How To Check For Point Within Polygon
Nov 27, 2010If I have some polygon lat lon coordinates stored in sqlserver db. how would I query it to see if a point was in contained within a polygon?

View 2 RepliesI'm working on a small freeware application in Visual Studio 2008 Standard that will match geographic data to a geographic position. For this I need some mathemathical functions and one of them is how to detect if a point is inside a polygon. There's a great solution for this from the Microsoft team at: [URL]
but it is in a different programming language that I do not know anything about. How can I use these functions in my program? I'm afraid that if I try to rewrite them in Visual Basic I'll make mistakes that I can't detect. To be complete, I'm not using screen graphics so I really need a mathemathical solution.
how do you draw or place a polygon/line within another polygon e.g. a circle within a triangle.

View 1 RepliesI want to check if two directories are pointing to the same place. Of course string based compare can be done easy but I also want to check for the situation in which a mapping points to the same location. Hence if m:dataapplicApicturesjpg n:applicApicturesjpg point to the same location it must be flagged. I have already searched I know there is something like GetFileInformationByHandle but I don't want to create a file, so I have not got a handle.

View 2 RepliesI 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 2 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.

how can i calculate the 13 points on the polygon (see image)?
the 2 points either side of the centre points
are +/- width or height * 0.2761423749154

the polygon won't always be a regular rectangle as it is in the image

I'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

I have a collection of latitudes and longitudes and I'll be grabbing sets of these and want to draw a polygon based on them.The datasets won't be the outline so will need an algorithm to establish which ones make up the outline of a polygon containing all the latitudes and longitudes supplied. This polygon needs to be flexible so the polygon can be concave if the points dictate that.
My code below produces a horrible looking polygon. As explain in my first post I want to create a nice concave or convex polygon based on the latlng's provided.Just need a way of plotting the outer latlngs.

I'm making a game for a school project We've created a character that moves around the screen and creates blocks behind him as he moves around.We want to make it so that when the character moves from one edge of the screen to another, it fills the screen. So in order to do this we have a Points array that stores every point the character touches on his way to a wall.We then fill the Points array with "formsurface.fillPolygon(Points)"Now I'm wondering is there anyway we can retrieve all the points that are WITHIN or INSIDE the Points array we made? ( remember the points array simply contains the outline or the path the character created, we're filling inside that outline)

I'm trying to write a simple game ui, it is grid/tile based, and i have the grid built using grid column and row definitions and I'm successfully placing objects in various grid locations. I am currently stuck as trying to build the player object. I want a single object reference to represent the various components of the players piece.
Currently I am using a polygon to represent the piece on the grid. Eventually I want to replace this with images or something. I want to add in properties for what weapon and armor it has equipped I want properties for health
Essentially in code i want something like this
dim player1 as new playerobject
player1.polygon.points = 0,0 60,30 0,60
player1.health = 100
[Code]....
I can instantiate all this as separate variables etc, but I'd like to have a singular reference that contains all the variables, properties, objects, controls etc.
I'm using vb .net in vs 2010 (and no, I'm not looking to write in something else)

I've created a polygon shape and filled which fills blue on startup.Upon toggling a check box it should be filled yellow.It doesn't go yellow (unless i step through in debugging).

I am writing a program wherein the user draws shapes by clicking a button for the desired shape and then clicking on points on the drawing area. I cannot figure out how to store four clicked points to create a foursided polygon. I read many articles that say use the "mousedown" command and store points in a list, I have tried but it's not working for me. To summarize, I need the user to click the polygon button, go to the drawing area, click four points and have a foursided polygon created.

View 1 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.

Dim H As Integer
Dim Num As Integer
