Whats you error?

Hi Collin,
Not every stream/file constitutes a valid image; what Image.FromStream() accepts is the streamed content of an image file, as Image.FromFile() would expect. There is more to an image than just a bunch of RGB values; it needs dimensions, pixel depth information, maybe a color lookup table, compression information, etc.
Now what is it you want to achieve? You already have a valid image to start with, so why not modify it rather than copying/modifying its pixels, then work from there.
FYI: setting every third byte to 255 produces red only if (1) you do have a 24bpp image (which would be exceptional, most .NET images are 32bpp) and (2) the image is sufficiently dark (a white pixel will remain white, a yellow one will remain yellow)
BTW: in general when getting an exception, you should look at it; when posting a message, you should report it, that could help getting more and better replies sooner. In this particular case, you were bound to get an ArgumentException telling you not much except the one argument wasn't good enough...

Hi Collin,
if you want to convert an existing image into a stream, use an Image.Save overload that deals with streams i.e. Image.Save(Stream, ImageFormat).
the code you have shown does NOT deal with an image, it only handles pixel data; I suggest you don't try and convert pixel data back into a valid image, just use the existing .NET classes (Image, Bitmap), they know about several image formats.
FWIW: if you are having trouble turning an image into a stream (say a MemoryStream), then reading it back from that stream, chances are you forgot to "rewind" the stream between writing and reading, i.e. to reposition it at its beginning.

You can use the System.IO.MemoryStream object to do this.
byte[] buffer;
MemoryStream ms=new MemoryStream(buffer);
Hope this helps.

Hi,
I am trying to get some rich text (from a RichTextBox.Rtf) onto a bitmap but can't seem to find a way to do it.
The key lines of my code are...
Bitmap Canvas = new Bitmap(200, 200, System.Drawing.Imaging.PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb);
Graphics Artist = Graphics.FromImage(Canvas);
Artist.PageUnit = GraphicsUnit.Pixel;
Artist.DrawString("Hello", descFont, descBrush, rect, descFormat);
It would have been nice if there were a:
Graphics.DrawRTF(string richText, Rectangle rect)
method, but there isn't.
What is usually done as a replacement? Any help or pointers appreciated.
Regards,
David Bailey.

Hi musefan,
I am trying to display RichText not plain text. Or are you saying that the DrawString() command handles rich text as well?
-David.
|
|
|
|
|
No, DrawString() will not auto handle your formatting.
Have a look at this[^] for some ideas.
You could always handle yourself by iterating through each word in the richtextbox then getting its formatting(color, font etc.) before drawing it to the graphics object.

Thanks.
I did not think to loop though the rich text. Might just do that.
The link was useful too.

Hi.. Am new to C# and our director gave a project.
Basically, what i want to do is launch an external program and place it within my c# app so when i maximize it, it just maximize within my app. I know how to launch an external program. What i want to know is it is possible to place the launched program in a child form for example.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks..

There's an article on here called Windows Tabifier[^] that does what you want.

Hi,
I need to loop over a class' properties(object.GetType().GetProperties()), and if the property implements IEnumerable I need to respond to that, but I cannot find a way to confirm this, any ideas?

You'll need to have a check that gets the type of the properties and then checks which interfaces it implements. Something like:
<br />
Type[] ifaces = field.GetType().GetInterfaces()<br />
if (ifaces.Contains(typeof(IEnumerable))<br />
{<br />
}<br />
where field is the property you're looking at.
This might be better implemented as a recursive function if you have a deep object tree.
It definitely isn't definatley

Great, thanks. Took me a while to figure out what the results were but makes sense.
Now for the next challenge: For Generics collections you can do object.GetType().GetProperties()[0].PropertyType.GetGenericArguments()[0].Name for example to find out what object is contained by the enumerable, what would the equivalent be for an array?

If I've understood correctly, you need to look at the ElementType of the object:
<br />
int[] myarray = new int[10];<br />
Type arrayType = myarray.GetType().GetElementType();<br />
will return System.Int32
It definitely isn't definatley

Perfect, thanks for the help

Hi.
How can we add an icon to our control library ?
I mean , I want to change this icon[^]
Thank you.
|
|
|
|
|
You need the ToolboxBitmap attribute. A couple of issues with it that I've found.
It doesn't show at all if the control/component is in the same project.
If it's a component, it will only show the icon in the designer (not in the toolbox for either control or component) if it's in a seperate project in the same solution.
Works fine if the output dll is used as the reference!

Is this it :
[System.Drawing.ToolboxBitmap(typeof(WebCamCapture), "CAMERA.ICO")]

So how can we set an icon to it ?

First off there is an ASP.net forum that you may get more help with
Second please don't post so much code only the relevant problem areas
Third when posting code please use the code block then people can read it easier and follow the code.
and finally what error message are you getting?
