PictureSizeMode property example
The following example uses the PictureSizeMode property to demonstrate three display options for a picture: showing the picture as is, changing the size of the picture while maintaining its original proportions, and stretching the picture to fill a space.
To use this example, copy this sample code to the Declarations portion of a form. Make sure that the form contains:
- A Frame named Frame1.
- A SpinButton named SpinButton1.
- A TextBox named TextBox1.
- Three OptionButton controls named OptionButton1 through OptionButton3.
Note
This example is an enhanced version of the PictureAlignment property example, as the two properties complement each other. The enhancements are three OptionButton event subroutines that control whether the image is cropped, zoomed, or stretched.
Dim Alignments(5) As String
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Alignments(0) = "0 - Top Left"
Alignments(1) = "1 - Top Right"
Alignments(2) = "2 - Center"
Alignments(3) = "3 - Bottom Left"
Alignments(4) = "4 - Bottom Right"
'Specify a bitmap that exists on your system
Frame1.Picture = LoadPicture("c:\winnt2\ball.bmp")
SpinButton1.Min = 0
SpinButton1.Max = 4
SpinButton1.Value = 0
TextBox1.Text = Alignments(0)
Frame1.PictureAlignment = SpinButton1.Value
OptionButton1.Caption = "Crop"
OptionButton1.Value = True
OptionButton2.Caption = "Stretch"
OptionButton3.Caption = "Zoom"
End Sub
Private Sub OptionButton1_Click()
If OptionButton1.Value = True Then
Frame1.PictureSizeMode = fmPictureSizeModeClip
End If
End Sub
Private Sub OptionButton2_Click()
If OptionButton2.Value = True Then
Frame1.PictureSizeMode = fmPictureSizeModeStretch
End If
End Sub
Private Sub OptionButton3_Click()
If OptionButton3.Value = True Then
Frame1.PictureSizeMode = fmPictureSizeModeZoom
End If
End Sub
Private Sub SpinButton1_Change()
TextBox1.Text = Alignments(SpinButton1.Value)
Frame1.PictureAlignment = SpinButton1.Value
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
Select Case TextBox1.Text
Case "0"
TextBox1.Text = Alignments(0)
Frame1.PictureAlignment = 0
Case "1"
TextBox1.Text = Alignments(1)
Frame1.PictureAlignment = 1
Case "2"
TextBox1.Text = Alignments(2)
Frame1.PictureAlignment = 2
Case "3"
TextBox1.Text = Alignments(3)
Frame1.PictureAlignment = 3
Case "4"
TextBox1.Text = Alignments(4)
Frame1.PictureAlignment = 4
Case Else
TextBox1.Text = Alignments(SpinButton1.Value)
Frame1.PictureAlignment = SpinButton1.Value
End Select
End Sub
