The problem:
When you use PB's Visual Designer and for example create an Image gadget and specify "D:\projects\mydemo\image.bmp" it creates this code:

Code: Select all

LoadImage(#Img_Window_1_0,"D:\projects\mydemo\image.bmp")

Not very portable, and also in the case of program resources itd be nice to embed those

SIMPLE SOLUTION! - it would be great if there was simply an "Embed picture" checkbox option alongside gadgets that have images so that the generated code instead would be something like this:

Code: Select all

CatchImage(#Img_Window_1_0, ?ImageBegin, ?ImageEnd-?ImageBegin)
DataSection
  ImageBegin:
  IncludeBinary("D:\projects\mydemo\image.bmp")
  ImageEnd:
EndDataSection

Thankyou for considering

This option already exists.

Look in the Form menu -> Picture Manager, there you can set a checkbox "CatchImage" and also an relative path to the picture.

GOOD IDEA WASNT IT!

I've never even noticed the Picture Manager before! Thankyou for pointing it out - it's my new favorite IDE feature after Lock checkboxes for resizing
