I hve been working with points a lot recently, and I have been wondering if there is a way to set a point without setting point.x and point.y separately. For example for (3, 5): Point1 = (3, 5) But that isn't right
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to extract a piece of text from within the string, defining both a starting point and an ending point. For instance, say I want to search for the text found between "That is a " and " car" in the string "That is a red car", so it would return "red".I know you can use .SelectionStart and SelectionLength, but the length of the word can change, so the selection length can vary. What I want is to establish a specific starting point and a specific ending point from which to extract the text from the string.

i have a picturebox which displays a map i have 2 modes add point and delete point when the user clicks the picture it creates a point on the picture where the user has clicked that works perfectly its when i try and delete the point when it doesent work :/ i have all the points loading from an xml file this is the code i have:

basicly i want it to when the user clicks the point it fines the x any y in the xml delete the node then delete all the points on the map then reload them all according to the xml
I have two points (x1, y1) and (x2,y2) and have a straight line between the 2 points, from this I can work out the distance between the 2 points lets say it is 50.What I want to do is increase or decrease the length of the line by a predefined amount lets say 10.So If I increase the line length by 10 (from 50 to 60), What I want to work out is what point(x3,y3) would be at the end of the increased line.Hope this makes sense.I have tried to work out the new point using the angle but it does not work correctly, it does not seems to produce a perfectly straight line and the angle from point (x1,y1) to the new (x3,y3) is not the same as the angle from point (x1,y1 to x2,y2).
This is what I have tried:
:I work out the angle
aAngle =Math.Atan((Y2 Y1) / (X2 X2))

I am suing VB 2008 express edition.
I am trying to solve this problem since many days. The problem seems to be rather mathematical, but I faced difficulties dealing with Grids and how to store them using visual basic.

In my problem, I have a world of 200 x 200 units divided into 4 x 4 grids (Each of 50 units).
There is a line crosses some areas has the coordinates of Point A (Starting Point) of (XA = 12.43, BA = 159.48) and Point B coordinates (Ending Point) of (XB = 112.95, YB = 20.95).
The question is, how can find the length of (A to C1), (C1 to C2), (C2 to C3), (C3 to C4), (C4 to C5) and finally (C5 to B)?
In addition, how can I indicate the square in which the line is inside?
note that the method should work for all conditions (-ve and +ve line slopes) and for different A and coordinates.
i wanta like is like a maze each time u click it exendese the line.the promblem is the walls and well i dont know how to draw line(+ a {} at each connecting point) and have the line not be able to pass the wall and if it pass it, it able to detect the shorts path of lines which u can set it on if off. for the training session.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to calculate the direction between two points on a two-dimensional grid. Actually I want to determine if that vector is within a range of two values. Suppose the grid's origin is 0,0 at the upper left corner, and 0 degrees represents north. I have a point A on that grid. I want to know if a line from point A to point B on the grid is within a range of directions between 111.8 degrees (a little south of east) and 158.2 (a little east of south). Those are approximations; the 111.8 is 90 degrees plus the arctangent of 2/5, and 158.2 is 180 minus that value. I worked out a series of calculations worthy of a medieval astronomer, but I suspect there is a simpler way. I'm going to have to do this for a variety of other vectors, and I'd like to generalize

View 2 RepliesI need to move an ellipse from a known point on the screen to another known point on the screen.
I've tried using For.....Loops with less than desired results.
I can't remember everything I've tried, a lot of trial and error has been layed to waste. Lol
I've ended up with this code after putting together what I've tried, what I've learned elsewhere, and a couple of posts I've read on here.
All I want to do is move the ellipse from one point to the other along a straight line that forms the angle between the two points (X1,Y1) and (X2,Y2), make it grow from 2 pixels at it's start, to about 80 pixels by the time it reaches half way, then shrink from 80 pixels back down to 2 pixels by the time it reaches the point (X2,Y2).
Easier said than done.

First, the overall objective is to find the best point within a multipoint filled 'star', at which to start drawing text. That is, depending upon the size of the star and the number of points, there is a larger or smaller area within the points that is filled with colour. So a 5 point star has a relatively small area that is filled, in which to draw text. A 40 point star of the same radius has a much larger area filled. If I can determine the size of this area as a rectangle, then I can measure the string and draw within it using the best fit font and starting position. The code below is an attempt to answer the question but I am stuck trying to find the text area rectangle within the filled portion of the star. Some of the code exists purely to explore the means to determine how to identify this rectangle (and is probably the totally wrong direction).
The second part of the problem is in exploring the options, I tried to draw a vector to different points on the circumference of the star. This is the code highlighted. The lines drawn do not seem to be the correct length nor the correct angle but I cannot see why.[code]...
I'm drawing a rectangle snapped to a grid by getting the start point(Mouse down e.location) and the end point(mouseup(e.location). The coding I'm having trouble with is having the program determine which way to draw the rectangle(where the location should be, and the height and width.) Now, this would be extremely simple if the user started their rectangle from the top left corner and ended it in the bottom right every time. But you need to be able to drag from all angles. So does anyone have some code lying around that I could look at so I could actually get my rectangles drawn right?
