

Private Sub UserControl_Resize()
    ScrollingHorizontal.Top = UserControl.Height - ScrollingHorizontal.Height
    ScrollingHorizontal.Width = UserControl.Width - 240
    ScrollingVertical.Left = UserControl.Width - ScrollingVertical.Width
    ScrollingVertical.Height = UserControl.Height - 240
End Sub

---

my proble here is the UserControl Resize event. what isn't right in code for change the scrollbars position?
thanks

i resolve my problem:

Code:

---

ScrollingHorizontal.Top = UserControl.Height / Screen.TwipsPerPixelY - ScrollingHorizontal.Height
    ScrollingHorizontal.Width = UserControl.Width / Screen.TwipsPerPixelX - 16
    ScrollingVertical.Left = UserControl.Width / Screen.TwipsPerPixelX - ScrollingHorizontal.Height
    ScrollingVertical.Height = UserControl.Height / Screen.TwipsPerPixelY - 16

---

now i have 2 questions:
-why i must multply or divide by Screen.TwipsPerPixelY or Screen.TwipsPerPixelx?
-when i know that i need use them?
thanks

how can i calculate the scrollbars max property value?
i just can't do these:

VerticalScrollBar.Max = PictureBox.Heigth
HorizontalScrollBar.Max = PictureBox.Width

because the max values depends, too, the UC size.
can anyone explain to me something?
thanks

ok. i resolve the problem.

Code:

---

Private Sub ScrollingValues()
    ScrollingVertical.Max = picView.Height - UserControl.ScaleHeight
    If ScrlBars = Vertical Or ScrlBars = both Then ScrollingVertical.Max = ScrollingVertical.Max + 17
    ScrollingHorizontal.Max = picView.Width - UserControl.ScaleWidth
    If ScrlBars = Horizontal Or ScrlBars = both Then ScrollingHorizontal.Max = ScrollingHorizontal.Max + 17
    If picView.ScaleHeight <= UserControl.ScaleHeight Then ScrollingVertical.Max = 0
    If picView.ScaleWidth <= UserControl.ScaleWidth Then ScrollingHorizontal.Max = 0
End Sub

---

and works fine.
thanks

how can i see the controls name in these UC?
i try these:
UserControl.ContainedControls.Item(1).Name
but i recive an error:
"invalid property array".
thanks

heres 1 thing 100% strange :(

Code:

---

Private Sub ScrollingHorizontal_Change()
    Dim i As Long
    Dim value As Long
    For i = 0 To UserControl.Controls.Count - 1
        If UserControl.Controls(i).Name = "Timer1" Or UserControl.Controls(i).Name = "Picture1" Or UserControl.Controls(i).Name = "ScrollingHorizontal" Or UserControl.Controls(i).Name = "ScrollingVertical" Then
        Else
            If value > ScrollingHorizontal.value Then
                UserControl.Controls(i).Left = UserControl.Controls(i).Left + 1
            ElseIf value < ScrollingHorizontal.value Then
                UserControl.Controls(i).Left = UserControl.Controls(i).Left - 1
            ElseIf value = 0 Then
            End If
        End If
    Next i
    value = ScrollingHorizontal.value
End Sub

---

when i click in left scrolling horizontal button, the controls move to the right. but if click in right button the controls move to the left. but why the controls move to the same way(instead move to the left it move to the right)? :(

ok... problem 100% resolved.
the value variable was changed for HorizontalValue. i create these variable in declation section and when i change the horizontalscrollbar max property i give these variable 0 value.
and i change morethings in code(if anyone want to know these code setp by step, just tell me):

Code:

---

Private Sub ScrollingHorizontal_Change()
    Dim i As Long
    For i = 0 To UserControl.Controls.Count - 1
        If UserControl.Controls(i).Name = "Timer1" Or UserControl.Controls(i).Name = "Picture1" Or UserControl.Controls(i).Name = "ScrollingHorizontal" Or UserControl.Controls(i).Name = "ScrollingVertical" Then
        Else
            If HorizontalValue > ScrollingHorizontal.value Then
                UserControl.Controls(i).Left = UserControl.Controls(i).Left + (Abs(ScrollingHorizontal.value - HorizontalValue))
            ElseIf HorizontalValue < ScrollingHorizontal.value Then
                UserControl.Controls(i).Left = UserControl.Controls(i).Left - (Abs(ScrollingHorizontal.value - HorizontalValue))
            End If
        End If
    Next i
    HorizontalValue = ScrollingHorizontal.value
End Sub
