slide transition in vb

[john5176]

I have two pictures and i want a picture box to start at the first picture and push right until the second picture fills up the picture box. i cannot use powerpoint because i do not have it installed on my computer. how would you recommend that I do this?

Maybe as 1 possible solution. Place both pic boxes inside a panel and set their correct height and size but have pic1 ahead of Pic2. Then with a timer update their location property so that it appears they are scrolling. When picbox2's location (x) position gets to where you want it to be - disable the timer.

You will have to play around with the settings of the timer and the location but it should work quite well.

Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
    Handles Timer1.Tick
 
        If Not Me.PictureBox2.Location.X >= 300 Then  'set to the correct value
            Me.PictureBox1.Location = New Point(Me.PictureBox1.Location.X + 20, Me.PictureBox1.Location.Y)
            Me.PictureBox2.Location = New Point(Me.PictureBox2.Location.X + 20, Me.PictureBox2.Location.Y)
 
        Else
            Timer1.Enabled = False
        End If
 
    End Sub
