I'm putting together a user control that I want to have some animation in (it shows a pump running) and was able to cobble together a nice animated GIF with Photoshop:When I pop it onto a PictureBox in my control, it animates and looks really good.The problem I have, is I want to be able to change the color-palette information in the image to adjust the hue.Thus, when the user chooses "Color.Red", the image is altered so the dark blue in the image becomes Color.Red and the other colors are adjusted accordingly.
The color math I got no problem with, my problem is, how do you change the color information of an animated gif image without ruining it?I can't just convert it to a bitmap or I loose the animation. It has a single, universal color palette so it shouldn't be too hard.Pre-rendered GIFs aren't an option since these pumps pump colored liquid, I want the user to be able to set them on the fly.
How to change the visibility of controls on timer

View 1 RepliesI have a hash table which contains the names of all my textboxes in my program. Then I have a function which takes in a string name of the text box and searches a the list of keys for the name. Once this name is found I would like to use the instance of the text box to be assigned the name of my target and change the visibility. Whereas if it isn't found I would like to ensure that the visibility is set to false with this instance of the textbox.
Private Sub HideBoxes(ByVal strName As String)
Dim thisTEXT As TextBox
For Each objKey In Hash.Keys
If objKey.ToString = strName Then

I populate a hash table with the name of a control as the key and the control itself as the value using the following code that loops through my code on start-up:
Private Sub Populate_Hash_Table()
For Each ctrl As Control In Me.Controls
For Each member As Control In ctrl.Controls

This method works effectively, but the only problem is I seem to get a preformance hit as it takes a second to set the current control to false and the new one's visibility to true. What way should I modify my code so that it works more efficiently?
I have a form which contains a large number of textboxes covering numerous panels/tab controls and I would like to have the user only have one text box visible at a given time and when the user clicks on the screen to another label with a corresponding text box I would like that to appear and the other currently open to disappear. Currently I have the following loop that goes through and changes the visibility of the appropriate controls unless it is the name of the control I am looking for:
'This is used to iterate through all the controls in the form and ensure the visibility of all other controls
' than the active control is set to false.

how to graphically show an analog needle moving similar to an old analog meter. I have the picture of the meter I created in paint brush. What I need to know if possible is how do I show the needle moving to a certain value. Basically one end of the needle will be fixed in the middle bottom of the picture and it would move accordingly at a certain angle to my calculations of a certain process.
View 11 RepliesI have a form positioned slightly above the taskbar/system tray in the bottom right corner of my desktop window.It's sort of like a pop-up notification.The notification itself looks great,but there's a button on it which resizes the form up, animating the sizing in increments of 5px whilst keeping it's position relative to the bottom-right corner of the screen.
The problem with this is that it doesn't look very smooth. Adjusting Me.Width resizes from the left so you have to then move the form to the left with Me.Left to compensate. Me. SetBounds just seems to be a wrapper for setting those properties anyway.Is there anything I can do to have the form smoothly (or at least appear to) resize outwards from the left of the form?

I am not sure why I can't use pictureboxes when its visibility is set to false?? While the picturebox is not hidden, as part of my game I want the user to be able to guess where the picturebox is which means by clicking on it, it should trigger an event but even when I set this event, nothing happens. When visibility is set to true then the event triggers.
I want to be able to trigger events even if visibility is set to false,
Is there any way to set the visibility of an iFrame dynamically?
Tried researching on the web but couldnt find any.
Currently my program randomly removes words from a set of text and inserts textboxes below the text. The user can then enter his/her answers in the new textboxes. What I would like to do is set the program so the user can have two choices one being Easy and other being Advanced. Then when the user hits either button it brings up everything that is currently on the form. I'd prefer to do this without having to use MDI forms. I've had a hard time using the MDI forms and therefore would like to avoid using them. They way I was thinking this could work is all objects would remain invisible except for the 2 buttons and then when you hit one of them they disappear and everything else appears.
View 1 RepliesI am using VB.Net 2003 (version 1.1) and I am attempting to open some forms with:

I've been working at this for hours, and I'm completely stumped. There may be a more elegant way to do what I want, but I can't find it in my reference books or online. I have a form that has 64 labels corresponding to 64 unique locations on a map. Each of the labels contains one character, a ●. The program determines, randomly, if these is something in those locations.'m using a For... next loop to step through each location and determine if there is something there.My question is how do I turn off the label in the form without resorting to some 64 choice Select Case statement (or something similar).
