Display Image on Screen with Button at same Time?

Something is wrong with the follow code:

hWnd = OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 796, 550, #PB_Window_SystemMenu, "Test")
CreateGadgetList(WindowID())
LoadImage(0,"test.bmp")
StartDrawing(WindowOutput())
DrawImage(UseImage(0), 20, 10)
StopDrawing()
ButtonGadget(15, 300, 335, 80, 24, "Quit")
Repeat
EventID = WaitWindowEvent()
Until EventID = #PB_EventCloseWindow
End

You must create a test.bmp to test this. If the ButtonGadget line is ; (rem'd) out, then the test.bmp image is displayed. But not the button. If the the LoadImage, StartDrawing, DrawImage, StopDrawing lines are ; (rem'd) out, then the button Quit is displayed but not the image. It's an either or situation. I can get either one to display on the window, but not both at the same time. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Alright, I solved my problem by switching two lines to this:

hWnd = OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 796, 550, #PB_Window_SystemMenu, "Test")

CreateGadgetList(WindowID())
ButtonGadget(15, 300, 335, 80, 24, "Quit")
LoadImage(0,"test.bmp")
StartDrawing(WindowOutput())
DrawImage(UseImage(0), 20, 10)
StopDrawing()

Repeat
EventID = WaitWindowEvent()
Until EventID = #PB_EventCloseWindow

End

Notice the button is created first, then the image created second. By simply putting things in this order, it works! For some reason the image must be drawn after the buttons.

Hi Fred. You are right, it stopped working. Can you give me an example of using ImageGadget(), there isn't one in the Help docs.

For example, this code below doesn't work:

hWnd = OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 796, 550, #PB_Window_SystemMenu, "Test")

CreateGadgetList(WindowID())
ButtonGadget(1, 315, 160, 102, 29, "Option1")
ButtonGadget(2, 315, 200, 102, 29, "Option2")

LoadImage(0,"test.bmp")
StartDrawing(WindowOutput())
DrawImage(UseImage(0), 0, 0)
StopDrawing()
ImageGadget(3, 10,10,150,150,0)
ClosePanelGadget()
SetWinBackgroundColor(hWnd, RGB( 34, 85, 136))
Repeat
EventID = WaitWindowEvent()
If EventID = #PB_EventGadget
Select EventGadgetID()
Case 1 ; Quit...
FreeGadget (1)

Case 2 ;
FreeGadget (2)
EndSelect

EndIf

Until EventID = #PB_EventCloseWindow
End

ImageGadget needs the ImageID, not the Number, so use it like this:

ImageGadget(3, 10,10,150,150,UseImage(0))

Should work then...
