I'm trying to migrate some MapBasic programs I wrote several years ago from
MB 3 to MB 4. I have several that build buttonpads and use [used to use...]
custom icons. I'm unable to get this to work with MI 4 [Mac], as MI claims
it's unable to find the icons ["Unable to load external icon source"]...
the relevant [?] snippet is
create buttonpad "True Pad" as
pushbutton calling button_prompt id 1 icon 128 File "truepad"
pushbutton calling button_prompt id 2 icon 132 File "truepad"
and the file "truepad" is in the same directory as the MapBasic
application. If I use the File "" syntax, which worked with MI 3, I get the
same error message. If I delete the File info, the program works just fine,
but uses the default MI icons, which ain't too helpfull.
Any suggestions on how to make this work, or should I just go back to MI 3??
