images in editorgadget?

well, i'm currently working on a project where it would be beneficial to have images in editorgadgets... but i don't know if it's even possible... when i looked up addgadgetitem in the help, it didn't even make mention of using the command with editorgadgets. (this was my first thought, as it supports images for other gadgets)

does anyone know if it can be done, and maybe even how to do it?

Thanks in advance

well... i'll take the lack of response as a resounding "maybe"

oh well, i guess i didn't really need it anyhow.

I wonder.. Is there anything in Rich Text that allows enbedding of images in documents?

I'll have to look that up!

As far as I know, there is no way to insert any kind of media in a rich edit gadget (at least that you can see).

The RTF format does support the inclosure of media, but it does not display it. It just stores it inside the file (very similar to an email with attachments).

If it is only for displaying purposes, a WebGadget() might be a good choise
here.

Just a thought...
