The pink is the new and improved entrance to Walmart. What’s wrong with this picture?

  1. Nothing, this is the best design possible.
  2. Oh, man! How am I going to hold on to my phone around all those curves?
  3. It needs to wrap around the car dealership more, maybe even a full loop
  4. Everything

City of Moline's Answer:

Well, since this is what they are implementing, I gues it’s the best they can come up with....

A. This is the best design possible.

Conventional Answer

D. What's not?

OK, I get it, the entrance needs to be farther from the stop light on John Deere so there is less pile-up. But why not something simple and direct, like the green lanes in tihs image?

Detecting MouseEnter and MouseLeave in a control that has lots of children controls (.Net)

Submitted by drew on

Seems like I have been through this before. What I want to do is hide and show something, depending on whether the mouse is inside of a certain area. For instance, I have a container of some sort with lots of controls on it. When the mouse is anywhere inside of the container, I want a link to be visible. I can't simply use the MouseEnter/MouseLeave events on the container, because MouseLeave is triggered when the mouse enters a child control and the MouseEventArgs don't say anything about what control is being entered.

Say Goodbye to Windows 8's Start Screen

Submitted by drew on

 

All of the people I've talked to who don't like Windows 8, don't like it because of the new start screen. You know, the tiled "apps" screen. A.K.A. "Metro" screen.

Maybe that sort of thing makes sense on a touchscreen device. Not on a desktop computer or standard laptop.

This free software brings back your start menu, like in Windows 7: ClassicShell. If you set it to start in desktop mode, you can say goodbye to the start screen! Here's how.
