Resource hacker .. and bitmap controls
Hey people,

Iam using "Resource hacker" and "ChangeUI"(statement) to modify the UI I want to use during my installation. In Resource hacker; I want to add a bitmap control to my UI but how/where do I specify the bitmap's resource(file) ?

Thank you, VegetaSan.

you need to add it manually on runtime.

use
File /oname=$PLUGINSDIR\bitmap.bmp bitmap.bmp
and
AddBrandingImage /ID=<controlid> $PLUGINSDIR\bitmap.bmp

in .onGuiInit

an error occured:

Error: command AddBrandingImage not valid in function

:/

any ideas when/where I need to use this command then?

its SetBrandingImage

AddBrandingImage adds a new imagecontrol.

use the page's show function instead of global function .onguiinit.

my mistake.

and extract the file in .oninit rather than in .onguiinit
