I'm trying to add picture boxes on my form for a connect 4 game. I'm trying to make the grid and use a loop to do so. This is the code I have so far, trying to make it a subroutine I can just call on my form_load.
'create picture boxes for game board
Private Sub pb()
Dim i, j As Int16
Dim space As Int16 = 5
For i = 0 To 3

I know this may seen a simple request, but if you start a timer, and jump into a while loop, how come the timer stops working unless you use DoEvents?
However, using DoEvents, if you have a picturebox to click to stop the timer, you have to click it twice to stop the timer?[code]...
I have some problems with a for loop in visual basic.
Public Const numofblocks As Short = 88
Public Shared blocks(numofblocks) As PictureBox
For x = 1 To numofblocks
blocks((x)) = PictureBox(x)
Next
The error raised at the picturebox statement: PictureBox' is a type and cannot be used as an expression. The result of this for loop is that every picturebox in the designer form is named: blocks([number of picturebox]). I need this for some other for loops.
loop all pictures found in this path C:Images to a pictureboxin the code below it show's all the pictures to the form..
Private getpath As String = "C:Images"
Private imageFiles As String() = IO.Directory.GetFiles(getpath)

I am trying to make a for loop in which a picturebox is suppose to go up and then down. The problem I am having is that the picturebox is not animated; i.e, it does not update the image rather the image stays the same as from the start.
I am using timers to animate the picturebox and I have done something similar to:
For count = 1 to 8Select Case countCase 1tmrJump1.Enabled = TrueCase 2tmrJump2.Enabled = TrueAnd so forthEnd SelectNext
This is my first attempt at doing something in VB.net. I would like to be able to read a text file consisting of a column of data values and then pass the data as a variable to a sub that produces a line graph and updates it with each iteration through the loop. So far I have the code to read the file as well as some code that produces a line graph using hard coded values.
I am unsure how to call this sub from my loop such that I can pass that data value read from the file to the graphing sub.
How can I call the "PictureBox1_Paint" sub from my loop? How can I pass variables read from the data file to "PictureBox1_Paint" when I am calling it? Is there anything different that needs to be done if I want the graph to update with each iteration through the loop (for each data point)?

View 7 RepliesMakes the following statement about the code below:
**"The computer evaluates the loop condition in the Do...Loop statment to determine whether the loop instructions should be processed. In this case, the inputsales <> String.Empty condition compares the contenst of the input sales variable to the String.Empty value. As you know the String.Empty value represents a zero length, or empty, string if the inputsales variable is empty, the loop condition evaluates to True and the computer process the loop instructions. *If on the other hand the inputsales variable is not empty, the loop condition evaluates to false and the computer skips over the loop instructions.
Based on the code I think it is the opposite: ...that while the inputsales value is not empty it should evaluate to true and process the loop and if it is empty it should evaluate to false and skip the loop?
See below.

I have a form that goes through an endless loop and processes data. When I click a button that "closes" the form the form keeps processing even though it is closed. I want the form to completely end and exit out of its loop statement. Then open a new form.Here is the code I am using to close the form
frmMain.Close()
frmMain.Dispose()

View 2 RepliesMy name is DN and I'm creating a strategy game. I have created a panel and I have put a PictureBox on it. Now, the problem is here: The PictureBox is bigger than the panel. I know that we can solve the problem with putting to the panel two scrollbars, but as in a good game scrollbars should not exist in the main picture (map). I want for the people to control the map with keys (up,down,left,right) and the scrollbars should not be visible.

My code is: frmSetup.pbxUSBInterfaceAttached.Image = My.Resources.CheckMark
I noticed that when my code goes from one form to another, the debugger no longer knows that there is an image in the picturebox (pbxUSBInterfaceAttached.Image = Nothing). I tried changing the Modifiers property of the picturebox to Public and it had no effect. Is there any way to do this or do I have to change the image from within the form that contains the picturebox?

It does that you click on something in the form then it will create a Picturebox.Okay what I want more is this:
1. It should only can be made one picture box every 32x32 like this:
If you dont know what I mean then just forgot it but please try.
2. When I right click on the mouse the Picturebox should be deleted.
I was wondering how to drag items in a form, such as a picturebox. I know how to get it to follow the mouse when you click on it but I was wondering if there is any mouse down function, so it will only drag when the button is pushed down then it will let go when the button is released.

I am adding some picture boxes to the form dynamically, I want to give the users an option to remove the picture box, say by right clicking on it and selecting Remove. Or by some other way, as it is available in Microsoft Word, where the user can simply press Delete to remove the picture.
