Forms :: PictureBox - Image Loading Using ComboBox
May 14, 2009
I have a picture box on my form along with a combo box with a number of different options. So anyway when a combo box item is selected I want it to look in the dataset for the selected item's row and pick out the image to load and then using an IF statement it sets the image (or should).
Dim RaceImg As String = DS.Tables("tblRaces").Rows(ID).Item("RaceImg")
If RaceImg = "AusGP" Then
GP_Picture.Image = Image.FromFile("./Track Images/AusGP.png")
ElseIf RaceImg = "MalGP" Then
GP_Picture.Image = Image.FromFile("./Track Images/MalGP.png")
End If
I have tried a number of different ways to get this working, I have tried them in the resources for the program and also tried the following code
GP_Picture.Image = "./Track Images/AusGP.png"
It seems like the picture box isn't redrawing or something? Just to add it will load the first image which is the AusGP because thats the first option in the combo box, after that none of the others will load.

Is it possible to load an image into a picturebox when that picture box is clicked? What would the syntax look like? It's an image that I already dropped onto the form that I would like to load into that picturebox.

I want to make a program similar to this one: [URL]. I already have the ListBox ready. But how do I load the images?
The image name works like this:
-File1.package
-File1A.jpg
-File1B.jpg
So the .package is removed and A.jpg or B.jpg is added.

I am trying to get a picture box (that has a loading image .gif) to be visible while the program reads a text file and change visible to false when all the information in the file.txt is displayed in the textbox.
Here is my
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
PictureBox1.Visible = True
If System.IO.File.Exists("C: est.txt") = True Then
Dim objreader As New System.IO.StreamReader("C: est.txt")

I currently have 4 images that I need to load into a picture box at different times, it works fine for me but if I send it to a friend it wont work because the file path is different. I use this at the moment:
If filmType = "Jumper" Then
img = "E:TheatreBookinginimages"
picFilms.Load(img)
lblFilmInfo.Text = ("A genetic anomaly allows a young man to teleport himself anywhere.")
lblFilmInfoTwo.Text = ("This gift leads him into a war that has existed for centuries.")
End If

I'm sure there are similar threads, but I've search and tried most things and still can't find something that works.
I am testing a small project, in the attempt to find the solution for a much bigger application. So, here's the deal. I'm using VB 2005 and MSSQL 2005 (both are Express editions). I've stored the names to some images in the database.
When I use PictureBox1.image = My.Resources.<filename>
and build the application, it works and properly displays the image. Now, what I'm really trying to do is extract an image names from the database and assign it to a variable, this is what I have.
Dim EqTest As New Test1DataSet.EqTestDataTable
Dim EqTestAdapter As New Test1DataSetTableAdapters.EqTestTableAdapter
EqTestAdapter.Fill(EqTest)
[Code]....
I've used the messagebox for testing so that I can see what the value of "Trythis" is, and the string is "My.Resources.<filename>", which is the correct string, but I can't use that string in the picturebox to display the image, because I get an error "Value of Type String can not be converted to System.Drawing.Image".

Just want to know the best method to load a picture in a picture box dynamically. As part of my development, I was supposed to load 4 pictures from network to 4 picturebox controls.
For which, I found, 2 methods.
1. Picturebox1.Image=new bitmap("C:\test.jpg")
(or)
2. Piturebox1.ImageLocation="C:\test.jpg"
Which one is more suitable interms of performance.

Imports System.Drawing
Imports System.Drawing.Drawing2D
Imports System.Windows.Forms

So, now I've exactly used this code to load an image from a path specified. Still, i seem to get a blank form when i run. im quite sure about the path and the existence of the file. Also, the exact piece of code is also available at: Draw an image : Draw Image2D GraphicsVB.Net Tutorial So, now do i have to insert a picture box to se the loaded image. Its like.. ive used the graphics thing to draw the image. so i reckoned that picture box was unnecessary.

I'm using VB 2008 express to create a windows form application. I have a combobox named cb_face. The items in the combobox are image file names populated from my resource folder using a "for each" loop. When an item is selected I would like to display the image in picturebox1. I have tried several different codes but none of them display the image. I am not getting any errors. The comment lines show some of the code that has been tried.
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim ImgFolder As New IO.DirectoryInfo("C:Documents and SettingsubdMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2008ProjectsBlank OutBlank OutResources")
Dim ImgFile As IO.FileInfo() = ImgFolder.GetFiles("*.bmp")
Dim info As IO.FileInfo
For Each info In ImgFile

I'm currently in the process of making a dynamic signature generator, and I want to make the user be able to see what he would get... So I thought of putting a browse button and allowing them to load up a background image for their signature, but I also want the picturebox to resize according to that image's size. I need them to be the same size because of the image's X, Y are needed for the signature.
So I'm using this code for that:
LocalMousePosition = PictureBox1.PointToClient(Cursor.Position)
xy.Text = ("X=" & LocalMousePosition.X & "," & "Y= " & LocalMousePosition.Y)
It works fine, but it only gets the coordinates for the picturebox, not the actuall image, so I think if the picturebox is the same size as the picturebox it would get them just fine..

Currently I'm using a picturebox object in a program which is referenced to a location on my local computer ie "PictureBox.image = Image.FromFile("c:/image.jpg")". I would like the image packaged in the .exe rather than using the file's extension. So if the exe is copied to another computer it will display fine. How can I do this? I was able to do this is the drag and drog editor by importing an image rather than specifying a location, but for my purposes I'd like it done programmatically.

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?

Ive been programming in VB6 for years, i figured its time for an upgrade. Here's what im doing, and what the problem is:
Im loading a bunch of pictures on top of one image. They are all PNG files, and some of the images have transparent edges, and some semi-transparency within the image itself.
So basically, i need to be able to load these images on top of the other images, and still maintain the transparency.
Is this possible in VB08? This is one of the main reasons i moved to 08 from vb6, more things possible including multithreading.

I have a program I'm working on that, for one of the features, allows the user to drag an image from a picturebox, into the main form space, anywhere they want. [code]...
When trying to drag the image from the CurrentTilePicBox, the very moment I move the mouse while dragging the cursor becomes a circle with a cross and won't drag and drop into the new picturebox.

Is it possible to load an *.ico file onto a PictureBox ? I know I can use : PictureBox1.Image = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile("C:MyImage.jpg") but I'd like to use an icon . I have tried some other methods that read "Icon" , but I failed . Up to now the only thing I have thought is converting the file format form *.ico to *.jpg , but I think that's ridiculous ...

i know this is probally a really simple question but i have looked through my book and all my notes and googeled and couldn't find a answer that suites my needs.baisicly i have a combobox that gets loaded on form_load, what i want to do is load the appropriate picture into a picturebox when someone selects a item from the combobox. what i cant figure out is how to get the picture into the combobox using code. all the images are saved in my debug folder for the program. picturebox.image = picture.png this is what i asumed it would be but have tried with parenthises, quotes and both and it dosent work.
