Parameter |
Description |
|
|
|
ControlName$ |
String containing the name of the .Identifier parameter associated with a control in the dialog box template. A case-insensitive comparison is used to locate the specified control within the template. Alternatively, by specifying the ControlIndex parameter, a control can be referred to using its index in the dialog box template (0 is the first control in the template, 1 is the second, and so on). |
|
|
|
PictureName$ |
String containing the name of the picture. If PictureType is 0, then this parameter specifies the name of the file containing the image. If PictureType is 10, then PictureName$ specifies the name of the image within the resource of the picture library. If PictureName$ is empty, then the current picture associated with the specified control will be deleted. Thus, a technique for conserving memory and resources would involve setting the picture to empty before hiding a picture control. |
|
|
|
PictureType |
Integer specifying the source for the image. The following sources are supported: |
|
|
|
|
0 |
The image is contained in a file on disk. |
|
|
|
10 |
The image is contained in the picture library specified by the Begin Dialog statement. When this type is used, the PictureName$ parameter must be specified with the Begin Dialog statement. |
|
Example |
Sub Main() DlgSetPicture "Picture1","\windows\checks.bmp",0 'Set picture from a file. DlgSetPicture
27,"FaxReport",10 'Set control 10's image |

Notes |
Picture controls can contain either bitmaps or WMFs (Windows metafiles). When extracting images from a picture library, the Basic Control Engine assumes that the resource type for metafiles is 256. Picture libraries are implemented as DLLs on the Windows and Win32 platforms. |
