Howdy all,
I have been wrestling over performing a very simple task. Perhaps
I am not attacking the problem from the right angle. All I want to do is
stick an icon on a button. I'm not talking baou tthe notion of icons that
CodeWarrior uses (although maybe I should, I don't understand the
difference between an icon resourse and a bitmap resource). I have
created some bitmaps in CodeWarrior. They are not Form bitmaps, just
regular bitmaps. All I have is their resource ID. Again they aren't
associated with any form.
To display a bitmap I need a BitmapPtr. So the question is, how do I get
from a Bitmap's resource ID to a BitmapPTr.
This was my original plan:
FormPtr myfrm = FrmGetFormPtr(FormID);
VoidPtr * myfrmPP = &myfrm;
BitmapPtr mybmptr;
mybmptr = (BitmapPtr) FrmNewBitmap (myfrmPP,
BitmapRscID,
BitmapRscID,
0,
0);
WinDrawBitmap ( mybmptr, xpos, ypos);
Where:
BitmapRscID is a valid RscID for a bitmap I created in
constructor.
FormID is a valid ID for the form I eventually want to display the
bitmap on.
xpos, and ypos are words specifiying the x&y location I wish the
bitmap to appear at (over a button).
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
NOah
