Visual Basic :: Label In A Moving Image

Moving A Label
Hi all,
I have a little problem, I have a line of code:

lblblank.Move lblblank.Left + 130

Now this line of code enables a blank label to move across to the right of the screen. What i need to know now is how to stop this label moving across the screen after it has moved a few times to the right.
Does anyone know the line/s of code that come afterwards, i'm a bit of a novice so i'm not sure how to do this.

Any suggestions? cus i'm desperate.

Label Moving
What is the difference between these...

Code:
Label1.Move 111,222

and

Code:
Label1.Top=222
Label1.Left=111

I am just wondering why the writers of VB6 felt the need to make the special call 'Move' for labels?

Moving A Label
how can you make a label to move around during the form is open?

Moving A Form With A Label [VB6]
Okay so I don't like how the Windows title bar looks. SO I wanna make my own out of a coloured label.

How would I make it so mousedown on label + drag = form moves?

I got this:

Code:
Private Sub Label1_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
FormMove Me
End Sub

But I get errors. What do I do :P

Moving Label Continuously
Hi Folks,

I wrote an a simple example for moving label left to right using timer control. but i am not able to do it Continuously repeat.anybody tell me how to repeat label.

Thanks

The code :

Private Sub Timer2_Timer()
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To 10
Label1.Left = Label1.Left - 20
Next i

For i = 0 To 10
Label2.Top = Label2.Top - 20
Next i

End Sub

Moving A Label To Another Picture Box
I have a label array, a textbox array and a picture box array.
the labels and textboxes are generally loaded on Picture(0).

I need to be able to load them on another Picture box.
I am able to do this with the textboxes using their hWnd.

Code:Public Declare Function SetParent Lib "user32" _
(ByVal hWndChild As Long, _
ByVal hWndNewParent As Long) As Long

So I load them and then I move them to te appropriate Picture box.
But labels don't have an hWnd. So I cant use that function.

Anyone who knows how I can move a label between Picture boxes?

Moving Label (for Lack Of A Better Term)
Ok. First off, I have no idea how to do what I'm about to ask, and my vocabulary is gonna be pretty shaky. Ok, here it goes.

I'm making a game that relies tons on user input which provides data for output. I want the output to be put in labels, adding on to what was previously written. So say player1 does 7, 9, 4, 6, and 11 damage over 5 turns, and player2 does 5, 7, 2, 17, and 5 damage over 5 turns, I want a label to read.

player1 does 7 damage
player2 does 5 damage
player1 does 9 damage
player2 does 7 damage
player1 does 4 damage
player2 does 2 damage
player1 does 6 damage
player2 does 17 damage
player1 does 11 damage
player2 does 5 damage

I also don't want the label to be massive, so I want to add a vertical scroll linked to the label which will remain all the way down until the user moves it up to view what happened (it will show what just happened, but if the user wants to view what happened many turns ago, they can move the scroll bar up to see it.)

If anyone so much as understands this and can help me, plz do.

Select Case Help For Moving Label
Hi all,

I'm making a pong game currently, and so far i've got music playing on it, i've got the paddles moving correctly, and I have the ball moving correctly and bouncing back when it hits the paddle. Problem is that when I move the paddle out of the way from the ball it will hit an invisible wall (which is the paddle.left) and bounce back. I can't figure out how to fix this here is my code in the timer:

VB Code:
Private Sub tmrBall_Timer() Select Case iCase Case 1 ball.Move ball.Left + 100, ball.Top If ball.Left + ball.Width >= lblPaddle2.Left Then iCase = 2 Case 2 ball.Move ball.Left - 100, ball.Top If ball.Left + ball.Width <= lblPaddle1.Left + lblPaddle1.Width Then iCase = 1 End Select End Sub

Label Arrays.......Moving Text?
Just wondering if its possible to move text from an array of labels
to another array of labels in a certain order.?
for example, this is what i somehow want to do:

Label1(0).Caption = Label2(0).Caption
but when i try to put this line in as well:
Label1(1).Caption = Label2(0).Caption
only the 2nd line works, does this make sense, and if so how do i do it properly?

Moving An Image To Move Another Image
Im creating my first small program for my assignment and ive done the design and code, just havign trouble with another part if anyone could help me please.

Here is my whole code first off.

Code:
Option Explicit

Private Sub cmdBat_Click()

While imgBall.Left < imgBatter.Left
'Moves the ball away from the bowler
imgBall.Left = imgBall.Left + 1
'Comment
DoEvents
Wend
'Comment
While imgBall.Left < imgBatter.Left
'Comment
imgBall.Top = imgBall.Top - 1
'Comment
imgBall.Left = imgBall.Left
' Allows the user to respond to another button
DoEvents
Wend
End Sub

Private Sub cmdBowl_Click()

While imgBall.Left < imgBowler.Left
' Moves the ball towards the batter
imgBall.Left = imgBall.Left - 1
' Allows the user to respond to another button
DoEvents
Wend
'Comment
While imgBall.Left < imgBowler.Left
'Comment
imgBall.Top = imgBall.Top + 1
'Comment
imgBall.Left = imgBall.Left
'Comment
DoEvents
Wend

End Sub

Private Sub cmdExit_Click()
End
End Sub

Private Sub cmdStart_Click()
imgBowler.Left = 8400
imgBowler.Top = 960
imgBatter.Left = 840
imgBatter.Top = 960
imgBall.Left = 7920
imgBall.Top = 2520
End Sub
What i need to do, as the ball gets to the bat for the bat to hit the ball and move it back where it came from. Ive done so far that the ball goes past the batter and when the bat button is pressed the ball comes back to the bat and goes back again.

I cant work out how to move the ball back when the ball is moving and the button is pressed. Im not advanced in programing either, ive been doing it for about a year

Here is an EXE of the program so far to demonstate

Making A Label Stop Moving When It Hits A Certain Point[solved]
I have a long Label, it shows text, I want it to scroll slowly, but how do I make it stop at a certain point, If I do

VB Code:
Private Sub tmrAbout2_Timer() DoEvents LblAbout.Top = LblAbout.Top - 10 DoEventsIf LblAbout.Top <= 0 Then tmrAbout2.Enabled = FalseEnd Sub

Then it stops when the top of the label hits the top of the form/frame, I want it to scroll through the top of the frame, Its fine if I dont put an If then but it keeps going forever.

Seeing The Image While Moving It
How to move an Image (or a PictureBox) over a Form and see the image, not only its surrounding frame, during the move phase. Basically, my code looks as follows:

[vbtemp]
Private Xi As Single
Private Yi As Single

Private Sub Card_MouseDown(Index As Integer, Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
If Button = vbLeftButton Then
Card(Index).Drag vbBeginDrag
Xi = X
Yi = Y
End If
End Sub

Private Sub Form_DragDrop(Source As Control, X As Single, Y As Single)
Source.Move X - Xi, Y - Yi
End Sub

Private Sub Card_DragDrop(Index As Integer, Source As Control, X As Single, Y As Single)
Source.Move Source.Left + X - Xi, Source.Top + Y - Yi
End Sub
[/vbtemp]

The 'Card' is an Image (or a PictureBox) located in a control array. The code works fine, but I can't see the card face while I'm moving it.

Moving An Image
I tried borrowing the code from ?????'s pacman example

'figure out where we WANT to go....
Select Case KeyCode
Case vbKeyLeft:
ShpTestShooter.Move -350
Case vbKeyRight:
ShpTestShooter.Move 350
End Select
End Sub

Private Sub Form_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
Select Case KeyAscii
Case vbKeyLeft:
ShpTestShooter.Move -350
Case vbKeyRight:
ShpTestShooter.Move 350
End Select
End Sub

Private Sub Form_KeyUp(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
Select Case KeyCode
Case vbKeyLeft:
ShpTestShooter.Left = ShpTestShooter.Left - 350
Case vbKeyRight:
ShpTestShooter.Left = ShpTestShooter.Left + 350
End Select
End Sub

arrrrggggh!!
how did he managed to get his pacman working???
My program refused to respond to my pressed keys
which are arrow buttonws
Put a breakline, it absolutely refused to go there

Image Moving
How can you get a picture box or an image to move across the screen. I'm guessing you can use a timer, but am not quite sure how to set up the timer. What I have is... a for next loop in a sub called PlaneMove (I call that sub in GameLoop). So, in this sub, I set the image.visible = true, and then the for next loop is
For i = 1 to MAXPLANEX (MAXPLANEX is the end of the form to the right)
Picture.move i, Y (Y is an int(Rnd) formula to make the y coordinate a random number)
Image.move i, 0 (I don't know why, but I can't get the picture box to move across the screen without an image moving across the screen also, but if I just have an image it jitters, and has problems.)
Next i

So anyway, the result of the for next loop is that it works, the Picture Box of an image of a plane moves across the screen very smoothly, but there is one problem. The whole loop has to go through before any other action can be done, and in this case in this game, Player 1 is a tank that has to shoot the plane, and it should be able to move left and right, and up and down, with the max y coordinate set at an integer so that it can't pass that integer. The problem is, the plane has to move through the entire screen, and only after it passes, will the tank move to the cursor position, and Player 1 can't shoot at all, because as soon as the plane goes through the loop and gets to the end of the screen, and once the new tank picture is drawn at the tank coordinates, the planeloop starts again, and therefore there is no time for the ball to shoot out and move. I'm guessing that with a timer, the plane can move through the screen, and Player 1 can do all of the other actions without any problem, but I just can't figure out an algorythm for the timer, so I'm just basically stuck in an everlasting loop... both in the game and in the code... any suggestions?

Moving A Image
here is my code:

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
imgshield.Move Left - 100, Top + 1000
End Sub

i've placed my code in the timer and form coding areas but it still won't work... why won't it... I want it to move constantly I.E.: like this simple little "."

I want it to go like this:
. . . . . . . .

P.S. my interval's set at 1000

Moving Image Help
Hi everybody!
can anyone tell me agood way of making an image float randomly around the screen? i've tried 'do until ' and 'if then' without getting the results I want.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Moving An Image
Thanks to the guy who helped me move the image around the screen by using the keys but i have another problem. How do i make it so that when the user presses the keyboards left arrow, the image moves left but changes to another image. e.g.

i want to move the elephant image left
when i press left i want to move the image but change the image to one that is of an elephant facing left

how do i do this with al the arrow keys?

Moving Image W/ Mouse
I wanted to have an image move according to the mouse cursor. I've managed to do that with a mousemove procedure on the form. However, the image moves fine on the right side of the screen, but the image doesn't move so smooth on the left side. I'm not sure why there would be a difference, and I cannot change the effect.

Moving Image- Flashes
Hi,

I've got a very simple program, where a image in VB moves around the screen. To get it to move smoothly, i've put a timer on at 1ms, and it moves 1 pixel every ms. It works great.
However, the image "flashes" as it moves- black lines appear down it- like watching a TV screen through a camera. I've tried changing it to 10ms, 10 pixels, etc, but that doesn't really help much, since it is jerky.

Moving Image Too Fast...
Im working on a game that sets a image's position every 500
milaseconds, it works fine just looks well.... dumb... it shows the image move over then down kinda like streaking it to its position, I think bitblit will fix this but id rather not get into all that if there is an easyer way and yes it is very inportent that it sets the position every 500 milaseconds

Image Loading/moving
I was wondering if there is a way to load or move an image from a different form.

For example, if I have a picture in Form2.frm and I want to be able to display that image in Form1.frm at different times during the program, what would I do? I want to do this so that I can just store all my pictures in a form separate from my game and just call the images whenever needed.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Moving An Image With The Mouse
hey all, just wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of moving an image by clicking on it, and while holding the mouse button down and moving it in any direction, how to change the properties of the image(in this case, the .left, or .top properties)
Thanks in advance.
