I need to convert a Drawing.Bitmap to 4 bit grayscale. Is there any way to accomplish this? I've tried using Bitmap.Clone but I only get the usual infamous "Out of memory" exception. Would this be grayscale even if it managed to convert to 4 bit?

View 1 RepliesI', working on a program where there are several projects within a solution. The solution contains a forms application, a couple of class libraries, and a public interface.I'm running into a strange problem where I can access the system.drawing.bitmap namespace from the main form and from one of the class libraries, but when I try to access it from the other class library or the interface, it tells me it is not defined. I've tried importing it, and calling it directly with no luck.

So my map size is 1000x1000. When I press the button, it creates the map, draws 250 tiles(pixels) in the top left corner of the map, and then displays it on my form. Now to my questions: How can I zoom into certain X, Y positions on the map? After I zoom into the map, how can I call a function when I highlight a tile(pixel), and then another function when I click on a certain tile(pixel)?
I'm taking a screenshot as a System.Drawing.Bitmap and trying to send it through a network as a byte array.If I take the original screenshot and simply save it to disk, it's about 200Kb.Instead I'm saving it to a memorystream so I can write that back to a Byte Array and it's coming out over 6Mb.

I have a VB.NET Windows Forms app with a logo image on the form as a System.Drawing.Bitmap inside a PictureBox.I used the Visual Studio Designer to add the logo .bmp image so I don't currently have any VB code doing anything with it.I'd like to make the current logo a clickable object/button so when I click on it a file browser dialog opens and I can select a new image to replace the current image.The current image is a local resource and is set in a PictureBox as a System.Drawing.Bitmap.How would I replace that System.Drawing.Bitmap with a file selected from the file browser dialog?

I just don't get it. Seems that the method Clone(Rectangle, PixelFormat was not found.

View 4 RepliesI need some code to draw a resizable, draggable rectangular cursor (or selection box) on a picturebox. I found some excellent code (albeit rather old) that does just that, but on a form rather than a picturebox. I have tried converting the code - basically moving things to the picturebox events (Paint, MouseDown, MouseMove etc). It nearly works but leaves a trail behind it when you move or resize the cursor. In other words, the selection rectangle is not being erased before being drawn in the new position.
Is there some fundamental difference between drawing graphics on a form and drawing on a picturebox that would cause this behaviour? Something like, when you invalidate a form and cause a redraw it erases what you did last? If not, then I just need to dig a bit further and work out how the cursor is being erased from the previous position.
Here's the original code that works fine on a form:
Private DragRect As New RectangleF(20, 20, 100, 80)
Private Adornments(7) As RectangleF
Private MouseInRect As Boolean = False

What resources I need to look for, to generate one png image out of three? Since there are sprite generators out there, that do not do what I want, I wanted to try by myself. The user interface should not be the problem, but i have no experience of generating bitmaps, especially those with transparent backgrounds. I will do that in .net. Letīs say I have 6 png files. I want to put them into one image, where there will be two rows of images in it, so 3 in row, 2 in height, 3*2. Every image might have a little different sizes, so i would need to fill up the space with, um, nothing..
