I am currently working on a project on Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition, in which I need to move an image across the form from one end to the other without moving it in a straight line. I want to try and randomize the image while it moves in a general direction, but I am not sure how. I also am trying to get four images to do this, from top to bottom, bottom up, left to right, and right to left.

I've been going at this for quite a few hours now and I still can't get it to work. I have a gif image in my bin>debug folder and I would like it to move across the screen when I click a button.[code]...
View 1 RepliesHow do you move a forms backgroundimage? Like this
picturebox1.left -=1
Is there a way to do this for a forms backgroundimage?
I have made a borderless form, but i still wish to be able to drag it around the screen.
But i dont have a normal background, ive got an image that covers it. I wish to be able to drag this overlaying image around the screen. Ive found code examples that allow you to drag the form, but you have to acctually drag the form.... Not the image (i couldn't adapt any of them)
so my goal is to get a picturebox to move in random directions and smoothly (like a character moving straight in a game) without using thread.sleep and me.refresh (and also without animation atm). Would anyone be able to guide me on how to accomplish this?The reason I want to do this is because when I need to use like 3 threads to move 3 different things around smoothly my computer slows down too much.here's my code now without all the other subs used to place the random code in it's own thread. There's a lot of other code too so I can't really post the entire thing:
Private Sub random_movements(ByVal e As Integer, ByVal speed As Integer, ByVal ctrl As Control)
Dim location_x As Integer = ctrl.Location.X

I am going to create a windows form and add a push button (pretty simple right?) I want the push button to randomly cycle through about 10 pictures and display the randomly selected picture.
A few problems I am facing, 1) I do not know how to do do "randomization" in VB.Net and 2) I do not know how VB.Net would handle displaying an image, would it display on the form i am building or would it display in the default photo viewer for Windows?
I have two images on my VB pictureBox one of it is randomly generated on the picBox(to any location) and the other is a normal image that can move around the picBox area using left right up and down buttons. The problem is that when ever the normal picture gets to the random one, it goes under the random picture and the task is to restrict the normal picture from going into the walls of the random one. when it gets to the wall, top, bottom left and right, it should stop moving.
View 2 Repliesim trying to make a single image appear randomly at any given time i have tryed to figure out the code for this my self however i have had no success any ideas

EndIf
I am using Visual Basic 2008.I am trying to code a simple "show and hide" game where pictures are generated behind a buttonThese pictures need to be generated randomly from my resources. i have got as far as declaring the random number, but am having problems with using a image as avairible which can then be used in a picture box. i have tried "image" but i am having no luck!

Another thing I plan to achieve is also a random number generator that will display a number on a ball that rolls on to the screen. So the displaying of a number will be timed to show up when the ball comes in focus. I have some code that I have used previously to generate a number, but I wanna get the generated number to show in time with the ball rolling up.What are some wait commands to use in vb .net? This is the code I am using to randomly generate a number.

Dim r As New Random
TextBox1.Text = r.Next(0, 150)

I have a problem :
In VB.NET.
Window Application :
I have a form..in that form..there are four buttons and an image (using picBox). That buttons named as "Up", "Down", "Left", "Right".How to move the image by using the button. For example : If I click "Up" button, the image will move upward and so on..
I'm trying to copy/move (whichever works in the end) a picture from my resources in my program, to the startup path.
However, when i try it, it tells me that the file could not be found.
System.IO.File.Copy(My.Resources.Image, PATH, False)That will turn up with an error telling me that the value of type Bitmap cannot be converted to string. So i figured i would try to put a .ToString behind it, and then i'll get the File Not Found error.
I using vb6.0.I want to load a image into a picture box and resize it in runtime through mouse.Image type is jpg or png.my logic is,
1. load image[jpg or png ] into picture box and draw a rectangle using rectangle API, according to image size.
2. resize rectangle through mouse and according to the size of rectangle change size of image.
It is very easy to move your cursor to a specific coordinate but my question here is how do you move your cursor to an image? Now what this would involve doing is importing an image so the program understands it, then finding that image on your screen (maybe through RGB colors). How exactly do you do this? What is the procedure?
Say I want to import this image: Now I want the program to find that image on the screen (THE START BUTTON) and then move my cursor on it.
so cursor.position = new point(the image)
I am making a VB.NET application linked to a database. when you press the button 'generate' it is writes (fairly simple) webpages to a folder in your destkop. what I tried was adding a build-in uploader to my website, but my host didn't supported that. ok, not that big of a deal, and completely out of context but now let's get to the core of my problem;
I wanted to have an image in the resources (none made yet) and have it copied out the resources and placed along with the webpages (to use it as background image). I have tried a lot (clearly not everything or it would work) but I just don't manage to solve this. the problem is I need to be able to do this, since I want to have my .accdb in the resources to, so that it copies out when used an writes (an updated version) back to the resources and deletes the external file. but I never seem to manage to do this. I tried to read,write and other things it with IO and everything, just getting the message that it cannot be read. but I never seem to find how to copy/move it outside the program. the code I am using now looks like this:
Imports System.Reflection
Imports System.IO 'this is for the writing of the .HTML files
Imports System
Public Class webGenerator
