Fit large picture in PictureBox Messages   Related Types This message was discovered on microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb. Post a new message to this list... Dick Hello, In my application I have a picturebox that must contain previews of picture files. The picturebox must always have the same size. For small images that fit, everything is ok. How can I fit in larger pictures? (Ideally would be that the picture is centered and fit in the box) Is this possible with the standard control? (if not, are there other controls who can do it out there?) Tia Reply to this message...        Cor Ligthert Dick, The picturebox has in my opinion although it derives from control the most special properties, one of them is sizemode http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemwindowsformspictureboxclasssizemodetopic.asp I hope this helps?

The only that works is sizemode 'StretchImage', but then the image is deformed. "Cor Ligthert" <Click here to reveal e-mail address> wrote in message news:Click here to reveal e-mail address...

I want the control to be the same size all the time and the image inside resized with no deformation if that's possible.

Dim caminho As String Dim imagem As Image Dim vista_reduzida As Image Dim a As System.Drawing.Image.GetThumbnailImageAbort Dim b As System.IntPtr Try imagem = imagem.FromFile(caminho) Dim resolucao_V As Single = imagem.Width Dim resolucao_H As Single = imagem.Height If resolucao_H > 992 And resolucao_V > 712 Then vista_reduzida = imagem.GetThumbnailImage(992, 712, a, b) Me.PictureBox1.Image = vista_reduzida Else Me.PictureBox1.Image = Image.FromFile(caminho) End If Catch ex As Exception MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "SIGDIN", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error, MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button3) End Try Kind Regards Jorge [Original message clipped] us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemwindowsformspictureboxclasssizemo detopic.asp [Original message clipped] Reply to this message...        Dick I will try it.
