I am trying to get a picture box (that has a loading image .gif) to be visible while the program reads a text file and change visible to false when all the information in the file.txt is displayed in the textbox.
Here is my
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
PictureBox1.Visible = True
If System.IO.File.Exists("C: est.txt") = True Then
Dim objreader As New System.IO.StreamReader("C: est.txt")
[Code] .....
How to get only the visible image on Picturebox the picture size is 320 x 240 and the picturebox is 240 x 240..i want to save the image in 240 x 240 pixels how?
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 placed several PictureBox Images of different colored dots(which represent lights) on an image of a Christmas Tree. I can make the lights randomly flash using a randomGenerator and a Select case statement. However, the code is very long. There are 67 lights on this tree and the code is 71 pages long. There has to be an easier way to do this. So far I have tried the following with two images of lights just to see if it would work and it does not work:
I have a window application develpoed in vs 2008, framework 3.5, in which i have put a button.. Now where i click that button the other text boxes are filled up with the data from database thru web service.. what i want is while all text boxes are being filled i want to show an animated loading gif image till data loading is completed in all the text boxes.. i have tried to use image picture box but while data is loading gif image is displyes but in static mode.. cant see animation... i think this is because data loading and animation both are done thru one UI thread..
I have written a VB2008 program in which I want to put graphics output in a PictureBox but keep the PictureBox hidden until a "Show Graphics" button is pressed at runtime. I have done this by setting the PictureBox's Visble property to False at design time and then adding a line in the Button Click code (before the main graphics code) to make .visible = true. Now when I press the button, the picture box becomes visible but stays blank. I have to press the Button a second time to get the graphics to show. It doesn't matter where in the Button code I place the PictureBox1.visible = true line, the result is the sdame. WHY ? Other VB Controls, eg RichTextBox will stand being made visible and then display output with only one click of the button, why is PictureBox different ?
I'm drawing lines directly on a PictureBox. My problem is that the visible surface of the PictureBox is smaller than expected, considering the Height and a Width properties.For example, there is a PictureBox with Height = 200 and Width = 400 points.When I draw a point with coordinates of (0,0) it is clearly visible in the topleft corner. But when I draw a point with coordinates of (399,199), it's not visible. Actually, the bottommost and rightmost point in the Picturebox seems to have the coordinates of (397,197).
What's the reason behind this? Is the PictureBox always two points smaller, or is it size-dependent? Or a wrong setting?
The basis of the program is that the user enters info into to text boxes then hits a button, when the button is clicked and all the parameters are met, the visible property of a rather large picture box becomes true. What I want to do is have the form start off small, just big enough to hold the labels, text boxes and buttons and then resize when the picture box is made visible.
I drew an image in a picturebox with the image height as picturebox height and image width as picturebox width. The image is placed somewhere on the center of the picturebox. My intention is to scale the image to fit to the picturebox.
Ive been programming in VB6 for years, i figured its time for an upgrade. Here's what im doing, and what the problem is:
Im loading a bunch of pictures on top of one image. They are all PNG files, and some of the images have transparent edges, and some semi-transparency within the image itself.
So basically, i need to be able to load these images on top of the other images, and still maintain the transparency.
Is this possible in VB08? This is one of the main reasons i moved to 08 from vb6, more things possible including multithreading.
I want to have an image on a form and only the image be visible. I can do this now with a square image and hide the form border and make the form the same size as the image. When i run this I get a form where only the image is visible, which is what I want, but what about odd shape image. I'm thinking of using a image of a football helmet and making a custom mp3 player. Where only the image of the helmet is visible, but I haven't been able to do that with odd shaped images.
I have a program I'm working on that, for one of the features, allows the user to drag an image from a picturebox, into the main form space, anywhere they want. [code]...
When trying to drag the image from the CurrentTilePicBox, the very moment I move the mouse while dragging the cursor becomes a circle with a cross and won't drag and drop into the new picturebox.
In my space invaders game, you press start, which creates 15 pictureboxes. When I hit the spacebar, a bullet moves to the top of the screen. What code would allow me to make a picturebox invisible that isn't named yet?
Okay, so I'm doing a card game and I'm trying to set that when picturebox (PictureBox1) is clicked, a random card from 13 cards will come visible. Problem is, that when i start the program and click the picturebox, the same card will always come visible. As you can see i've put a button (Button1) which will hide every card. If I press Button2, then Button1 and then the PictureBox1 it will show differend card, but the cards which come visible are always the same.
e.g i press PictureBox1 (which will make card visible), then Button1 (which will make PictureBox1 non-enabled) and then Button2 (which will hide every card and make PictureBox1 pressable). Lets say i pressed the PictureBox1 four times and i got cards: 9, 6, 7, 3, then I close the program, start it again and press PictureBox1 again 4 times and it will show the same cards (9, 6, 7, 3). How can this be done that it will not show the same cards always?
Here's my code... Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click End
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 ...
I have a picture box on SSRS. I want to load a picture to it, for exam from D:\Pictures\TV1.jpg (actually user will decide it by using OpenFileDialog)I have set the Source to external and in Value expression I tired
="D:\Pictures\TV1.jpg" and Also ="/<d:\pictures>\TV1.jpg"
but my picture box shows error picture in both cases.
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.
I have on a simple VB form:Label1Picturebox1FilesysytemwatcherThe watcher watches the camera but only the first picture load after that it gets an exeption and the program stops. I like to continu see what I shoot, but don't want to push buttons on the laptop after each shot. That reason the the watcher is placed. The time between shoot is enough for thw display being completed. The code:
Private MyImage As Bitmap Private Sub FileSystemWatcher1_Created(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.IO.FileSystemEventArgs) Handles FileSystemWatcher1.Created
I have a Picturebox and a two Buttons on my Form. On click of one of the buttons I want to change the image in the picture box at runtime.
This works fine when I give the location of the image (the full path ) on my computer - but then of course it will not work if I use the solution on a different computer .
So I have made a folder named "Pics" inside my application and added two images into it.
How do I get to this local folder in the following code?
Picturebox1.image = system.drawing.image.fromfile (??? ) instead of the usual, Picturebox1.image = system.drawing.image.fromfile ("C:UsersMyName My PicturesMyPicture.jpg" )
