Load Toolbar example question

[Andy]

Hi everyone,

Sorry to post another question so soon but I do not understand two things about the loadtoolbar example.

1. How does ebasic know each icon in the toolbar.bmp file should be a separate button ?

2. How on earth was the bmp file made in the first place as it contains several images ?

Can anyone explain or help me with this one as I would like to create my own bmp file to use in a toolbar.

Thanks,
Andy.

1. How does ebasic know each icon in the toolbar.bmp file should be a separate button ?

Because it is being used as a toolbar and that is the nature of a toolbar.
Sort of like asking how does ebasic know to center the text in a button.
It is programmed that way.

2. How on earth was the bmp file made in the first place as it contains several images ?
Can anyone explain or help me with this one as I would like to create my own bmp file to use in a toolbar.

I use the little utility program ToolBar Paint which is attached.
