View 1 RepliesVS 2010 - Add Support For Unrecognized Files To OpenFileDialog?
Mar 21, 2011I am working on a project which use files with a .HRZ extension. These are image files with a simple red, green, blue, red, green, blue structure. There is no header of any kind. I know how to display these files in a picturebox or convert them to a bitmap, but of course Windows 7 does NOT know what they are, so just shows a blank icon in the OpenFileDialog. How easy would it be for me to add support for this file format to Windows and/or the OpenFileDialog so I can show a thumbnail of each file? I can create my own file browser but I would really like to use the OpenFileDialog if at all possible.

Jun 6, 2012First part of a huge block will contain some text. That block is not always visible. it will be visible when the user is inputing a control. It is drawn in a bitmap image which will later be a part of the final image of the form.The second part consist of several small bitmap images most probably will contain a letter. These images will not change but there position will keep changing by time. These images will be free to move even beneath the huge block (If visible).I used a timer with 1 sec. interval to redraw form, but when the block is visible it keeps flickering because the timer clear the form and redraw the block.
I tried to use different container for the block like the PictureBox but when the small image goes beneath the block it just disappear.The block color code is "Color.FromArgb(100, Color.Black)" I tried lower Alpha components and that didn't make any difference.My explanation is that the background of the picturebox is not transparent. If I'm right how to make the picture box transparent?

Sep 16, 2010I have a media gallery type project I'm working on, but I want to enhance it by creating animated thumbnails to "preview" the media. I have already created code to extract 10 incremented images from a pretty much any video format. Now that I have my images, I thought the most efficient way to animate them would be through a GIF. Once you have imported media to a library it will automatically generate the images, and hopefully create the gif thumbnail I'm looking for. How to generate animated GIFs in vb2010?
View 1 RepliesCreate An Animated Icon To Go In The SysTray?
Oct 10, 2011Using VB2010. I want to create an animated icon to go in the SysTray, and I have created all the individual frames as .ico files. Now, I don't like hard coding file names in the code, so I created an ImageList with the .ico files, which I then want to walk through using a Timer. Now, apparently NotifyIcon doesn't accept ImageLists? I get errors when I try to use it. I searched the web, and saw a tip to instead pass the handle of the ImageList to NotifyIcon. So I did this in the timer:
Static Index As Integer = -1
Dim IconHandle As IntPtr

Picturebox Animated Gifs Causes Exception?
Mar 31, 2011I wrote a little utility that compares pictures in a directory against each other and will display them side by side in two pictureboxes so the user can weed out duplicates. Anyway, seemed to be working fine until I started testing a directory that had animated gifs in it. The gifs will start playing in the form's pictureboxes, but at random (with no action taken by user) one of them will crash and give the attached error script. The other gif will continue running, but the offending picturebox will have the unrecoverable red "x", reloading or changing images does nothing after that point for that picturebox. As part of the apparent randomness, it will happen on either picturebox and the amount of time before it happens varies and does not seem to correlate to anything. For additional confusion, I have also seen where there is no error thrown, but both picturesboxes will suddenly go to the red x in the middle of a gif.
See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.
