I am working on a ribbonbar application wherein i have different tabs inside it

Each tab contains xtpControlButton inside it

I want to set a png file for each one of them .How could i load them at runtime.

I have not included it inside the .rc file

Thanks in advance

in the ribbonbar sample example pngs are loaded using below

UINT uiGroupFind[] = {ID_EDIT_FIND, ID_EDIT_REPLACE, ID_EDIT_GOTO, ID_EDIT_SELECT};

pCommandBars->GetImageManager()->SetIcons(ID_GROUP_FIND, uiGroupFind, _countof(uiGroupFind), CSize(16, 16));

what if i have not added this png to resource file.

I want some other method which will load this png file given the full path of this file on the disk.

Any method which will take the file path as argument.

thanks

Hi,

1. HBITMAP AFX_CDECL CXTPImageManagerIcon::LoadBitmapFromFile(LPCTSTR lpszFileName, BOOL* lbAlphaBitmap) to load bitmap

2. GetImageManager()->SetIcons(..) to add it to imagemanager.

3. DeleteObject to destroy
