The program has a panel which holds a text box and the panel has two buttons on each side.
Each button acts as a 'next' (>>) and 'previous' (<<) navigation. I want to be able to navigate to the next panel by clicking '>>' this will clear the text box. Then when I click '<<' I want to go back to the previous panel with the text box containing the data previously added. However I want to do this without having to create two panels on top of each other and setting the visibility to true or false (which I am able to do). I want to achieve this by using only the one panel so the process can be done an infinite number of times. I hope this is clear to understand if you require more information please let me know.
Here is an image of my interface to clarify things:

since you have the page number, why not just create a list (or use a dictionary with the page number as a key), then in the button handler for >> and << collect the text for the current page (and put it in the list or dictionary) and replace it with the text for the previous page (from the list or dictionary).
code could look something like this:
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
Dictionary<Decimal, String> TextInfo;
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
TextInfo= new Dictionary<Decimal, String>();
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
numPage.Value = 1;
}
private void bnForward_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (TextInfo.ContainsKey(numPage.Value))
{
TextInfo[numPage.Value] = textBox1.Text;
}
else
{
TextInfo.Add(numPage.Value, textBox1.Text);
}
numPage.Value++;
if (TextInfo.ContainsKey(numPage.Value))
{
textBox1.Text = TextInfo[numPage.Value];
}
else
{
textBox1.Text = "";
}
}
private void bnBack_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (numPage.Value == 1)
return;
if (TextInfo.ContainsKey(numPage.Value))
{
TextInfo[numPage.Value] = textBox1.Text;
}
else
{
TextInfo.Add(numPage.Value, textBox1.Text);
}
numPage.Value--;
if (TextInfo.ContainsKey(numPage.Value))
{
textBox1.Text = TextInfo[numPage.Value];
}
else
{
textBox1.Text = "";
}
}
private void dataGridView1_CellClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
}
}

Im trying to develop a form for an imaginary pet clinic in Visual Studio using C# and it consists of check boxes and a label. The checkboxes represent a service the clinic performs and when checked the price of the service is supposed to be displayed in the label, whenever any other boxes are checked theyre supposed to add to the price and when unchecked take away from the price. I am stuck on how i get the check boxes to have a value to display to the label
for example: the vaccinations checkbox (chkVaccinations) is supposed to cost 35 dollars
How do i get the check box to have a value of 35 and when checked to add to the label value which is zero?
private void chkVaccinations_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) {
if (chkVaccinations.Checked)
{
}
else
{
}
private void lblTotalprice_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
Tbh your question lacks alot of information to be able to help you, but here is an idea of a solution following your example assuming this is codebehind. If you want a full MVVM solution I can update the answer for that.
EDIT: Made some changed to adapt the answer to your latest request in the comments
private double TotalPrice { get; set; }
private void ComputeTotalPrice(double increment)
{
TotalPrice += increment;
}
private void chkVaccinations_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (chkVaccinations.Checked)
{
ComputeTotalPrice(priceAssociatedWithThisCheckBox);
}
else
{
ComputeTotalPrice(-priceAssociatedWithThisCheckBox);
}
UpdateLabel();
}
private void UpdateLabel()
{
If you want to show $ with 2 decimals
string formattedPrice = string.Format("{0:0.00}", TotalPrice).Replace(".00","");
lblTotalprice.Text= $"{formattedPrice}$";
}

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
int ranNum;
Random ranNumGen;
string[] words;
const int post = 20;
public Form1()
{
words = new string[post];
ranNumGen = new Random();
words = File.ReadAllLines(#"C:\Users\User\Desktop\prog\c\c\text.txt");
}
//Start new game
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
/*here what i want is that when button1 is pressed the game would start */
}
private void label1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
/* here in label 1 what i want is random word from a text file to be displayed in a manner that it could be guessed*/
}
private void button2_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
/* here this is a "submit" button, a word in a text box is submitted and compared to random word from the text file */
}
private void textBox1_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
/* in this text box the user enters a word, and the word has to match the random word from the text file*/
}
}
}
What i want is to create a "guess the word game"
the user types in a word in a text box, and when submit button is pressed
the word submitted will be compared to the random word from a text file, if both words match the game is won. tks
What do you want to do in those handlers ?
EDIT So you want to get a random word from a file and want to display in a label ?
TO do this you can use:
var word = File.ReadAllLines(#"Location");
answer = word[new Random().Next(word.Length)];

Set a printer for app using a Dialog [closed]

My application prints without showing the PrintDialog (and it need to do so) but I'd like to be able to set to which printer it should print so I added an appsetting in the app.config where it stores the printer name. what I want is a dialog where it shows all printer and the user should be able to choose a printer and it will save in the app.config (I could actually do it from the PrintDialog and get the chosen printer but the button says Print and I don't want to confuse the User...)
Thanks
edit
#methodMan Asked for code so I added My code
System.Windows.Forms.PrintDialog ps = new System.Windows.Forms.PrintDialog();
//set the selected printer in the dialog to the current printer
ps.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = MyApp.Properties.Settings.Default.ContinuesLabelPrinter;
var result = ps.ShowDialog();
if(result == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK)
{
MyApp.Properties.Settings.Default.ContinuesLabelPrinter = ps.PrinterSettings.PrinterName;
}
OK here is something that will work for you I think...Create a windows Form with a listbox and two buttons.
public partial class Form2 : Form
{
public Form2()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void Form2_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
foreach (string printer in System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters)
{
listBox1.Items.Add(printer);
}
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.Close();
}
private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.DialogResult = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK;
}
}
In your code do this:
Form2 form2 = new Form2();
if(form2.Show() == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK)
{
MyApp.Properties.Settings.Default.ContinuesLabelPrinter = form2.listBox1.SelectedItem.ToString();
}
form2.Dispose(); // <-- this might not be necessary
You will need to make the listBox1 public for this to work.

How to prevent data duplication in a datagridview [closed]

private void moviesGridView_CellContentClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
MovieDetailsForm form = new MovieDetailsForm(MovieDetailsForm.MovieViewMode.Read);
if (e.ColumnIndex==5)
{
form.ShowDialog();
}
}
I am trying to view the details of a movie when I press the view details button in the datagridview but for some reason I can't get it to work.
The place of the buttons in the datagridview is 5.
I'd show a ss but unfortunately I cant, yet.
The place of the buttons in the datagridview is 5
It means that the column is the fifth column?
If yes, don't forget that index in .Net are generally zero-based index. So it would be:
if (e.ColumnIndex==4)
Also, good remark from KyleMit, don't create an instance of MovieDetailsForm if you don't use it:
if (e.ColumnIndex==4)
{
MovieDetailsForm form = new MovieDetailsForm(MovieDetailsForm.MovieViewMode.Read);
form.ShowDialog();
}
Just to summarize what others have said and to help out your coding style...
private void moviesGridView_CellContentClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
if (dataGridView1.Columns["colDetailButton"].DisplayIndex == e.ColumnIndex)
{
// my guess is you also need other data, like the movie's IMDB number
string imdbValue = dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells["colImdbValue"].Value.ToString();
using (var form = new MovieDetailsForm(MovieDetailsForm.MovieViewMode.Read))
{
form.ImdbValue = imdbValue;
form.ShowDialog();
}
}
else
{
// Remove this debugging code once you get your code working
Console.WriteLine("ColumnIndex {0} was clicked." e.ColumnIndex);
}
}
See this answer as to how to How to handle click event in Button Column in Datagridview? for a good overview of what to do. So long as you only have a single button, you actually don't have to specify the column index at all, which makes your code less fragile to change. Although, Chris is right, that indexes are zero based so you'd need a ColumnIndex of 4 to get the 5th column. You also don't have to new up your form unless you actually want to show it, so I'd move the declaration into the if statement like this:
private void moviesGridView_CellContentClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
//make sure click not on header and column is type of ButtonColumn
if (e.RowIndex >= 0 && ((DataGridView)sender).Columns[e.ColumnIndex].GetType() == _
typeof(DataGridViewButtonColumn))
{
MovieDetailsForm form = new MovieDetailsForm(MovieDetailsForm.MovieViewMode.Read);
form.ShowDialog();
}
}

I have a button that when pressed is currently outputting messages to a messagebox. Its not very tidy so I created a new form and placed a text box in there. While the 2nd form picks up the data it presents it in another messagebox rather then the textbox like intended. Help is appreciated.
Form2
public Form2(string strTextBox)
{
InitializeComponent();
textBox1.Text = strTextBox;
}
Form 1
private void SaveButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
foreach (string error in errorSet)
{
Form2 frm = new Form2(error);
frm.Show();
}
}
There is some more logic in the button_click if it looks a little strange but its pretty redundant for the problem im having.
Thank you
You should loop over your errors collection and store them in a StringBuilder, then, show the Form2 only one time outside the loop (if there is at least an error).
Do not forget to make your textbox MultiLine=true, give it enough height and a vertical scroll bar.
private void SaveButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
foreach (string error in errorSet)
sb.AppendLine(error);
if(sb.Lenght> 0)
{
Form2 frm = new Form2(sb.ToString());
frm.Show();
}
}
