I have an app that connects to a remote database.The connection to the database is triggered by the form load event of the main start up form which prompts the user for user name and a password.Here is my problem:Sometimes it takes a number of seconds for the database connection to be established after the user has double clicked the desktop icon. this means that during this period it appears that no action is taking place until the startup form becomes visible.Some impatient users assume that nothing is happening and double click the icon again.What I want to do is to have a graphic image or something pop up on the screen immediately when the program starts that displays something like 'Connecting To Database, please be patient"

View 1 RepliesHow can i load the original image when the tumbnail version of the image has been clicked? Im using ASP.NET in combinaton with javascript.
The original images are big, so they have been scaled on server side. This makes the site load faster. But somehow, both versions (original and tumbnail) of the images are being downloaded.
I'm trying to download only the tumbnail version of the image. And when the user clicks on the image, i want to show the original image.
First problem im having is that My image gets grabbed from the website but then it doesnt automatically load i have to click the PictureBox[code]...

I'd need to show an image in fullscreen mode on my application when a music-file is being played. Is it possible to define a form and an image (picturebox) to be shown as a maximum size on the screen?One thing that makes it even more interesting is that I'd need to show it as a fullscreen mode on a external screen.
I can move the form to external screen like this:
Form3.SetBounds(2000, 112, Form3.Bounds.Width, Form3.Bounds.Height)
I have a form that contain an big image and an small image.The small image will be showed on top of the big image. Both images are in .gif format and the small image background is transparent.I set the picturebox's backcolor for small image to transparent, but I only get the backcolor of the form in stead of the big image.Is there anyway to see the big image at the transparent area of small image?

I can't remember exactly if this is possible or not but what I am attempting I would think should theoretically be possible. I know it is possible in WPF but the company I am working for doesn't want to make the transition just yet. Basically what I want is to use a background image on a form for the background and I have a docked control on the right and left. I have set the background on both of these docked controls to transparent however it is showing the back color rather than the background image. I tried, rather than setting the background image property, to override the onpaintbackground and onpaint events and use e.graphics.draw(picture, me.clientrectangle) but it still seems to just pick up the backcolor as the true transparent background so I'm wondering if it's possible to get it to show the background image through the control rather than the backcolor of the form?

In this program you should read text from a file one character at a time instead of one line at a time. If <tt>sr</tt> is an IO.StreamReader, then <tt>sr.Read()</tt> will return an integer that is the value of the next character in the file. Use <tt>Read</tt> instead of <tt>ReadLine</tt> in this program.You can check whether a file exists by using the code <tt>IO.File.Exists(filename )</tt> . The function will return a Boolean value (True if the file exists but False if not).
You can check whether a string ends with a specified pattern by using the <tt>EndsWidth(pattern )</tt> function. For example, if <tt>s</tt> is a String, then <tt>s.EndsWidth(".txt")</tt> will return a Boolean value (True if <tt>s</tt> ends with the pattern but False otherwise).In a string, <tt>IndexOf(pattern )</tt> gives the first position where the pattern exists, but <tt>LastIndexOf</tt> gives the very last position where the pattern exists.The code <tt>s = Chr(i)</tt> converts the Integer <tt>i</tt> into a character and assigns the character to the string <tt>s</tt> .

This is for my really advanced game maker. Which is really working well. But when I went to remake the game player and speed it up, I quit painting the map on the form and the char. So my idea now is the make a picturebox on the form contain the map image and then make another picturebox on top of that one. Now the first pictreubox contrains controls the user created, very useful thats why I switched to a picturebox. And the second one contains the char,anyway, The one that contains the char needs to be able to show the controls behind it, or my game maker wont work. The char image its self is transparent but I need to make that picturebox show all the controls behind it so that if that picturebox moves onto a user control they can still see it beneath the char.
View 1 RepliesI know this may sound really stupid, however, I really do not know. Though I have been programming with VB2005 for about the last 4 years or so, I have never used toolstrip at all. Just simply never has a need to, until now. So, I tried it by simply clicking it in the toolbox, which is simple enough, and choose the toolstrip button for the toolstrip as well. I change the button image to the image I have and want, which seems to be piece of cake operation. Everything looks good in design time. However, when I ran the program, I have the toolstrip simply look blank (no show of the button or the image at all)! The button was there alright, as when I clicked it, it responded. However, it just simply not visible at all, nor the image. When I ran my mouse over it, it did change color (which I guess indicate it is there), but no image either.

The image is bigger thant the picturebox, how can I resize the image to fit the picturebox?
What I can do: Display an image (e.g. a bitmap) by loading it into a control (e.g. picture box), showing that picture box (visible equals true / refresh) and then hiding it (visible equals false / refresh).The onset of the image onto the screen is not necessarily synchronized with the raster scan (needs to run on CRT monitor) meaning the lower portion of the image may appear one (partial) frame before the upper portion. Though I can specify (roughly) how long the image is on the screen I cannot specify the number of frames and there is enough variability in the timing that I will not get the same number of frames every time.
What I'd like to do: I'd like to be able to have my display wait until the beginning of the next frame before showing my image. I'd also like to tell it exactly how many frames to show the image before removing it. Ideally I'd like to be able to cue up multiple images to be shown for one frame each in order (animation).
I've found a lot of information on the web about DirectX but the few tutorials I've tried are overly complicated for my needs and invariably fail to start for unspecified reasons.I don't need 3D.What I want to display would work just fine in a picture box if the timing were cleaner and predictable.
I can't tell why when my picture box is to show an image the picture box moves altogether, I feel like it might be moving toward the checkbox which I have controlling the visibility of my picture box. That check box doesn't work as it is supposed to either. Everything else works just fine.
