Hi umesh,

Are you looking for a specific feature that you haven't been able to find in iX Developer? Maybe we can point you to it if you describe what you are looking for.

[Ron L.]

We have some new objects coming with the next version of iX in April such as an improved ListBox, DropDownList, Chart and Scrolling Text. Be sure to check with your sales rep. at that time to make sure you get a copy.

If you are just needed more graphics, I've had some luck with buying graphics from here in the past.

Thanks Mark and Ron http://www.iconshock.com/ was very help full.

I want to add some features like.
* Print Screen and save .bmp file.
* Stylish Message Box with OK Cancel Button.

And I wnat to make a Control for Report generation Same as Beijer E terminal.
Where I will write text and add tags and file path to save report. I need rough idea how to do that if you have any example.

Thanks
Umesh Patil

Hi Umesh,

I would take a look at the samples that come with iX developer. You can find them in the 'samples' tab that comes up when you initially open ix Developer.

Also take a look at the manual.

With iX Developer 2.0 coming out in April, there will be a report generator feature included that should help you out.

Thanks Ron and Mark.

I am using T10A. I wnat to save image of screen following script is not working what should I do.

private void PrintScreen()

{

Bitmap printscreen = new Bitmap(Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Width, Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Height);

Graphics graphics = Graphics.FromImage(printscreen as Image);

graphics.CopyFromScreen(0, 0, 0, 0, printscreen.Size);

printscreen.Save(@"C:\Temp\printscreen.jpg", ImageFormat.Jpeg);

}

Hi umesh,

Windows CE doesn't support those functions. Here is the code that you need to make a button take a picture of the screen. Windows CE also does not use letters for drive names, 'C:\' will not work. Where do you want to put the image once you have taken it?

If you want to save to the FTP directory, you can use this code.

Code: Select all

string path = @"\FlashDrive\Project\Project Files";
				if (Directory.Exists(path) == false) {
					Directory.CreateDirectory(path);
				}				
				path = path + @"\printscreen.jpg";

Here's a sample project for this also.

Thanks a lot it is working fine.

Is it possible to take screen print of screen which is not open.
