m_imglist.Create ( 16, 16, ILC_COLOR4 | ILC_MASK, 4, 1 );

m_imglist.Add ( ::LoadIcon ( NULL, IDI_INFORMATION ));
m_imglist.Add ( ::LoadIcon ( NULL, IDI_WARNING ));
m_imglist.Add ( ::LoadIcon ( NULL, IDI_ERROR ));

I hope this helps u a little.

You can see icons in Demo->Show Balloon->Icon(this is a combo box).

What are the icons u r using ?. in which header file they are declared.

CBitmapButton myButton;

// Create the bitmap button (must include the BS_OWNERDRAW style).
myButton.Create(NULL, WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|BS_OWNERDRAW, 
   CRect(10,10,100,100), pParentWnd, 1);

// Load the bitmaps for this button.
myButton.LoadBitmaps(IDB_UP, IDB_DOWN, IDB_FOCUS, IDB_DISABLE);

You must replace IDB_UP, IDB_DOWN, IDB_FOCUS, IDB_DISABLE with your own bitmap id's that you have imported or added to the project.

Re: How can I use LoadBitmap() for loading a bitmap ON button

Are you trying this in a dialog.

Do you already have a button. If so then you have to add a member variable for that button with type as CBitmapButton and then use AutoLoad(). And don't forget to set the ownerdrawn property to true.

m_YourBmpButton.AutoLoad(IDC_MYBUTTON, this);

and then set the images.

Perhaps you may not have to call AutoLoad(...) if you are adding a member variable.

Re: How can I use LoadBitmap() for loading a bitmap ON button

28-Dec-05 22:30

The problem is that since u r creating button in a function, so it will be allocated on stack. and as the function is returned back ,where u are creating a button, all items are pop out of the stack. So ur button will no longer exists. Either u make it(myButton) member of class or Create the CBitmapButton object on Heap.

The code for creating on Heap is:

<br />
CBitmapButton* myButton = new CBitmapButton;<br />
myButton->Create(NULL, WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|BS_OWNERDRAW, CRect(10,10,100,100), this, 1);<br />
// Load the bitmaps for this button.<br />
myButton->LoadBitmaps(IDB_UPU, IDB_DOWND, IDB_FOCUSF, IDB_DISABLEX)<br />

Plus u must call delete in ur destructor or the entry after the button is not required.

It hope it helps :P

What's this.

You declared m_button in the constructor. You must do it in the header file.

using AutoLoad is easy. But I don't think you will need it. But any way here it is.

m_button.AutoLoad(IDC_BUTTON1, this/*parent window*/);

m_button.SetBitmaps(..........)

This should work.

Make sure that the button in the dialog has the ownerdrawn property set to TRUE

I think this way is easier:

//button must have 'Bitmap' property set to true
CButton* pButton = (CButton*)GetDlgItem(IDC_VIEWSCAPS);
ASSERT(pButton);
if(pButton)
{
	VERIFY(m_bmpBSBitmap.LoadBitmap(IDB_ADD));
	HBITMAP hbmp = (HBITMAP)m_bmpBSBitmap.GetSafeHandle();
	pButton->SetBitmap(hbmp);
}

IDB_ADD is replaced with bitmap resource id
IDC_VIEWSCAPS is replaced with button resource id

make sure you set 'bitmap' property for the button to true
