Hello,

I am using this code for image display but same images are displaying in all rows, but my images are different for every row.

C#

private void CreateColumns()
        {
            DataGridViewImageColumn imageColumn;
            Bitmap bmpImage = null;
            imageColumn = new DataGridViewImageColumn();
            
            for (int i = 0; i < dgvDisplayTiles.Rows.Count;i++ )
            {

                bmpImage = (Bitmap)Image.FromFile(Application.StartupPath + dgvDisplayTiles.Rows[i].Cells[3].Value.ToString(), true);
                imageColumn.Image = bmpImage;
                imageColumn.ImageLayout = DataGridViewImageCellLayout.Stretch;
                
                //dgvDisplayTiles.Rows.Add();
                dgvDisplayTiles.Rows[i].Cells[3].Value = bmpImage;
                dgvDisplayTiles.Rows[i].Height = 100;
                
            }
            dgvDisplayTiles.Columns.Add(imageColumn);

        }

Please help me, how can display different type of images in all rows.

Thanks in Advance.

You are assigning each loaded image to the same value "imageColumn.Image" and then trying to assign bmpImage to dgvDisplayTiles.Rows[i].Cells[3].Value that presumably is a TextColumn (not good). Add imageColumn to the dgvDisplayTiles before your loop. Delete the assigment to "imageColumn.Image"
Then change your assignment to:

dgvDisplayTiles.Rows[i].Cells[imageColumn.DisplayIndex].Value = bmpImage;

Solution 1

use following before for loop start a new loop or before assigning a value to bmpImage in starts of for loop

C#

bmpImage.dispose();

or

C#

bmpImage = null;

I have writen this code but my problem not solved.
private void CreateColumns()
{
DataGridViewImageColumn imageColumn;
Bitmap bmpImage = null;
imageColumn = new DataGridViewImageColumn();

for (int i = 0; i < dgvDisplayTiles.Rows.Count;i++ )
{
if (bmpImage != null)
{
bmpImage.Dispose();
}
bmpImage = (Bitmap)Image.FromFile(Application.StartupPath + dgvDisplayTiles.Rows[i].Cells[3].Value.ToString(), true);
imageColumn.Image = bmpImage;
imageColumn.ImageLayout = DataGridViewImageCellLayout.Stretch;
dgvDisplayTiles.Rows[i].Cells[3].Value = bmpImage;
dgvDisplayTiles.Rows[i].Height = 100;

}
dgvDisplayTiles.Columns.Add(imageColumn);

}

Hey Ankit try This,

C#

private void CreateColumns()
    {
        var imageColumn = new DataGridViewImageColumn();

        object dgvDisplayTiles;
        for (var i = 0; i < dgvDisplayTiles.Rows.Count; i++)
        {
            var bmpImage = (Bitmap)Image.FromFile(Application.StartupPath + dgvDisplayTiles.Rows[i].Cells[3].Value.ToString(), true);
            imageColumn.Image = bmpImage;
            imageColumn.ImageLayout = DataGridViewImageCellLayout.Stretch;
            imageColumn.Dispose();
            //dgvDisplayTiles.Rows.Add();
            dgvDisplayTiles.Rows[i].Cells[3].Value = bmpImage;
            dgvDisplayTiles.Rows[i].Height = 100;
            dgvDisplayTiles.Columns.Add(imageColumn);
            
        }
    }

Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
Parameter name: index

sry for previous answer see my updated Solution
actually what you are doing is adding only 1 image in that grid move last line in the loop it will solve your problem :)
