Hello again
I am currently creating an app and i want to be able to get the colour of a pixel, but in a picturebox.
Example: I click anywhere in the picturebox and it will give me the color of the pixel I clicked.
Does anybody know how to do that? Thanks in advance

I actually know how to do it, but it wont be the picturebox only, you would have to do it yourself. So that when you click, it knows on what pixel you have clicked? thats easy men. I will just give you some help I wont write the full code!

Make 3 labels. and 1 extra picturebox.
The labels are for the red, green and blue values, the picturebox is for the whole colour.

            Dim lColor As Integer
            Dim lDC As Integer
            lDC = GetWindowDC(0)
            lColor = GetPixel(lDC, MousePosition.X, MousePosition.Y)
            Dim r As Integer = lColor Mod 256
            Dim g As Integer = (lColor \ 256) Mod 256
            Dim b As Integer = lColor \ 256 \ 256
            PictureBox1.BackColor = Color.FromArgb(r, g, b)
            Button1.Text = r
            Button2.Text = g
            Button3.Text = b

and you would need this declarations just below public class form1.

Private Declare Function GetPixel Lib "gdi32" (ByVal hdc As Integer, ByVal x As Integer, ByVal y As Integer) As Integer
    Private Declare Function GetWindowDC Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Integer) As Integer

If the picturebox contains a bitmap then you can use the GetPixel method to retrieve the pixel of a specific point.

DirectCast(pb1.Image, Bitmap).GetPixel(1,1)
