Infinite pages generated with e.HasMorePages

I generate several QRCodes and would like to print the barcodes one after another on an A4 size page in Print Preview Control. I also use this control: PrintBar
I calculated, that about 5 QRCodes can be on an A4 format page, so I tried to split with HasMorePages.
Print Preview without HasMorePages: the A4 page with the QRCodes screenshot - the last QRCode should be on the last page.
I added e.HasMorePages and return, but is not working correctly...It counts the pages to infinite and after that crashes.
My code:
BeginPrint
private void printDocument1_BeginPrint(object sender, System.Drawing.Printing.PrintEventArgs e)
{
this.currentItem = 0;
}
PrintPage
private void printDocument1_PrintPage(object sender, System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs e)
{
String fontName = "Arial";
Font fontNormal = new Font(fontName, 12, System.Drawing.FontStyle.Regular);
float itemHeight = fontNormal.GetHeight(e.Graphics);
Brush normalColour = Brushes.Black;
float leftMargin = e.MarginBounds.Left;
float topMargin = e.MarginBounds.Top;
float printWidth = e.MarginBounds.Width;
float printHeight = e.MarginBounds.Height;
float rightMargin = leftMargin + printWidth;
float currentPosition = topMargin;
float numberWidth = 70;
float lineWidth = printWidth - numberWidth;
float lineLeft = leftMargin;
float numberLeft = leftMargin + lineWidth;
int items = 0;
foreach (DataRow dr in dt.Rows)
{
if (!dr[4].Equals(""))
items += Convert.ToInt32(dr[4].ToString());
else
items += 0;
}
noOfItems = items;
foreach (DataRow dr in dt.Rows)
{
Bitmap bt = null;
if (!dr[1].Equals(""))
{
if (!dr[4].Equals(""))
{
int nrcodes = Convert.ToInt32(dr[4].ToString());//in the 4th row the value means how many QRCodes should be generated
for (int i = 0; i < nrcodes; i++)
{
if (i % 5 != 0)
{
bt = GenerateQRCODE(dr[1].ToString());//dr[1] QRCode value
e.Graphics.DrawImage(bt, leftMargin, currentPosition, 200, 200);
e.Graphics.DrawString(dr[1].ToString(), fontNormal, normalColour, leftMargin + 40, currentPosition + 180); //dr[1] - text under QR Code
}
else
{
e.HasMorePages = true;
return;
}
currentPosition += 200;
}
}
}
}
// e.HasMorePages = true;
}

Yes, I need to print the same QR Code as many times as in the dr[4] column value. After that the next QR Code the same way.
In this case you need to keep track of the current DataRow and n copy to not repeat the same code for the same row and copy when you set e.HasMorePages = true;. For the copies, request a new page if the bottom of the current output block exceeds the e.MarginBounds.Bottom. To request a new page for each row, uncomment the last lines of the following example.
// +
using System.Drawing.Printing;
// ...
private int curRow = 0;
private int curCopy = 0;
// Or from where you call `.Print();`
// Button.Click event for example.
private void printDocument1_BeginPrint(object sender, PrintEventArgs e)
{
curRow = 0;
curCopy = 0;
}
private void printDocument1_PrintPage(object sender, PrintPageEventArgs e)
{
var curY = e.MarginBounds.Y;
using (var fontNormal = new Font("Arial", 12))
using (var sf = new StringFormat())
{
sf.Alignment = sf.LineAlignment = StringAlignment.Center;
int itemHeight = (int)fontNormal.GetHeight(e.Graphics) + 10;
for (int row = curRow; row < dt.Rows.Count; row++)
{
DataRow dr = dt.Rows[row];
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(dr.Field<string>(1)) &&
int.TryParse(dr.Field<string>(4)?.ToString(), out int copies))
{
for (int i = curCopy; i < copies; i++)
{
var imgRect = new Rectangle(e.MarginBounds.X, curY, 200, 200);
var labelRect = new Rectangle(
imgRect.X,
imgRect.Bottom,
imgRect.Width,
itemHeight);
if (curY + imgRect.Height + labelRect.Height >= e.MarginBounds.Bottom)
{
curCopy = i;
e.HasMorePages = true;
return;
}
using (var qrImage = GenerateQRCODE(dr[1].ToString()))
e.Graphics.DrawImage(qrImage, imgRect);
e.Graphics.DrawString(dr[1].ToString(),
fontNormal, Brushes.Black,
labelRect, sf);
curY = labelRect.Bottom + 30;
}
}
curRow = row + 1;
curCopy = 0;
// Uncomment if you want to start a new
// page for each row.
//if (row < dt.Rows.Count - 1)
//{
// e.HasMorePages = true;
// break;
//}
}

Picturebox duplicating value

I am working on a little program that starts taking pictures in the moment you click on a button. Also it can be ended earlier clicking another button.
The little bug that I am having is that I use a timer to process each time you go throw it since you hit the start button in a 1000ms interval, the problem comes when the first process finishes, the next process you start will duplicate the value of a progressbar x2 forever until you close the app.

Getting values from mouse hover on a class object C#

I've a txt file with a 360 numbers, I must read all of these and draw a kind of Disc made of FillPie eachone colored in scale of grey due to the value of the list. Until here everything is quite simple.I made a class with the data(value in the txt and degree) of one single fillpie with a Paint method that draw it of the correct color.
this is the code of the class:
class DatoDisco
{
int valoreSpicchio;
int gradi;
public DatoDisco(int valoreTastatore, int gradiLettura)
{
valoreSpicchio = valoreTastatore;
gradi = gradiLettura;
}
public void Clear()
{
valoreSpicchio = 0;
gradi = 0;
}
private int ScalaGrigi()
{
int grigio = 0;
if (valoreSpicchio <= 0)
{
grigio = 125 + (valoreSpicchio / 10);
if (grigio < 0)
grigio = 0;
}
if (valoreSpicchio > 0)
{
grigio = 125 + (valoreSpicchio / 10);
if (grigio > 230)
grigio = 230;
}
return grigio;
}
public void Paint (Graphics grafica)
{
try
{
Brush penna = new SolidBrush(Color.FromArgb(255, ScalaGrigi(), ScalaGrigi(), ScalaGrigi()));
grafica.FillPie(penna, 0, 0, 400, 400, gradi, 1.0f);
}

Now I need that when i go with the mouse over the drawn disc, a tooltip show me the data of the fillPie(degree and value of txt) but i can't figure out how.
Anyone can help me?
this is an image of the disc

Eventually it looks as if all you want is a function to get the angle between the mouse position and the center of the disc..
Here is a function to calculate an angle given two points:
double AngleFromPoints(Point pt1, Point pt2)
{
Point P = new Point(pt1.X - pt2.X, pt1.Y - pt2.Y);
double alpha = 0d;
if (P.Y == 0) alpha = P.X > 0 ? 0d : 180d;
else
{
double f = 1d * P.X / (Math.Sqrt(P.X * P.X + P.Y * P.Y));
alpha = Math.Acos(f) * 180d / Math.PI;
if (P.Y > 0) alpha = 360d - alpha;
}
return alpha;
}

fitting rich text box's text into print page c#

I am new in C# and I am trying to print richTextBox's text into a page with size 58x297 but the text always starts from the middle of the page. I checked the printer properties but I couldn't find anything wrong. My aim is to print the text of my rich text box at the very left and top point of the page. I believe the problem is the initial spacing because of the size of my page that is 58x297 spacing is normal for an A4 page but not for mine.

It would definitely be great if you have any ideas about. Thanks a lot ...

read items from listbox

I have a listbox with 1 or more textfiles, which im going to print as commands.
but I dont know how to make the streamreader read from listbox ?
so far I got this.:
public void OutputBtn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
PrintDocument PrintD = new PrintDocument();
PrintD.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(this.PrintDocument_PrintPage);
StreamReader SR = new StreamReader("C:\\myfile.txt");
PrintD.Print();
}
is there enyway I can change "C:\myfile.txt" or do I have to use "foreach" ?

Do you want something like this? I don't fully understand the question
string[] fileEntries = Directory.GetFiles("C:\\temp\\").Where(p =>
p.EndsWith(".txt")).ToArray<string>();
foreach (string fileName in fileEntries)
{
lb.Items.Add(new ListItem(fileName, fileName);
}
Ok so you have the listbox filled with filenames?
private StreamReader sr;
public void OutputBtn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
foreach(var li in lb.Items)
{
PrintDocument PrintD = new PrintDocument();
PrintD.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(this.PrintDocument_PrintPage);
sr = new StreamReader(li.ToString());
PrintD.Print();
}
}
private void PrintDocument_PrintPage(object sender, PrintPageEventArgs ev)
{
float linesPerPage = 0;
float yPos = 0;
int count = 0;
float leftMargin = ev.MarginBounds.Left;
float topMargin = ev.MarginBounds.Top;
String line = null;
// Calculate the number of lines per page.
linesPerPage = ev.MarginBounds.Height /
printFont.GetHeight(ev.Graphics) ;
// Iterate over the file, printing each line.
while (count < linesPerPage && ((line = sr.ReadLine()) != null))
{
yPos = topMargin + (count * printFont.GetHeight(ev.Graphics));
ev.Graphics.DrawString (line, printFont, Brushes.Black,
leftMargin, yPos, new StringFormat());
count++;
}
// If more lines exist, print another page.
if (line != null)
ev.HasMorePages = true;
else
ev.HasMorePages = false;
}
