Loading image from support file

Postby mreith » Sun Jul 09, 2006 11:27 pm

Is there a way to load an image from an image file within the support files folder?

Thanks,

Mike

Are you trying to make billboards? Use the Flash or HTML dialog controls.

Actually, I have a suite of products that I would like to keep a unified theme but have individual product branding. By being able to load an image at runtime I would be able to keep the unified theme and have an image in the support path that I could load for product branding. HTML and Flash would not quite work the way that I desire.

Hi Mike,

You can set text at runtime, but not images. Sorry!

If your brands are limited in number you could pre-build all dialogs and conditionally show them at run-time (or conditionally include them at build-time) based on the product at hand.

This ability is certainly not a show stopper for me.

Thanks,

Mike
