Title: bitmaps on buttons
Post by: TexasPete on August 14, 2009, 05:01:29 AM

below is some pulled out example code

SETCONTROLTEXT wMain1,7,GETSTARTPATH+"Resources"+\\+"deletey.bmp"
CONTROL wMain1,"B,Button6,356,4,70,70,@CTLBTNBITMAP ,7"

The button is not showing bmp. Do I have to use load bitmap as well?
Does it take three lines of code.

you're creating the button after you set the text

therefore you are setting the text for a button that doesn't exists.

Even if you had them in the correct order it still wouldn't work.

Code Select

GETSTARTPATH+"Resources"+\\+"deletey.bmp"
should be

Code Select

GETSTARTPATH+"Resources\\deletey.bmp"

GETSTARTPATH+"Resources\deletey.bmp"

Creative doesn't use escape sequences so it is just a backslash
