Thank you! The brackets solved it.

Have a nice day!

I am using this code to save image...

System.Drawing.Bitmap bi = new System.Drawing.Bitmap(panel1.Width, panel1.Height);<br />
                            panel1.DrawToBitmap(bi, new System.Drawing.Rectangle(0, 0, panel1.Width, panel1.Height));<br />
                            bi.Save(@"c:\Bcodetest.jpeg", ImageFormat.Jpeg);

This code running successfully but i want that user can define his own path where he wants to save image how can i do that...

i am using savefiledialog to do that but i am unable to do that...

Hi,

show the code you tried and be specific about how it failed.
or read the documentation.
or look at one of many CP articles that are bound to use SaveFileDialog...

Hi,

you failed to state what the problem is.

I do have some suggestions for you:

1. ShowDialog() returns a DialogResult, you should check it, and do nothing
when the user cancels.

2. SaveFileDialog class has a public Dispose method, you MUST call it when done;
one way of doing it correctly is with a using statement.

3. OpenFile() returns a stream, which you don't really need. Better use FileName
instead.

4.
Typically file extensions use lower-case, so ".Jpeg" is a bit peculiar. Also
a lot of JPEG files use ".jpg"

5.
You always save in JPEG format, but also accept ".bmp" and ".gif" extensions;
it does not look like a good idea to store a JPEG format in those.

6.
when folder is a string, folder.ToString() does not make sense, just use folder.

7.
Your folder strategy is weird: you come up with a folder value for each image;
if your program runs fast enough two or more images will end up in the same
folder, but when your PC is loaded somehow, they all may use different folders...
You may want to read my timers article.

Sir,
My problem is when i save image image then it save the file but it does not contain any thing means blank file is saved...
now i have made certain changes..

SaveFileDialog slv = new SaveFileDialog();<br />
                    slv.DefaultExt = "Jpeg";<br />
                    slv.FileName = DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks.ToString();<br />
   slv.Filter = "Jpeg Images|*.jpg|Bmp Images|*.bmp|Gif Images|*.gif";<br />
                    slv.FilterIndex = 2;<br />
                    slv.Title = "Save images";<br />
                    slv.RestoreDirectory = true;<br />
                    slv.ShowDialog();<br />
   System.IO.FileStream fs = (System.IO.FileStream)slv.OpenFile();<br />
                    for (int I = 0; I < listBoxtextfile.Items.Count; I++)<br />
                    {<br />
       labelBcode.Text = "*" + listBoxtextfile.Items[I].ToString() + "*";<br />
       labelBtext.Text = listBoxtextfile.Items[I].ToString();<br />
System.Drawing.Bitmap bi = new System.Drawing.Bitmap(panel1.Width, panel1.Height);<br />
 panel1.DrawToBitmap(bi, new System.Drawing.Rectangle(0, 0, panel1.Width, panel1.Height));<br />
     bi.Save(slv.OpenFile(), ImageFormat.Jpeg);<br />
                        bi.Dispose();<br />
                    }                    <br />
                    fs.Close();

Hi,

you used a stream, that you did not close and did not dispose of.
Reread my previous reply and follow all my suggestions!

filestream that i have used that is already closed....
now i use dispose method to dispose savefiledialog but still it does not save image it just save blank image...
as i want to save image of panel control that is written in my code...
SaveFileDialog slv = new SaveFileDialog();
slv.DefaultExt = "Jpeg";
slv.FileName = DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks.ToString();
slv.Filter = "Jpeg Images|*.jpg|Bmp Images|*.bmp|Gif Images|*.gif";
slv.FilterIndex = 2;
slv.Title = "Save an Image File";
slv.RestoreDirectory = true;
slv.ShowDialog();
System.IO.FileStream fs = (System.IO.FileStream)slv.OpenFile();
System.Drawing.Bitmap bi = new System.Drawing.Bitmap(panel1.Width, panel1.Height);
panel1.DrawToBitmap(bi, new System.Drawing.Rectangle(0, 0, panel1.Width, panel1.Height));
bi.Save(slv.OpenFile(), ImageFormat.Jpeg);
bi.Dispose();
slv.Dispose();
fs.Close();

SaveFileDialog has a FileName property. You can use this to get the filename that the user has selected from the dialog.

Hi,

I suggest you read the documentation on PrintDialog Properties; they are ordered
alphabetically and you are lucky, what you need is at the beginning...

I am trying to copy a listview's items into an array and make a new array by cloning it. Here is the code which I used

ListViewItem[] tempCollection = new ListViewItem[listView1.Items.Count];
listView1.Items.CopyTo(tempCollection,0);
//Cloning and creating new array
ListViewItem[] clonedCollection = (ListViewItem[])tempCollection.Clone();

I am getting the tempCollection array filled correctly. But after cloning, clonedCollection array is showing all entries as NULL. What I am doing wrong ?

I have to generate a set of PDF files depending on the items selected on the ListView control. Generation of reports is a long running process - I am using BackGroundWorker and running it on DoWork event. As another thread has no access to the GUI elements, I am doing the cloning. I thought of cloning the ListViewItemCollection and using the cloned array. Is there any better approach for this problem ?

try this :

ListViewItem[] tempCollection = new ListViewItem[listView1.Items.Count];
listView1.Items.CopyTo(tempCollection,0);

ListViewItem[] clonedCollection = new ListViewItem[listView1.Items.Count];
listView1.Items.CopyTo(clonedCollection,0);

hope it will help

Why do you think that you have to use the Clone method?

Why are you making a clone that you clone, what's wrong with the first array that you create?

Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

Thanks Guffa for replying me.

As you know, another thread won't be able to access the GUI elements. In my case, I have a ListView where user can select the rows and start the process. So I have to check whether the current row is checked in the thread. When I tried to iterate like listview1.Items it threw "cross thread communication error". So I planned to clone the selected items to a new array and iterate on the cloned array.

Windows applications don't use CSS. It's for web applications.
