PageLayout - Visual Basic .NET

Joseph Bittman MVP MCSD

December 18, 2005

I'm trying out VS 05 Std, and cannot find the PageLayout feature of
asp.net web forms. I have to use the spacebar & tab to get my controls to
where I want them on the form. :( Isn't there a way to get the GridView
back!?!?!?!???? This is driving me crazy, and would instantly keep me from
upgrading.

Hi,

Go to the tools menu and select options -> HTML designer -> CSS
Positioning. Make sure the change positioning to the following for controls
added etc.. is checked and set the combobox to absolutely positioned.

Thank you! I couldn't find that documented anywhere. Do you happen to know
how to actually get a dotted grid shown so you can have a visual grid as
well?

Also, I don't know whether this is a bug... When I went to Tools - Options,
only 4 or 5 categories were shown not including HTML Designer. I then found
under the Layout menu the Positioning category and I clicked on another sub
item. This pulled up the Options dialog again, but it showed about 9
categories of settings including the HTML Layout. I would have thought that
the Tools - Options would have done this to begin with.

Anyway, thanks again!!!

Printing Labels Fast on Elton printer

by: qumpus | last post by:

My program right now generates USPS style shipping label using System.Drawing.Graphics. It works fine except that the printer prints really slowly. I want to make my program take advantage of true type fonts. So I assume it's possible to send Font Type and the text to the printer, and the printer should digest and print faster. Still, barcode info needs to be sent as an image. When I print fifty copies of the same label it prints really...

controls in grid layout render incorrectly in firefox

by: Dave | last post by:

I am designing a web page using VS2003 ASP.NET. The page contains various DIVs (panels), one of which is in grid layout. The controls in this DIV render correctly in IE, but when using Firefox they are incorrectly positioned. VS sets the positioning of the controls to absolute, and because the DIV is to the right of another DIV Firefox (correctly, I suspect) positions the controls absolutely, which means they are too far to the left, while...

Problem With Comparison Operator <=> in G++

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

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,...
