I'm developing an interface for a Winforms C# application, and whenever tabbing out of the app into another, the button I clicked before tabbing out has this white outline around it. Is there any possible way to get rid of this? This is a default winforms button.

So I have winform app that already has a bunch of buttons on it that function. To clean up the UI some I wanted to be able to move those existing buttons onto tabs. But it looks like it wont let me just drag the buttons over. I know I can create new things on these tab windows, but would like to just move things over so i dont have to write all new features of the app. Any solutions?
I am looking for a way to disable 'Preferences' Button in Print Dialog in WPF. What I want is preventing the user from clicking that button and do unnecessary changes to the print.
I want to do it without creating a whole other print dialog on my own. Is there a possible way of accessing those buttons from code behind and manipulate them?
If I try to hit the 'clear' button on my filter TextBox, the command bar thinks I'm trying to hit the ellipsis and opens, without letting my click through to the cross.
Is there anyway I can get around this?
ApplicationBar is a system control where we can't do much. We can change colors, opacity and that's all. There is no way to modify this behavior.
You have to consider changes in your design. For me as a user and graphics designer it's really strange that your search box is on the bottom. It's natural to put it on the top. It's on the top everywhere in Windows Phone, so I suggest you to be consistent with the OS.
Does anyone know how to minimize the wpf window into the bottom right corner by click on some button? I want this happen when i click on the X button.
Thanks.
The NotifyIcon control is used to add an item to the systray. I dont think it exists in WPF but you should be able to use the winforms one in your app.
There are some WPF samples around on implementing from scratch.

i have written a small form application, which contains textbox only. I have enabled shortcut key by using low level keyboard hook to give focus to application when needed.
All is working fine, I press the short key i.e. (Left Control Key)+(Left Control Key) for the first time the application get proper control (focus).
But when I deactivate and redo the shortcut key, the icon of the application on the taskbar starts blinking and the form doesn't get focus, the title bar is greyed out.
More Information :
on deactivation the form's opacity is reduced but it remains on top, so the whole time the form is displayed on the screen
This form is activated from another class, within the application.
On Activation event opacity of the form is increased so it now very well visible
I am giving focus to the application by using form.Activate() I have also tried from.Visible but with no luck.
The activation works for the first time only, post that the icon in taskbar blinks.
Does any have any idea why is this happening?
This answer applies to you as well:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/3789985/64121 . You need to make use of the AttachThreadInput API function in order to steal focus away from another app.
