Click inside a list of points to return a number

I created a list of points as the first section of my image map. There will eventually be 80+ sections each with their own number value.

If anybody can tell me how to make this particular section return a value of 20 to a label when the mouse is clicked inside the coordinates I laid out, that would be great!

vb.net Code:

Public Class Form1
 
    Public Sub New()
 
        Dim pts As New List(Of PointF)() 's20 big
 
        pts.Add(New PointF(224, 75))
        pts.Add(New PointF(232, 131))
        pts.Add(New PointF(267, 131))
        pts.Add(New PointF(276, 75))
        pts.Add(New PointF(224, 75))
 
        Me.InitializeComponent()
 
        Me.PictureBox1.Image = My.Resources.Dartboard_unlabeled_svg
 
    End Sub
 
    Private Sub PictureBox1_mouseclick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.MouseClick
 
    End Sub
 
End Class

you could use graphicspaths with a dictionary(of graphicspath, integer) like this:

Code:

---

Public Class Form1

    Dim sections As New Dictionary(Of Drawing2D.GraphicsPath, Integer)

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        Dim pts As New List(Of PointF)() 's20 big
        pts.Add(New PointF(224, 75))
        pts.Add(New PointF(232, 131))
        pts.Add(New PointF(267, 131))
        pts.Add(New PointF(276, 75))
        pts.Add(New PointF(224, 75))

        Dim gp As New Drawing2D.GraphicsPath
        gp.AddPolygon(pts.ToArray)

        sections.Add(gp, 20)
    End Sub

    Private Sub Form1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Me.MouseDown
        Dim kvp As KeyValuePair(Of Drawing2D.GraphicsPath, Integer) = sections.FirstOrDefault(Function(de) de.Key.IsVisible(e.Location))
        MsgBox(kvp.Value)
    End Sub

    Private Sub Form1_MouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Me.MouseMove
        Dim kvp As KeyValuePair(Of Drawing2D.GraphicsPath, Integer) = sections.FirstOrDefault(Function(de) de.Key.IsVisible(e.Location))
        Me.Text = (kvp.Value = 20).ToString
    End Sub

End Class

edit: the MouseMove code was just there for my testing purposes...

any progress with that?

That looks exactly like what I need!

Only thing is when using that code the image in the picture box doesn't show and the picture box blocks mouse clicks to get the value. When I moved the picture box out of the way I did get a value of 20. How do I make it so that the image shows and I can still get that 20 return when clicking over the picture box?

my code was using form mouse events.
just change it to picturebox mouse events
