View 5 RepliesI have about 100 PNG images stored in a Resource. Sometimes I need to have the same images in an ImageList, but I do not want to store the images twice in my application, so I add the images from the Resource to the ImageList during runtime when I need them.
Is there an easier way to do this than having 100 lines of code, like the small example below?
imgItems.Images.Add("A", My.Resources.A)
imgItems.Images.Add("B", My.Resources.B)
imgItems.Images.Add("C", My.Resources.C)
imgItems.Images.Add("D", My.Resources.D)

I'm trying to make a Blackjack game in VB. What I'd like to do is populate an array with each of the cards so that I can randomly generate integers and use those integers to pull an index from the array, basically randomly selecting a card. My problem is that I can't seem to get the images in the resources folder to go into the array. I'd like to use a For/Next loop to populate the array, as I would rather not manually assign all 52 cards to the array. I'm trying to do it like this:
Dim CardArray(51) As Image
Dim LoopIndexInteger As Integer
For LoopIndexInteger = 0 To 51
CardArray(LoopIndexInteger) = My.Resources.ResourceManager.GetObject(LoopIndexInteger)

I need to refer to some strings using an "indirect string" in the registry. It should be in this form:
@filename,resource
MSDN: "If the resource value is zero or greater, the number becomes the index of the string in the binary file. If the number is negative, it becomes a resource ID."How can I find out either of these numbers for my resources that only have names in VB? I also need the ID/index for the exe's icon.
I have a resource file that I include in my shared code library that has all of my re-usable classes in it (all the resources go into their own namespace). Now, what is the best practice regarding resources... should I include them in the same DLL, or should I have a seperate resource DLL and/or are there any benefits from seperating them out into their own file.
View 8 RepliesSo i created resource file New --> new file --> Native Resource Template Then added icons with custom id, like "x", "u_100", .. so i understand, what the files (in my case icons) is.. And i saved as 32-bit resource file (*.res) So i have a question, how can i use these files inside of resource file in my apps? i know how to add icons in to my app.. Me.Icon = New Icon(C:/icon.ico)
View 6 RepliesThe idea is to scan a folder of images and then let the user navigate back and forth through the images using a couple of buttons.The problem is, I can only get it to return a single image, and not the whole lot. It's looks to me as though the images are getting assigned to the same index in the array. [code]

View 3 RepliesThe 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...

I was thinking to make an app to save images [or download images] to local hard disk. But to keep it easy, I want this app to create a small picturebox on form to show the thumbnail of downloaded image. Lets say a 5 pictureboxes has to be added with the thumbnails to show the recent downloads. A user can save the location where he wants to save the files on hard disk. A listbox or a dropdown menu will help in categorizing the images, like image1 in friends section, image2 in family section, image3 in others, etc... When the program restarts all the latest 5 thumbnails has to be loaded in pictureboxes and the directory that was chosen. Finally, a button that shows the downloaded images into original image file size one by one or a slide show. Is it possible to make such program?

View 1 RepliesI have placed several PictureBox Images of different colored dots(which represent lights) on an image of a Christmas Tree. I can make the lights randomly flash using a randomGenerator and a Select case statement. However, the code is very long. There are 67 lights on this tree and the code is 71 pages long. There has to be an easier way to do this. So far I have tried the following with two images of lights just to see if it would work and it does not work:
Dim picLight(2) As
Boolean
For intX

View 9 RepliesI recently picked up the VS.net 2008 Trial, looking to possibly buy it. I added a splash form, and not even the default code works. First, I got the error "'My' is not defined". I went under my project, clicked the resources tab, and it asked me to create a resources file. So I did. Now, 'My' is defined, however 'My.Application' does not work. I'm assuming I simply have to add Application as a resource, just as I did with My.Resource. I'm not sure how to do this, and I apologize if this has been asked before. I did do a search but it yielded no results. 'My' was a bit too vague and returned no results, 'not defined' was a bit too vague and returned a bunch of results
