Working with images on the project...

[EFileTahi-A]

I mean, I can load and show a BMP picture from the hard disk, but, how can I do the same with BMP pictures I add to my Visual Studio .NET project? I do I access them?

 

Thank you

Is it just me or this forum is dying?

If you want a decent and timely answer it helps if you give a certain amount of detail in your question.

When you say

BMP pictures I add to my Visual Studio .NET project

do you mean as an embedded resource, as an assembly resource? Is this for a windows app or a web app?

Not everyone who frequents this forum has got the time and energy to request information from every post that doesn't bother to make itself clear in the first place, and even if they did you only waited 5 hours or so for an answer.

I totaly agree with this.

Well it's for a windows application. I did not mentioned this cooze, somehow, I thought, ppl would assume this unless I would say otherwise, as I think .NET plataform's is mainly target for windows applications development.

 

As for the "embedded resource or assembly ressource" I don't realy know what are you talking about. If I knew and were more experience in programming on .NET plataform I would definately added more info on this thread regarding this subject. If you seek for many of my threads you will realise that most of them are somewhat detailed.

 

I also believe that when ppl TRULY wan't to help they do it. Regardless the way the thread's author post (of course there is a certain degree of tolerance). At least this is what I do, but hey, we are all diferent persons with diferent points of views on things.

 

And, what I think from all this is that you only post here because of my last phrase "Is it just me of this forum is dying". This phrase that also happens to be a fact IMHO from what I see since I'm hanging around here for quite long, even before I registered here, because, about an year ago this forums activiy was higher (much higher). I beliebe that now the WEB can supply ppl with most answers they seek regarding .NET programming. Now I can always see the same old threads in this forum's first page. A thing that did not happened an year before...

 

From what I understand is if your will of helping me out would be truly genuine your effort of lecturing me with this sentence of yours:

 

"Not everyone who frequents this forum has got the time and energy to request information from every post that doesn't bother to make itself clear in the first place, and even if they did you only waited 5 hours or so for an answer."

 

...could be much more apreciated and usefull by changing it to:

 

"Well if your using embedded resource do this (...) otherwise, do this way (...)

 

Sorry if you dislike any of part of this post, but, I say what I think and I love to share with ppl my opinion is most things, dispiting if my listener sells ice-creams or if he is the president of US or even if solving of my problem relies on your .NET programming experience.

 

Cheers.

Ahhh that was what I was looking for!

 

Than you HJB417! It works like a charm :). Now I also know where can I define the image as embedded resource...

 

- THREAD SOLVED -

You do have a valid point as to why I responded - a self bump within a few hours of the original post shows impatience - people access this forum from several different time zones and have other commitments, usually allowing at least a day before a bump is customary.

Information about what you have tried to do so far can go a long way to helping people see what you are attempting, even if it is only 'I've added a bmp to my project via solution explorer, how do I use it in code' would have given far more of a idea. Also it does take effort for people to respond, and without being rude, why should somebody spend the time to write two possible solutions to a question when only one or possibly neither would be relevant to the original poster?

Perhaps my original reply was overly harsh and you just happened to be on the receiving end of it after seeing several posts recently from numerous posters with little to no information provided in the original question and then a rapid and discourteous reply of their own.

 

Now to be really sheepish but I forgot about this post

What do you mean by this? This happens all the time! This is what I typicaly call "Trying to help!". If I think I can help someone even without being certain if my comments will be usefull at all I will do it, it worths to try. If am not sure what the original poster is talking about I will still respond him from what I understood and ask him to be more specifc in case it is needed. If the original poster says that it was not that he was talking about then I will say to him express his thoughts better next time...

 

Listen, here is an example of a reply of mine to a folk that am not sure what was he talking about. I opened this thread of him by mistake when trying to click on own thread lol:

That's ok. Am glad we can clearify things up like grown up persons. I also think that you're a good fellow. I have been reading yours posts of from quite long ago and learned many things with your acknowledge.
