Passing data between two forms

Passing data between two forms - c#

first of all i want you to know that i know that there a lot of results for this question, but i have searched far and wide still haven't come up with a solution for my problem.
i have tried to do the following:
1.constructor
2.objects
3.properties
4.delegates
but none of my implementation of them really did worked as wanted (in this "solution" i have used properties
when i press "back" on the "pop up" screen i dont in the main screen the value i choose from in the "pop up" screen
basically, it's something like, i have main screen and a "pop up"
the main screen

WindowsMediaPlayer: Cannot set maximum value

I'm trying to set a maximum value of a metro theme trackbar using an integer from WindowsMediaPlayer's current media however it keeps throwing the following error:
Specified argument was out of the range of valid values.
Parameter name: Maximal value is lower than minimal one
This means that the maximum value is not being set at all, I'm not sure why.

How can i use my splash screen until all data is loaded using a progressBar?

In the splash screen i'm using now just for the demo a timer.
But i want to use a class that using win32 classes and wait until all loops are finished. While it's looping to make the progressBar move until 100%.
In form1 i didn't make yet anything.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace TestingHardware
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
}
}
In Program.cs i changed the Run:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace TestingHardware
{
static class Program
{
/// <summary>
/// The main entry point for the application.
/// </summary>
[STAThread]
static void Main()
{
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
Application.Run(new Splash_Screen());
}
}
}
Then i added a new form for the splash screen:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace TestingHardware
{
public partial class Splash_Screen : Form
{
Timer tmr;
public Splash_Screen()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void Splash_Screen_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
private void Splash_Screen_Shown(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
tmr = new Timer();
//set time interval 3 sec
tmr.Interval = 3000;
//starts the timer
tmr.Start();
tmr.Tick += tmr_Tick;
}
void tmr_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//after 3 sec stop the timer
tmr.Stop();
//display mainform
Form1 mf = new Form1();
mf.Show();
//hide this form
this.Hide();
}
}
}
In the splash screen form designer i added a progressBar.
And last the Form that get the hardware info. I want the splash screen and progressBar to shown while it's looping until the end.

It's using win32 classes and instead adding it to a ListView i want to add each part to a List. Then i want to use the Lists in form1 when it's finishing all loops and add the Lists to controls. Or maybe i should load it in form1 already ?
Not sure.

If searcher has a Count property, use that for your maximum value. Determine current percentage with:
int count = 0;
try
{
foreach (ManagementObject share in searcher.Get())
{
count++;
progressbar1.Value = count * 100 / Math.Max(1, searcher.Count);
Also, make sure that you are setting your ListView to suspend updates using .SuspendLayout() before adding the items and .ResumeLayout() afterwards as constantly updating your ListView is very slow.
Another recommendation would be to place all your ListViewItems into an List/Array and then just update your ListView once.
Create a List at the start just after the Clear()
lst.SuspendLayout();
lst.Items.Clear()
System.Collections.Generic.List<ListViewItem> listViewItems = new System.Collections.Generic.List<ListViewItem>();
Then where you were adding the items before add them to the List<>
listViewItems.Add(item);
And finally after all records have been processed add the List<> to your ListView and resume updates
try
{
// All your code here
lst.Items.AddRange(listViewItems.ToArray());
}
finally
{
lst.ResumeLayout();
}
