I wander how can i let a Label rotate a full 360 Horizontal
( like the xp screensaver)
Around and end at it's normale place.
I cant find anything about this in the helpfiles.

Nightblade
Make 360 you mean charachter reversed
You mean it was like that "<" and become like that ">"
or it was like that "ab" and become "ba"
Omar
No that is not what i had in mind.
What i wanne see happen is that a sample The letter X rotating Horizontal only
let say you you put a clock flat on the table like the time flys bye it rotates
that is what i wanne see this X do to.
Hopes this helps seeing my problem.

There are two ways to do that.
One is to use an animated gif file where the image is rotated through the gif frames.
The other way is much more complex (and elegant). You could use System.Drawing to laod a single image and rotate that. Use a panel as a writing surface and rotate the bitmap with system.drawing in the panel's paint routine. Evoke the paint routine by using a timer which does a panel.refresh

Nightblade,
I don't have vs2008 here so I don't know what's in help but I am sure that system.drawing is documented there. They certainly didn't remove it. Also know that system.drawing is documented in the Object Browser and that's a quick rich resource. Perhaps not rich enough for a new developer, but it's a valuable resource that I recommend.
Thanks Omar
Give me some time to check it out.
i think this is usefull for nicerlooking forms
it opent a new way for me to build forms

Omar thanks
both GDI Samples you gave me is the 101sample of 2003
to convert image in to a tumbnail with the abillity to change size.
No offence butt with this i can increase the size and angles and in that
i can't make a loop or something like that about rotation that i want.
About the links i gave they where for you to use as you see fit in your
Programs. I see more people asking for
Glass buttons Taskbars and on.So i thougth let safe you the search.and provide the code
and step by step walktrue as thanks for your help.
Hopes it helps you.

Ok nightblade,
It's learning time.
Start a project.
Include a reference to system.drawing and write an import statement for it.
Pick the simplest panel possible and gently place it on your form.
Create a Paint event handler for the panel
Examine the e event arg and you'll notive that the e event arg is actually a class with methods and data one of which is a free graphic used for drawing.
Using the graphic: e.graphic play first of all with graphics.drawRectangle.
I am impressed that you said you wanted to learn and it's that spirit that spirit to which I love to resond to,
But this is your time to play.
Internal voice: I'll be there (doing graphics) soon as soon and I have a couple of complex COM calls to work correctly.
peace
Thanks for the Glass Button those was really nice, and 'll use em in my VISTA Project
For Graphic I really don't know a lot me also I'm having a problem
I want to make a picture (any format : JPEG, GIF...) from a label
For example I have a label with a text "Omar" and font "Verdana" so I want to make a picture with Text "Omar" and the same font
If you have an idea about that, don't hesitate
