Scrolling Through Different Images As Background In Visual Basic?

Sep 4, 2011

What would be the best and easiest way to change background image in a VB application from images that are preselected by user from any given folder on the hard disk.

So say "Mike" selects some images in D:ImagesNature in the Nature folder we have lets say "20" images. Now the VB app reads this and saves path so next time its open its fetching images from that folder once more. And every few sec lets say 45 sec a new image is loaded for background.

Mar 20, 2009

How do I disable the background compiler for Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2008?

For my sins, I have to work on a large VB.NET project and it often locks up for 20 seconds at a time whilst doing the very helpful background compilation

I'd rather work blind between compiles and be able to do some work.

Picturebox Transparency - App Has Scrolling Images In The Background And A Picturebox On Top

Feb 28, 2009

My app has scrolling images in the background and a picturebox on top. The image in the picturebox has transparent parts. How can It so that the transparent parts show whatever is belo the picture box, not the form background? I have tried taking screenshots and positioning them as background but this just freezes the app.

Dim ScreenSize As Size = New Size(154, 83)
Dim screenGrab As New Bitmap(154, 83)
Dim blank As New Bitmap(100, 300)

Move Through Access Stored Images In Visual Basic?

Dec 10, 2011

So I have an application that saves and retrieves images from an Access database. The images are displayed in a picturebox but I'm having a bad time figuring out how can I move to the next/previous record/image in the database, so the user can view them and delete it if he wants to...

Here is a screen of my form so you can better understand what I'm trying to do:

And here is the

Imports System.Data.OleDb
Public Class Form1
Dim dbConnection As New OleDbConnection

[Code]....

Save and delete functions work fine, I just need to know how to do the Next and Previous buttons... This should be easy to do, but I'm still a beginner to VB

Biggest problem is that this is a part of a school work which I must deliver tomorrow.

VS 2008 Scrolling Background Of Form?

Dec 23, 2010

i am currently trying to improve my skills regarding simple graphics. currently i have a form with a background image. on top of that there is a movable image drawn during Form_Repaint. the image is a character that is animated. you click and the character moves to the new point. that all works great atm. i am even able to add new "AI Chars". they just randomly walk through the form and every time they stop, there is a 10% chance every 15s that they move somewhere else (random point). as is said, that works great. but now i am kinda stuck. since my "engine" (lets say so) is in isometric perspective, i need the ability to scroll.

Stop Scrolling Scrollbar Automatically While Adding Images In Winforms

Dec 23, 2011

I have a thumbnail control where I am adding Images using openfiledialog and after adding it automatically scrolls down.

So I would like to stop scrolling the scrollbar and just append the Images.

I have tried using this code:

Thumbcontrol1.VerticalScroll.Value=0

It worked fine but the scrollbar is at the bottom and it shows me the first row of Images.

And this is my second attempt by doing this way:

I have just set the autoscroll property to false and it hides the scrollbars and I'm stuck with this so how do I scroll the remaining Images?

And Is there any other method to hide scrollbars and just scroll the Images using mouse? Or any other simpler way to get rid of this?

.net - Which Version Of Visual Studio 2010 Contains Visual Basic SharePoint Templates

Aug 5, 2011

Does anybody know which version of Visual Studio 2010 contains the full set of Visual Basic SharePoint Templates? I am about to embark on a project to create Visual Web Parts to be used in a SharePoint report.

At the moment I am using Visual Studio 2008 and even though the WSPBuilder is installed none of the relevant SharePoint templates are present.Having searched SO and the web, most advise to install the templates via the Visual Studio command prompt: devenv /installvstemplates

Alas the Visual Studio command prompt is also missing from my VS2008 installation.So, the question remains: which version of VS2010 contains what I need for pain-free SharePoint development? There is a rather large price different between VS2010 Professional and VS2010 Premium, so can anyone tell me if the cheaper version (VS2010 Professional) contains all the Sharepoint templates?
