How do you change the cursor image to an image from the project resources?
The methods I have found either don't work or only change the image within the form, and reverts back to default when the mouse leaves the window.
I have a project which contains all custom controls and images; we'll call it projectBase.Now I have created a windows forms project (project1) that references projectBase. I need to access the embedded resource (images) of projectBase in project

View 8 RepliesI need to make an array of images using references to the resources folder. The following is my code which does not work:

I am currently creating a program that will change the cursor's image and let it stay like that until the user clicks use default image button. I do not mean like
Me.Cursor = New Cursor("C:\cursor.ico")
I mean as in even if the user's cursor leaves the form, it will still display the custom cursor only.
I have got only this much done so far, and the code is not 100% working either.
Private Sub ChangeCursorButton_Click()
System.Windows.Forms.Cursor.Hide() 'only hides the cursor when your mouse is on the form, need to fix that
Me.Cursor = New Cursor("cursor.ico") 'had no choice but to use this for now, even if when your cursor is out of the form it will revert to the original.
[Code] .....
The code only works if your cursor is on the form. If its not, it doesn't work as intended.
I need the code to work that the cursor will hide the original cursor and let the custom cursor I declared shown.

View 2 RepliesI'm developing an application where the desktop wallpaper will change from an image in my resources. Or change it to a solid color.
View 4 RepliesI created a new cursor (it works properly, I tried it in windows 7) but is not working for me in the program.I took the Windows cursor (aero_helpsel_xl, from C:WindowsCursors) and it appears to me the same error.i use with this code:
Me.Cursor = New Cursor("Patch..")
The problem say:: "{"Image format is not valid. Image file may be corrupted.
Parameter name: stream "}"
edit: I realized what the problem ... It can read only cur files with 24-bit color and lower - but it shows only two colors: black and white.

View 1 RepliesI made a picture box and imported an image named Title.jpg. Later I made adjustments to the picture and imported it again without deleting the original(mistake). The new one had the name automatically changed to Title1.jpg. So I deleted the original image from resources and renamed Title1.jpg back to Title.jpg.
Now I got two problems. First, only Title.jpg is on the solution explorer, but Title1.jpg(along with Title.jpg) still pops up on the resource list when I click on Image property of the picture box. There's only the name and no picture, and I don't see a delete option. How do I get rid of it? Second, even though I changed the image to the new Title.jpg in the picture box, the old one is displayed when running the app. What's up with that?

I am trying to load a GIF file by its string name from my.resources as what GIF to show is chosen at random and based off that random number we get a valid string name. The names come out proper because I used the Msgbox trick
Here is my faulty coding
Public Function PrintCardName(ByVal Suit As String, ByVal Hand As String, ByRef ImgBoxUpdate As System.Windows.Forms.PictureBox)
'Working code omitted to save reading time
ImgBoxUpdate.Image = My.Resources.ResourceManager.GetObject(Card_File_N ame)
End Function
And Card_File_Name is a predefined string, and no there is no space after the letter N in card_file_name it just appears that way because its italicized
The issue is that the Imagebox that is referanced to IMGBOXUPDATE goes blank after this function.

View 5 RepliesI am attempting to use several image resources in a web application I am working on, but I am doing something wrong. Here is what I have so far:.An image named frog.gif in a folder named images (/images/frog.gif). This image has the Build Action set to Embedded Resource.
.The Root Namespace (as specified in My Project -> Application) is WebApplication2005.The AssemblyInfo.vb file contains the line:<Assembly: WebResource("WebApplication2005.images.frog.gif", "image/gif")>
.The codebehind file for the page contains the following line in the Load event:
Me.Image1.ImageUrl = Me.Page.ClientScript.GetWebResourceUrl(Me.GetType(), "WebApplication2005.images.frog.gif")
However, when I do a debug, the src attribute of the img tag does have a URL starting with
WebResource.axd, but it is not accessing the resource. What could I be doing wrong? I feel like I have tried everything possible, but with no success.[URL]..
