Due Monday, September 22 (not late until 6 am 9/23)

Create a Windows Forms Application in Visual Studio. The project will use the user settings to save the size and location of the main form. It will also implement a modeless dialog with data exchange.

User Settings

Create user settings for the size of the form and the desktop location of the form.

• Use appropriate starting values.

Modeless Dialog

Create a dialog that will be opened modelessly.

• Add a label and textbox for a name.
• Add Ok, Apply and Close buttons.
• When Apply or Ok are clicked, notify any listeners.
• The Close button should only close the form.
• If the Enter Key is hit in the dialog, the Apply button handler should fire.
• If the Escape Key is hit in the dialog, the Close button handler should fire.
• Implement an interface for the name and an event.

Main Form

Create a main form that will have a group box and a list view.

• Create properties in the main form to access the user settings. Use these settings to access the properties in the main form.
• Set the size and desktop location to the settings when the form loads.
• Dock the groupbox to the top. Add four buttons to the group box.
  • Add Names: open the modeless dialog.
    • Handle the dialog's event.
    • When the event fires, add the name to the list view, as long as the name is not empty.
    • Clear the name in the dialog after it is added to the list.
  • Save Size: set the user setting for the size to the current size and save the settings
  • Save Location: set the user setting for the location to the current desktop location and save the settings
  • Reset Settings: reset the user settings to the original default values. Set the size and desktop location to the reset settings.
• Dock the list view so it fills the remaining available space in the form.
