Using Codejock 24.0.0 I want to use a SVG image directly in Markup code by accessing from the resources. The goal is to create a custom Markup code with different (text) elements and SVG images.

I figured out that I can use the file path to my SVG image in Markup. The following is working fine and the SVG image is displayed.

CString string = _T("<Image Width='100' Height='100' Source='C:\\myFile.svg'/>");	m_wndStatic.SetMarkupText(string);

Now I would like to use a resource ID to use my SVG file in Markup but the following does not work for me:

CString string = _T("<Image Width='100' Height='100' Source='IDR_MY_SVG'/>");	m_wndStatic.SetMarkupText(string);

What can I do to use my SVG image directly in Markup code by using a resource ID?

Did you find a solution yet?

I'm trying to get this working too, but no success so far.

It seems to work with png and bmp resources:

In source file:

CXTPMarkupStatic m_wndTitle;
m_wndTitle.SetMarkupTextEx(_T("<Image Source='res://IDC_IMAGE' VerticalAlignment='Center'/>"));

In resource (.rc) file:

IDC_IMAGE PNG  "drag32.png"

Unfortunately, nothing happens with .xaml or .svg resources.

Unfortunately, I did not find a solution yet. I hope that this will be supported with a future Codejock update.

Thanks for the information about png and bmp resources Thumbs Up
