I've got a fun little question for you all. I am designing a program that allows you to click on a picture to input data in certain areas. What I want to do it pretty allow someone to take a look at a picture. Click the add point tool, then select an area on the picture where it places a circle. I then want them to be able to go back to the circle and modify data if necessary

However my m8 will support me with any problems about the server, but he doesn't know how to fix this one in the client.The Sub have to create random sized circles, which are showed when u just hit some **** in space.It works fine in VB6, but in .NET i got a lot of ISSUES:
Sub DrawHitCircles(ByRef accuracy As Short)
Dim GO As Single

Im drawing a chart based on values from a database as an image in a picturebox. I can then add lines and circles etc in the picturebox, so as to highlight areas in the chart.
The next step I would like to do is to have temporary lines and circles, so when I move the mouse, the circle grows or shrinks and only when I release the mousebutton the circle is assigned to the chart picturebox.
I would like to draw a rectangle on a form, for example to mimic a steel beam that is 6 metres long.Within this rectangle, there may be 4 "openings" or circles that mimic a diameter of 600mm, so i need to draw 4 circles within the rectangle, to indicate a beam that has 4 openings. Other issues I need to cater for is that one of the circles may not be in the centre, it may be slightly raised.The user can change the length of the beam and the size of the openings so i'd like to refresh my drawing to keep in line with this.
View 3 RepliesI am working on a program to generate 50 circles starting with the smallest in the center of the form. The circles do not over lap and the appear to grow outward. Each circle has to be a random color. I have the code that generates what I need but all the circles are the same color. I was thinking about either using an array to hold each circle and color as to not assign the same color to all of them but not sure about putting a graphic in an array. I also think maybe a nested loop of some sort but was unable to figure one out.
Private Sub mainForm_click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Click
Dim penColor As New Pen(Color.FromArgb(Rnd() * 255, Rnd() * 255, Rnd() * 255, Rnd() * 255), 2)

This works to do what I need to get done, I just need each circle to have a random color as it is drawn.
The purpose of this (maybe there is a better method I don't know) is to so the user can say what order they want pieces of code to be compiled in. Sort of like a flow-chart. I want it somewhat animated, so, example being 3D circles the user drags and drops in the order they want things.
1. I need 4 circles inside of a form.
2. I need it so when the user selects the circle, they can drag and drop it in an order.
3. User clicks OK to finish their chosen order.
I haven't designed anything before that needed to check the borders of the form etc.
I am trying to randomly generate circles at the top of the screen, but it doesn't seem to be working. I want it to generate five balls, but it only generates one, and it's in the same place each time. [Code]
View 5 RepliesRight now I'm trying to make collide a lot of circles drawn during runtime. I have no problem making 1 circle collide with the form's bounds nor with another circle, however, if I draw like 25 circles in runtime, how can I make each one "move" and set the "collision properties"?
Can I make the circles move outside of the form? Let's say, the whole screen?
I am struggling with coding up a bit of logic.
I have a map which I have created zones which are basically rectangles which have the coordinates sorted
eg
Zone 1
Zone 2
Zone 3
I then want to create circles within the rectangles. So for example
Item1, Zone1
Item2, Zone1
Item3, Zone3
Item4, Zone2
Item5, Zone1
So i would like Item 1, 2 and 5 to show up as three circles and when the mouse cursor floats over them to show it. The item list is dynamic and so I am not sure how to get about with this?
This is a problem like the puzzle - "find minimum number of coins to completely cover a piece of paper".
The difference is:
in my case RADIUS of the coins is variable (but all coins should have same radius).
Real scenario:
1. I need to draw circular shapes on a rectangular image.
2. Number of circles (N) is CONSTANT/ User input
3. Size of image (S) is CONSTANT/ User input
4. The program should find the MINIMUM RADIUS (R) that is needed to draw N number of circles on an image of size S, so that, the image is completely hidden behind the circles.
This is NOT a puzzle/assignment that I'm trying to solve.This is part of a larger project that I'm working on.
I don't need any drawing code. I just need the code/algo to find the radius.
Question: I need to draw pictures as below in C#/VB.NET Draw ishihara-transformations (circles in circle without intersection)?
Note that my problem is NOT drawing circles in C#.
My problems is drawing them without much whitespace and without intersection.
My thought would be using "Orbits" and then draw the circles with center on the "orbit" lines. (with some orbit lines for bigger and some only for smaller circles)
draw individual pixels, without resorting to drawing a line and setting it's length to 1. Is there an actual ability to draw a pixel that is just 1 pixel big?
View 2 RepliesI have a little experience with drawing using GDI+ in VB.NET, but not so much with more complex shapes. All I ever used were lines and rectangles, and the occasional ellipse.I need to draw an 'arc' like this:I can specify the starting angle (0 in the picture), ending angle (angle from the horizontal (left side)), and the starting and ending radius, and I'm sure any other things I need can be calculated from that.The problem is that I have no clue which drawing function to use. Can I do it using FillPath, or FillClosedCurve, or? Of course, I could create a pie shape and then draw a second pie shape (slightly less radius) on top of that to make it appear like it's a single shape, but what if it needs to be 'transparent'? I don't want it to draw a solid shape on top.
View 17 RepliesI need some code to draw a resizable, draggable rectangular cursor (or selection box) on a picturebox. I found some excellent code (albeit rather old) that does just that, but on a form rather than a picturebox. I have tried converting the code - basically moving things to the picturebox events (Paint, MouseDown, MouseMove etc). It nearly works but leaves a trail behind it when you move or resize the cursor. In other words, the selection rectangle is not being erased before being drawn in the new position.
Is there some fundamental difference between drawing graphics on a form and drawing on a picturebox that would cause this behaviour? Something like, when you invalidate a form and cause a redraw it erases what you did last? If not, then I just need to dig a bit further and work out how the cursor is being erased from the previous position.
Here's the original code that works fine on a form:
Private DragRect As New RectangleF(20, 20, 100, 80)
Private Adornments(7) As RectangleF
Private MouseInRect As Boolean = False

View 12 RepliesI have my application to where you can load up an image and draw on it with the mouse left down and drag.Only problem is, if the form becomes the inactive one or is minimized/maximized the drawings go away until I scroll the image in the form (I put the redraw functionality in the picturebox.Paint event).How can I make the lines I draw stay permanently? I've put picturebox1.refresh in the minimizedchanged/maximizechanged and form.activated events and still nothing..Even tried the picturebox's resize event and nothing?

my assignment is to draw a graph within my VB form with a some variables I have. I was told by my boss that I should use Microsoft Chart Control 6.0, but I don't think it matters if it is in another software.I currently have a few variables, each with a lot of values, "Frequency", which is user entered from maximum to minimum, CH (channel) 1-4 which are given by a machine output I use at my company. My graph, is supposed to have the Frequency values in the X-Axis (horizontal) and the CH 1-4 values within a range of each other in the Y-Axis. Can anybody help? My code for extracting the data and getting the frequency is below. How I got most of it is thanks to Stanav, the thread is over here: url...It comes with 3 buttons (I have not put in the code for button 3), the 3rd button will be used for plotting the graph when clicked.
