VS 2010 Loop Once Through An Animated GIF?
Aug 28, 2010
I'm using a picture box to show an animated gif on my form. When i created the gif, I set it so it only loops once. The gif plays correctly in a browser, but when i set the image of the picture box to my animated gif it continuously loops.
I only want to loop once through the images embedded in my animated gif when i set the image of the picture box. What is the easiest way to do this? Does anyone have or know of any sample code to do this? I have been searching this for a while, but have not been able to find anything.

I'm using an animated gif as my image in a picturebox.When I set the Image property of the picturebox to my animated gif, the gif displays on a continuous loop. I want it to only loop once, and then have the image remain as the last image in the loop What is the best way to achieve this?

I've been racking my brain trying to figure this out. I've done a ton of searching but I can't find what I'm looking for. Right now my program gets a image file, converts the image to 4 colors (Black, Red, Yellow and Green), then converts each pixel to a number for that color.This works great, but now I'm trying to do this for an animated image, but I need to be able to loop through each frame, but I haven't been able to figure out how to access each frame of the image.

I am using the code ol' Formless posted in this thread:[URL]..To load an animated cursor from a file. The code makes use of an API method that requires that the file actually exist. That's possible, but far from ideal. I would rather add the cursors to the resources of that module. Therefore,

Makes the following statement about the code below:
**"The computer evaluates the loop condition in the Do...Loop statment to determine whether the loop instructions should be processed. In this case, the inputsales <> String.Empty condition compares the contenst of the input sales variable to the String.Empty value. As you know the String.Empty value represents a zero length, or empty, string if the inputsales variable is empty, the loop condition evaluates to True and the computer process the loop instructions. *If on the other hand the inputsales variable is not empty, the loop condition evaluates to false and the computer skips over the loop instructions.
Based on the code I think it is the opposite: ...that while the inputsales value is not empty it should evaluate to true and process the loop and if it is empty it should evaluate to false and skip the loop?
See below.

I can't get the loop to work. The calculator is suppose to show how far someone goes for each hour increment (i.e. if they punch in 3 hours, it should show a number for 1 hour, 2 hours and 3 hours; if they punch in 10 hours it should show a number for 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours....etc. up to ten hours, etc.) I can't get it to show anything except for the total number of hours traveled and total distance.

A generic error occurred in GDI+I've tried several animated gifs and they all do it.
I've just got a picturebox on the form. and the following code
picPictureBox1.ImageLocation = ("c:

First 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?

I'm trying to get an animated gif picturebox to play and then after it is done "Playing" it will hide and show another picturebox. I thought I could do this with a timer but I can't really seem to get it to work. I need this in the form_load because the first picturebox shows on form load.

I was trying to show an waiting icon when processing a time consuming operation (to let user know something is running behind), but no sure what's the good way to do it? for example, i have a picture box holding this animated Gif, and initially i set it to be invisible, but I want to show it and actually working (alive) when clicking a button, this button will trigger a do loop ending after 1min.

I want to add an animated taskbar icon to my WPF project. I figured I would just use the Icon property, but I'm fairly new to WPF, and I dont know how to do it.

I 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?

Using 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
If Index = AnimationIcons.Images.Count - 1 Then

I 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.
