my form gets the black effect while resizing or maximizing the form
i want to remove that black screen effect
can someone help in that
You really have to explain what the black effect is.
I suspect it could be that you make some task in the OnResize event in the rendering thread that prevents it from repainting the window. But this is really speculation.

I'm faced with an issue I do not know how to tackle. I need to implement a function in python or C that allows me to hover( with the mouse) over the entire windowed application and stop when the mouse pointer icon changes. Any help or tip as to how I can attain this will be appreciated. Thank you.
I have created a usercontrol that is essentially a text editor (using Graphics.Drawstring in OnPaint).
I have set AutoScroll = true, and AutoScrollMinSize values appropriately. Everything is working how it should...
EXCEPT, i would like the control to scroll itself WHILST I am currently scrolling (i.e. click and drag the scroll bar... and whilst it is being dragged the control should be scrolling the entire time). At the moment it only scrolls when the scroll bar is released (mouse up).
I have tried implementing _Scroll and invalidating the control, but that just makes it flicker uncontrollably.
I cannot find any examples online for this, due to it being difficult to describe!
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Control.Invalidate() will make something flicker badly. I faced this problem drawing cross-hairs over a mouse position on a PictureBox drawing a line chart before. The trick is to use (and I cant remember which one is best to come first)
Control.Update();
Control.Refresh();
in the Scroll event. Depending on what else you are drawing in the Control and how you are drawing it this may be better for you. Also this is tested on PictureBox, Control may be another matter.
I've got a drawing area inside a scrolled window (with convenience viewport),
and this drawing area updates itself according to incoming motion-notify-events.
When I scroll the area though obviously no motion events are emitted,
but I wanted to work around this, and so tried to connect the drawing area's
"scroll-event" signal to the same motion-notify callback.
The problem I'm facing here is that this signal is emitted before the scrolled window
has update its viewport, so in the callback, I end up with pointer coordinates that were true just before scrolling, making it look like the drawing area is always "lagging a step behind" the actual pointer when scrolling while not moving the pointer itself.
I thought I could compensate for this by manually extracting the coordinates with gdk_window_get_pointer, but then I realized this cannot work as the pointer is technically still at its old position when the callback is commencing.
I also tried using g_signal_connect_after in hopes it would have the callback get called after the viewport was scrolled, but it didn't help.
My last hope would be to start a timer on scroll-events, and have the callback fire after a minimal amount of time, but this sounds realllly ugly, and I'd like to avoid that at any cost.
Any ideas as to how this could be realized?
Thanks in advance!
A solution would be to connect to the "value-changed" signal of the GtkScrolledWindow
adjustments.

I am making a flash card application. It shows the question and then a textbox for user input, all wrapped in a border or rectangle. So what I want is an animation that "flips" the rectangle or border upside-down and then their is text on the "back". Also, I want my application to APPEAR transition from one card to another by "flying off" the screen then "another" card comes in to replace the other one in the opposite direction. But actually I'm want just a little animation of the border or rectangle moving off the screen then coming back in, but in the opposite direction. Some help would be appreciated, like what kind of animation can accomplish this and maybe a small code sample to demonstrate. I am not asking you write all this, I think that would be a little rude (unless you really want to).
Have you had a look at the Silverlight FX stuff? There might be some animations in there that are what you are looking for. There are also samples provided.

I currently have a Silverlight canvas that exceeds the viewable area of the screen (I'm letting the users drag the viewable areas around to navigate). I'm trying to display a modal popup that always shows up in the middle of the viewable area, and I can't seem to find any property that tells me what currently is on the screen. Basically if the user has panned down to the bottom and clicks something that causes a modal popup to appear it is stuck at the far top of the screen.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks

I don't think this is possible since the visibility isn't being surfaced. Perhaps with some fun JavaScript to figure out where the panning is?
Quite true. I wound up creating a holding canvas, making that full screen, and putting everything else as a child canvas within that. The modal popup now comes up in the holding canvas.
Gabriel Guimarães one works good.
App.Current.Host.Content.ActualHeight(and ActualWidth) does bring the browser size inside. Good for calculating position. And of course you can use LayoutUpdated on your main control to double check the sizes and resize stuff if need be.
