I would like develop Form on my Windows Application, that is going to notify
the user, just like Microsoft Office 2003 shows that there are new mail
coming. When I use System.Windows. Forms.Form and show it on a different then
main thread on my application, this new form became focused, but I want that
new form at the beginning acts like just stay-on-top notification… also in
this form I would like have controls, that could be focused, when users click
it, like, LinkLabel (so it couldn’t be just ToolTip, or something like this)…
Could I create such a Form, that wont be take focus, when I showing it in
c#... 2 3413
Krzysztof,
In order to do this, I believe you want to set the TopMost property to
true.
Hope this helps.

Thanks,
I've made it...
But it is about different problem...
Imagine e.g. word processing application... you write something, and this
application sometimes shows you new Form with some information... this new
Form always gets focus, when showing, but I don't want this... I want to
develop, that the cursor will stay on the place where it was, before
notification have shown up...so new Form want engage user, he could still
write, because he didn’t lost focus on a main window… new window is only
notification until user clicks it.
So another words I want to show new Window, that isn't focused, until user
activates is...
So, If You know any solution for creating Window, that wont get focused...

My understanding of the containers in the Standard Library is that they can

Stroustrup suggests I can reserve the capacity I will need, and thus avoid

range. I have the sense this is not explicitly specified in the Standard.

First, I thank you Herfried.
I have 3 tabpages in a tabcontrol.
I would like to force the user to stay in the current tabpage until he
doesn't correctly fill some textboxes.
I know how to prevent bad entries but if I click onto another tabpage, I can
leave the current tabpage.
I try to use the select property but it doesn't work.
Any idea ?

Hi,
Is there a way to make windows tooltips stay up longer than the default

as long as the mouse is over the "whatever." The reason: I've been
creating web pages and using various javascripts for the tooltip
popups, and they are fine and very "tweakable." But, I'd prefer to just
use the "title" and/or the "alt" attribute and somehow alter it so that

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,...
