Are you talking about a _cursor_ (mouse pointer)
*or*
the _carat_ (text insertion point)???
Your post isn't clear as to what you are really referring to.
Yeah, you must be talking about the caret. The NumericUpDown is a composite
control made up of some smaller controls (actually it paints itself, and is
really only
made up of the one text-box, plus the custom drawing of the up-down arrows). The
act of turning off the caret would be equivalent to turning off the TextBox
control's
caret.
I use the thing all the time, and I don't even notice the caret. You must be
heavily
against the blinking ;-) To answer shortly though, there is no way to turn the
caret
off within managed code. There is probably a decent Win32 API, but then getting
the TextBox is going to be an issue.

ty Justin. For me the blinking is akin to water dripping in a leaky
faucet... It's making me crazy... :D

Sorry, my bad. I assumed that calling it a text cursor as opposed to a mouse
cursor would be clear...
Anyway, I'm referring to the _carat_...

Have you looked at the ReadOnly property? If you set it to true, the
value can be changed only with the up/down buttons, not by typing text
in the control. Not sure if the text cursor goes away, though...

Yes, I tried ReadOnly. The cursor doesn't go away. But, thanks for the
suggestion...

Hello C# gurus,
I have a question about finding cursor position in NumericUpDown control. On
my form I have a numericUpDown control with 2 decimal places. I want to
increment value in the numeric box by 1 if my cursor is in front of the
decimal point. If the cursor is after the decimal point, I want to increment
the value by 0.1. How do I accomplish this? Is there a way to find out the
cusror position in the control relative to decimal...

I'm using a number of NumericUpDown controls on my form, which controls
printer settings such as number of pages.
However I want to override one of the default behaviours of the control,
namely when it is tabbed into (selected), I want the number that is displayed
in it to become selected, so the user can just type straight over it.
For this I'm using the event handler:

Hi
In the NumericUpDown control I have to detect that Tab was pressed so I have inherited the NumericUpDown and overroden the PreProcessMessage function. In the DateTimePicker (for example) this works fine but not in the NumericUpDown. It seams that the debugger does not access the PreProcessMessage function. Is this a bug in the NumericUpDown control? Is there an other way to detect that the Tab was pressed in the control

Hey all, I have a NumericUpDown control on a Panel or potentially a
Form that have AutoScroll enabled.
When the NumericUpDown is active I would like the Form/Panel/whatever
not to scroll when I scroll the value in the NumericUpDown.
I can add an additional handler to the MouseWheel event on the
NumericUpDown, but how do I stop the Form/Panel/Whatever from scrolling
when the value is changing in the NumericUpDown?

Hi all,
I encountered a problem with NumericUpDown yesterday and managed to

I have a Windows Application with only one Form, which contains only one
NumericUpDown control and nothing else.
This is the only code I wrote: (everything else was done with the
designer of Visual Studio).

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
