VS 2008 Reading Images From Resources?
Sep 5, 2010Ok, here's my problem. I already understand referencing a image using My.Resources.(Image name), But this won't work for my current situation, because the image name is in a string so I can't Hard-Code it into the program. IE. The file name is found by doing the statement:Filename = "_" + poke + "_"
Where poke is as string that contains the name of the file. The normal way to call this would be to use My.Resources._(contents of poke)_ but that doesn't work since i can't just inject the contents of poke into the line without making the entire thing a string, and by making it a string that command doesn't work normally.
I just can't seem to find a guide anywhere that talks about this, and I've been stuck on this for quite some time now. I've been able to reference XML's that are included the same way as the images using My.Resources.Resourcemanager.Geobject but this doesn't seem to work for the Images, and I haven't found any other way.
VS 2008 - No Longer Compress Images In Resources Folder
Jun 5, 2010Recently I uninstalled and reinstalled Visual Studio 2008. Before that, Visual Studio compress images that I put in the Resources folder. In this folder I put images in PNG format for use in the project. When I was compiling the project, the executable was of a size much smaller than the sum of the bytes of the images as they were compressing in the compilation. The sum of the size of the images gives a 47MB, and the file compiled with the images was around 3.5 MB. But now the images are not compressed. For the resulting executable with the build is about 48 MB ... I'm deducing the problem is because the images were not compressed ...is it so?

View 1 RepliesUsing Images From Resources?
Jan 19, 2011I have added a .png to my project (in solution explorer). Now all I need to do is simply point a picturebox at this resource and display it.
I'm obviously missing something quite primitive! I assume that would be classed as a 'resource' ? I don't want to load images from file paths, it just makes it messy for the user + they could technically change what is displayed within the program.
Possible To Rename Few Resources Images?
Jul 21, 2009I am currently working on a project that contains a few images, that are placed in a lot of different controls. I was wondering, is it possible to rename those few resources images , ex. image1 name is bg, and when i click a button to rename that image to bg2 and rename bg2 to bg.. something similar to an image swap, just done by renaming resources. I will wait for a few suggestion, but if all lead to the same possibility, which I hope is not "no, you can not", than my time is narrowed down for better use, other than changing each control's image manually..
View 9 RepliesSelecting Images From Resources?
Mar 5, 2009I'm trying to populate a set of 9 PicturBoxes with images selected at random from a set of 54 held in Resources. The random selection poses no problem but getting the images to display is proving troublesome. My initial problem was that I can't just use a string variable to identify the image in VB.NET.
However, Deepak Sakpal has given a good pointer in answer to another post which looks good. The code runs ok and completes without any runtime errors, but sadly it displays no images. All (54) images have their Build Action selected to Embedded Resource, the image name concatenates correctly.

Use Images From Resources In Combobox?
Mar 7, 2012I have about 10 .png images in my.resources that I want to show in a Combobox, without any text. They're all slightly different sizes, so want them scaled to 40 pixels high x whatever the scaled width is.
When the end user selects an image in the Combobox, I want to store which of the my.resources items was selected to be saved so that I can then use it later on (for example, I want to save the value in my.settings, so that I can repopulate the combo box with the chosen image on next load).
I know how to load images into a combobox, but am having problems with the scaling - I also can't figure out how to load images from my.resources (it's easy with an imagelist, but how do I do it from my.resources?), or how to reference the selected resource for later use.
Retrieving Images From The Resources File
Jun 8, 2011I want to use the image.source property to reference or retrieve .jpg images from the Resource file at runtime so I can dispay them in an image control, but seem to be failing.

I'd like, each time I click a button, a different image loads in sequence into a picture box. How do I do this. I know I've got to some array which loads the images, and a loop to increment through the array, but I can't put it together with the resources folder and the PictureBox control.

Dec 7, 2011I am working on a project where my forms resize to fill the users screen (which means they have different dimensions depending on screen resolution).I have made some vector images (.eps) in hopes of using them on my forms so that when the form opens the images always look clear, crisp, and not skewed.I am finding that vb.net will not let me import a .eps file into my resources. Is there a way around this? Is there another way to get a vector image into vb? possibly an SDK that will allow me to work with .eps files the same way i work with .dcm images?

View 4 Replies[2008] TONS - Set Of Default Images And Then The User Created Replacement Images
Feb 11, 2009The app i am working on is for creating theme for the iPod touch... It has to deal with LOTS of images (100's potentially) There will be the set of default images, and then the user created replacement images. I started loading all the defaults into a resx file... thinking then I could just pull them out. now that I started setting the default, this sucks! lol the app will do this, on load it will set all the images (variables) to the resx images then when a theme is loaded, it will replace the default with the user image (if the user img exists) otherwise, the default stays. Then the "screen" is drawn to show the user. so, here is just the images to build the wallpaper, dock, and status bar...
