The Line shape is one of tools of VisualBasic power pack 1.0 (in vs2010) ,
How can I define a label property and set value to it when I add it to a container control:
My code is below and ( at Design time ) need
public class MyLine:Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.LineShape
{
public Label label ;
public MyLine()
{
}
public MyLine(ShapeContainer container)
: base(container)
{
label = new Label() { Text = "Ali_Sarshogh" };
}
}
///--------- call in master form :
private Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.ShapeContainer shapeContainer1;
//--- in Button1_Click() i want to draw it :
MyLine lineShape1 = new MyLine(shapeContainer1);
lineShape1.Name = "lineShape1";
lineShape1.X1 = 25;
lineShape1.X2 = 160;
lineShape1.Y1 = 18;
lineShape1.Y2 = 17;
this.shapeContainer1.Shapes.Add(lineShape1);
result: The line is drawn on the form but label isn't visible
Give the label a size and location, and add it to the control too. Something like:
public MyLine(ShapeContainer container) : base(container)
{
label = new Label() { Text = "Ali_Sarshogh" };
label.Location = new Point(0, 0);
label.Size = new Size(100, 14);
this.Controls.Add(label);
}
Take a looks at any Designer.cs
file for a form you've created, and you'll see how the IDE does it.
