You're right, it's perl, so it can be done :-) I'm also a strong believer in the perl methodology (mentioned several times in the Camel book) of laziness :-)
I'd like to avoid using a icon file (except maybe a template file), because I think that I would end up with way to many discrete icon files.

Technically speaking *anything* can be done :p I'm sure one of the more accustomed BitmapInline people can set you up. Either by creating the image or by loading the icon from a file, this can be done. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Millham Sent: Wednesday, February 22, 2006 3:35 PM To: perl-win32-gui-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [perl-win32-gui-users] A slightly OT question, how to create an icon on the fly Hi all, I'd like to be able to have an icon (displayed in the system tray) that is created "On the fly". Something like the W2K/XP task manager icon, but with text indicating the percentage overlaid. I know that I could do this by creating 100 discrete icons, but what a pain this would be. (Actually what I'd ultimately like to do would probably require 1000 icons!) Is there a module to create simple graphics? I could create the icon, and use BitmapInline to import/display it. Can this be done, or am I crazy. Brian Millham This message traveled at least 44,000 miles to reach you! Creator of the DW6000 Monitor http://www.millham.net/dw6000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- avast!
