Load form

[Numsgil]

I think he's saying there's some functions in VB called LoadPicture and SavePicture.

[Zelos]

ok, hes not very good in explaining thing

[Zelos]

could you nums explain better what he means by those things? I dont get it

[Numsgil]

There are functions in VB called SavePicture and LoadPicture.  That's all I know.  I presume they load and save pictures to an imagebox.

Again. You should look at the code in Darwinbots for how to do this.

Just look at the object for MDIForm1 then click the menu bar, look for the bit that allows the user to set a background image from a file then click it to see what the code says.

I can't remember exactly how it all works but I do know that Form1 has a member called BackPic into which a bitmap is loaded.

I solved all these issues way back. You will just have to check my code to see how.

ive looked at it, but it uses images stored in the program, I wanna use pictures that is ina seperated file outside the program

Again, these functions do what you want, I'm just not sure on sytnax or how you use them exactly.

[Zelos]

ok I´ll give it a shot, is it possible to turn the picture like 90°?

No it doesn't!

The background image function in DarwinBots loads any picture file from any location that you have it stored in.

It has nothing to do with stuff stored in the program. In fact there ARE no picture files stored in the program. Period!

still have a problem with 'sizing' them to fit the 'field' ...
any hints?

[PurpleYouko]

Now that IS a problem.

I never really figured this one out, even after many hours of trying.

As best as I can tell there is no way to resize a picture on a form. But there is a way to "stretch" a picture if it is in a image object such as a picturebox.

Still never got it to work satisfactorily though.  :(
