Overlaping images in Visual Basic

gilo gameto

Hi eveyone, Just wondering if anyone could give us an idea of how to stop two images from overlapping one another in a picture box of a VB form provided the initial x and y co-ordinates of the two pictures on the form's picturebox are know and the widht and height of the picturebox itself are known too using picBox.W and picBox.H pespectively.

I assume you are using VB.NET. That means GDI+. You need to look at GraphicsPath and Region object in GDI+. You can add two images to a GraphicsPath by using one of its Add methods. You can also use Region object to clip, intersect, and union two graphics objects such as images.
