Problem in ToolStrip

88 New Member
In C# 2005 (.Net 2.0), while working with a toolstrip, if its TabStop property is set to TRUE and there are two comboboxes and a button in the toolstrip, why doesn't the button get any focus when the focus is moved from one control to another by pressing the TAB Key. This problem doesn't occur when the TabStop property of the toolstrip is FALSE. But I need the TabStop property to be TRUE.

Another problem is while the TabStop property of toolstrip is FALSE, if u try to set focus to one of the comboboxes in toolstrip during the form load event, it's not working. How to solve these 2 problems? Thanks.

It appears to me that the button in a toolstrip is really just a fancy image object(like a picturebox), and for whatever does not accept focus?
Why that changes based on the parent object being a tabstop i don't know

I'm migrating/rewriting one of my VB6 apps to VB2005. In the process, I'm trying to avoid using third party activex controls used in the VB6 project. One of the third party controls in the VB6 app was for menu/toolbars. This control had an option to render the toolbar in an Office 2003 style which is nothing more than a top to bottom gradient. When a new ToolStrip is added to a form, the default appearance of the Toolstrip is that of...

Hi all, I'm using the ToolStrip in .NET 2.0, and I can't seem to find a way to change the size of it. What I want is a toolbar the size of the IE toolbar, preferably with text below images if possible. Can anyone shed any light on how to do this? Thanks, Alex Clark

Hi Toolstrips in a toolstrip panel are aligned in a stack even though added to a first row in a toolstrip panel. i.e. the blocks in the toolstrip should be aligned sequentially in a single row and if the row is overloaded then it should wrap to the next line but iam unable to do so --if i have 4 blocks in the toolstrip it is being arranged one block for each row which should not happened --all

PropertyBinding can be a great way to save user settings, but there is a problem with using PropertyBinding on ToolStrip items. I've found a solution to the problem and am sharing it here since I couldn't find a solution anywhere on the web. To recreate the problem: Add a ToolStrip to a form. Add a TextBox to the ToolStrip.

The ToolStrip on top of my form is to small. I want to increase its height. Simply setting the Height-property doesn't change the height, though. So I tried to place the ToolStrip in a ToolStripPanel, that does react to changes in its Height-property, and by setting the Dock-property of the contained ToolStrip to DockStyle.Fill, I expected the ToolStrip to fill the entire ToolStripPanel. Nope. See the code below, it is ready to run.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
