I'm making a tileset creator and everything is working fine so far except previewing a tile. The way it works now is it gets the image from a picturebox and calls the following code when scrolling the mousewheel. It functions fine but there is a border appearing between the tiles and I can't figure out why. The source image is 32x32 in size. Most likely it is the graphics class not measuring in pixels or something.
Public Sub ResizePreview(ByVal dSize As Drawing.Size)
Dim bm As New Bitmap(TileImage.Image)
Dim pTile As New Bitmap(dSize.Width, dSize.Height,
I have a picturebox and I have a image with a blue and red square. When I click a button it puts that image into the picturebox as background image. The background image property is set to tile. But when I click on my form to draw the image to it, it just draws the original not the one that has the tile effect from the picturebox. Is there a way i can do this to keep the tile effect?
I am trying to resize a form1's background image and make its "BackgroundImageLayout = ImageLayout.Center" from form2 but it keeps disappearing of the screen as it resizes.
Private Sub btnResize_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnResize.Click Dim nNewWidth As Double = 0 nNewWidth = Double.Parse(Me.Label5.Text) / 100
I have an image that stretches to the size of my form so if the user resizes the form, the image resizes aswell. All works great apart from the constant flickering during the resize of the image.
I am trying to create a simple VB 2008 application with a resizable form that has a transparent background. Seems easy enough to do, but if I do nothing more than create a new Windows form project with one form, set the transparency key on the form to a colour, and then set the background to the same colour, and then run it, after about 3-5 resize operations, I cannot resize the form anymore, except from the top, if even then. No errors, just odd behaviour.
I'm using this code to set a picture as the desktop background: Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click SetDesktopWallpaper("C:\image.jpg") End Sub Private Shared Sub SetDesktopWallpaper(ByVal fileName As String) [Code] ..... It works well, except the wallpaper is always centered. How can I have the ability to choose Fill, tile or center with separate buttons?
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?
For the resize I have a form to reduce and expend image code: Dim source As New Bitmap(Form1.PictureBox1.Image) Dim target As New Bitmap(Size.Width, Size.Height, PixelFormat.Format32bppRgb) Using graphics As Graphics = graphics.FromImage(target) graphics.DrawImage(source, New Size(16, 16)) End Using As far as I know it resizes but when I save I get the default icon image instead of whats in the picture box?
im am making a vb 2010 tile egine and i was wondering how to get place a tile on mouse click and allign it to a 50x50 tile grid, and wonder how i can sav this to a .txt file from a array of thew tiles and question ask.
I have a 18kb 1024 x768 jpeg image that is set as background image of my form. The problem is the form now lags like crazy. How can I eliminate the lag?

i have a function which grabs images from urls, using this function:
Public Function webDownloadImage(ByVal Url As String, Optional ByVal saveFile As Boolean = False, Optional ByVal location As String = "C:") As Image Dim webClient As New System.Net.WebClient Dim bytes() As Byte = webClient.DownloadData(Url)
[code]....
All the examples ive found so far point at using imagemagik or another add in.
I added an image as the background image for a form in VB.net. When I run the program, after approx. 5-6 seconds, the image partially overlays itself, as in an offset overlay of the underlying image. I never had this problem in VB6, but I did have it the other time I used a background image on a form in VB.Net.
how i can refresh my main form background image once a user picks a different image as the background.I have 2 forms namely Form1 (main form) and form2 from where the user can select the image he or she would like to set as the background image of form1.But the problem is that after selecting the image file from form2,when form1 is opened the background image doesnt change and remains the same as before.Only when the user ends the program and re-runs it again the image changes.
Basically I'm trying to make a layout change on a form if a link label is pressed. My main form I want this on has a "default" layout with a background image in place. What I want to do is, name the link label "Plain Layout". When the link label is clicked, remove or "hide" the background image and replace it with the background color of "control". After this action is performed, I need the text to change back to "Default Layout" and "show" the image.
I have a program that was created in VB6. I converted it to vb 2008. In the program there is a picture box that is pretty small. I had a command that would resize the picture box after importing an image. It no longer works.
I am already familliar with applying an image to a form background. My application has many in it, but I want to give the user the option of browsing for an image of their own to apply to a form. I don't intend to save the images as defaults or anything. Just the option to browse and apply to a form.
I've been trying to make an image viewer that keeps top most while I do other things (like typing, etc), so I don't have to hop windows, or sacrifice screen real estate.I made a main form, and a configuration form (opened by pressing o), with options to set the main form's opacity (working), the picture displayed (as the form's backgound picture, not working), and if the main form stays top most or not (working).
Instead, the form just keeps displaying the image I set in the IDE.I first used a picture box to display the picture, which did not work, and decided I didnt need to have a picture box if I set the picture as the form's background picture.I tried looking at what could be going wrong, but couldnt find out much more than the path is being delivered to the main form.I'm working on Vista Home Premium 32bit SP2, VS2003, and here's the code.PS The code links to a D:ath-fin.jpg that I used as the default background picture, and the code is for 2 seperate forms.
Public Class Form1 Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form #Region " Windows Form Designer generated code " Public Sub New()[code].....
I am trying to put an image selected by the user into the form background. This means that an image from a specified file destination to be set as background.
