A strange minor problem in moving a picture from a box to another

Question

Hey Guys. I am having this simple line of code:

Image1.Image = vImage.Image

Image1 is a picture box in child window and vImage is a picture box in parent window. When I open the child window for the first time, I see a complete blank picture in Image1 while at the same time vImage is having a picture on it. When I Hide and reopen it again It has the picture on it. What is the problem and how can I fix it in my Code?

Thank you

Add Me.Refresh() after that statement. This will call the Paint-events (so does hiding and showing your Form.

Thanks but when I added this to my code it is not working also – Faulty Orc Feb 25 '11 at 11:37
When I add Me.Hide() and Me.Show() to it, it works fine but It will appear with a blink, how can i avoid that? do you know? – Faulty Orc Feb 25 '11 at 11:44
Try Image1.Invalidate() or a combination of both. Not sure if this will work, but just give it a try. – Koen Feb 25 '11 at 11:45
@Faulty Orc Did Invalidate() work? Or did you find another solution? – Koen Feb 25 '11 at 14:28
