Study Notes
Timer Control
- The event that occurs when
Timer1.Interval
milliseconds elapses is called the Timer1_Timer event. - To begin a timer in Visual Basic, use the
Timer1.Enabled = True
property.
Control Naming and Properties
- The suggested prefix for naming
Line
controls in Visual Basic is "lin". - The
PictureBox
control can display various file types, including .bmp, .jpg, .gif, .ico, and .wmf. - The
AutoSize
property can be used to resize pictures in anImage
control to fit the control. - The
LoadPicture
function can be used to assign a picture to anImage
control at runtime. - A good programming habit when naming Visual Basic controls is to use meaningful and descriptive names.
- Words in a Visual Basic control name are typically concatenated using underscores ("_").
- The
ForeColor
property affects the color of the text in most visible objects. - The
Text
property contains the string of characters that appears inside a control in Visual Basic, such as a label or textbox.
Control Behavior and Events
- At runtime, controls and forms are visible and enabled by default.
- The
Location
andSize
properties affect the position and size of visible objects in Visual Basic. - Hiding controls in a disabled state is useful for temporarily preventing user interaction or removing visual clutter.
- The
DblClick
event occurs when the user double-clicks on a control using the left mouse button. - The
KeyPress
event in Visual Basic is triggered when a key is pressed while the control has focus. - The
TextChanged
event in Visual Basic is fired whenever the contents of a control change. - The
MouseUp
event signifies that the mouse button has been released after being clicked. - The
MousePointer
property affects the shape of the mouse cursor when hovering over a control.
Form Properties and Behavior
- The primary purpose of a
Form
in a Visual Basic program is to provide the visual interface for the application. - The
Name
property of an object must start with a letter. - The
Caption
property determines the title that appears in the title bar of aForm
or MDI form object. - Setting the
Enabled
property toFalse
for a form or control disables it, preventing user interaction. - The
ControlBox
property indicates whether the form has a control box (for minimizing, maximizing, and closing). - The
Appearance
property specifies whether controls on anMDIForm
orForm
Object have a 3D appearance. - A
MaxButton
property with a value 'False' indicates that the maximize button is disabled. - A
MinButton
property with a value 'True' signifies that the minimize button is enabled. - A
Visible
property with a value 'False' represents that the form is hidden. - A
WindowState
property with a value 'VbMaximized' indicates that the form is maximized.
CommandButton Control
- The purpose of a
CommandButton
control in Visual Basic is to allow users to trigger actions. - A
Moveable
property with a value '0' signifies that the control cannot be moved.
