I've looked and tried.. and for some reason just don't seem to be getting right now.
I have a picturebox that is 250x500, I want to draw a vertical line from the top to the bottom.
Using gs = pbMap.CreateGraphics
'Do While x.X < 250
'gs.DrawLine(Pens.Red, x, y)

I need some code to draw a resizable, draggable rectangular cursor (or selection box) on a picturebox. I found some excellent code (albeit rather old) that does just that, but on a form rather than a picturebox. I have tried converting the code - basically moving things to the picturebox events (Paint, MouseDown, MouseMove etc). It nearly works but leaves a trail behind it when you move or resize the cursor. In other words, the selection rectangle is not being erased before being drawn in the new position.
Is there some fundamental difference between drawing graphics on a form and drawing on a picturebox that would cause this behaviour? Something like, when you invalidate a form and cause a redraw it erases what you did last? If not, then I just need to dig a bit further and work out how the cursor is being erased from the previous position.
Here's the original code that works fine on a form:
Private DragRect As New RectangleF(20, 20, 100, 80)
Private Adornments(7) As RectangleF
Private MouseInRect As Boolean = False
[Code]....
So I built myself a simple program to work out the kinks of drawing in my programs. I have a button that I press that when the textbox.text reads 1 it then draws a line of a specific height, color and position, the problem is when I click that button again it will crash informing me that...
"Specified Visual is already a child of another Visual or the root of a CompositionTarget."
[code..]
I know where the problem lies, its with the Canvas1.children.add(line), cause its telling me the line variable is already been used or in use on the canvas, I'm just unsure of how to turn that into a solution that will allow me to click the button a hundred times or more without being forced to MANUALLY make a hundred or more individual variables to store the line.
Ok so im looking at this code and it cant possibly be right but im not sure how to do what i want.I have made a list of n points. I now want to click a button on my form and use the picturebox paint event to draw my lines between the points in the list.From what i can see i have at least two issues with this code. 1. Nowhere in this snippet do i reference the picture boxes paint event 2. I do not think that the loop i have is how to navigate through the list of Points to make my drawings.
View 14 RepliesHow do I draw straight lines? I'm working on a tic-tac-toe game and I have no previous experience with graphics in VB 2005. The MSDN doesn't exactly do a good job of explaining it. In QBasic it was very simple, you just did:
View 2 RepliesI want to draw three straight lines on a form. if the following code is correct:

Can I use only one variable (Line1) to draw three straight lines?
[code] With these 3 subs (above) I can track the cursor movement with my window & can draw a horizontal & vertical lines from the location of the cursor. No problems there. Problem is I only want one set of lines ( thus mimiking extended cross hairs) & what I get is persistance. Previous line drawings, cannot be erased out & hence I get a colouring/paint effect in the rectangle. Great if you want that, but I do not want that. How can I negate that effect & draw only 2 lines which follow the cursor location?
View 3 RepliesStep 1 - I plot 4 random points on an image in the picture box
Step 2 - I capture the co - ordinates for all the points
Step 3 - I draw a line from point 1 to point 2 (name it line 1)
Queries :
1) I need to draw a line parallel to line 1 passing through point 3
2) I need to draw a line parallel to line 1 passing through point 4
3) Extend the line from both the ends so that I can draw a perpendicular line passing through all the 3 lines so that it becomes a rectangle
I have a problem drawing dotted path lines, with evenly spaced dots: I want to be able to draw evenly spaced dots along a path line using points in an array, My issue is not with drawing the path line, with dotted lines, this is easy, but with the spacing of the dots at the start and end of the path line.
In the example I have created, I create a square with 4 points and draw a dotted path.The path starts at the top left corner and finishes back at the top left corner, the dots are evenly placed along the path, except the final dots at the end of the path. (Sometimes the dots are even and other times they are not even).The shapes I want to draw can be any size and any shape, but I have used a square in this example to show the problem I have.I have also attached two pictures showing the dotted path line, 1 with even spaced dots at the start / End and another showing the problem I want to resolve, with not evenly spaced dots at the start / end.The only difference between the two is the point values.

This form has a picturebox and a button. The program draws a random line onto the picturebox every time the button is pressed. I want to modify the program so that it also draws a line onto the picturebox when the program is first run. I added a draw() to the form_load event but that didn't work. What do I need to do?

View 2 RepliesI am new to vb.net, from VB6. Trying to understand drawing a simple line graph into a picturebox, which was so simple in VB6 ! From code snippets, I can see the basic idea using an bitimage to draw the lines and then showing it in a picturebox. I don't understand how to (simulate) scaling of the bitmap's x/y scales like you could do with VB6's .Scale.

VB 6 has a ScaleHeight and ScaleWidth property which VB 2008 does not support and this is causing me fits to work around. I'm trying to draw some lines (a graph) on a Picture Box (or a Panel) using my own coordinates (not pixels). This can't be all that hard can it?
View 3 RepliesI'm basically trying to make a simple, easy-to-use, paint program. I seem to be having problems with using multiple colors in the PictureBox1_Paint option. It draws the graphics but when you change the brush color and click in the picturebox it changes the colors of the previous graphics to the color you are currently trying to use. I need it to allow multiple colors.

Dim picBoxWidth As Integer = picGraf.Size.Width

So how to I tell it to start at the center of my picturebox names (picgraf) btw.
I have a question about drawing a string on a picturebox in the form load event. So I have a picturebox on a form and in the form load event of this form I have this code:
Dim gx As Graphics = PictureX.CreateGraphics
Dim f As Font = New Font("Arial", 8)
Dim brr As Brush = New SolidBrush(Color.Black)
' Add the copyright text
gx.DrawString("1", f, brr, 2, 5)
But when I load the program nothing is drawn in the picturebox. Is there something wrong with the code or should I use the paint event of the picturebox?
By the way I also used this code in another program and there it works flawlessly, everything is drawn in the right place there when i load the program.

but when a window appear on front of picturebox... its seams that picturebox redraw itself, so drawn lines erased.
I have a VB.NET Windows Forms app with a logo image on the form as a System.Drawing.Bitmap inside a PictureBox.I used the Visual Studio Designer to add the logo .bmp image so I don't currently have any VB code doing anything with it.I'd like to make the current logo a clickable object/button so when I click on it a file browser dialog opens and I can select a new image to replace the current image.The current image is a local resource and is set in a PictureBox as a System.Drawing.Bitmap.How would I replace that System.Drawing.Bitmap with a file selected from the file browser dialog?
