I'm trying to use a Form's BackgroundImage to display the base image that I'm placing controls on top of. To make the form scroll to the bounds of the image, I set the AutoScrollMinSi ze. This works great, except that when I scroll, the image gets all chopped up and doesn't automatically refresh when scrolling is done.
Is there a way to prevent this problem so that it scrolls smoothly?

Actually, I was displaying my image on the Form itself, and Refresh will only reset the image back to 0, 0, no matter how far over I've scrolled. In other words, I guess I can't use Form.Background Image if I want to be able to use the scroll bars to show parts of the image that are off the screen.
So, now I'm using a PictureBox, which I had done before. The problem with that is that any controls that I place on top of the PictureBox that I want to be transparent won't be. This is because the transparent part of the control will see through the PictureBox and show what is on the Form itself. So, if you have a Form with a white background color with a PictureBox on top of it with Red Image and you place your transparent control on top of the PictureBox, the transaparent part of the control will show as white. I want it to show the image in the picture box, not the background of the Form.
Does that make sense?

I have a rudimentary gui with a class that extends JPanel, which sets its
content to a jpg image using:
if (im != null) { g.drawImage(im,0,0,null); }
in the paint() method. However, when I create a JScrollPane that uses this
JPanel extension as its scrollable client, and call a validate, the
scrollbars get visuall overwritten with the jpg image.
Has anyone encountered this error before and knows how to fix it?

Hi,
Is it possible to disble horizontal scrolling using CSS? I want to try
and use two backgrounds, one tiling vertically and part of the body
background, which will not force scrolling, but one that will be part
of a table stretching of to the right, which will force unwanted
horizontal scrolling. How is this written in the stylesheet? Cheers

Hi,
I am working on a project where I have to make a form list static,
i.e. put in links so that users can choose a local file. As it stands,
it's looking for a php file. Here's an example of the body code:

onchange="document.reqForm.submit()" tabindex="4">
<option value="0" SELECTED>-- Select a

Is there any way I can send a vertical value to a form's scroll position?
I have a full-screen form that, at launch, contains an empty tab sheet.
At run time, the user can dynamically append a rich textbox to the tab

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