** Resolved ** Paintpicture in picturebox

[jimmymou]

Hello,

In a Sub, I paintpicture, draw and write in a Picturebox :

Picture1.PaintPicture Image1(0).Picture, etc...
Picture1.Line etc..
Picture1.Print "writing in it"

In another Sub, I need to access the Picture1.Picture property to copy it in the clipoboard :

Clipboard.SetData Picture1.Picture, 2

Well... nothing happens, clipboard remains empty, and when watching the value of Picture1.Picture at this moment it is = 0 ! (but the graphics is still correctly drawn on the screen). Are the paintpicture, line etc.. operations "non permanent" ? How can I grab the content drawn on the picturebox to put it in th Clipboard.

Ideas ?

Thanks

Ooops just found how to do it in a previous thread.

One has to persist the picture by setting the image to the picture property just after the graphic operation.

Picture1.Picture = Picture1.Image
