View 6 RepliesI have a label that is supposed to display a word for 5 seconds and then move down the list in a text file and display the next word.I'm oddly able to make it work in random mode, but not going down the list in order.. random would be ok if used words didn't come up again.
Code:
Dim DurHold As String = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText(Application.StartupPath & "FlashWords.txt")
Dim DurDelimiters() As String = {vbNewLine}
Dim DurTextLines() As String = DurHold.Split(DurDelimiters, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)

3. List the controls by the Name property and the control names, if any, that are not descriptive.
4. Change the Text property of the form to "Hangman."
5. Change the FormBorderStyle property to Fixed3D.
6. Explain why the form should not be resizable.

How do I get a VB program to display a character to the screen after clicking a button and then once the character has been pressed for the character to dissapear from the screen?
View 15 RepliesI propose to start a project which will take image files from a folder selected by the user, and display them as large as the screen will allow. I shall start with images that will be in the form 'filename.jgp'.I reckon I'll be able to do most of the coding without too much trouble but before I begin I'd like to know that there is a way of discovering the x and y pixel sizes of a .jpg file so that I when expand, or reduce it I will be able to keep the image in the correct aspect ratio.I'd also like to know if there is a way to rotate an image through 90 either clockwise or anticlockwise, (counterclockwise) for those cases where an image is stored sideways due to the difference between taking photographs either in landscape or portrait mode, or even through 180 I guess for if the camera was totally inverted.

I am working on a project where I have a signature displayed on the screen that is drawn via code based on data that has been transmitted from another device. This is from one of the samples from MS. The signature displays on screen just fine but I need to convert this to a bmp or jpg so I can save it to disk and/or print it on a report.
Code:
PrivateSub DrawSignature(ByVal g As Graphics)
' background
g.Clear(Color.Cornsilk)
' border
g.DrawRectangle(Pens.Gray, 0, 0, pictSignature.Width - 1, pictSignature.Height - 1)
' return if don't have a signature

I have tried creating a new bitmap from the image property of pictSignature but it is empty even though it has an image displayed on screen. This is the first time I have tried to work with this type of coding and am totally at a loss as to what I need to do to get a bitmap from the data.

Currently the program starts by displaying a character to screen, but I would like it to first wait 5 seconds before displaying the first character.
Then the character should not change until the user presses the corresponding character, upon which after a further 5 seconds a new character appears.
I'm writing a small app which I want to display a splash screen. The problem is my form 1 is appearing before the splash screen disappears. In fact is appears on startup blocking the splash screen. I have some code in form_load and have managed to figure out which line is causing the error, but I cant figure out why or how to prevent it.
The line reads
LoadSettings()
If I comment out this line everything runs fine and there's nothing in that sub that should affect form1. I'm doing this in vb express 2010.
Here's the code for my form_load:
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
LoadSettings() ' this line is causing the problem
My.Application.MinimumSplashScreenDisplayTime = intSSDelay * 1000
'resolution check

I've a form set to size 1240:750. On my PC where I've VB2010 installed, the screen size is set to 1680:1024 and the form can be viewed fine but on a PC with screen size set to 1280:1024 (higher than the form) the form in question is cropped almost a third of it. To adjust the form to everyone screen size I set the below code at load with no avail.
'Autosize form to screen
Me.Height = (SystemInformation.PrimaryMonitorSize.Height) * (0.9)
Me.Width = (SystemInformation.PrimaryMonitorSize.Width) '* (0.9)
Me.MaximumSize = New System.Drawing.Size(Me.Width, Me.Height)
Me.MinimumSize = New System.Drawing.Size(1240, 750)

View 4 RepliesHello.. I'm using a splash screen for the first time in an exercise. I have it set up to display the splash screen before going to the main form. I made changes to the splash screen title and copyright information. When I execute the program, the splash screen comes up but it's not displaying the information I changed. When I view the splash screen the changes are saved. It displays the project name where the application name should be.
