Bug explanation

I create dynamic menu items for a MaterialContextMenuStrip with the following code:

contextMenu = new MaterialContextMenuStrip();
contextMenu.Opening += contextMenu_Opening;
int index = 0;

foreach (string option in ContextMenuOptions)
{
    ToolStripMenuItem tsi = (ToolStripMenuItem)contextMenu.Items.Add(option);
    img = new Bitmap(ContextMenuBitmaps[index++]);
    tsi.Image = img;
    tsi.ShortcutKeys = Keys.Control | Keys.C;      // Testing             
}

The shortcut key is added but is displayed at the beginning of the menu item thus overlaying the menu text. Please see the below image.

Hey i love your work, but i hope that you will make your notifications sizeable.
Especially the ForeverNotification, my Text is always 5-10 chars to long, German is a rought language u know :)

Also there is missing the Text.Length Property, which I find very important, because a constantly pre-marked text looks very ugly.
I prefer to pretend all TextBoxes are not selected and the cursor always docks at the end of the TextBox.

Unfortunately this doesn't work with yours yet.

btw. dont know if this is important but iam .Net Developer

Bug explanation

This happens when I open a form and sometimes the combo box items are all highlighted instead of the one that is being selected / hovered on. I've noticed this can also occur when I load my child form via keyboard shortcut.

Version

3.7.9.1

When running with administrator privileges, the window cannot be displayed after being minimized

I am using some checkboxes from the ReaLTaiizor.Controls.Checkbox control on a C# Winforms project and changing the Checked property value from code (during Form Load event) does not trigger the CheckChanged event (which works fine while ticking the checkbox in the UI). I validated that this doesnt even work while changing the value from a manually clicked button either and that a regular Winform Checkbox does indeed make it work

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1 - Add a ReaLTaiizor.Controls.Checkbox set to Checked = false in a form
2 - Add a message box or whatever code to the checkbox's CheckedChanged event
3 - Set it to Checked = true in the Form's Load event
4 - Execute

Expected
The code from the CheckChanged event is executed

Actual
The checkbox checked state is changed but the code does not execute

Bug explanation

I'd like to set a ParrotButton, etc. as the form's 'AcceptButton'. But, since it does not support the IButtonControl interface, it does not appear in the 'AcceptButton' drop-down on the Form's properties. Setting 'AcceptButton' through the code will not work because it cannot be cast to 'IButtonControl'.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I think it will be better if adding a dotted rectangle when the control is in active state.

Describe the solution you'd like

1. Add a _focusState field.
2. Change _focusState in GotFocus and LostFocus event handler.
3. In OnPaint event handler,invoking ControlPaint.DrawFocusRectangle method to draw a rectangle.We can use Style (dark or light) property to determine the forecolor and backcolor of focusing rectangle.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Describe the bug
HopeNumeric allows for a number to be typed in. At least, it's possible to click the number and use a keyboard to type a number.
HOWEVER - this number doesn't remain, it gets replaced by the last known number unless I specifically press Enter on my keyboard (Which then makes the window "not allowed" ding as if to imply you can't do that

To Reproduce

• Add HopeNumeric control
• Click the field and enter a number
• Click/navigate off the control
• Number reverts back to last known number either set by the +/- or set in the ValueNumber property field

Expected behavior
it should simply accept and remain on the number manually typed it. There's no point in having the field allow keyboard input if it won't keep the number typed in

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 11
• Browser: Vivaldi
• Visual Studio 2022
• C# .NET Windows Forms Application

EDIT
** Other Info **
I realise from looking at the source of the HopeNumeric that it is coded that pressing enter (keycode 13) does 'accept' the number etc but ideally this should happen automatically like the default NumericUpDown control does (and some other custom numeric controls out there)

The Crown Theme that shows on this gif

Hi

Thanks for the controls and I am trying to use in a personal capacity.

I am using a numeric control. I can set the Min and Max values but the Increment value is not present. When I try + or -, the increment is like 5,6,7 etc. Not a steady increment. Is there a way I can achieve increments of 1 or other numbers?

Very good project ! Thank you !
I like the design of "material demo" gif shows , i found when i launch project "ReaLTaiizor.UI", i can see the form. but the form icon show it is a file , not a window form, when i right click the mouse on the form file (such as form17 ) there is no selection "open in the form designer" , thank you ~

Describe the bug
I wrote method A in dll1 that calls method B in dll2. Method B calls PoissonMessageBox.Show() directly.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Call PoissonMessageBox.Show from a dll.

Expected behavior
I would expect the message box to display.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 10

Additional context
method B code follows:

    public static void ReportError(LogType _action, string _title, string _message, Form _parent, 
        MessageBoxButtons _buttons, MessageBoxIcon _icon, object[] _arguments=null)
    {
        int index = 0;

        if (_arguments != null)
        {
            foreach (string arg in _arguments)
            {
                _arguments[index++] = arg.Replace("\r\n", string.Empty);
            }
        }

        _message = WriteLog(_action, _message, _arguments);

        PoisonMessageBox.Show(_parent, _message, _title, _buttons, _icon);
    }

If I substitute a standard MessageBox.Show("error") call, the code does not throw and error.

I've added some controls into Parrot Form and close the design window after saved all changes.

When I open the design window again I see whole controls inside Parrot Form has been disappeared.

Checked the controls on property window and they all are there! I did try those controls to bring to front but it didn't work.

Thank you for a great control library!

I have a question: how to define a color for (ColorStyle)15 in poisonStyleManager?

Idk if i am missing something...but i am unable to change the color of crown controls...they are only of dark theme/ dark color.

Edit : I just found Theme interface in source...just need to use it....i will try and update again.
Edit : Idk man, unable to figure out how to use theme, unable to find methods or property to set it...need help.

Also, when I delete controls (tried with tab controls for now), visual studio stop working...the window itself is working/responding, but the cursor gets stuck at the loading type and nothing is clickable.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It would be possible to add to the BigTextBox a field for a placeholder or hint. I'm trying to do it by controlling the Enter and the Leave but managing the language change is complicated, something like the native Windows Forms TextBox. Thank you.

textUsername.PlaceHolder = "User"

How to change the font in Material Theme ?

Hello, thank you very much for this library, although I still have one problem, I cannot change the font size of the buttons, even changing it in the properties nothing happens, I found that your button has only 3 types, but how can I change font size?

Bug explanation

Prior to version 3.7.8.7, I was able to edit tab pages on a MetroTabControl. After 3.7.8.7, I am no longer able to edit all pages of the tab control. For example, I have a MetroTabControl that contains two pages. I can click on the title of the first page but not the second. Clicking on the second page puts me into the code.

This bug can be reproduced with the following steps:

• Drag a new MetroTabControl from the designer.
• Add the first tab page.
• Now, try to add a second tab page.
• An error message is thrown and the second page is disabled.

The error looks like this:

Bug explanation

The MetrolControlBox control ignores the 'MaximizeBox' and 'MinimizeBox' switches in the form designer. Setting the values to 'false' does not make the Maizmize and Minize boxes hide as it does in a standard Windows Form control. I also tried setting the values in the code and this did not work. Additionally, there doesn't appear to be a way to tell what button has been clicked.

I should have an option to change the color.

How am i supposed to add some pictures to use them like icons?

It can enable support for NET Framework 4.7.2?

Bug explanation

Currently all header and content values are drawn left-aligned, even when setting textalign-right on the columns.
I think it would be great to have the headers and content drawn with the same alignment, as specified by the headers.
It's is an detail, but an important one when the data contains numbers - and would add great value to the listview.
Look like the the the code is in methods OnDrawColumnHeader + OnDrawItem in MaterialListView.cs

I have just started looking into the Material component palette and it looks very promising. Great work! I would like to contribute with some programming, so next time I will make an pull request.

Bug explanation

I am experiencing an issue with window resizing with the Metro style. When the app is running and I move the window to another monitor, and release it, the window can no longer be moved and anywhere you mouse over the window the mouse is a resize pointer of some kind (depends where on the window the mouse is). I tried with the monitors being the same and different resolutions, same result. I tried the same test using Royal style and Material style, neither of those had an issue.

Not sure if this matters but using VS 2022 and VB.NET.

I'm using the ThunderControlBox but need to disable the min/max buttons so that only the X close button can be used.
The option to enable/disable control box items is present on other controlbox controls you have in the collection, it would be really great if ALL controlbox controls had the same ability to enable/disable the individual buttons

Is it possible to add the solution projects, which, are shown in the "overview" section? Specially the Material and Metro.

Thanks in advance.

There is maximize button on the form but I can't set the BorderStyle to sizable. When I click that button screen flashing multiple times and nothing happening by the way

Any chance to change the ForegroundColor property from private to public so the tabs and the line under them can be customized?

Currently, it is:

which only allows to use the default color Color.FromArgb(65, 177, 225) defined in the ApplyTheme method, and the option is not available in the properties.

I tried myself in a clone of the project and it worked properly, but I'm not sure if it will interfere with something else.

Is it possible to make the material button receive a font family? Or is there a limitation or something like that?

I saw that it is fixed in the code, there is no way to make it dynamic?

How to make buttons support shortcut keys？

I have been using ReaLTaiizor for the last two weeks. But there is a lot of uncertainty in the use of some features and elements. It would be very easy to understand if it was documentation.
At least the following

• How to use the elements,
• installation and use of companions
• installation and use of themes
  and etc...

So far I have had the following problems

• I was able to use only LoftForm and Material Forms (I had problems using the rest),
• When I use FlowLayoutPanel (in dock fill mode) BorderStyle is closed and not visible (only worked on LostForm). Also has some problems.
• AutoSize in Panels, Buttons, and TextBoxes is sometimes very large.

These are becoming incomprehensible, and it would be great if any example demo program with all the elements used was documented or put in place.
At the very least, the demo programs listed in **Overview ** would be easier to understand even if the sources were uploaded.
Thanks...
