Sometimes Visual Studio likes to be stubborn and break the toolbox when I've been screwing around with custom controls.... (like the following screenshot) where no matter what you do, you can't drag 'n drop the built-in controls (like a CheckBox or Button).

found out via a old blog post (will edit later to link original post) that you have to delete a couple of files in your localappdata folder :p

so I made a small powershell script that automates it for you and deletes those files on every version of visual studio that is setup under the current account :3

Awesomium 1.7.5.1, WinForms, WebControl obj.ExecuteJavascript

You can use LoadHtml method, but only after document is fully loaded (dont confuse with DocumentReadyState.Ready) It works for me at least: private void WebControl_DocumentReady(object sender, DocumentReadyEventArgs e) { if (e.ReadyState != DocumentReadyState.Loaded) return; }

But as an initialisation, you should use Source property, like you wrote in your third update

GitHub - tland357/Waviate: A sound design application powered by evolution algorithms. Rather than creating sounds from synthesizers, sounds

A sound design application powered by evolution algorithms. Rather than creating sounds from synthesizers, sounds are generated and refined

Waviate is a windows app that uses an evolution algorithm to generate sounds procedurally from user preferences and rules. Rather than designing sounds with knowledge of synthesizers and waveforms, Waviate creates them itself allowing sound designers to "discover" sounds. By creating new outlets for machines to assist in designing art, my hope is that artists can break new ground and develop richer and more complex ideas.

Use latest CSS in Winforms Web Browser Control

I have been utilizing the Winforms Web Browser control (this one) for a feature (yes yes I know Winforms is old as the hills blah blah blah).

Anyway I wanted to add a fixed navigation bar like seen here. However whenever I did this using position:fixed; etc. it would not work.

I thought I was doomed to hack around this by adding another Web Browser control above the main form to use specifically for a naviagation bar. But I did stumble across this post from 2011.

Although this is mainly for the Internet Explorer Web Browser Control in WPF, I tried the “hack” of including a meta tag that overode the default rendering engine used by this control (I believe it IE7) and in doing so managed to get my navigation bar working!!!.

Simply include:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />

at the top inside your head tag and specify the content value. For what its worth I only needed to go upto IE10 support to get the Fixed Navigation bar CSS working.

Hope this helps

Transparent Forms in VB.NET WinForms Applications

Transparent Forms in VB.NET WinForms Applications

Creating transparent irregular shaped forms in a WinForms applications using Visual Basic is not too difficult. Using a photographic background with a transparent color, a programmer can create some really attractive interfaces.
