Re: My multithreaded progress bar/Splash Screen

OK thanks. I do use it in Powershell Studio, but yeah it can be used anywhere so that's fine.

My multithreaded progress bar/Splash Screen

Hello, I've been messing with different ways to create a progress bar to use when the forms take a long time to load. Particularly at launch. I have a nice solution here that solves all my problems, so I figured I'd post it in case anyone else finds it useful. This code uses a runspace to run the fo...

Re: Can't post in forums

Ah, I have a 'shared subscription' because I work for an organization who has bought licenses in bulk. I understand that the system currently doesn't support me.

Re: ProgressBarOverlay forecolor and backcolor trouble

Oh whoops, now it's working...I guess it won't show in the Designer, but it does appear when I run the program. I changed the Theme on my development station and that made things quicker.

ProgressBarOverlay forecolor and backcolor trouble

Howdy. I noticed this issue when I took my powershell .exe to a computer with a different Windows desktop theme, and the overlay text was essentially unreadable. So I went to customize it, and although I can change both properties, neither seem to take effect. I can modify these properties on many o...

floating cmd window when running a packaged .exe

If I create a new project, don't change anything in it, package it into an .exe and run it, it runs, the blank GUI appears, but also a blank cmd window appears behind it.

What is this blank cmd window and how can I stop it from appearing?

Re: running .exe includes floating cmd window

Note that if you are starting an external process like an external CMD or EXE process or a batch file ("bat" or "CMD") you may end up with an orphaned window. Be sure you test code that does nothing but display a blank form. If that has no floating window then it is likely that ...
