You’ll have to use Timer
to create rotation of the Image
. There is no built in method exists for rotation.
Create a global timer:
Timer rotationTimer;
Initialize timer in the constructor of the form and create PictureBox
MouseEnter
and MouseLeave
events:
//initializing timer
rotationTimer = new Timer();
rotationTimer.Interval = 150; //you can change it to handle smoothness
rotationTimer.Tick += rotationTimer_Tick;
//create pictutrebox events
pictureBox1.MouseEnter += pictureBox1_MouseEnter;
pictureBox1.MouseLeave += pictureBox1_MouseLeave;
Then create their Event Handlers
:
void rotationTimer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Image flipImage = pictureBox1.Image;
flipImage.RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate90FlipXY);
pictureBox1.Image = flipImage;
}
private void pictureBox1_MouseEnter(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
rotationTimer.Start();
}
private void pictureBox1_MouseLeave(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
rotationTimer.Stop();
}
