I'm not sure if you want to load the icon at run time or design time. At design time, you can obviously simply add it through the visual studio designer. At run time you have a couple of options:
1:
You can populate an image list at design time with any images you need for your button and associate them through the button's imagelist property. You can then change the button's icon at run time by simply changing the ImageIndex property to the correct image in the ImageList.
2:
You can pull icons from your assembly if they are compiled as an embeded resource. Right click on your project and choose Add Existing Item. Browse to the icon you want to add (You may need to change the Files of Type drop down to Image Files), and select open. The icon is now in your project, go to its properties and change the Build Action to Embedded Resource. You can now access this icon at runtime with the following code:
using System.Drawing;
...
System.IO.Stream strm = this.GetType().Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(IconPath);
Icon i = new Icon(strm);
However, to assign this to the Image property of your button, you will need to convert to a bitmap, as it does not accept icons at run time, do this as follows:
using System.Drawing;
...
System.IO.Stream strm = this.GetType().Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(IconPath);
Icon i = new Icon(strm);
Bitmap b = i.ToBitmap();
One thing to be careful of regardless of the method you choose is to make sure that you have the correct settings for the TextAlign & ImageAlign properties of the button, otherwise the text & image may overlap.
Hope this is useful.

i was wondering if it was possible for me to close a messagebox that is open from within my program...the messagebox is opened on a seperate threat...so my progress bar can still keep progressing. When the progress bar is done...reguardless of weather or not the user selected Yes or No i want the message box to close.... is it possible to close it?

One thread is doing work and another thread shows the progress of the work in a Form, am I right?
If so, the thread doing the work could simply kill the form's Close() method when finished.
|
|
|
|
|
well the main thread is doing the progress...when the user clicks a button (cancel) it opens up a message box on its own thread. i just was wondering if it was possible for me to close the message box...even after the Show Method was already called apon.

Well, if the messagebox is running on a different thread, just kill off the thread using
Thread.Abort()

Hello all,
Quick problem. I've got a Bitmap.
Bitmap bit = new Bitmap(this.GetType(),"bitmap.bmp");
This loads the bitmap ok. Now, I wanna add some text to it and save the added text to the bitmap itself for later use. I can't use OnPaint or anything like that.

By "save it for later use", do you mean physically save it back to disk in the file or just modify it for late use in the currently running instance of your program? I do not think you can modify a resource and then save it back into the executable or DLL on the fly. But I suppose I could be wrong, it has happened before 
If you only wish to modify for use during the current instance and lose all changes when you shut your app down, you can use the Graphics class and its paint methods.
Example:
Bitmap bit = new Bitmap(this.GetType(),"bitmap.bmp");
using(Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(bit))
{
g.DrawString("Some String Here",myFont,myBrush,myPointF);
}
Hope this helps,
Nathan

Hmmm... what's a signature?

Thats the one I meant

This doesn't work, I don't know why....it only load up the original bitmap...
Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(this.Location.X + 87,this.Location.Y + 11,150,36);
string show = author.ToString();
g.DrawString(show,new Font("Arial",13),new SolidBrush(Color.Red),rect);
...
this.img = bit;

In our application, we use system environment variables in our project properties in order to redirect our output files. It is done this way so not every developer and the build machine are bound to have the same absolute path.
We do this, for C++ projects, the following way: In the Project Properties, we set Configuration Properties -> General -> Output Directory to $(MyBuildDir)\Debug, for instance, and MyBuildDir resolves to c:\MyBuilds. This works very well with C++ projects, using VS.NET.
Recently, we added a C# project to our build process for this application. But setting the Ouput Directory with an environment variable, the environment variable does not get expanded and it creates a directory literally named $(MyBuidDir)\Debug under the project directory and puts the files there.
Why does this does not work like with VC++.NET? Is it because environment variables don't work with C# builds?

I have the Struct:
public struct Base
{
public string Name;
public string Phone;
}
public struct Operator
{
public int ID;
public Base[] OperatorData;
}
I want to populate a repeater with 2 collumns(Nome,Phone).
The following code doesn´t work.
rpt.DataSource = Operator.Dados;
rpt.DataBind();
In aspNet
<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"Name") %>
<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"Phone") %>
Please, help me.
How can I populate the repeater with a array of Struct ?
Thanks.

(Hello Paresh! I'm sure you will answer...)
For simple things, DataBinding is a cool thing; Now I saw that there is a easy property to bind a DataSource with a key in the datatable:
list.DataSource=m_workset.Projekte;
list.DisplayMember="projekttext";
list.ValueMember="projektid";
Looks good but I didn't find how to get then this Value out of an item - say by double-click on an item.
Does anybody knows hot to get this valuemember out of an listboxitem?
Thanks!
Stefan

I hope this is wath you mean...
textBox1.Text = list.SelectedValue; or...
textBox1.Text = list.SelectedValue.ToString();
now you have 'list.ValueMember' in textBox1 or any other control or variable you may have, i hope this helps.
Signature hmmmmm.....
I look for it at home.... tomorrow.

Does anyone know how to reference to an assembly which is generated in memory from another assembly also generated in memory (compilerParameters.GenerateInMemory = true)?

Hi!
I have a multi file assembly that exists of two modules and a .dll that contains the manifest. If I add a reference to the manifest dll into my c# project, I can access the types within the modules, however they are not shown in the intellisense window.
Is there any way to make them appear in the intellisense window?
Thanks in advance!
- Andre

Hmm... they are shown for me... are you adding the projects to the same solution? I am

|

Huh? Which version are you using?
I have two c# module that I compile from the command line using /target:module, lets say part1.module and part2.module. Then I use al.exe to create a manifest for these two modules (foo.dll).
If I add foo.dll to the references list (only the file foo.dll, no projects), I don't see any of the types of the modules. However, I can use the types and compile the program.
I got a post in microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.csharp that this is a known limitation (or bug if you want so).
It would have been *sooo* nice
