REBAR/TOOLBAR

Marc van Cauwenberghe · December 15, 2011, 01:27:28 PM

Hello,

I have not used a rebar/toolbar yet but I gave it a try.
I added a bmp that shows up in designer but when does not show up after producing an exe.

What am I doing wrong.

Marc,

When I looked at your project, the firefly generated resource file "CODEGEN_GGSCH_RESOURCE.rc" contained:

Code Select

IMAGE_IMPORT1 RCDATA DISCARDABLE "..\\IMAGES\\IMPORT1.BMP
Paul will need to address that. As far as I know, it should be:

Code Select

IMAGE_IMPORT1 BITMAP DISCARDABLE "..\\IMAGES\\IMPORT1.BMP

To get it to work, I added a resource file manually and pasted the line above. It worked... but the "transparent" displays as white. I don't have much experience with drawing buttons and toolbars, so I didn't look into that.

Thank you very much David.

I changed the 'Change Format' in the Image Library Manager to BITMAP, although the image is BIPMAP.
Transparency is still an issue but I think bitmaps can't handle that.

Best Regards,
Marc

Ah... I haven't used the Image Library Manager. I will check it out. Thanks!

As far as I know transparency works with .ico format only.
(See attached modified project.)

Thank you Rolf,

I will try again.

Attachment seems to point to index.php or is something on my computer?

Must be with your computer. Over here it starts the download.

Marc,

Jose pointed out to me a while back that Firefox 8.01 is doing that. Once downloaded, rename the .php to .rar and open it.

Wow David,

You are right, still strange

Marc

David Kenny · December 21, 2011, 04:56:14 AM

Well, I'm betting it's not supposed to behave like that.... So, I give you strange. I expect it will get fixed next minor release. (Were you saying I was right, and I'm still strange? My kids might agree with the second one, but never the first.)

Same over here

It's good not to be alone!
