Hello guys,
I'm programming with visual studio 2019. And I have a problem, I have a table layout of 1 row and 10 collumn in each collumn I have a picturebox inside it. And I want to use this tablelayout to change each of my picturebox image with only an indice and not by using the name of each picturebox. Do you think it is possible ?

What I have tried:

I have tried to use GetControlFromPosition but it doesn't work

Windows Forms, Web Forms, WPF, UWP ... which product and what code are you using?

Well I am sorry but we still cannot guess what your problem is, or even what your code is supposed to be doing.

Are you trying to create a board for a game using a TableLayoutPanel?

No why would I ?

I'm just asking because what you're doing sounds like a lot of previous questions about creating a board for a game using a ton of PictureBoxes in some grid layout.

VB6 used to have controller array's, but those don't exist under .NET at all. You would have to create your own array, using a List<t>, you'd add your PictureBoxes to, in the correct order!

But, you haven't said what you're really trying to do, and why you're doing it with a control array, so it's really difficult to suggest something better.

Okay no I am trying to do a image feed of 10 pictures using tablelaoyoutPanel, and i wanted a clear access to it so that I can use a for loop to update the 10 images instead of calling the picturebox one by one

Then you can create your own array of controls using a List<picturebox>. You'll have to add each PictureBox to the list in the order you want. Then you can use the List index to get at each PictureBox.

Okay thank you I thought about this but i wanted to know if there was a way to do it by using the tablelayout panel.

You can still use the TLP, but the only this it does is assist in layout. It does NOT provide you an index into the controls it "contains"*.

* A TLP is not a really a container. It's an extension to existing controls, adding properties and layout logic to the controls themselves.

Okay understood, thank you very much for these precisions
