CommandBar SetIconId = Blank image

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,
I am trying to change an image icon to a CXTPControl in the command bars but instead I get blank image. The code I use is that is shown below :

	CXTPControl			*m_pAttachmentControl;
	...............
	m_pAttachmentControl = pGroup->Add(xtpControlButton, IDS_BUTTON_ATTACHMENT);
	m_pAttachmentControl->SetStyle(xtpButtonIconAndCaptionBelow);

	..................

	if (CheckIfExistFileProjects()) {		
		m_pAttachmentControl->SetIconId(IDB_PNG_ATTACHMENT_FULL);
		m_pAttachmentControl->RedrawParent();
	} else {

		m_pAttachmentControl->SetIconId(IDB_PNG_ATTACHMENT_EMPTY);
		m_pAttachmentControl->RedrawParent();
	}

What seems to be the problem in my code ?

Regards,

	Ok, What did I find. I found that XTPImageManager()->SetIcons(........) converts PNG or BMP files to Icons BUT XTPImageManager()->SetIcon(....) and PControl->SetIconId expects exclusively ICONS without the option to convert other formats (like png or bmp) to Icons. So if you try to use XTPImageManager()->SetIcon(....) with PNG your get Blank Dreams ! Any recommendations ? Regards,
