I like to know the Id of icons after reading them from XML and importing into an ImageManager.

The XML-File is created from an ImageManager and looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<DesignerFile CompactMode="1" Schema="33">
    <Images>
        <IconSet Id="4">
            <Icon Width="16" Data="ABAAAAA..."/>
        </IconSet>
        <IconSet Id="2">
            <Icon Width="16" Data="ABAAAAAABCAAAAAAE...

What I need are the Ids of the Icon: 4, 2, ...
Where can I find this Id's in the ImageManager.Icons?
Is this information lost after import?

Additional question: Do the icons with alpha blending still have alpha blending after this export and import?

Code fragments to
SaveIcons:

Dim myStateOptions As StateOptions
Set myStateOptions = CommandBars1.CreateStateOptions
myStateOptions.SerializeImages = True
myStateOptions.SerializeLayout = False

Dim PropExchange As PropExchange
Set PropExchange = CommandBarsGlobalSettings.CreatePropExchange
PropExchange.CreateAsXML False, "DesignerFile"
CommandBars1.DoPropExchange PropExchange, myStateOptions
PropExchange.SaveToFile App.Path & "\Icons.xml"

LoadIcons:

Dim myStateOptions As StateOptions
Set myStateOptions = CommandBars1.CreateStateOptions
myStateOptions.SerializeImages = True
myStateOptions.SerializeLayout = False

Dim PropExchange As PropExchange
Set PropExchange = CommandBarsGlobalSettings.CreatePropExchange
PropExchange.CreateAsXML True, "DesignerFile"
If PropExchange.LoadFromFile(App.Path & "\Icons.xml") Then
    CommandBars1.DoPropExchange PropExchange, myStateOptions            
End If

Hi,

1. Indeed there is no way to enumerate images in eimagemanager. You can only loop all Ids and check if GetImage will return something :(

2. alpha blending will be fine :)
