Answer 1

Can you post a link to the PictureBox.Move() method you are using?  I can't find it in the documentation. 

The location of .NET controls  is typically changed by assigning a new Point to the Location property.

Answer 2

well i use them for a windows forms application, like this: picturebox1.move = new Point(120, 90);

but thats giving me errors, so i thought, lets try this: picturebox1.move(120,90); but that aint working neither... i hope you understand wut i mean

No!  I don't understand what you mean.  Where can I find the documentation for picturebox1.move?  What are the errors?  What are you trying to do?

Answer 4

ah that way xD, well hmm wait:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace WindowsFormsApplication1
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            pictureBox1.Move = new Point(73, 30);
        }
    }
}

but it gives me this error when i want to use it this way:

Error 1 The event 'System.Windows.Forms.Control.Move' can only appear on the left hand side of += or -= C:\Users\Niels\AppData\Local\Temporary Projects\WindowsFormsApplication1\Form1.cs 21 25 WindowsFormsApplication1

i hope you can help me :D

Answer 5

You code has to conform to the languge specification.  What don't you understand about the explanation of the error.  Did you understand my original post in this thread?  If you aren't trying to change the location of the picturebox, what are you trying to do?

Answer 6

well i want to that when the user presses the button then he actually SEES the picture moving to the other side of the form, is this possible? 

Answer 7

well i want to that when the user presses the button then he actually SEES the picture moving to the other side of the form, is this possible? 

You'll have to learn how to use the help documentation to do that.  Look up Windows.Forms.Timer and PictureBox.Location in the help files.  You'll want to change the location in the Timer.Tick event.
