Display 48X48 Icon From Project/Resource?
Aug 2, 2010
Im in a win.form app. in .Net 2008 I have a lot of Icons that I want to display on a (TouchScreen enviroment) button The icons are in 8,16; 32 bit in the sizes 16X16 ; 32X32 ; 48X48
The buttons are large enough, they have a dimension of 252X132.The images are loaded via the Button propertie : Image. This has allso a size propertie, but is disabled. And I can see its loading the 32X32 32bpp format But I want the 48X48 size on there. Does some 1 knows how to get those sizes op the button.
I know its possible via a imagelist but why have a resource if you cant use it??

How would I display an Icon at 48x48 resolution on a form in vb.net? I looked at using imagelist , but I don't know how to display the image that I add to the list using code and how to specify it's coordinates on the form. I did some google searching but none of the examples really show what I need to know.

I'm trying to get the 48x48 icon from an exe. I found a lot of examples in C#, but was unable to convert them to VB.NET. The examples I have are: url...Specifically the portion I can't figure out how to convert is the definition for IImageList..Any suggestions how to do this or how to convert that code?

I need to refer to some strings using an "indirect string" in the registry. It should be in this form:
@filename,resource
MSDN: "If the resource value is zero or greater, the number becomes the index of the string in the binary file. If the number is negative, it becomes a resource ID."How can I find out either of these numbers for my resources that only have names in VB? I also need the ID/index for the exe's icon.

I currently have the following code but I would like to get away from going to a physical location. If I have the icon as a resource, how can I programatically add the icon? I don't want to use the form's designer to do this.
Sub Form1_Load()
Dim ico As New System.Drawing.Icon("C:Resourcesicon.ico")
Me.Icon = ico
End Sub

Here's the code that I use to extract the icon size that I want:
Dim i As Icon = My.Resources.Spectrum
Using i2 As New Icon(i, New Size(256, 256))
Me.PictureBox1.Image = i2.ToBitmap
End Using
This works from 16x16 up to 128x128 but for 256x256 it extracts the 128x128 icon. I tried 0x0, because I seem to remember that that is how the large size is stored in the meta data, but that didn't work either.

I have a good batch of PNGs in my resources (with alpha transparencies) that I use on various controls in my program. However, I would like to be able to use some of those same images as form icons.
How can I convert the PNGs into a usable format so they can be assigned to the forms icon on the fly?

If I have say a wav file as a resource in a form, is there a way that I can extract it when the program is run and set it as say... the windows logon sound? Or perhaps an image and set it as the wallpaper? Or does it have to be an external file that the form would have to handle?

In a VB project I can add a resource via the project properties resources tab, or I can right-click the project in the solution explorer, click add, then click add existing item. What are the differences?If I want to add a DLL file and include it as an embedded resource, do I have to add the file via both methods? Only one?

I have iTextSharp creating a pdf for me in VB.net. Everything was working famously, except now I want to embed an image. I tried this:
Dim test = My.Resources.MyImage
Dim logo = Image.GetInstance(test)
This an error though:
'GetInstance' cannot be called with these arguments
It appears as though it expects a path, and is getting a System.Drawing.Bitmap type.
Is there any way that I can add a project resource image to my PDF?

I'm pretty sure this is something super easy, but how do i access a resource that is in a separate project using the expression syntax?I thought it would be like so:
<%$ Resources:SomeNamespace.Resources.Web, PleaseSelectAnImage %>
where SomeNamespace.Resources is the project that the resources are located in.
i normally just do <%= SomeNamespace.Resources.Web.PleaseSelectAnImage%> but i need to have this inside a control. <kw:SlickUpload ID="SlickUpload1" runat="server"
ValidExtensions=".png, .gif, .jpg"
InvalidExtensionMessage="<%$ Resources:SomeNamespace.Resources.Resources.Web, PleaseSelectAnImage %>" >
so when i just do what i normally do, it puts <%= SomeNamespace.Resources.Web.PleaseSelectAnImage%>" literally.my project name is SomeNamespace.Resources. the resource file name is Web. and the key is PleaseSelectAnImage.

I have a Windows project in Visual Studio 2010 in which I store all images in the project's resource file that Visual Studio created for me. However, it's getting cluttered and I'd like to separate images into multiple resource files if possible. I created a new resource file, but Visual Studio doesn't recognize it when I go to the form designer and try to change an image. The only file that comes up under the Project resource files available are MyProjectResources.resx. The one that I just created isn't there.

So there's lots of examples of how to do this if your text file happens to be in XML format. However, my text file is not in XML format and as it contains over 172,000 rows I'm not that keen on adapting it (it's a dictionary)! The text file has been included in the project as a resource.
So far I've got a DataGridView (could use a DataRepeater if easier?), a BindingSource and a DataSet.
The DataSet has a DataTable already defined in the designer with one column.I've managed to load the text file into a String and then create a StringReader based on that String variable, however I cannot find anyway of loading those strings into the DataTable.
Dim listWords As String = My.Resources.WordList Dim strReader As New System.IO.StringReader(listWords)
'What now???There are some examples of using OleDb functionality but all assume you're loading from a text file residing somewhere in the filesystem, not a project resource.(I'm also assuming that on building the application the resources get embedded (somewhere) rather than being accessed from [AppDir]/Resources/[filename] ??)

I want to add an animated taskbar icon to my WPF project. I figured I would just use the Icon property, but I'm fairly new to WPF, and I dont know how to do it. In Winforms I would create a thread like this:[code]But I can't find a Window.Dispatcher to use this approach in WPF. I also see something about "BeginAnimation" in the Icon Property?

I have a little problem trying to port a C++ approach to use a notify icon control to a VB WPF project.
Code:
m_notifyIcon.Click += new EventHandler(m_notifyIcon_Click);
VS says that m_notifyIcon.Click is an event and can not be called directly and that I should use RaiseEvent.
