I'm thinking that although it's documented that way, it's a bug that the siControlBitmap control can't refreshing itself i you update the file path attribute. It should at least redraw, it's ok if it doesn't resize because that does technically require a Refresh() to resize neighbours.
A work-around may be to use a siControlSynoptic and change the parameter value to change the path of the bitmap.
