Hi,

I am doing a battleship project in a C ++/C sharp course and is wondering how one can change the image of a title when hover or clicked on. To explain further, below is a mock up image of what I want to achieve:



The titles used above are pictureboxes and unless there is a easier way, I am thinking of using a different title pic [darker blue] when highlighted. I am thinking it would be something like

private void Tile1A_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace WindowsFormsApplication2
{
	public partial class Form2 : Form
	{
		public Form2()
		{
			InitializeComponent();
		}

		private void Tile1A_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
		{
		WindowsFormsApplication2.Resource1.tilehl = WindowsFormsApplication2.Resource1.tile;
		}

However, when I try the line above, visual basic mentions something like "WindowsFormsApplication2.Resource1.tilehl' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only"

Are there a way to alter one image in a picturebox to another? Thanks

Mod Edit:
When posting code please use code tags like below.

What you would want to do is hook into the MouseEnter and MouseLeave events of the picture box. In the MouseEnter event you would just set the Image property of the picture box to be the image you want displayed. On the MouseLeave event you would switch back to the old image.

Thanks. You suggestion helps whereas it is what I want to do (I tested it using textboxes) but the code I use still doesn't work.

What I mean is that I tried the codes below to try to change the image in the picturebox:

WindowsFormsApplication2.Resource1.tile = WindowsFormsApplication2.Resource1.tilehl;

and

picbox1A = WindowsFormsApplication2.Resource1.tileh;

WindowsFormsApplication2.Resource1.tile is the actual image whereas picbox1A is the picturebox. When I add color=#33CCFF]WindowsFormsApplication2.Resource1.tile = WindowsFormsApplication2.Resource1.tilehl;[/color]
in my source, I would get an error saying "WindowsFormsApplication2.Resource1.tile cannot be assigned to" and if I tried 2nd line, it says that I can't simply convert System.Drawing.Bitmap to System.Windows.Forms.PictureBox

Please, when you are posting code use code tags, not color tags.

For setting the image of the picture box what you would do is cast the bitmap in the resource to an Image.

picturebox1A.Image = (Image)WindowsFormsApplication2.Resource1.tileh;

It works. Thanks.
