I'm currently thinking of a new pet project, an "editor" for MIDI-enabled synths. I've got the MIDI side covered, I suppose, but what I'm looking for right now is something that can pass for nice "dials" and "knobs" like you see in Ableton Live, Reason, Reaktor, and so forth.
Putting my form full of trackbars, is sort of wasteful, y'know?
So, what is a nice affordable .NET 2.0 library that has that sort of graphical components?
1- http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/industrial_controls.aspx has some related controls (C#)
2- http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/desaijm/KnobControlusingWindowsForms11182005004925AM/KnobControlusingWindowsForms.aspx is another C# based Knob Control
Used the (2) personally on one project and it worked great (though not visually very strong). (1) looks cooler but havn't explored
Check out some of these. If none just do search for ".net gauges". Most of the major UI control libraries have a gauge or dashboard library.

I've never used this myself, but found KineticaRT controls. $67.06.

GMSI.Net Knob v2.0. $169.00.

RadSyntaxControl is newly created control from Telerik and has a feature for InteliPrompts but in every sample, I found out the user must manually populate CompletionInfoCollection, as you can see in this example.
CompletionInfoCollection completionList = new CompletionInfoCollection()
{
new CompletionInfo("Achitect", "A software developer expert.", Image.FromFile(#"../../SyntaxEditor/ Achitect.png")),
};
this.radSyntaxEditor1.SyntaxEditorElement.IntelliPrompts.CompletionListWindow.Presenter.CompletionListItems = completionList;
It is ok if there are just a few items for autocomplete but what in a case if I want to autocomplete for language like C#. Telerik has a syntax highlight for C#, but I cannot find a way to populate IntelliPromts with data in that manner.
The sample code is from Telerik Blogs
Thank you :)
Nenad,
As you have already found out, RadSyntaxEditor uses a CompletionInfoCollection to define intelliprompts which aim to speed up coding by reducing typos and other common mistakes. It is just necessary to define a separate CompletionInfo for each item that you want in the completion list window. It is up to you what list to be displayed and how you will get this information. This job is not intended to be done by the RadSyntaxEditor control. Additional information is available in the following help article: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/controls/syntax-editor/features/intelliprompts
I have researched in the forums and since the English version of IntelliSense files are embedded in Visual Studio, I have found the following MSDN article which offers different language packs for the IntelliSense. Hence, you can at least use it to investigate what are the keywords and replace the translation according to your needs: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/localized-intellisense
I hope this information helps.
I am migrating Spreadsheet gear of my application from 6.0.3.190 to
7.4.1.104.I am getting my issues with Color property.Can any one help me in this.Now I am using using Color = System.Drawing.Color; and also ToSGColor().This became very hectic to do in all places where ever we use color.I expect we should have some shortcut to do this.Can any one suggest me How can i get all functionalities with few changes only.I am also getting exceptions to c onvert IColorFormat.LineColor to system.drawing.Color.
Note the "Breaking Changes" page in the SpreadsheetGear 2012 documentation, which lists this particular change:
In order to support WPF and Silverlight, the core API has been
separated from the GDI+ and Windows Forms APIs and therefore uses the
new SpreadsheetGear.Color type rather than
SpreadsheetGear.Drawing.Color. SpreadsheetGear.Drawing.Color has been
moved to SpreadsheetGear2012.Drawing.dll. See
SpreadsheetGear.Drawing.Color for an example which uses the implicit
and static converters to convert between SpreadsheetGear.Color,
SpreadsheetGear.Drawing.Color and System.Drawing.Color.
SpreadsheetGear.Colors and SpreadsheetGear.SystemColors provide
helpful predefined colors to replace the use of predefined colors in
System.Drawing.Color.
So you'll need to ensure than any place where you were previously using System.Drawing colors now use SpreadsheetGear.Drawing colors, including API like IColorFormat.LineColor.
There aren't really any "migration" tools to automatically convert such instances to the new API. So you'll need to resolve these errors for each code file. Doing a Find/Replace keyword search for "System.Drawing" and "SpreadsheetGear.Drawing" could possibly speed up the process, though this would depend on what using statements you have added to each code file.
I heard that scout eclipse can create table page - AbstractPageWithTable out of database table properties, without manually adding columns for it.
Is this true, and if it is is somebody knows how to do it?
Dynamic UI Components:
I am not sure I understand your question correctly. Can I rephrase it like this:
How can I add a column dynamically (without having to define them as inner class)?
Here some pointers on the Scout Forum:
Is possible to create a dynamic PageView and Form ?
How to create UI fields at runtime?
...
My personal opinion is that the scout philosophy is to have a declarative UI defined with inner classes. I am not sure I would recommend someone to use this dynamic approach...
Scaffoling for Eclipse Scout:
From your comment, I now understand your question like this:
Given an existing database, is it possible to generate some elements of the application like TablePages?
I am afraid there is no open-source tool doing this for the moment. In our company, we have some developers, having a series of scripts to do something like what you are describing.
There is a project called SAML (Scout Application Modeling Language) where the user interface is described with a DSL and the Scout entities are generated. This is more a prototype that was built for the Kepler version of scout (3.9). For the moment there is no active development on it.
I have also started some builder where you do something like:
SimpleApplicationBuilder app = SimpleApplicationBuilder.create("myapp", "simple.myapp", "");
IScoutFormBuilder formBuilder = ScoutBuilders.form("MyFirstForm", "simple.myapp.client.ui.forms", "simple.myapp.shared.services")
.propTitle(app.nlsKey("MyFormTitle"))
.propSubTitle(app.nlsKey("MyFormSubTitle"))
.propAskIfNeedSave(false)
.propDisplayHint(DisplayHint.DISPLAY_HINT_VIEW)
.addField(ScoutBuilders.groupBox("ContentGroupBox")
.propBorderVisible(false)
.addField(ScoutBuilders.stringField("MyStringField")
.propLabel(app.nlsKey("MyStringLabel"))
)
.addField(ScoutBuilders.tableField("MyTableField")
.propTableStatusVisible(true)
.addTable(ScoutBuilders.table("MyTable")
.propAutoResizeColumns(true)
.addColumn(ScoutBuilders.integerColumn("IdComlum")
.propDisplayable(false)
)
.addColumn(ScoutBuilders.stringColumn("NameComlum")
.propHeaderText(app.nlsKey("Name"))
)
.addColumn(ScoutBuilders.integerColumn("AgeComlum")
.propHeaderText(app.nlsKey("Age"))
)
)
)
);
app.addForm(formBuilder);
The idea is to have a Java model of the application source code. It should allows to be able to do modifications or to add new entities and then to generate or modify the code. My tool is not open source for the moment (it is not finished yet and I do not have enough time to work on it).
I definitively think that scaffolding for Eclipse Scout would be great. I have published a master thesis proposal to work with a student on this topic. I hope we will be able to move forward.
Here some pointers in the Eclipse Scout forum:
Scout usage from command line
Form Generator based on DB Table layout
Let me know if you are interested in those topics.
I would like to create a table that looks/behaves like the one to manage fields when editing content types.
How is this one named? Is this form API?
If you're looking for the drag and drop sorting behavior, then you should look at the documentation for drupal_add_tabledrag.
And perhaps this tutorial might help: http://aswapathy.com/d78tu/tabledrag/theme_the_form_doc
I would implement it using Forms API together with a table.
If you are new to forms API, this step by step introduction is really good:

I'm Currently working on a scene and i cant seem to find infomation as to how to make a setting for my scen. Its basically a street with buildings on either sides. about 500m long.
I want to put it into a city "enviroment" for animation. Also there will be camera movements so i dont think simply adding an image as a background will work. what i want to know is, Is there a a way to achieve what i want without actually building a small city?
any help or a pointer in the right direction would be great.
thanks in advance
A cubemap might work. http://wiki.polycount.com/CubeMap
There are applications which will generate a city for you, based on criteria you enter. You can enter the building types, sizes etc. I've used one called City Engine - I used the built in wizards to create this but you can create one from scratch even specifying the road layouts: Youtube Video
3ds max has predefined models within it's system,
For example a tree:
This tutorial is great:
