• Visual Studio Express Editions How to AutoRedraw drawing on a picturebox

  I wrote a simple program which saved two mouse positions of mouse down and up and then drew a line. But the problem was that when I minimized the window and again restored it, the drawing would disappear. In VB6, enabling the AutoRedraw value would repaint the picturebox. How can I do it in VC++ Plz don't mind the unnecessary cast, it was just a dummy project (^; private : System::Void pictureBox1_MouseDown(System::Object^ sender, System::Windows::Forms::MouseEventArgs^ e) { x1 = static_cast < float >(e->X); y1 = static_cast < float >(e->Y); } private : System::Void pictureBox1_MouseUp(System::Object^ sender, System::Windows::Forms::MouseEventArgs^ e) { x2 = static_cast < float >(e->X ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Problem Photo Upload Dialog: "THis folder has a new image format. The COnverter is downloading."

  Does anyone have any insight as to what is causing the photo uploader not to recognize any photos in the My Pictures folder It shows "No photos in this folder" (when there are) and when you change to another folder containing photos it gives a dialog box " There are images with a new format in this folder. The converter is downloading". Well, there are the typical jpg photos in the folder, and when the dialog box goes away by itself, it still shows "no photos in folder".

  I understand it'd be pretty difficult to help me with a problem with me just describing it, without seeing code so... http://skynes.tripod.com/TheWizard.zip There's a link to a zip file containing my XNA project and all images. The Project so far is a mix of a couple of tutorials I found online (2d wizard and a tile engine) along with sprites I found online. I haven't made any of my own sprites yet cause I don't see the point until I have everything working, but I will be using all my own original sprites when it works. Anyway. So far it's a wizard who can jump and shoot fireballs. An enemy (movement currently commented out) walks across the screen, firballs dont do anything yet, but touching the enemy costs you a life.
