Interface And Graphics :: VB2010: Picturebox Drawing Disappears?
May 26, 2012
Problem1: I have a picturebox on a form. I have also managed to draw several PNG files with transparency onto the picturebox (see below). However, If I move the form outside the border and move it back, the image is gone. My source so far:
Dim k1 As New Bitmap(My.Resources.image1)
Dim k2 As New Bitmap(My.Resources.image2)
Dim drawMe As Graphics = PictureBox1.CreateGraphics
Dim bgcolor As Color = Color.FromArgb(128, 128, 128)
drawMe.Clear(bgcolor)
[Code]...

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?

This is VB 2008, under Vista. I can't seem to change the background color of a button without the gradient disappearing.Strangely enough, you can even set the background color to itself and the gradient disappears. How do you keep the gradient but change the color?
Here's an example:
Code:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Button1.BackColor = Button1.BackColor ' This should do nothing!

drawing text on a window which is not the current form's window.I remember doing this in Win32 api with getwindowdc(handle) to obtain a DC for the Window, then textout() on the DC.

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]

IGraphics 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.

I'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.

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.

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?

I would like to build a line chart which can redraw or change during a period of time with dynamic data. So that the x, y axis will change if out of range. The graph may be somehow similar to Matlab. I am using vs2005.

I created an application in VS2005 that draws text with a custom font and color. The images look great from my XP machine. But from another machine running Windows Vista, the graphics are messed up. It seems that the transparencies inherit the default black background so there's this gray'ish/black haze around the text...

I'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?

I've problem with clearing all the drawings I've created in my PictureBox. In fact I've created animation which stops after certain time and remains on the screen. The animation is created/painted with collection of about 25 TextBoxes - input of a user. Now I've added a button which clears all that info in TextBoxes and also should clear PictureBox -ictureBox.Refresh(). The problem is when I add new info in 25 TextBoxes nothing appears in PictureBox and I can't start an animation. Wondering why...

I managed to combine two .png images into one, and then display the result in a pictureBox image.However, the pictureBox seems to scale up my image! Makes it bigger!The pictureBox size is 96x128. The two images I have combined are 96x128. The pictureBox's SizeMode is set to "Normal"I have noticed that even though the pictureBox's image seems to be zoomed, it is cut to keep the 96x128 rect. But I don't want it to be zoomed...

I've been searching for days. I can't find anything that I think is going to work. I've probably read the answer and skipped it because I don't get it. I'm new. I've researched multithreading, sub routines and webbrowser. The webbrowser thing doesn't seem professional to me.
All I want is the animation to be smooth when it's displayed and to have it integrated into the app so it's not called from the local drive.The animated gif is in PictureBox3. Please point me in the right direction. I really don't want to use a static image.
