• Windows Forms GDI+ Text spacing issue

  Ive had this problem with GDI+ for as long as I started with GDI+. When I draw text, especially long strings of text, the characters get closer and closer to one another. Now I know this is something that is rather well known, but is there any nice way of fixing it I've tried to change the text drawing mode, but that made the fonts look horrible (although it did fix the squashing up of the text). It really screws up alot of stuff, not ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. download sdk

  where can i download the directX sdk I've looked all over the Microsoft site and all i can find are updates. This is really fusterating thanks. I'm new to game dev. In order to simplify things, you can always visit http://msdn.com/directx/sdk and it will point you to the most-recent SDK.  In the future, you should use the full-qualified URL like Daniel used, as it it guaranteed to be an obsolete URL within ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. drawing a colored, transformed quad not working as expected

  So I just switched over to Managed DirectX For .Net 2.0, and since I can no longer draw an array of verticies, I've been playing with Generic.GraphicsBuffer(Of CustomVertex.TransformedColored). It gave me this odd shape with only 4 verticies specified: Screen Shot. The white is not part of my app, the quad should have been at location 100,100 with size 100,100... which looks right.  Any ideas on why the one face is reaching up to 0,0 ...Show All

• Visual Studio Stack walking using the new DIA SDK

  I’m trying to provide myself a call stack dump whenever my code causes an exception, and I want to use the DIA SDK rather than ImageHlp API. Ie I want to see the callstack when my program crashes, rather like the callstack is shown in VisualStudio, except I’m not using an out of process debugger – I want to do this in my own app. The DIA SDK provides some COM interfaces to support what I want to do, but unfortunately there is no d ...Show All

• Windows Forms Adding Record to Details Table

• Windows Forms DataGridView leaks due to insuficent ToolTip cleanup

  We have a control in our application that derives from the DataGridView control. I've spent all day tracking down leaks in our app using the SciTech profiler. I believe that I have found a leak in the DataGridView that occurs through the internal DataGridViewToolTip class. When the grid is setup to use tooltips and the first one is activated the underlying ToolTip coomponent is created and part of that initialisation is to figure out what ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Access violation errors

  Hi.   I'm trying to make a DirectShow app in C++. I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Express, and I don't want to use .NET for various uninteresting reasons. I can get programmes to compile fine, but every time I try to run them it comes up with access violation errors. I feel sure there's something fairly simple and probably fairly obvious I'm doing wrong, but I really don't know where to start figuring out what that thing is. In ...Show All
