Subject: Problem with MessageBar icon

I tried the messageBar with the CJ sample. It works as long as I use the ID 32988 for the Warning-image. Any other ID doesn't work for me?!

In my own code I load an XCB file and then add all icons from a prepopulated ImageManager control with:

CommandBars1.Icons.AddIcons ImageManager1.Icons

If I try using an icon from this collection - ID 32988 or not - I never see any image in the MessageBar (Text and Buttons are OK). BTW: all icons are XP-icons with alpha channels.

Using: VB6 checked under Win2000 and WinVista

Any Idea???

Thanks in advance

Hi,

See Markup caption - "<Image Source='32988'/>" it used '32988' - just replace it for id you need.

Problem only that Markup use Global ImageManager:

CommandBars.GlobalSettings.Icons.LoadIcon App.Path & "\res\Warning.ico", 32988, xtpImageNormal

Sorry Oleg - I changed your RibbonBar sample as follows

I added an ImageManager and supply an 16x16 icon (XP/alpha, ID=32988)

CommandBars.GlobalSettings.Icons.AddIcons Imagemanager1.Icons

Silly enough - I see still the old warning icon from the original sample. I tried also to CommandBars.GlobalSettings.Icons.RemoveAll - nothing helps...

any idea?

Hi,

This will work:

Const ID_IMAGE = 1

CommandBars.GlobalSettings.Icons.RemoveAll
CommandBars.GlobalSettings.Icons.LoadIcon <image path>, ID_IMAGE, xtpImageNormal

    MessageBar.Message = _
        "<Image Source= '" & ID_IMAGE & "'/>"

MessageBar.Message = _
"<Image Source= '1'/>"

Oleg, why can't ID_IMAGE replaced with a string ?

I simply change your .LoadIcon line with that mentioned in my last post. I need to load the icons from ImageManager because we won't load icons at run time.

Thanks for looking at it

Problem solved. I had to set GlobalSettings.Icons each time I load a new commandbar file (.XCB).

Thanks

I'm not convinced !


Set CommandBars1.GlobalSettings.Icons = Me.ImageManager1.Icons

doesn't work, so reusing ImageManager1 is not possible. I don't want to use file I/O for images at runtime in any cases.

Will there be a fix for this ?

/EDIT

The evidence:


Dim ID_IMAGE As Long
Private Sub Form_Load()
    ID_IMAGE = 200
    
    ' --- following line makes trouble in Markup Image
    'Set CommandBars1.GlobalSettings.Icons = Me.ImageManager1.Icons
    ' to reproduce:
    ' 1) uncomment the above line
    ' 2) save project and close
    ' 3) reload project and start
    ' ---
    
    CommandBars1.GlobalSettings.Icons.RemoveAll
    CommandBars1.GlobalSettings.Icons.LoadIcon App.Path & "\info.ico", ID_IMAGE, xtpImageNormal
    
    With CommandBars1.MessageBar
        .Message = _
        "<StackPanel Orientation='Horizontal'>" & _
        "        <Image Height='16' Source='" & CStr(ID_IMAGE) & "'/>" & _
        "        <TextBlock Padding='3, 0, 0, 0' VerticalAlignment='Center'>ID_IMAGE=" & ID_IMAGE & "</TextBlock>" & _
        "</StackPanel>"
        .Visible = True
    End With
End Sub

Using method AddIcons means twice the amount of memory usage, right ? (e.g. ImageManager1 already have 100 images)
