Picturebox

[copaz]

I am trying to change the picturebox that is visible when you hit a button on the form so that all the other picturebox are not visible and only one is visible. This is done in C# so any help would be great.

You could use the Visible property to hide all the other ones (set Visible to false) and leave the one you want visible.

the answer is so obvious that I thinks we didn't get the question right mutant...

 

copaz... is you problem solved or isn't it?

 

I think you want to know HOW to use the visible property isn't it??

If so, use, for example, a Select Case Statement...

 

Try this code:

 

 

Public Class Form4
   Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form

#Region " Windows Form Designer generated code "

   Public Sub New()
       MyBase.New()

       'This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
       InitializeComponent()

       'Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call

   End Sub

   'Form overrides dispose to clean up the component list.
   Protected Overloads Overrides Sub Dispose(ByVal disposing As Boolean)
       If disposing Then
           If Not (components Is Nothing) Then
               components.Dispose()
           End If
       End If
       MyBase.Dispose(disposing)
   End Sub

   'Required by the Windows Form Designer
   Private components As System.ComponentModel.IContainer

   'NOTE: The following procedure is required by the Windows Form Designer
   'It can be modified using the Windows Form Designer.  
   'Do not modify it using the code editor.
