Light, your method is great! I was using the method shown in mxs reference where you get all the pixel values in an image and store them then you create a bitmap from them… Got to change some stuf around now

Hey Guys,
Interesting thread! I wrote a struct library while back that does all this with one or two lines of code! It may need some cleaning up to go public.
Basically, you assign a button’s image like this:
iconUtils.setButtonIcon ro1.btn1 #load
iconUtils.setButtonIcon ro1.btn2 #save
iconUtils.setButtonIcon ro1.btn3 #refresh fg:green
iconUtils.setButtonIcon ro1.btn4 #cross fg:red
And you convert b/w icons to code like this:
iconUtils.getIconDefs "c:/temp/icons/*.bmp"
The last bit is essential, as it means you can easily add your own icons to the library. I’ll have a look, add some comments and get something online.
Cheers,
Dave
Hey Dave,
It looks very interesting. I will be sure to take a look.

Nice one Dave, looks promising. I’ll look forward to seeing it. That is exactly the sort of thing which could save loads of time when designing and building UIs.
