but how can you do it in a win32 api if you have a dialog box as a resource. is there another way of doing it without having a class. with loading a bitmap and then placing it ? gabby
As you surely know you create a button using
CreateWindow, specifying BUTTON as class name. Also here you can specify BS_BITMAP as a window style, and then use BM_SETIMAGE to place an image on the button.

I found that using an Icon on a button worked better than a bitmap (but the process is very similar.) I used the examples in the MSDN library (VC6 version) The SDK-level code I used is something like this:
hwndMyButton = CreateWindow("button", "", WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | BS_ICON | BS_PUSHBUTTON, buttonPosX, buttonPosY, ButtonWidth, ButtonHeight, hwnd, (HMENU)ID_ButtonID, hAppInst, NULL); hButtonIcon = LoadIcon(hAppInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_ButtonIcon)); SendMessage(hwndMyButton, BM_SETIMAGE, (WPARAM)IMAGE_ICON, (LPARAM)(HANDLE)hButtonIcon);I later changed to using a toolbar, because that looks more modern than Icons or Bitmaps on buttons!
