Controlling properties at real-time in Visual Basic 2015

Controlling properties at real-time in Visual Basic 2015

Hello Amanda!

This program is an easy task and I am sure that you can definitely do this without sweat. You just need a few controls to make this simple program work. Open your VB version.

1.  1 Form

2.  1 HScrollbar control

3.  2 shapes (I used oval and rectangle) = name property must be set to “OS1” and “RS1”. OS will be used by oval and RS will be used by rectangle.

Here’s how your code will look like.

Public Class Form1

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

    End Sub

    Private Sub HScrollBar1_Scroll(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.ScrollEventArgs) Handles HScrollBar1.Scroll

        OS1.BorderWidth = HScrollBar1.Value

        RS1.BorderWidth = HScrollBar1.Value

    End Sub

End Class

Notice that both lines 5 and 6 the width of each shape is only set to become equal for the scroll bar value. Thus, moving the scroll bar from left to right it will change the border width of the shapes at the same time.
