View 1 RepliesRandom Wallpaper Changer Using Tagged Images?
Jan 11, 2009I wish to make a wallpaper changer that can select a random wallpaper from a given directory and sub directories. I'm not asking for code at this point, I'd like a reality check to see how hard this could be. I'm still quite a newbie at VB so I just wanna check if what I'm thinking process wise would work.The basic thing I'd like to do is have it pick one picture out of a given dir and sub dirs. Then set it as the wallpaper. I'd like it to be resized if larger than the desktops resolution to fit inside it, no stretching cropping or stuff.
That's the simple things I'd like it to do. Unfortunately I have dual monitors so it'd have to pick two wallpapers, resize each one independently, stick them together, and then set the wallpaper. I'd also like to make a kind of simple database which would have the name of each pic and two values with it. I'd like a value to mark if it's been used already which would be reset when all pictures have been used. The second would be a simple tag. This way i could have all car wallpapers listed as tag 1 and all non-car wallpapers listed as tag 2. Then I could chose whether to use all or only tagged wallpapers.

Aug 25, 2011I am having in VB.NET 2010. I am writing an app to change the background wallpaper kinda a little project I am making for my wife's grandma. It is a multiple wallpaper changer to change the wallpaper based on a list of images she adds. Anyways! I have everything setup except the fact that it doesn't change the wallpaper...
This code here:
Public Declare Auto Function SystemParametersInfo Lib "user32.dll" (ByVal uAction As Integer, _
ByVal uParam As Integer, _
ByVal lpvParam As String, _
[CODE]...
Will NOT change the wallpaper but the same code works in VB6 I tried it because I have made something like it before in VB6 but it was a game that changed the wallpaper. Anyways, using the above code in VB6 works(well with a change to the SystemParametersInfo declare to work within VB6. But it doesn't work in VB.NET. I have NO IDEA why everything gets set in the registry just fine from VB.NET but I just cannot seem to get it to update the wallpaper...

Way To Refresh Desktop Wallpaper
Feb 14, 2011I have a logon script which changes the desktop brackground picture in the registry. The only problem is this change isn't applied until the user logs off and on again. I currently use a small program which uses SHChangeNotify(&H8000000, &H1000, 0, 0) but this will not refresh the wallpaper. I was also hoping this would refresh the Taskbar because I change a registry setting which removes a toolbar.

Forms :: Expand From One Size To Another Using A Slider Animation
Apr 25, 2010I am trying to make a form expand from one size to another using a slider animation.
The problem is when I run it the form resizes but without the animation. I'm not sure how to use the animation when resizing the form. It works if the form is a set size and then I run the animation.
The form is borderless and starts out with a width of 11 and I want the final width to be 285.
The resize and animation are triggered by clicking on the form.
Here is the code.
Private Sub Form3_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Click
Me.Width = mintformmaxwidth
