Visit http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/224wtx7a(v=vs.85).aspx[^]

It tells you properties on the picturebox control that alter how the image is displayed. This way you don't actually alter the original image.

Hi,

If you just want to shrink your image then you can use below code, this is quick fix. if you really need to change the size of the picture then you need to write additional code.

To shrink image :

C#

pictureBox1.SizeMode =  PictureBoxSizeMode.StretchImage

To change size of image :
Check this discussion[^]

Thanks

Solution 4

Use that if you wants to keep the size ratio, best mode in most case.

pictureBox1.SizeMode= System.Windows.Forms.PictureBoxSizeMode.Zoom;
