Still can not upload images other than BMP in most controls, is a topic that I have pending.
I am happy because, now we can use png files for buttons thanks to Mr. Claudio.

But it would be perfect if it can be loaded from .rc file. Do you expect to include this feature too, dear Claudio ?
Hi Pablo:

Code: Select all

Example: MyApplication.RC 
Logo1 BITMAP Logo.BMP
Logo2 JPG    Logo.JPG
Logo3 GIF    Logo.GIF
Logo4 PNG    Logo.PNG
Logo5 TIF    Logo.TIF

First, thanks for the amazing help I find in this forum.

Reading the posts I don't know how to include a png image into a rc file and make it work.
I try to print a PDF with png images inside a rc file. I use Harupdf and the result is very good... when the images are placed inside the same directory than the program. When I try to move the program to another directory, images are lost when printing to PDF.

I'm a newbee here and perhaps the solution is so obvious I'll feel embarrased :roll: when someone answer me, but I can't make it work correctly: I need to include the png images in a rc file just to avoid the presence of these images in a directory (logos from companies and that stuff).

Thanks!!!

Hi Ruiz, do you tried as Claudio has indicated:

At .RC file, for example:
Logo1  BITMAP  Images\Logo.BMP
Logo2  JPG       Images\Logo.JPG
Logo3  GIF       Images\Logo.GIF

Logo4  PNG      Images\Logo.PNG
Logo5  TIF       Images\Logo.TIF

Please note this "Images\" is supposed a sub-folder called "Images" in your current folder.

At your code, let say for buttons:
DEFINE BUTTON ...
     ..//..
     ..//..

     PICTURE "Logo4"
END BUTTON
I'm a newbee here and perhaps the solution is so obvious I'll feel embarrased
Do not need to be like that. Nobody borns knowing everything...

I hope it be helpfull for everyone.

Thanks Pablo for your answer. Your answer is what I did since the first moment. My rc file is just like you suggest, but only works with BMP images. My PDF is OK only when the PNG images are just in the same directory than the exe. My program is working on a lan and I need to keep images out of each working station.
I think the problem is related with being PNG images that Hmg doesn't know how to deal with them inside a rc file. Or harupdf library doesn't make use of rc files. If I don't find a solution, code will be changed to look for PNG images in the server station instead of the rc file or in a working station.
Thanks for all.
