Hi
I have created a splash screen on my own i want my original screen to be appear completely before the splash screen vanishes ....please if any one knows how to calculate the loading time of the form then please do let me know
this is my code for the splash screen
>>> Timer is calling this function .....so its the starting form of mine
private void check(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (i < 1 && status == true)
{
this.Opacity = i;
i = i + 0.1;
if (i > 0.9)
{
status = false;
}
}
else if (status == false)
{
this.Opacity = i;
i = i - 0.1;
}
if (i < 0.1)
{
timer1.Stop();
this.Hide();
printsoftwareparent psf = new printsoftwareparent();
psf.Show();
}
}

I suspect you can calculate form loading time only approximately if you can at all so instead I suggest that the main form signals splash screen form when finishes initialization.

You can start other applications using Process class but I don't think you will be able to estimate their load time.

Maybe not a very good way of doing it, but how about getting DateTime.Now when your app starts, and DateTime.Now when it's finished loading, calculate the difference. Should give you a fairly accurate time.

He is interested in knowing load time before the application has loaded.

insert a timer in your form and enable it after all code in Form Load event, like:
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
timer1.Enabled = true;
}
then in timer1_Tick event, show your splash screen.
if you want to delay in showing splash screen then just increase the timer1 interval
NOTE: Do not forget to disable timer, you can disable it in timer1_tick event.
private void timer1_tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
timer1.Enabled = false;
}
hope it will help.

Thanks for the suggestions ...in mean time i have done something its working satisfactory but not as i expected
private void check(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (i < 1 && stat== true)
{
this.Opacity = i;
i = i + 0.1;
if (i > 0.9)
{
stat = false;
printsoftwareparent psp = new printsoftwareparent();
psp.Show();
this.BringToFront();
}
}
else if (stat == false)
{
this.Opacity = i;
i = i - 0.1;
}
if (i < 0.1)
{
timer1.Stop();
this.Hide();
}
}

you have said that you want to show splash screen just like Acrobat Reader
that mean the splash screen should show after the Form1.
as i read your code, you are trying to show Splash screen as fading
but you doing little wrong, read my previous post carefully that will help you

I would like to clear...what i said
Firstly the splash screen comes and in the background the software parent form gets loaded as the form screen disappears with in no time the parent form must appear
splash screen is shown to hide the slow loading of the parent form
i hope i am clear

TRY THIS !!!!
in timer properties..set Enabled to true and interval to 1
private void SplashScreen_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
timer.Enabled = false;
this.Opacity = 0;
}
private void timer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (Splash > 2)
{
timer.Enabled = false;
this.Hide();
frmLogin Login = new frmLogin();
Login.Show();
}
else
{
Splash += 0.01;
this.Opacity = Splash;
}
}

hello,
I am storing some of my GUI settings in config file which is accessible to user. If user changes the settings then application has to be restrted with the updated settings.
As soon as settings are changed and saved i am doing Application.ExitThread();
and calling Application.Restart();
I found that Application.Restart() is not consistent. I am facing two problems here:
1). Some times it does not reflects the updated settings to config file before restart and start with previous settigns only.
2). Some times it doesn't terminate the current aprocess before starting the new application process.
Is there any better way to use Application.Restart() or so simply to restart the application?
Thanks.

You can create a bat file which kills your application and starts it.
|
|

|

try this:
Application.Exit()
Application.Restart()

Hi Guy
No need call exit() method, when call Application.Restart(), this command to tell to AppDomain get the Expoler url with this porcess name, and store in the AppDomaian, after a few seconds automcatically wrapper the anotehr and call this url in the explorer(NOT Internet expolrer). and start the process.
Thanks

Buddy the Application.Restart() restarts the application as another process but it dont closes the Current running app. so to close it we need to call Exit()

Hey all
i have a little promblem with a dataGridView, let me explain the scenario
in my db i have a table (timeCategories) that references its self. for example
(i put dashes cuz the page takes out white space automaticly)
[TimeCatID]-[TimeCatName]-[TimeCatRate]-[Normal]-[AlternateTimeCat]
[0]---------[NormalTime]-----[1.0]---------[1]------[1]
[1]---------[OverTime1.5]----[1.5]---------[0]------[1]
the alternate time category references the TimeCatId in the same table so the alternate time category for Normal Time would be OverTime1.5
now the problem is this, in my app i have a DataGridView that Displays the data of this table, but the AlternateTimeCat column has to be a DataGridViewComboBoxCell that is databound to the same table's TimeCatID (valueMember) and TimeCatName(dsiplayMember)
I found some articles the cover DataGridViewComboBoxCell but in the new DataGridViewComboBoxCell.items are added programmaticly
can someone plz help or point me in a direction
thanx!
