Interface And Graphics :: Rotate A Graphic At A Specific Point?
Dec 9, 2010
I want to rotate a graphic at a point and I used the centerX and centerY to define the center of rotation.
Here is what I wrote:
Dim rotate_mirror as new RotateTransform(CSng(txtbx_rotate_by.text))
rotate_mirror.centerX = 5
rotate_mirror.centery = 55
blk_mirror.RenderTransform = rotate_mirror
blk_mirror is the graphic I want to rotate. Unfortunately, It does not work.

I'm trying to make a mini map for a 2d space shooter of mine; I've for the math down (I think) for when an item should appear on the mini map, but the problem is the graphic. As it stands, the graphic spills over the edge of the mini map graphic and disappears only when it's fully outside. I need it to crop the image, or at least not show it off the mini map graphic.I thought of using the sourcerect rectangle of the spritebatch.draw, but it seems to me that would only work for the right and bottom section, as I can adjust the size of the rectangle. I haven't tried this yet, but I will soon. Can the location of the source rectangle be changed in relation to the graphic that it is a part of being drawn so that I can use that to crop the left and top sides?

I have an application that downloads a .jpg snapshot from an IP camera, writes it to the server hard drive, attaches it to an email and sends it out to my users. Pretty simple until one guy had to mount his camera upside down and that's how he received the image via email.
It gets a bit annoying after a while, so he asked me if I could rotate it 180 degrees before attaching it to the email. I have absolutely no idea - hence my post. The app is on a hosted ASP.Net v3.5 web server.

I am struggling with VB.NET's graphics paradigm.There are several times in my code when I need to determine the width of some text. Under VB6 I would use the .textwidth() method pretty much any time I wished.Under VB.NET it appears that the paint event is the only place I can gain access to an initialized graphics object and from that the measurestring() method.

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? The snippet below shows defining some canvases and pens. But I'm not sure how to capture the mouse position when the mouse is over a particular picture box and how to paint the actual point at that location.[code]

I'm drawing polygons,lines,etc. and I have to have the points of each precise - up to 12 decimals. Since a Point only takes integer values, I'm not sure how to handle scaling. I have a working user control, but rounding the decimals so I can put them into points is causing incorrect calculations (area, ect.).

i have 2 polygons: 1 - A rectangle with a certain size defined with 4, 6 points or more (what ever becomes easier). 2 - A non-rectangular polygon (a quadrangular) what i need is that when given a certain point with inside the rectangle, i can translate that same point in the other polygon in the right position.

I'm just getting started, and it's as simple as that: I need guidance to draw a rectangle or place a dot or a point on Form1, in VB 2008 Express. I knew how in VB6 -- let's build on that.

If I try to draw a circle by using e.g.
Code:
e.Graphics.DrawEllipse(Pens.Red, 50.133, 100.321, 0.1, 0.1)
I will get an error message. I tried something like
Code:
Public ObjectPoint As PointF
Dim cpoint As New PointF()
cpoint.ObjectPoint = New PointF(startX, startY)
e.Graphics.DrawEllipse(Pens.Blue, cpoint.ObjectPoint, 0.4, 0.4)
but it didn't work for the location and the circle size. How to draw a circle(and rectangle) by using floating point numbers?

I used to program with Visual Basic 6, so I have alot of old programs that I'm updating, plus I'm learning the new VB2008 methods. I'm writing a program that replaces the old "BitBlit" function which is no longer supported by Visual Basic 2008. It involves three picture boxes, one holds the sprite bitmap, a second holds the mask (silhouette) of the sprite bitmap, and a third has a background image.

I'm working on a design project where I have to use a Graphical User Interface that contains a drag and drop form. It consists of having a window dropped on a wall. Both of them are images to scale. I would like to know what kind of code I would have to use to show the x and y coordinates of one of the points of my window when dragged so when I drop it, I'm dropping in it on the desired coordinate of the wall.

I was wondering if I could elicit some tips on how to procede with an interface design approach.That is. What is a good way to go about establishing a "work area" where one can have multiple "floating forms" in this area.Can you have a form which occupies the entire windows desk top and the other forms "float" in this space? the "floating" forms would need to interact with each other where pressing buttons etc on them would affect other forms on the "workspace") Or what would be a good way to start accomplishing that? Or is there a better way to get the same effect?

I'm trying to make a .dll that contains a lot of basic functionality that a program can use. Currently i am trying to use interfaces to make a lot of this functionallity independend of the program using it but i hit a snag. The Basic idea is that a programmer will create his own object using the interface discribed in my .DLL file. Then implements those functions as he likes. He can then instanciate a controller (found in the same DLL) and sends his custom object implementing the interface to that Controller. The controller can then be started and will take over all the work. I do not know what type of object is send to the controller and idealy i want to program it in such a fashion that i shouldn't care as long as the object send implements that interface.In code I am trying to achieve the following: (quite simplyfied)
.Dll:
Code:
Public Interface MyInterface '<----Decleration of the interfaceFunction GetData() As Integer
Function SetData(Data As Integer)
end interface
[code]....
this propperly. I know that the second i set the interface adaptor in the Controller VS comes nagging that it can not be converted to a "MyInterface" Class. Obviously i am doing something wrong. I can change the datatype that the controller expects to the "MyController" type but that would completely ruin the whole idea of flexibillity. I am hoping someone sees what i am trying to do and can point out where i made the thinking error.

So I decided to make my famous tile selector project, but instead of drawing in a form's graphics, do it inside a tabpage.Well, I managed to get it working, but it seems to... flicker.Normally, setting the form's DoubleBuffered property to True would help a lot there, but apparently, the tabpage has no such property.
When I invalidate the tabpage, I draw two images and fill one rectangle.Following past advice, those two images were created before, just once, and are stored in a variable so I don't create them every time I invalidate the tabpage.
