hi, i would like to draw static arrows in the window form. Seems from the
posts that there isnt any drawing toolbox.
Is there a way of doing it?
Pls go step by step, this is the first time i am programming.
Wish it was as easy as in Microsoft Word where u can just drag an arrow....
Thanks 3 16808
Stephen,
There is, you can open as a new item a bitmap. Draw on that a nice arrow.
Save that bitmap and when you do it nice, add that bitmap to an imagelist
and than use that in a control.
Almost every control has the possibility to use an image in it. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...imagetopic.asp
In some of the controls as the picturebox this is not functioning, however
with the most it goes.
I hope this helps?

Hi,
In addition to Cor's comments you can draw a line with a endcap set
to an arrowanchor in the forms paint event. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ndcaptopic.asp
Private Sub Form1_Paint(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Paint
Dim p As New Pen(Color.Blue, 10)
p.EndCap = Drawing2D.LineCap.ArrowAnchor
p.StartCap = Drawing2D.LineCap.RoundAnchor
e.Graphics.DrawLine(p, 20, 20, 100, 20)
e.Graphics.DrawLine(p, 20, 20, 20, 100)
End Sub
