Draw image on imageButtons

[pochero]

For a digital clock which may change the hour and minute manually. In the example, how can I draw a single digit on the imagebuttons? The digits are images (in the ImageList)
I'm trying with imagelib library, but my brain says stop...
Thank you

What for?
you don't need special libs to just show an image from an image list...

assuming the iist is populated with 60 images(worst case cenario)
imagine the minute to be 15..
Imagebutton1.image = Imagelist1.item(15)

The attached program demonstrates how to draw on an offscreen bitmap and update the ImageButton.

cableguy, one half of a digit is on one imagebutton, the other half on another imagebutton, so i can't do what you say.

Erel, the problem is that i need to write one image on two imageButtons.

Thank you

I've attached an old example which demonstrates how to draw part of an image.
You will need something like that to draw the right part on the right image.

It was very hard for me but finally it works, thank you.

It doesn't work well yet. I get a outofmemoryexception at the device. It seems imagelib objets doesn't free memory when they are reused.
Also the background image of imagebuttons doesn't appear.
There is a refresh problem in windows. At device clock works ok (except for the memory problem)

The attached code shows my problem.

Thank you.

Try to use regular Image controls instead of ImageButtons.
It should work fine with Images.

I need imagebuttons because in my app I can stop de clock and manually change hours and minutes by pressing the buttons (increase and decrease).
May be I should do it whith images and capture the click events. It is more ugly but if it works....
Thank you
