Refreshing when you can answer your own questions.....

Seems the ImageList default size is 16,16 So everything coming out of it is 16,16
So when i say PictureBox1.Image = ImageList1.Images(0) , the image i'm grabbing is a 16x16 image even though the original picture was 41x41.

Only way around this is to set the ImageList ImageSize to whatever you want the picture to be displayed as (ie 41,41)

Thanks
Harry

  a. Below the image displays just fine in the picturebox (41x41 in a 41x41 picturebox)
  b. Add From ImageList button is clicked w/ the following code:
          Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
              PictureBox1.Image = ImageList1.Images(0)
          End Sub
  And i get the small image which is much smaller.
  c. If i change the sizemode from normal to stretchimage, it distorts the image when i load it from the imagelist.

  This is got to be a bug right in the control?

  Thanks,
  Harry
