I am drawing a circle, of let's say 300 pixels diameter. I want to draw a triangle, with the top of it being at New Point(diameter / 2, 0). How could I get the other 2 points of the triangle? If possible, how could i get the 3 points of a triangle rotated by x degrees?
View 1 RepliesI'm designing an application for a class where the user inputs three values and the program tells them whether it is a right triangle, equilateral triangle, or neither.I'm trying to figure out how to test for a right/equilateral triangle in my get accessor....

View 1 RepliesI am trying to draw a circle on the visual basic console. I have been told that the console is not made for this but i have to use it.
What I want to do is a circle with:
Centre (40,20)
Radius = 10
I know from basic trig that the following will give me the points on the circle:
x= (10 x CosA)+40
y=(10 x SinA) +20
(A) being an angle in radians.
Then combine x & y that will give me a point on the circle.
I want to use the '' Sets the cursor position
Console.SetCursorPosition(x, y)
Console.Write(".") "
To print a point(.) on the given position from the formulas above.
Now heres my question how do I get Visual Basic too calculate:
x= (10 x CosA)+40
y=(10 x SinA) +20
360 times i.e 0rad-2Pirad and then pass the x & y [(x,y)] point to my cursor position code so that a '.' is printed at that position. I.e I will end up with a circle made out of 360 '.'
I would asume that a loop is used and also an array to store the 360 Pi values. I'm finding it extremely hard to even get Vb to calculate the Cos of an angle.

I have several picture boxes on a form (frmMain).My question is, how do I paint a point on a particular picture box at the location specified by the coordinates of the current mouse position?

View 3 RepliesIGraphics and drawing and invalidating thing.I have improved, that I can tell. I won't explain everything, so here's the essential:Technically, my application will let you draw a rectangle on the form. You click, drag, and boom, a red rectangle is there. This rectangle will disappear when you start drawing another.I got that working.But my problem is performance. You see, obviously I have to update, invalidate and paint my rectangle every time the mouse moves while it is in "drawing mode". I do that every time the mouse's position changes.And that is quite a big deal. Every time the mouse's position changes? That's a lot of invalidations and redraws for a decently-sized rectangle!I thought of skipping some mouse movement, like only update every 5 coordinates moved or something. But that would render my goal quite inaccurate.I already invalidate only the regions necessary, that I can tell.
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to make a custom combobox from scratch that multiple instances will share the listbox that holds the data on. I'm trying to draw the button face manually using GraphicsPaths and pens and brushes, but I'm having a few issues with it:
1. How do you draw that down arrow glyph in a way that doesn't look like a two-year-old sneezed on it? I'm having problems with the shape looking like the traditional one.
2. How do you position the listbox that contains the data in such a way that isn't bound by the containing form's render window?
3. I've tried to make the background look different when it has focus, but the OnPaint seems to think it always has focus and always makes the background the "focused control" background.

View 1 RepliesI'm having a problem with the graphics portion of vb.net. As a school assignment, we are making "turtle graphics" applications. I have mine working perfectly, the problem that we are having (not even the teacher can fix it) is that when the window gets sent the command to be painted (ie minimized and maximized) the drawings in the picturebox I am using are completely erased. I am looking for a way to prevent this from happening. I have been trying to store the image as a bitmap in memory, which does not work. Is there another way to draw to a bitmap/image in memory and then output that to a picturebox?

Problem drawing dotted path lines, with even dots along the path line.I want to draw a path line that can be any shape (square, round, outline etc), and along this path line I want even dots to appear.
I also want to be able to resize the shape (as in the example attached)This is very easy to do using "DrawPath" and defining points for the path and using a pen defined as dots.The problem I have is I want the dots to be evenly placed along the path, on any shape or size I draw.In the example I have created, I create a square with 4 points and draw a dotted path.There are 2 buttons that allows me to resize the square (larger or smaller) this helps show the problem more clearly.
The path starts at the top left corner and finishes back at the top left corner, the dots are evenly placed along the path, except the final dots at the end of the path. (Sometimes the dots are even and other times they are not even).The shapes I want to draw can be any size and any shape, but I have used a square in this example to show the problem I have. point me in the direction I need to go that allows me to draw the dots and give the impression that they are even all along the path, for all shapes and sizes.
In the pictures below if you change the size of the shape, one will have even looking dots, the other will not.
