• Objective:
VB.Net is a unique language based on Microsoft .Net
Framework. VB.Net has a healing power for Visual Basic
deficiencies and robustness to build advance application
including quality websites. It is gaining popularity due to its
excellent abilities. The number of inbuilt classes in .Net Base
Class Library is so vast that it makes many tough and time
consuming jobs in simple few code steps. Hence there is no
need to write additional code for common routine programs and
behaviours.
Developers are happy that VB.Net is now equipped with

implementation inheritance. They can inherit any base class
created in VB.Net or other .Net compliant language like C#.
With the help of visual inheritance, every control and its
attributes can be inherited and reused to build customized
control. Inheritance has explored all the corners of code
reusability in VB.Net. It is now pure object oriented language.
The error handling skills have been sharpened and highly
structured. We can handle inbuilt error objects and even raise
our own customized error events in VB.Net. It fulfils the
objective of flexible error handling, smart debugging and
mitigating defects at runtime.
Quality web development is now possible in VB.Net. Any type of

website or web-service can be developed with beautiful design
architectures and diverse complexity. Through web-services,
we can access any web server resource including data objects,
any custom file or SharePoint page etc. Normally data returned
by web-service methods is in the form of Datasets. Client
applications which access the web-service, receive the data in
XML format. Nowadays XML, being standard data
representation, is commonly used by .Net compliant languages
to exchange their data through various network protocols
including Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). As XML is very
light, the data communication is fast and can be processed in
secured manner.
With so many special features, VB.Net now comes with
powerful Microsoft Visual Studio Integrated Development
Environment (IDE) and Rapid Application Development utilities.
MSIL code and JIT compilation in VB.Net turns out to easy
deployment and maintenance. Client machine just needs .Net
Framework as pre-requisite and rest of the process is taken
care by CLR during runtime. Thus VB.Net solution needs
minimum time and cost for deployment process. Diverse
applications based on Windows, Web, and Mobile
Communication can be developed with less time and effort.
Here, we are going to analyze the implementation of
Animations and Graphics using VB.Net. With increasing
importance of User-friendly Interfaces more interactive and
expressive pages have become an utmost necessity. VB.Net
features all these important aspects in the form of security,
quality and user-friendly interface.
• Graphics:
• Graphics (from Greek γραφικός graphia) are visual
presentations on some surface, such as a wall, canvas,
computer screen, paper, or stone to brand, inform,
illustrate, or entertain.
• Graphics often combine text, illustration, and colour
• Examples are photographs, drawings, Line Art, graphs,

diagrams, typography, numbers, symbols, geometric
designs, maps, engineering drawings, or other images.
• Uses:
• Graphics are visual elements often used to point readers

and viewers to particular information.
• They are also used to supplement text in an effort to aid

readers in their understanding of a particular concept or
make the concept more clear or interesting.
• Business: Graphics are commonly used in business and

economics to create financial charts and tables. The term
Business Graphics came into use in the late 1970s, when
personal computers became capable of drawing graphs
and charts instead of using a tabular format. Business
Graphics can be used to highlight changes over a period of
time.
• Advertising: It is one of the most profitable uses of

graphics; artists often do advertising work or take
advertising potential into account when creating art, to
increase the chances of selling the artwork.
• Education :Graphics are heavily used in textbooks,

especially those concerning subjects such as geography,
science, and mathematics, in order to illustrate theories
and concepts, such as the human anatomy. Diagrams are
also used to label photographs and pictures.
• Educational animation is an important emerging field of
graphics. Animated graphics have obvious advantages
over static graphics when explaining subject matter that
changes over time.
• The Oxford Illustrated Dictionary uses graphics and

technical illustrations to make reading material more
interesting and easier to understand. In an encyclopedia,
graphics are used to illustrate concepts and show
examples of the particular topic being discussed.
• In order for a graphic to function effectively as an

educational aid, the learner must be able to interpret it
successfully. This interpretative capacity is one aspect of
graphicacy.
• Film and animation Computer graphics are often used in

the majority of new feature films, especially those with a
large budget. Films that heavily use computer graphics
include The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, the Harry Potter
films, Spider-Man and War of the Worlds.
Photograph Drawing Drawing
• Animation:
• Animation is the rapid display of a sequence of images of
2-D or 3-D artwork or model positions in order to create an
illusion of movement.
• Animation is an optical illusion of motion due to the

phenomenon of persistence of vision, and can be created
and demonstrated in a number of ways.
• The most common method of presenting animation is as

a motion picture or video program, although several other
forms of presenting animation also exist.
• Object animation refers to the use of regular inanimate

objects in stop- motion animation, as opposed to specially
created items.
• Graphic animation uses non-drawn flat visual graphic

material (photographs, newspaper clippings, magazines,
etc.) which are sometimes manipulated frame-by-frame to
create movement. At other times, the graphics remain
stationary, while the stop-motion camera is moved to
create on-screen action.

MSIL/IL/CIL:
• IL stands for Intermediate Language.
• MSIL stands for Microsoft Intermediate Language.

• CIL stands for Common Intermediate Language.
• All .Net source Code is compiled with the help of

intermediate language.
• IL is then converted to machine code.
CLR
• CLR stands for Common Language Runtime and

it forms the heart of the .Net framework.
• All language have runtime to take care of the code

execution of the program.
• For eg. In Visual Basic 6.0 has MSVBVM60.dll

(Microsoft Visual Basic Virtual Machine) in visual
basic .net has CLR in java we use JVM (Java Virtual
Machine).
CTS
• CTS stands for Common Type System. In order

that two languages communicate smoothly CLR
has CTS.
• Two different languages communicate Microsoft

introduced Common type system.
• For eg. Integer in visual basic 6.0 and int data
type in c language will be converted into
system.int32 which is data type of CTS.
CLS
• CLS stands for Common Language

Specification.
• This is the subset of CTS, which all .Net language

are expected to support.
• It was always a dream of Microsoft to write all

different languages into one umbrella and CLS is
one step towards that Microsoft has defined CLS,
which are nothing but guidelines, that language
should follow so that it can communicate with
others.

•VB .Net
• VB .Net is a fully object orient programming
Language (VB7.0, VB7.1, VB8.0, VB9.0, VB10.0 or
VBx) all these are versions of VB .Net.
• VB .Net is a platform independent language.

Platform independent means it can run in any
Operating system.
• VB .Net is platform independent because of two

reasons:
1. It can run on any platform or operating system.
2. CLR (Common Language Runtime) can be
manufactured by any vendor or any company.
• VB .Net use common runtime environment which

means it compile as well as run the program but use
more then one language syntax.
• In VB .Net can create three types of applications:

1. Console application
2. Window application
3. Web application
• How to create graphics in VB

.net???
• Some classes used to create graphics:

 To create graphics in VB .Net, we use the
class Graphics.
 To fill the rectangle with any colour, we use
the class Brushes or SolidBrush Class.
 To draw only outline of rectangle/ellipse with
any colour, we use the class Pens.
• Some important methods of this class are:-
 DrawRectangle()
 DrawEllipse()
 DrawString()
 DrawLine()
 DrawIcon()
 DrawImage()
 FillRectangle()
 FillEllipse()
• General Syntax to implement

Methods mention above:
1. To Draw Rectangle Method:

DrawRectangle(colour name using pens class,
x coordinate, y coordinate, length, width)
2. To Draw Ellipse Method :
DrawEllipse (colour name using pens class, x

coordinate, y coordinate, length, width)
3. To Draw String Method:
DrawString (string, set the font, colour name, x

coordinate, y coordinate)
4. To Draw Line Method:
DrawLine(colour name, x1, y1, x2, y2 )
5. To Fill Rectangle Method:
FillRectangle(colour name using brush class, x

6. To Fill Ellipse Method:
FillEllipse (colour name using brush class, x

7. To Draw Icon Method:
DrawIcon (Path of icon class, x coordinate, y

coordinate)
8. To Draw Image Method:
DrawImage (Path of image using image class, x

coordinate, y coordinate)

How to generate animation?
Before knowing How to create or generate Animation

we should know What is animation? Animation is
the rapid display of a sequence of images of 2d or 3d
artwork or what all graphics we have learned creating
in order to create an illusion of motion due to the
phenomenon of persistence of vision and can be
created and demonstrated in number of ways to
achieve this illustration in VB .Net we use timer
control.
This control has two important properties:
1. Enable
2. Interval
 There are two important values of enable property

TRUE and FALSE.
 By default the value of this property is equal to

false.
 Timer control works only when the user set the

value of this property is equal to TURE.
 Interval decide the execution time of coding.
 By default the value of this property is equal to

100.
1000 means approx 1sec.

2000 means approx 2sec.
 The important event of timer control is:
TICK()

Output:
•Advantages of VB.Net
Animation Feature:
• In VB.Net no drawing controls are provided; instead, user

is encouraged to use the GDI + Graphics service directly.
• Virtually, Everything Graphical that used to be in VB 6 has
disappeared in VB.Net
• The new graphical stuff in VB.Net is more powerful,

flexible and structured.
• Using ThreadPool Class, user can run 3 different

animations simultaneously on the same form.
•Future Scope of Animation

using VB.Net:
In the rapidly changing demands for more interactive and user

friendly Applications, Implementation of Animation and graphics
using VB.Net will increase the popularity of VB.Net framework
amongst the Developers. Ease of coding due to inheritance and
object oriented approach will make it suitable for programming
Complex applications.
Moreover, In development of websites and Web-services,

VB.Net has played an important role. Animation and Graphics
feature will urge more and more developers to use VB.Net as a
designing tool.
