Q&A
Q. | Can I show pictures of file types other than BMP and JPG? |
A. |
Yes. The PictureBox control supports the display of images with the extensions BMP, JPG, ICO, EMF, WMF, and GIF. The PictureBox control can even save images to a file using any of the supported file types. |
Q. | Is it possible to show pictures in other controls? |
A. | PictureBox is the control to use when you are just displaying images. However, many other controls enable you to display pictures as part of the control. For instance, you can display an image on a button control by setting the button's Image property to a valid picture. |
