Loading A Picture Into A Picturebox Control?
May 4, 2011
i know this is probally a really simple question but i have looked through my book and all my notes and googeled and couldn't find a answer that suites my needs.baisicly i have a combobox that gets loaded on form_load, what i want to do is load the appropriate picture into a picturebox when someone selects a item from the combobox. what i cant figure out is how to get the picture into the combobox using code. all the images are saved in my debug folder for the program. picturebox.image = picture.png this is what i asumed it would be but have tried with parenthises, quotes and both and it dosent work.

My plan is to use a database to hold her recipes and create a user interface with search controls and different stuff, this way she will be able to add new recipe's and the program will have a much more modern feel to it.
My question is, I have added a picture box control to the new recipe form and when I click on the picture box I want the program to load "my pictures" and let me select a picture to load into the picture box, like you can on ebay when you are selling stuff, you can select your picture and it loads into the picture box.
As far as starting this off, I can add a double click event on the picture box control, this will trigger whatever code I need to use to load the open file dialog.
Can I use simaler code that I used for a text editor program I wrote for opening saved documents?

Problem is, i do have two forms. Form-1 is the parent and Form-2 is the child. Form-2 is having so many executable functions built in. Therefore when i am calling form-2 from form-1, always that takes few seconds to upload(although negligible).
Now I got a very nice ajex_loading.gif picture (moving) form Google and was thinking why not showing that pic in between my form loading process. Added PictureBox property. Telling it to show()...but still that is feeling shy at me

I have this url as an example: [URL] As one can see, it returns a nice picture--just what I need. Now, I need to put that "picture" inside a picture box or perhaps save it to a file. I would prefer the first as I believe it would be faster. Note the picture comes to us in a .gif format. I use vb 2005.

Well i have added the image files into my resources in my project and i was wondering if i could get more incite on loading the picture from the resuorces rather then the C: drive.

I am needing to cancel a picturebox from loading. However, I need to cancel is from loading using the imagelocation command.
Example.
Picturebox.imagelocation = "http://i1.social.s-msft.com/profile/u/avatar.jpg?displayname=lone+defiler&size=extralarge&version=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"

Is it possible to load an *.ico file onto a PictureBox ? I know I can use : PictureBox1.Image = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile("C:MyImage.jpg") but I'd like to use an icon . I have tried some other methods that read "Icon" , but I failed . Up to now the only thing I have thought is converting the file format form *.ico to *.jpg , but I think that's ridiculous ...

Is it possible to load an image into a picturebox when that picture box is clicked? What would the syntax look like? It's an image that I already dropped onto the form that I would like to load into that picturebox.

I want to make a program similar to this one: [URL]. I already have the ListBox ready. But how do I load the images?
The image name works like this:
-File1.package
-File1A.jpg
-File1B.jpg
So the .package is removed and A.jpg or B.jpg is added.

I currently have 4 images that I need to load into a picture box at different times, it works fine for me but if I send it to a friend it wont work because the file path is different. I use this at the moment:
If filmType = "Jumper" Then
img = "E:TheatreBookinginimages"
picFilms.Load(img)
lblFilmInfo.Text = ("A genetic anomaly allows a young man to teleport himself anywhere.")
lblFilmInfoTwo.Text = ("This gift leads him into a war that has existed for centuries.")
End If

I have a picture box on my form along with a combo box with a number of different options. So anyway when a combo box item is selected I want it to look in the dataset for the selected item's row and pick out the image to load and then using an IF statement it sets the image (or should).
Dim RaceImg As String = DS.Tables("tblRaces").Rows(ID).Item("RaceImg")
If RaceImg = "AusGP" Then
GP_Picture.Image = Image.FromFile("./Track Images/AusGP.png")
ElseIf RaceImg = "MalGP" Then
GP_Picture.Image = Image.FromFile("./Track Images/MalGP.png")
End If
I have tried a number of different ways to get this working, I have tried them in the resources for the program and also tried the following code
GP_Picture.Image = "./Track Images/AusGP.png"
It seems like the picture box isn't redrawing or something? Just to add it will load the first image which is the AusGP because thats the first option in the combo box, after that none of the others will load.

I'm sure there are similar threads, but I've search and tried most things and still can't find something that works.
I am testing a small project, in the attempt to find the solution for a much bigger application. So, here's the deal. I'm using VB 2005 and MSSQL 2005 (both are Express editions). I've stored the names to some images in the database.
When I use PictureBox1.image = My.Resources.<filename>
and build the application, it works and properly displays the image. Now, what I'm really trying to do is extract an image names from the database and assign it to a variable, this is what I have.
Dim EqTest As New Test1DataSet.EqTestDataTable
Dim EqTestAdapter As New Test1DataSetTableAdapters.EqTestTableAdapter
EqTestAdapter.Fill(EqTest)
[Code]....
I've used the messagebox for testing so that I can see what the value of "Trythis" is, and the string is "My.Resources.<filename>", which is the correct string, but I can't use that string in the picturebox to display the image, because I get an error "Value of Type String can not be converted to System.Drawing.Image".

Just want to know the best method to load a picture in a picture box dynamically. As part of my development, I was supposed to load 4 pictures from network to 4 picturebox controls.
For which, I found, 2 methods.
1. Picturebox1.Image=new bitmap("C:\test.jpg")
(or)
2. Piturebox1.ImageLocation="C:\test.jpg"
Which one is more suitable interms of performance.

I have a 4 pictureboxes for a database I made but having a problem with loading images in to the picturebox. On my form I have a picturebox, 1 button, 1 textbox, and 1 openfiledialog.
My button click event code
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
TextBox1.Text = OpenFileDialog1.FileName
Pic1PictureBox.Image = Image.FromFile(TextBox1.Text)
End Sub
I can add pics but if I don't select any image (just close the dialogbox) I get an error and not sure what to do ..or what to add. Is there any code to tell it to just close..

I need to plot some analog values read from the serial port.I plot them in a picturebox starting from left. When I reach the end of the control at the right side I shift all values to the left of a point and I plot the new point at the right, (I have some flickering but it could be acceptable). This is my plotting control.My problem is that I have to clear the control (picturebox) in order to plot the shifted graph, but the method Clear of the Graphics class clears everything inside the picturebox, even my grid.How can i make always visible a grid "in" my picturebox?
1.a transparent image with a grid over the PB? (the clear method cannot remove it)
2.an image with a grid below the picturebox that must be with a transparent background to make visible the grid?
3.multiple layers on the same picturebox?
