I have a drawing image, Dim DrawingImage as Image = My.Resources.Img, which will be drawn on my form. The DrawingImage is supposed to be 64x64, but the Img.png is 114x114. How can I get this DrawingImage to stretch so that there is no cut off portion?
P.S. Is there a way to BringToFront this DrawingImage?
I am trying to control the Stretch property of an Image object in VB (using Visual Studio 2008 if it matters.)Is there a way to do this with VB code?I have added the Presentation Framework reference to the project.I can create a variable to point to an image using dim imgName as Image = Image.fromfile("filename.jpg").After I declare the variable, I can imgName. and get a whole list of properties, but Stretch isn't there.

I only have 5 toolstrip buttons, so the buttons only fill up half of my form. How can I make it so that the buttons stretch to the size of my form? So, that I can fill up the whole toolstrip?
i got this code to change the desktop background from a forum.[code]the SetWallpaper function was written by me as the ChangeWallpaper only works on .bmp files.all these code works but my problem is that i need this wallpaper to be stretched because some of my pictures are smaller or larger than 1280 by 800 pixel which is my pc monitor dimensions. i've tried to tweak the ConvertBitmap function (as you can see in the comments) to produce bmp's to my screen size but it doesn't work.i need to set the pictures (.bmp or not) to be stretched and i don't know about dlls and stuff

View 1 RepliesIm have a form and an image. Imagine the form's backcolor to be black and the image to be a landscape. When you resize the form the image is also resized and streched towars all directions. The point is that as you resize the form the image delays to be resized so the background which is black is showed.
View 1 RepliesThis might be a simple question, but how do I automatically have my form adjust it's width to the size of the screen on startup? I also need it to dock on the very bottom of the screen at startup, and it needs to stay above all other open programs.

View 3 Repliesi'm creating 64 button dynamically during run time. and from database i'm getting the description, font color, back color and picture path. and if the picture path is not nothing, then i need to display that picture in that button. if picture path is nothing, then need to display the description as button text using font color and back color.
this button values are not loaded only once. using button click Addhandler, each button values keeps on changing each time.
The Code i used to display is
Code:
For Each c As Control In Controls
If c.Name = "ItemBtn-" & x Then
c.Text = ButtonText
[Code].....
while i run the program, the image is diplaying in correct button if picture path exist and button that didn't have the picture path is displaying the text.
but the image is not fitting inside the Button. i can see only half of the image. i need a way to make the Image stretched or reduced to fit inside button.
I've been working with a class that was originally coded in C# that allows you to place semi-transparent (alpha) PNGs onto your forms. I'd like to have the ability to stretch the PNG images to a users preference. For this I have used standard code to resize a form using a picturebox as a gripper. On the resize event of the form I call the SetBitmap() sub to re-define the width and height of the image.

I need to stretch the form according by the users screen. My application has to run maximized, but other users may have different resolutions sat and they won't see the whole program or will see it smaller than their screen.
This may affect the resolution, what code would do that?
maybe something like: get resolution (x:y) and set size width and height but I would still need to stretch all the other controls within the form as well.
We have a browser in a panel that gets resized programatically. Unfortunately when the panel is larger or smaller than the nominal size of the web page visited by the browser, we either get a clipped image, or a lot of blank area. We would like to force the browser page to stretch to fill the available space when we dock the browser in the panel.
View 1 RepliesI am making an operating system based game in visual basic. The real problem is that the game runs full screen and when it comes to desktop backgrounds I am having heaps of problems.First I had the desktop as just the forms background image but I needed to add icons to the desktop so I anchered a listveiw onto the background and the problem is that the listview is not transparent and you can't see the desktop background.
I thought that I could fix that problem by setting the background image on the listveiw as the background image but the problem is when i set a background image on the listveiw there is no option to stetch the image. The only option is to tile the background image.
How can I get the listveiw either transparent or set it a stretched background. ( the user gets to choose a desktop background so they all need to be able to stretch to the full desktop of the user's screen resolution.)
My randomised image poll generates 6 csv files. Each csv files have the contents of three listboxes

1) how to assign column titles to each column? 2) How do I combine several csv files into an open excel file? I've looked at several things. There are no commas in my csv files. All values in columns.
How can I make it so that when I re-size my program all my buttons and text boxes move with it. I don't know how to explain it, but it's like if I have a button in the center of my form and I re-size my form I want my button to stay centered not just have the form stretch out.

I have a third party GIS tool that I'm using to view maps with. Occasionally we have to take a snapshot of a portion of the map and dump it to a bitmap. The third party tool has a function that will give me the upper left and lower right coordinates of the area selected on the map. These coordinates come out as system.drawing.point objects.
The two point objects are then used to generate a new system.drawing.size object that will give the height and width of the area selected. The height and width values are passed to the constructor for the system.drawing.bitmap.All this works fine most of the time. Sometimes, however, when the user selects a particularly large area, the bitmap constructor bombs with a 'parameter is not valid' error. There isn't any documentation on this error, but I'm assuming it means the height and width are too big.
So what I'm wondering is... is there some way to check my height and width values prior to creating the bitmap and make sure they are in acceptable bounds?
