Question

I put a picture box on a form and loaded some picture on it:

View1.Picture = LoadPicture(App.Path & "\sample2.bmp")

When I tried to get the width and height of the Picture property, the values I received are not in pixels nor twips. Does anybody knows how to determine the size of an image in pixels in Visual Basic 6?

Answer 1

They are in himetrics.

Use

With View1
  MsgBox .ScaleX(.Picture.Width, vbHimetric, vbPixels)
  MsgBox .ScaleY(.Picture.Height, vbHimetric, vbPixels)
End With
