VB C# picturebox autohide after 10sec, how?

Hi,
Set the timer properties in in design time rather than inside coding.
More over remove those casting and all. Just write the code "pictureBox1.Visible = false".
This looks neat.

thx all, its working this way

namespace WindowsFormsApplication1
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            // Instantiate the timer
            t1 = new Timer();

            // Setup timer
            t1.Interval = 1000; //1000ms = 1sec
            t1.Tick += new EventHandler(t1_Tick);
            t1.Start();
        }

        void t1_Tick(Object Sender, EventArgs e)
        {

            if (pictureBox1.Visible == true)
            {

                pictureBox1.Visible = false;

                ((Timer)Sender).Enabled = false;

            }

        }

        private void pictureBox1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }
    }
}

Daniel,
You please check the below properties of your timer control.
Enabled should be "True". By default it's false
Intervel should be 10000 i.e. 10 sec.
Then only write below code
private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
pictureBox1.Visible = false;
}
 
 

i have tried that, on new project also, but cant get it to work.
did you tried it? works?

 

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            Timer t1 = new Timer();

            t1.Interval = 10000;

            t1.Tick +=new EventHandler(t1_Tick);

            t1.Enabled = true;

           

        }

        void t1_Tick(Object Sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            if (pictureBox1.Visible == true)

            {

                pictureBox1.Visible = false;

                ((Timer)Sender).Enabled = false;

            }

        }

this means current running form..

private void pictureBox1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            this.Hide();
        }

i get it, but i dont know code to hide only picturebox1, i figured timer out, but dunno code to hide only picturebox1, this.hide hides entire form
