User interface documentation?

Is there any documentation on what user interface elements dot.net supports.
I'm not interested in any implementation details, only what controls there
are and what they can do regarding a user interface. For instance the Data
Grid, what does it allow me to do regarding selecting rows, can I navigate
with the cursor keys or the page/up/down keys, can I highlight a row with a
different color background. Can command buttons appear/disappear when rows
are selected, etc. etc. So far all the books I've read concentrate on how to
load these controls interact with data not how these contriols work in a user
interface. Thanks.

Hello mscertified,

See there http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...orwinforms.asp

But take into account that each control is extendable, your can create your
own control with any functionality

mdot.net supports. I'm not interested in any implementation details,
monly what controls there are and what they can do regarding a user
minterface. For instance the Data Grid, what does it allow me to do
mregarding selecting rows, can I navigate with the cursor keys or the
mpage/up/down keys, can I highlight a row with a different color
mbackground. Can command buttons appear/disappear when rows are
mselected, etc. etc. So far all the books I've read concentrate on how
mto load these controls interact with data not how these contriols
mwork in a user interface. Thanks.

After using numeric for almost ten years, I decided to attempt to switch a large codebase (python and C++) to using numpy. Here's are some comments about how that went. - The code to automatically switch python stuff over just kind of works. But it was a 90% solution, I could do the rest by hand. Of course, the problem is that then the code is still using the old numeric API, so it's not a long term solution. Unfortunately, to switch to...

Overview: 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,...
