• Windows Forms How To Do?

  Hello,   Can any body tell me how to increase the size of the tool bar button of a tool bar programatically in C#. Thanks in advance Shaji Kumar.V.K Hi Shaji, If you are trying to choose the size of tool bar buttons in .NET 1.1 you can use the ButtonSize property of the toolBar: this .toolBar1.ButtonSize = new System.Drawing. Size (25, 25);   This sets the size of all of the buttons in the toolBar. If you are trying to resize individual buttons, unfortunately there is no clean way to do this since the buttons are enforced to all be the same size. If you are using the .NET 2.0 f ...Show All

• Visual C# Generic Collections with Events?

  Hi, I am trying to make a tabbed control of my own. It's for a text editor and since the default one doesn't have the close button or a nice litle overflow menu like mine does now, I needed to make my own. I have an implementation now, but I am not very happy with it. What I would love to be able to do is have something like the default TabbedControl, where you can do mTabControl.TabPages.Add(key, tabpage); I am trying to use Generics so I dont have to do casts every 2 seconds, but the Dictionary<> class does not have any events. Can someone point me in the right direction here Cheers, Aditya I w ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Manual Tests with Code Coverage for all assemblies

  Heya. I'm not sure I'm doing this the right way so I'll have to ask. I'm using Unit Tests together with Manual Tests and I'd like to view the Code Coverage information on these tests combined. The Unit Tests runs alright with Code Coverage but I'm not sure how I should run the Manual Tests to gather Code Coverage. Today, I just double-click the .exe in the bin/Debug folder but that seems to just collect code coverage information on the .exe, not the other .dlls. How do I go about running a Manual Test with Code Coverage Cheers, Chris Nope, you're not the only one who has this problem. The way coverage fo ...Show All
