WindowState | Library to help save window state of WinForms windows | Game Engine library

I am new in WPF, I'm just playing around with this custom title bar.

This is the layout in the designer.

Here is the XML layout.

This is rather a difficult situation to explain. I have a Windows Forms application that uses a notification icon with a context menu. The app can be configured to start with no form shown or the form can be closed by the user leaving just the notify icon present. Selecting the "Show" option from the context menu strip of the notification icon will create (if closed)/restore(if minimized) the main form. Now this all works fine as the events generated from the menu are running on the STA thread. The problem is the single instance implementation. A notify icon type application really should only ever be running one instance, otherwise you'd have multiple notify icons in the tray and it'd be a huge mess. This is accomplished using a named EventWaitHandle and also includes detection of an attempt to run a second instance, when this happens it signals the main running instance which then restores/creates the main form thus:

There are two (it would seem) idiomatic ways to minimize a WPF window in code:

• window.WindowState = window.WindowState.Minimized
• SystemCommands.MinimizeWindow(window)

The desired behavior is that the windows 11 window minimize animation is seen. The actual behavior is that the window instantly disappears from the screen.

Please note: This is for a window with a custom chrome - therefore triggering the behavior from code seems necessary:

I have a RadgridView along with a button in a Form Window.When the button is clicked , it shows some hidden rows in RadGridView.

I want the hidden rows to be showed when the Form window is maximized. I am trying something like this in Form_Activated method:

I am trying to color the faces of a cube object I have drawn here with opentk. I have registered a method that lets me listen on keyboard key presses to color a face with a specified color. Currently the cube object is drawn with a white color that it is impossible to know the shape of the cube against a black window background. I have checked the official documentation of opengl and they suggest that in order to color a face of a cube, you need to invoke the function gl.color3(float red, float green, float blue) on the instance. The code that to draw the object is here, is it possible to color the face of the object when a keyboard key is pressed. Here is my code

Problem

I am doing a video game environment design research and I happened to start with the basics of OpenGL with OpenTk-The C# variant of OpenGL. I got code to draw a cube object in my GameWindow with OpenTk from this site. I override the method OnLoad for my GameWindow object and I call the method to draw the cube but nothing happens, the code draws the GameWindow and NativeWIndow without any Graphical Object.

Expectations

I expected the code to draw a cube inside the GameWindow Object.

Code Applied

I want to display 🡸 (a WIDE-HEADED LEFTWARDS HEAVY BARB ARROW Symbol) in a PrintDocument. It does not render correctly; it only shows a box. Using Windows Forms with vb.net 4.6; Visual Studio 2017.

I know I have the correct character and font because it displays in a button just fine on the form. Yet in the PrintPreviewDialog it won't render correctly. What do I need to do?

I'm trying to "enhance" my reporting code by adding a loading screen while the Crystal Report is being prepared/loaded. Before I started trying to add the loading screen, all of my reports would come up just fine, but the cursor change just wasn't "enough" of an indication that the application was still working on pulling the report - some of them can take a while - so I wanted to provide a more "obvious" visual cue.

In order to accomplish this, I've put the report creation method calls into a BackgroundWorker that exists in the loading screen itself (I haven't gotten around to learning how to use Async/Await well enough yet to feel comfortable using that instead). The loading screen comes up correctly and everything appears to work as expected until it actually attempts to display the report on screen. At that point, the "Please wait while the document is processing." box comes up (in the CrystalReportViewer control in the form used to display reports), but it just sits there, not even spinning. Eventually, my IDE throws an error about receiving a ContextSwitchDeadlock and I pretty much just have to cancel execution.

Here's my dlgReportLoading "splash screen" with a PictureBox control that contains an animated GIF:

I am working on a WinForms application, I tried to minimize the form to system try while closing and when opening from the system tray I want to directly go to the main app without logging again. The main point is to reduce the login attempts to get into the main app and the app should run in the background until the account holder logs out of the app and sees the login screen.

This is what I am up to
