I wish to make it where the opacity is the same when I quit the application and reopen it to be the opacity i set it from the trackbar value... hopefully these images help...

    Private Sub TrackBar1_Scroll(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TrackBar1.Scroll

        Me.Opacity = TrackBar1.Value * 0.01
        Form1.Opacity = TrackBar1.Value * 0.01
    End Sub

    Private Sub Timer1_Tick(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
        Label5.Text = TrackBar1.Value
// this is the Label showing the value of track bar 1 which you'll see in the images.

    End Sub

    Private Sub Button5_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button5.Click
        My.Settings.Default("Settings") = "Some Value"
        My.Settings.Default.Save()
//here is the settings in properties to save the value on exit however doesn't work... any ideas? 

    End Sub
End Class

Here are my current setting i set it for now till then

    Private Sub TrackBar1_Scroll(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TrackBar1.Scroll
        Me.Opacity = TrackBar1.Value * 0.01
        Form1.Opacity = TrackBar1.Value * 0.01
    End Sub

    Private Sub Timer1_Tick(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
        Label5.Text = TrackBar1.Value
    End Sub

    Private Sub Button5_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button5.Click
        If Label5.Text = TrackBar1.Value Then
            My.Settings.Opacity = TrackBar1.Value * 0.01
        End If
    End Sub
End Class

  • You're storing opacity as an `Integer` but internally it's a floating-point value (either `Single`, `Double`, or `Decimal`). Make sure you use the same datatypes everywhere. – Dai Oct 31 '16 at 02:07

You are going to want to use the Application Settings to save that value.
