Parameter not valid on form resize? - Lord - Jun 23, 2020
I'm really not sure what's going on here but an application I've been working on for a while, I just noticed, throws an error when the form is minimized then re-opened.
I can't for the life of me figure out what's causing this so I'm posting here as sort of a last resort. Anyone know what's going on or have any sorta ideas?
The error throws up on the Program.cs on Application.Run(new Form1());
Here's a copy of the stacktrace
Code
at System.Drawing.Bitmap..ctor(Int32 width, Int32 height, PixelFormat format)
at System.Drawing.Bitmap..ctor(Int32 width, Int32 height)
at Theme.FaderComboBox.OnPaint(PaintEventArgs e)
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.PaintWithErrorHandling(PaintEventArgs e, Int16 layer)
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WmPaint(Message& m)
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WndProc(Message& m)
at System.Windows.Forms.ComboBox.WndProc(Message& m)
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.OnMessage(Message& m)
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m)
at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.DebuggableCallback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)Edit: solved, I guess there was an issue with the dll I compiled the theme into. Thanks for all the help!

That stack trace isn't worth much if you don't share the event code for form redraw. That's probably what's triggering the error. Are you using a theme?

I am, I'm using the FaderTheme compiled as a dll.
Quick google search brings this back for a vb.net version of it. I've had it compiled and saved for ages so I'm not 100% sure if this is the same exact code I'm using or not tho.

Edit: Turns out I do still have the original code. I uploaded it here. https://pastebin.com/G6wUUXLA
Pretty much the same thing.

You're amazing, I love this theme and have been using it for a while. Hope you don't mind that.
Since you're looking at redoing it would it be possible to add the ability to resize the form as well?

Your problem is not from the theme.
The theme is working perfectly.

And that's what I was thinking too but whenever I minimize the form and re-open it it crashes with the error I originally posted. I don't have any code that runs when the form minimizes or re-opens so I don't know what it could possibly be.

I test it under 4.5 framework both as dll as well as code and both times worked perfect.

Any ideas what could it be then cause I'm totally lost here.

Replace the theme .dll with this one: https://easyupload.io/enpzsf
Good luck.
Also I noticed that for you or your users to run this program you need to install wpcap.
You should add wpcap.dll as reference.

Have you changed any code before compiling .dll?
