Picturebox Control Location On Screen?
Dec 17, 2009
I have a picturebox (pbRows) that I want to always be aligned with the right side of the screen. The form may be wider than this (I have a horizontal scrollbar), but the picturebox always needs to be along the right edge of the screen. Currently I have this code snippet in the form_load subroutine:
Dim rowsX As New Integer rowsX = Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Width - pbRows.Width pbRows.Location = New Point(rowsX, 25) However, the picturebox is aligned with the right edge of the form (initially hidden off the screen). Am I missing something obvious?

I'm inexperienced with windows forms (vb.net), and I have a rather silly question.I'm opening an old project of someone elses, and there's a PictureBox control on the form. The PictureBox has a photo, and I'm trying to find the location of the photo on the computer but can't find it.In ASPX, I can just look at the code behind and find out where the tags are pointing to (for the photo).The only code that exists for my object, with the image property is this: [code]

I am currently working on a game that I want to add squirrels running around at random for me to kick off the form.
Ex..
picturebox.location=200,200
And I set a new location for it, as 5,5, how can iIget the picturebox to move to that coordinate, a few pixels at a time until it gets there, so it looks like my squirrel is running to that location?

Can the background image in a picture box be moved, or located some where else, not the top left corner?I am aware of the layout that can be changed but that is not what I am after.

For those who have programs such as Skype, you may already be familiar with this action. Basically Skype and some other programs have a feature where when you move the form near the screen boundaries it jumps and "locks" into position into the corner of
the screen. To my understanding, Windows 7 seems to have this feature, but it is not as jumpy as Skype is. It seems you have to be within 20 pixels or so for it to work with Windows whereas Skype seems to work if you are near the corner.How would I go about moving the form near the corner and automatically relocating the form to that corner? For example, if I placed my program near the top left corner, how would I relocate the form to (0, 0)?

I need to make the game so that if the boundries of the player intersect witht he boundries of the goomba, the goomba will move to a random location.
I can't get the goomba to move to a random location, here is my code. I highlited and bolded the part of the code that I am having the prolem with.

I have several DataGridView's that are located in several different containers. I want to display a small form in a precise location relative to the RowHeader when the user's mouse moves over the row header of the datagridview. How can I get the screen coordinates of the RowHeader? The code below does not display the form in the proper location. I want the top-left corner of the form to be displayed 15 points to the right of the Right property and 15 points below the Bottom property of the RowHeader.

I'm working on a vb 2010 project where I am playing mpeg movies using the Media Player control.The computer has dual heads (extending windows desktop to other display). My aim is to be able to selectwhich screen to show the video on. I have two forms, the first form (frmControl) has two buttons, Play and Stop.The second form (Player) has the embedded Media Player. Initial tests worked fine (not choosing a screen, but making the player fullscreen and playing a movie). When I add the following code to allow choosing the screen

i am making an RPG game with visual basic...The character is a picture box.The problem is when i move the charactor with the arrow keys it flashes black for a milisecond. I think added animated walking where it slowely moves 32 pixels but not it goes black the whole time... what can i do sto stop it going black everytime it moves?
Old movement
If e.KeyCode = Keys.Right Then
player.Image = My.Resources.mainplayerright
moveto = New Point(playerx + 32, playery)
[code]....
That code moves the player slowely but causes a big black line to merge then just ends up teleporting the player..How can i get rid of the black flash during movement?

I need to know how to get the position of the mouse within a picturebox just as you would with e.location, but you can't use e.location with a picturebox and you also can't use Picturebox.Mouseposition which is very unfortunate.

I created a game where you use the mouse to play, it's like the game labirynth. You can't touch the walls or you lose. When I start the level I want the cursor to appear in it's starting position, which is a red picturebox.
Here is the code I used:
Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position = New Point(679, 650)
The location where the cursor appears is actually dependent of the resolution of the screen.
For example: with my monitor resolution, the location (679, 650) is right on top of the picturebox i need it to appear on. but if you have a different resolution on your monitor it will appear on a different place. I need to actually make it appear on top of the picturebox.

i have a chart of images.. and i want to load individual images into picturebox from that chart..chart = big image, eg alphabet chart. (yes i am creating a game for my small nephew.. pictures and alphabet) now, i want to show different pieces of images into picture box. like the A box, b Box etc one option is to cut the chart into pieces, save each piece with different filename and load individual filename into picturebox.but i saw somewhere that we can use pixel location to load images into picturebox..as i recall it required two pixel location, 1 was upper left and other was lower right.. and passing that pixel locations would load the rectangular image between those pixel locations into picturebox?

In my VB.NET application when I try to get the image location using picturebox.ImageLocation (path), it is returning null. I have to use that path string in filestream's parameter to open it. Since it is returning null, I couldn't open the file (image) in filestream. The following error is coming:
"Path cannot be null"
This is my code:
Dim path As String = Picturebox1.ImageLocation
Dim filestrm As FileStream = New FileStream(path, FileMode.Open)
Dim arry(filestrm.Length - 1) As Byte
filestrm.Read(arry, 0, filestrm.Length)

I need to plot some analog values read from the serial port.I plot them in a picturebox starting from left. When I reach the end of the control at the right side I shift all values to the left of a point and I plot the new point at the right, (I have some flickering but it could be acceptable). This is my plotting control.My problem is that I have to clear the control (picturebox) in order to plot the shifted graph, but the method Clear of the Graphics class clears everything inside the picturebox, even my grid.How can i make always visible a grid "in" my picturebox?
1.a transparent image with a grid over the PB? (the clear method cannot remove it)
2.an image with a grid below the picturebox that must be with a transparent background to make visible the grid?
3.multiple layers on the same picturebox?

When you select an item in the listbox, a picturebox shows the preview of that certain product.I practically finished the entire project as well as the picture part; however, I realized that the way I set up the coding, I used image locations from my hard drive meaning that someone can't view them on another computer.This is a portion of my coding:

1. Just looking for some general help on how to auto update my application via a file location path (e.g. I have a HTML file containing the current file version and the .exe file to download)
What I need is to read in the HTML file version - DONE Check file version vs HTML file stream input - DONE Replace current .exe file with new .exe file - HAVING ISSUES WITH THIS
I know I have to close the application and then replace the old exe file with the new exe file then restart the application but looking for the best/safest way this can be done

I am new to VB and having an issue with Print Screen. I'm trying to take a screen shot, show it in a picBox and then save the image to a file. Eventually, I want to add a timer and have the webcam open on screen so that I can take a set of pictures and save them to the hard drive (a very simple "security" cam).What's happening is when I click on my "Start" button the screen shot always seems capture the last screen event (ie: if I move the dialog from left to right and click "Start" the dialog is still showing on left side of screen shot). Not sure what's going on with this. I tried variations to update (picBox.Refresh(), .Update(), and .Show()) without any change. It's as if two clicks are required to make a capture.Also, I'm trying to save the image that's been captured and can't seem to get that working.
Code:
Option Explicit On
Option Strict On
