Error display image downloaded from a WebClient

05-25-2008 4:05 PM |

i'm downloading an image with a WebClient, and then loading the stream into a bitmapImage, and then displaying it into an Image control, but for some strange reason, if i run the app without stopping the code anywhere, the image doesnt display into the control, instead if i stop the code, and go through the whole thing using F11, then it works.. Even stranger is that if i press F5 after stepping through part of it, then it still doesn't diplay..
Can anyone help? I'm using VB, not c#. I also just noticed that if i run the code that displays the image under InitializeComponent, then it works, if instead a button pressed event executes it, it doesn't display..

I think the image path is incorrect or you may get null instead of picture stream.. Please check the path.. or show us the structure of your projects and the code that you wrote.

No, that's not the case because i just found out that it's actually loading the jpg, but it's like as if it weren't refreshing the image control, because as soon as i change the width of the image control, the image draws the image i just told it to load.. Is there a better way to get it to "refresh"?
Thanks anyway for the reply

Oh ok, thanks, but beta 2 isn't out yet, right? I mean, under the "Get Started" page, i only see the beta 1 runtimes.. is that correct?
Thanks a lot for the quick reply directly from Microsoft,
