I am downloading a JPEG image from a site and then I need to find the darkest pixel of that image. It also needs to be very fast since speed DOES count here, majorly. (probably has to use an API)
View 4 RepliesI would like to load a GIF file, and start with the first pixel and check to see if that pixel color is closer to Black, Red, Green or Yellow, then take what ever color it closest matched to and output that color as a number, 0, 1, 2 or 3. So just for a small example a 5x4 GIF would be converted to something like this: 0112223322220111332?

View 2 Repliesduring the development of my project, i've fall in the need to change the position of some forms, pixel by pixel using a timer.Now, i've checked that the movement is very fluid when form is not very heavy, when it contains few elements, but when it has a lot of elements inside, the movement becames nervous and not fluid, the movement becomes jerky.

I am looking for some information on getting the colour of each pixel in a picture. The ide is to get the colour and then have my program draw a line along that colour itself. For example. If i have a black square on a white background, I want the software to be able the draw lines on the four edges of the black square, Is this possible?

I'm loading a picture into a picturebox. How can I set the pixel width to a fixed number, ex 300?
The whole picture must fit the picturebox, even if the original resolution is higher.

I've set up a transparent user control (used for drawing tools) over a page, and I'm trying to set up some code that will allow you to click through the control if the pixel underneath the pointer is transparent, but will NOT let you click through if the pixel is colored. Basically, if they've drawn a line there, I don't want them clicking through it.

For instance,WebBrowser1.getPixelColor(0,0) would get the rgb colour value of pixel 0, 0.It doesn't have to be rgb it might be hsl or whatever.The web browser is showing a local web page that is hosted on a network. If there is an error then the screen goes all grey. What I want to do is, if this does happen, display an alert message like - "An error has occurred

View 2 RepliesIn Vb6 you could make a private type by doing the following:
Private Type PointAPI
X As Integer
y As Integer
End Type
Vb.Net doesn't support this. I need it to store the x and y position of a certain pixel. I know i could just declare an x and y variable but i would rather use something like:
xyCentre.X = 5
xyCentre.Y = 10

View 5 RepliesWe stream the BBC news channel through a laptop hooked to a PC in reception for our clients. Annoyingly the stream is interrupted randomly (the line isn't dropping, it's the BBC's problem). Therefore when it's interrupted we get an error screen appearing which we have to go and manually refresh to get the stream back playing.
My intentions are to build an app which will be run alongside (silently) the stream monitoring intermittently a range of pixels. If the range matches the error screen that I mentioned previously then I'd call "Esc" to exit the full screen and then "F5" to refresh the browser and finally a double click on a specified coordinate to bring it back to full screen.
Problem: I've been doing some googling and so far have only seen related posts where the comparison is between two saved images. Due to this I expect the answer to be "Take a screenshot every now and then, compare, return result".
I am loading an image on picturebox, then trying to paint some particular pixel but it does not work for the tif image that I have. I got the following error message "SetPixel is not supported for images with indexed pixel formats."

View 4 RepliesI'm obtaining data from a StreamReader.My StreamReader is called "reader" and I'm reading the stream with "responseOutput" like this "responseOutput = reader.ReadToEnd()" And in that bunch of text that I receive I want to FIND and EXTRACT a piece of text and then STORE that extraction in a variable of String type.Here is part of the code I'm referring to:
Dim response = request.GetResponse
Dim responseOutput As String
Dim reader As StreamReader
reader = New StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream())
responseOutput = reader.ReadToEnd()
And here is the text or data that I'm receiving (what I'm about to show you is the result of a "MessageBox.Show(responseOutput)":

And all I want to do, is to extract a specific part of that text, which is the "PhotoId" value (I highlighted it in red), in this case the value is "8262715", and then store it in a variable (I know how to do that I just need the value).The text or data I'm receiving changes only the PhotoId everytime it's requested.
I loaded a text file to a text box, and I want the program to find a certain line containing only the strings I specify. But the text file will likely contain many of them, so I want it to pause scanning at the first line I'm looking for until I tell it to continue, then the second line, and so on. So the questions are:
1. What's the method for finding the exact line I want in a text file?
2. How do you start, pause, and resume scanning a text file line by line?
I have 2 images. One image is a large image and the second one is a small one. The small image has a copy of itself within the large image.

And I want to find the coordinates of the letter 'e'...
View 8 RepliesWhat are the best ways you guys recommend to search the MSDN Code Library. I know there have been several instances in searching for ways to do something, doing a long workaround, and finding out later that there was a built in class that handled the problem that I was working on much simpler.
So what are some of the ways you guys use to find tools, classes, etc. when coding. Or are you just that awesome already.This is kindve just a general tips and tricks question. Sorry if Im in the wrong forum mods.
in the old days i could so something like
GWBasic
10 A$="ReallyLongStringInSmallSpace": B$="tiny"
20 PRINT USING" ASDFASDFASDF ASDFASDF"; A$; B$
Output:
"Re ASDFASDFASDF tiny ASDFASDF"
it would automatically truncate large strings to fit in a small assigned space, and it would use empty spaces for strings too short. it made it VERY easy to print fixed front text tables in aligned columns by automatically truncating long lines and expanding using spaces (chr 32) where needed.i've already looked at .Format but it seems just for dates, times, currencies, and various byte/hex formats.
I have a form, that when opened, displays the image from the webcam onto it.
It's a test, to ensure the webcam is working. A prompt appears that asks if the webcam is working. However, some testers are lying and I need to find a method to make sure they can't lie.
My team wants to use a large bar code that the tester has to hold in front of the camera.
So I need to figure out how to either read the bar code, or just read the text in the bar code, which reads, "* C A M *."
It looks like the image below, but much larger.
Does anyone know where I should begin? I was thinking about using GetPixel, but I'm not sure I could or if that would be reliable enough.

how to find the row position/index in a data table, using a value from another table. For example, I use the row position from Linkingtable1 to get my value for CustomerID, but i want to use the CustomerID to search the CustomerTable for its row position, in order to show the Customers Name in a text box, As currently when loading the textbox shows the customerID. I understand the code to get the names from the rows in the datatable, its just finding the row position of the customerID.
View 9 RepliesI have an assignment due tomorrow, and I thought I had it all figured out but there is one question I don't know how to program. The assignment consists of a form with textboxes in which the user types info about a book (author, title, genre, etc.), which he can save to a textfile by clicking the save button. (At the moment it's not saving it to a textfile but just a 'file', which can be opened with notepad but is of no specific datatype, not sure how I do that, but is less important). There is also a button with which the user can display information from a different, earlier created textfile.[code]
