But I don't know how to refer to an image that is in my project resources.
I've tried:

VS 2010 Dynamically Generated Button Background?
Nov 2, 2011On my main form I have a 9 button grid that I need to fill with a gradient colour so that it represents a "heat map" going from Green (lower left) to Red (upper right). The "heat map" needs to be generated dynamically as - if I use an pregenerated image I have noticed colour variances when working on different screens / projectors as in the app there are other dynamically generated graphics & the two sets of colours need to match.So to achieve this - on my main form I have a PictureBox that I fill with the gradient colour.On top of the PictureBox I place my grid of 9 buttons.I then hide each button & take a screenshot of what is behind it & that then becomes the background image for the button. The button is then made visible.All works fine when I am testing in on a simple form The issue is that this arrangement needs to be placed on a tab control & I'm having difficulty replicating what I could do successfully on the simple form.....
Code for the colour gradient :-
Dim A As Integer
Dim B As Integer
Dim C As Integer
Dim D As Integer

Transparent Controls Over Form With Background Image Shows Backcolor Not Image?
Sep 18, 2009I 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?
View 3 RepliesBackground Image Will Not Switch Back From The Plain Background Color Of "control"?
Feb 19, 2011what I am trying to accomplish worked with the code in the last thread I posted a while back. I still am using this code, however, I changed the window size to work better and gave it a nicer background for the title screen of my project. Now what I am working on at the moment is making a settings form that has 2 labels. One for "Default" Layout and one for "Plain" layout. When default is at start, the default label is disabled,and when plain layout is clicked, the button is disabled and default button is enabled.Basically, this is a toggle switch for default or plain where if one is enabled, the option for it is disabled and the other is enabled.My problem is that when I switch from Plain back to default, the background Image will not switch back from the plain background color of "control"Here is my code:
Public Class Settings
Private Sub LinkLabel1_LinkClicked(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.LinkLabelLinkClickedEventArgs) Handles LinkLabel1.LinkClicked

Backgroundworker - Dynamically Create A Background Worker?
Jun 16, 2011I have a VB.net project which uses a background worker to do some stuff.
Now I want to expand the project to be able to do multiple stuff :)
A user can enter an URL in a textbox and when the user click on the parse button the program creates a new tabcontrol a outputs some data.
I use a hardcoded background worker for this.
But now I want to run multiple background workers to do this stuff so I can't rely on hard coding the background worker(s).
Is it possible to create background workers dynamically.
how to set this up since I think I need to set up the different methods and variables like:
Private bw As BackgroundWorker = New BackgroundWorker
bw.WorkerReportsProgress = True
bw.WorkerSupportsCancellation = True
[Code]....
I think I need to declare the background workers in some sort of array like variable (list / dictionary)??? Other then that I have no idea how to tackle this.
Dynamically Creating An Unlimited Number Of Background Workers?
Sep 7, 2010I am dynamically creating an unlimited number of background workers and would like to handle errors from them.
In a try statement I am using the following:
Catch ex As Exception
'Me.BeginInvoke(New UpdateTextCallback(AddressOf Error_Text), New Object() {Message, Account})
Exit Sub
End Try
I have commented out the BeginInvoke command because I can not get it to work. I get an error the the handle has not been created. This subroutine is in a module and I can not figure out how to get the invoke to work.
Dynamically Changing A Table Cell Background Color In Aspx?
Oct 25, 2010I have the following table row on my .aspx page.
Initial Requirements:

2008 : Listview With Image List - Change The Image In The Listview Dynamically?
Jan 15, 2010I have a listview control. it has an imagelist attached to it with two images in it. I have entered items into my listview, and they are using the first image in my imagelist.... GREAT! Now, there is a variable I have that will tell me which index in the listview is currently active, noting to do with what I select that could be at another index it's just what's being processed by the program at the time in some task.
Create a function that will change the images of all my listview items by looping through them. If the index variable is set to 2, I want the 3rd item in my list view set to use the 2nd image in my imagelist. The rest of the items in my listview need to be set to the first image in the imagelist.
