    Hi there,

    can somebody quickly point me towards how i can add images to my description?
    I'd like to add some small icons next  to my parameters.

    is that possible? maybe in the res file?

    cheers and thanks,
    ello

    It is possible but not simple.  If you don't want them to be buttons, just omit BUTTON from the .res file:

    Omg.. thank you for that. This is quite a lot to just display an image :) And i was planing to add a picture to all parameters because they are hard to describe by words.

    Lets see if i can get that to work...

    kind regards,
    ello

    edit: just wanted to say thank you.. i got it working :)

    just one more question: how can i use a bitmap which contains a bunch of symbols and adress them via an offset? somehow like cinema does it with its interface icons?

    thanks for any input..
    cheers,
