Simple Picture Control Usage

[jerry1211a]

Hello. I have added a picture control to my dialog application resource file. I dont know how to access it at run time. I thought you would need a pointer, in the same way you access a Edit control: CEdit *p = GetDlgItem(IDC_EDT); p->whatever, etc. So I need a pointer to the control I assume in order to send an image to it. Can anyone help. Jerry

Try a pointer to a CStatic object :) Mark

Ok.

That is the type of control placed on the dialog. You can set a bitmap into it in the designer or at runtime with CStatic::SetBitmap()

By default, the control has an id of IDC_STATIC. Change that to something else. Then use ClassWizard (Ctrl+W) to associate a CStatic object to that control. Then you can call the SetBitmap() method.

Static control is good for show picture but why you want to use Edit Ctrl
