I am experimenting to show device's battery percentage with sets of image that's shown on a PictureBox. Here's my code (I put it on a timer)
`
Dim psBattery As PowerStatus = SystemInformation.PowerStatus
Dim perFull As Single = psBattery.BatteryLifePercent
Dim perFull2 As Single = perFull * 100
If psBattery.PowerLineStatus = PowerLineStatus.Online Then
If perFull2 > 96 Then
PBBatt.Image = My.Resources._100p
ElseIf 76 < perFull2 < 95 Then
PBBatt.Image = My.Resources._87p
ElseIf 51 < perFull2 < 76 Then
PBBatt.Image = My.Resources._75p
ElseIf 38 < perFull2 < 51 Then
PBBatt.Image = My.Resources._50p
ElseIf 27 < perFull2 < 38 Then
PBBatt.Image = My.Resources._37p
ElseIf perFull2 < 26 Then
PBBatt.Image = My.Resources._25p
End If
ElseIf psBattery.PowerLineStatus = PowerLineStatus.Offline Then
If perFull2 > 96 Then
PBBatt.Image = My.Resources._100up
ElseIf 76 < perFull2 < 95 Then
PBBatt.Image = My.Resources._87up
ElseIf 51 < perFull2 < 76 Then
PBBatt.Image = My.Resources._75up
ElseIf 38 < perFull2 < 51 Then
PBBatt.Image = My.Resources._50up
ElseIf 27 < perFull2 < 38 Then
PBBatt.Image = My.Resources._37up
ElseIf perFull2 < 26 Then
PBBatt.Image = My.Resources._25up
End If
End If
`
The problem I got is that the PictureBox only show correct image when my battery percentage is > 96 and < 26, other than that it showed _87up/_87p
I tried to use OR
operator (So instead of 76 < perFull2 < 95
, I changed it to perFull2 > 76 OR perFull2 < 95
and changed the type of perFull
and perFull2
to Integer
, but it didn't work, the result is still the same as previous code.
So, how can I mitigate this issue?
CodePudding user response:
you need to cast the numbers to single using CSng also you don't need to provide a range for your conditions, see the following code.
Dim x As Single = 88
If psBattery.PowerLineStatus = PowerLineStatus.Online Then
If x > CSng(96) Then
MessageBox.Show("96")
ElseIf perFull2 > CSng(76) Then
MessageBox.Show("76")
ElseIf perFull2 > CSng(51) Then
MessageBox.Show("51")
ElseIf perFull2 > CSng(38) Then
MessageBox.Show("38")
ElseIf perFull2 > CSng(27) Then
MessageBox.Show("27")
Else
MessageBox.Show("26")
End If
End If
