I am looking for collaborators for a Document Management Programme that also has an interface with AutoCAD. I have coded about 80% and debugged about 50%.
I am a retired architect, but I have been writing code ever since Fortran 2.

Greetings.
I am currently working on a little project for fun; I am trying to have a webcam work in C#, probably by using directshow.
But I am so clueless!
I don't understand the code enough to write my own from scratch so I am seeking someone who masters C# to show Me what I need.
This would work best on MSN; ADEPofArts@gmail.com
Thank You for your help.

Posting your email address in a public internet forum is not a great idea... unless you like spam. I'd suggest you remove that, people can still answer you in the forum or email you indirectly through CodeProject.

I was checking out the website and navigation on the left side of the screen is really wonky in IE9. I have to put my cursor almost between the navigation items to get the sub menus to work and it is a really small space. Putting my cursor on the word doesn't work so I can never access your sub menus.
I was interested in looking at your software but I am losing interest quickly because I didn't see any screenshots of what your software looks like. I realize what you are working on is in beta so maybe screenshots are not available but they would have helped me make a decision on whether or not to download/use your application.

I'm aware of the issue with the menu but haven't figured out why it's happening yet. It seems strange that Microsoft's own browser doesn't work with one of their own ASP.NET menu controls when firefox does.
It's even worse because in some versions of IE I've had it work, but it others it doesn't. And in Chrome it works....most of the time.
I've decided to abandon HTML and JavaScript for the next version, as much as possible.
I'm planning a new version with a silverlight interface, which should help get around the traditional browser compatibility issues and make the whole application a lot more efficient and enjoyable to use.
I'm investigating the possibilities of making the navigation and organization more visual and intuitive, using some of the new features silverlight offers.
I've built a new dependency injection system for the new version and I'm in the process of building a new, more scalable data storage system (built on RavenDB instead of db4o).
The new version will use a lot of existing code and concepts but it's being completely re-organised and refactored from the ground up to make it even more efficient to work with.
I'll post more info once I have at least a prototype of the new version.

It says in the Start Menu "Shortcut to primary output from CameoPicker". What installer are you using?
Works[^] on Weven, will try it on SUSE somewhere this week.

I'm using the Visual Studio Setup Project template. It looks like I still have some tweaking to do in there. (The desktop icon does the same thing.)
I wouldn't get too excited about Linux. If there's something wrong that takes longer than a few minutes to fix for Linux, it ain't gonna happen before the first of the year, and even then, someone else would have to test it.

Yeah, and Mono isn't the primary concern of Xamarin.
It's still fun to see a .NET app on something different from Windows. I'm wondering if it'd work on a MacBook Pro?

As a disinterested party (i.e. would never use the software) but interested in GUI design, my 2c
The tabs in the control layer seem to be ok , not too many of them and the contents look like they're obviously related - but I can imagine a user having to switch between tabs frequently while they play around with colours.
You seem to have two panels headed 'select Paint System' on the General tab, which may be confusing
Personally, looking at the form layout, I would probably make each of the user controls (for I assume that's what they are) collapsible and and re-positionable, and have only one tab (plus maybe the info tab - you don't show that in the screen shot so can't tell)
That way the user can collapse any controls they don't want to see, and drag controls to the top for those they do want to see and use 'right now'
You could also allow them to be re-sized, avoiding the need for scroll bars on some of them...
Then if you wanted to be flash you could have them dockable - so the user could drag them out into their own windows...
It'd make a nice article too - generic dockable sortable collabsible and draggable user controls...

That would only be an issue on the advanced form, but it I don't see a resolution to that.
_Maxxx_ wrote: You seem to have two panels headed 'select Paint System' on the General tab, which may be confusing
The "General" tab is on the simple form, and I simply couldn't think of a better name for it since it holds ALL of the controls on a single tab that had to be broken into different tabs on the advanced form.
The idea is that they will either use the advanced for or the simple form, but not both. In fact, each form is its own version of the same thing.

I can't make them collapsible because one of the tab pages has so many (large) controls on it that they wouldn't fit in the space available.
_Maxxx_ wrote: Then if you wanted to be flash you could have them dockable - so the user could drag them out into their own windows...
To be honest, I was considering making the weapon panel (the panel that shows the environment image with the weapon overlay) a floating window, separate from the controls, but I figured that if someone was already complaining about the size of the app, it wouldn't make much sense to go through the hassle of tying the two forms together.
Thanks for the input. Even though I essentially shot down all your ideas, it gave me stuff to think about, and that's a good thing.

I followed the link to your v.2. screen-shots, when I downloaded the program I got version 1.0.1.1, which has the older interface.
I couldn't comment on the v.2. interface without having a chance to use it.
But, I'm certainly in no hurry

v1.0.1.1 is the latest version available to users. Version 2.0 is under development, and link merely shows screen shots.

Is that because 1.0 seems to be good enough, or because 1.0 sucks so bad that you're assuming v2 must be even worse.

Well that's a question puts me between the Devil and the deep blue sea
The answer is: none of above: I'm just curious to see how your new interface works in action. I like to try things before I make comments.

Hi All,
I know there are a lot of people over here who have a diverse set of knowledge.
Why not we collaborate and start some C/C++ tools/application development that can benefit us and others also.
We can list out our skills, what tools are required and go about developing it and posting it out in CodeProject.
Please let me know your views on this.
~Thanks

How about democraticly ruled company?
If you have an idea on what to do, or have a free time to spend with us, please let us know. Maybe, with your help, somewhere in the future we could have a good plan. If you are enthusiastic enough, here is the link: http://peeramid.org/peeramids/free-programmers

As those of you that have looked at it already know, the software isn't very complicated or extensive. There are only two windows in the app. If you have just 30 minutes to spend on a new release (if it even requires that much time) every few days or so, the next statement is for you.
Being programmers yourselves, you look at stuff that "normal" folks don't, and in different ways. I want to tap into that. If you would like to become an official tester, send me an email with your email address so I can send you the particulars. The testing period will continue until there's a reasonable level of instability in the program (after all, I don't want to make Microsoft nervous by doing any more than they've done with VS2010).
So, if you're up for it, email me.

Just gave it a run[^], got a few points to nag about;
- C/W Rotate, Flip & Mirror-buttons "hide" the weapon.
- There's no exception logged *)
- It'd be nice to see the version number (1.0.0.4) somewhere on the form. **)
- Why can I edit the items in the dropdown-lists?
- When starting, the filename textbox is disabled but it still has a tabstop.
The taborder is correct, I can navigate the app without using the mouse. I'd love to see some keyboard-shortcuts though.
Quite nice
--edit;
*) would help in finding exceptions during this test phase. Would be ideal if there was a button that'd email it to you automagically.
**) it'd really helpfull to have the version-number on each screenshot. You could include it in the title-bar, or as a small label on the form. It helps, a tiny bit.

This one may come later, but while I'm here, would you just like to bring up that the moon itself hasn't been included in the app?
I'll be uploading a new version tonight.

A quick spin[^] on the Linux' machine;
Everything seems to work, flipping and rotating a monochrome image, with the exception of the "Advanced" button.

What's wrong with the advanced button? Doesn't it display the Advanced Viz form?
