GIF or JPEG?

[Arn Cota]

Hi, is there a .NET CF control for displaying a JPEG or GIF image?

Thanks!

The regular PictureBox will do that.

Ah thanks, was this changed from EVB? Seems like in EVB, the picture box was
very picky about its BMP formats even.

Thank you

I can't say that it was changed from eVB, because .NetCF + VS.NET + VB.NET
(C#) is completelly different and designed from ground up to be a more
powerful, flexible and a tool of choice for mobile development.

And BTW, people more tend to compare .NetCF to it's big brother .NET...

A whole lot of things has changed since eVB...

Yup. Where to begin

A whole lot of things has changed since eVB...

But PictureBox can not display an animated GIF, can it?
The GIF is static in the PictureBox...

Any controls can do this?

No, it can not.

Here's a workaround solution:
