VB Gui, changing the gui design without changing the window? - Chesso - Mar 10, 2015
Is this possible?
For example say I had a gui on a page I want to be able to change the image (for example change from tutorial to play) This is just an example and doesn't relate but I don't want to have to have the use change the window they're using to use the program I'm writing, What can I do?[/align]

Do you mean altering the GUI programmatically instead of the drag and drop designer?
I am lost.

Uhm, something like this?
The code below will change the image in a picture-box to the file you pointed the path at.
Code
YourPictureBox.Image = Image.FromFile("C:\play.png")* - Chesso - Mar 10, 2015

I'm not sure how to explain this, I've not got any code to show to aid in explanation.
But for example I create a gui called #main and I want to change to another gui so I could change the position of a button without having to open a new window.

In terms of GUI, do you mean a form?

Be as thorough as possible in future. That way, you'll get your answer far quicker. To move a control programmatically:
Code
Button1.Location = New Point(10, 10) 'Move 10px each way from the top left XY axis* - ·Evolved· - Mar 11, 2015
You could do that, or you could do tabs. I don't know which would be better suited to your purpose.

I'd recommend using a tabcontrol, you could also use panels to bring fourth the one you want to use and then hide the other one/s?
