Bitmap Loading

Hai,

I am Having a bitmap with dimensions 15000*10000 How can i load it to a picture box, as i tried its loading partial image

Any Help Plz

What programming language? Visual Basic?

Ya VB6.0

The size of the image is much to large. I would resize it in Paint first.

Is that 15000 By 100000 pixels ! That is at least 10 times you screen size!

Pictureboxes don't use memory well to begin!.. With those dimensions GDI memory will be destroyed even with autoredraw off.. I am curious which graphics card support resolutions like that though.. I'd use bitblt, and just keep painting the visible portion assuming its the map BG..

I'd forget that altogether, and just load tiles.

chem

well maybe that is what it is... a grid of tiles? The tile based game i toy with i broke it up into six different images though.
