[RESOLVED] imagelist question???

Hi guys,

I am using .net compact framework 2.0

I was just wondering if it was possible to get the name of the image that is stored in the imagelist. I currently have a program that gets all the images off my device and displays them on a form (stores them in an imagelist called smallphotoImage). When the user clicks on an image it brings up another panel with an enlarged version of the image. I do this by stretching the image in the picturebox that it is displayed in, but the quality of the picture is reduced so i decided to create another imagelist called largephotoImage and store the pics from the device into this list at the same i store them in smallphotoImage. I have set the imagesize of each imagelist to the sizes required.

Now when the user clicks on the image and the panel displays with the picturebox how can i get it to display the image in the same position in the largephotoimage imagelist as it is in the smallphotoimage imagelist?

If this is not possible then is there another way of storing my images as 2 different sizes where i will be able to access 1 size by using the index of the other size image.

Sorry if this is a bit confusin to read.

Thanks in advance for any help

You can reference the images in each list by index (like MyImgList.Images(2) for the third image), so in order to do that you just have to find out the way to get the index from whatever you are using to display the images. If it is in some sort of listview or something, each one would have an index as well. Just reference whatever index the pic they chose was and use that index to show the pic you need from the other image list...

Thanx for the reply...i'll give it a go and see what i get

Thanks again

That works perfectly...thanx....i didn't think about using the index! :blush: lol I assigned the index of the photo to the name property of the picturebox and then used that to get the image from the largephotoImage list.

Thanks again. :thumb:
