Visual Basic My.resources Icon File As Image On Button?
Jun 15, 2010
I'm using resources in VB.NET(2008) to manage my files and have 3 icon files that need to be on 3 buttons on my form (clicking the button changes the icon of the form tot the pressed button)
ICO_1.ico
ICO_2.ico
ICO_3.ico
but when I try the code below i get the error that "Value of type system.drawing.icon cannot be converted to system.drawing.image" any idea what's wrong?
btnIcon1.image = my.resources.ICO_1
btnIcon2.image = my.resources.ICO_2

I am C# developer and now I am involved in some large, already in production, project that is written in Visual Basic.NET.I am trying hard not to write in C# and use some automatic conversion tool to Visual Basic.NET. I want to be able to read and write fluently in Visual Basic.NET QUICKLY. I can write and read VB.NET but it is not so easy like writing and reading C#.

I am using Visual Basic 2008. My form has a transparent background, and on it are several PictureBoxes. I'm trying to load icons into the PictureBoxes using ExtractAssociatedIcon.picIcon.Image = Icon.ExtractAssociatedIcon(path).ToBitmap The problem is ExtractAssociatedIcon gets 32-bit icons, which contain the alpha channel (i.e. shadows), which don't display correctly on a transparent background because the form itself does not support the alpha channel. What happens is I get ugly-looking icons with the TransparencyKey showing through under the shadows.

I'm trying to save a setting that keeps what background image I'm currently using.If it's an external file, there is no problem, i can just get the .location and set it in a String setting to store it.
But, if I want to store an image resource as a setting, how do i do it?I know i can store rawdata, like bitmap information, but then i can't set that type of data to the my.background.
I don't know if the question should be: "how do i reference resources", but the my.resources.resource.methodsList doesnt contain anything that seems to be of use.

I want to create a Windows application with Visual Basic. The application is pretty simple: It lets you choose 2 images, and when you click "Create" the application will create a new .png image from combining the two images' bitmaps. This new file will be created on a specified directory.

It is very easy to move your cursor to a specific coordinate but my question here is how do you move your cursor to an image? Now what this would involve doing is importing an image so the program understands it, then finding that image on your screen (maybe through RGB colors). How exactly do you do this? What is the procedure? Say I want to import this image: [IMG][URL][/IMG] Now I want the program to find that image on the screen (THE START BUTTON) and then move my cursor on it.

Back in Visual Basic 6.0 and prior I could have a picturebox control and then have multiple images on that and using a gif file; then I'd have some images transparent. For example, I am trying to make a map where each country has it's own layer and the void is transparent so the underlying picturebox contains all the water.
However, in visual studio I've noticed the image control is now gone. I tried using a panel and a picturebox on top of that and it works but I can't use another picturebox on top of that picturebox, nor can I stack multiple panels with the same affect.

I have to make a calculator for school but I'm in a big dilemma. :( The thing is, I have this calculator with three textboxes and of course digits and operators. There's two input textboxes, txtInput1 and txtInput2 and then there's the buttons from btnZero to btnNine. My operator buttons automatically do the calculation and the output comes in txtDisplay which is disabled (so that you can't write in it).
And the problem is here, I want my btnZero to btnNine move their textvalue to my txtInput1 and txtInput2 as long as they are selected (so the cursor is blinking in it). Now I use "txtInput1 = txtInput1.text & btnZero.text" sure that works, but only for one txtInput. If I can't solve this I'd have to make all the buttons twice. ;( (Edit: If I press my operator button then "txtDisplay.text = (txtInput1 "operator" txtInput2)")
