Chapter 1 General Palette : Generic Image Resource

Generic Image Resource

The Generic Image resource allows you to associate a custom image with a predefined resource. This is useful, for example, if you have configured a Generic Adapter Configuration and you wish to represent it with a custom image.

To add an image to a project, follow these steps:

1.

With the General palette displayed in the palette panel, drag a Generic Image resource into the design panel. You now have two choices:

a.

Choose Built-in to associate one of the already available images (for example, a folder icon) with your image. Name the new icon, then choose Browse and select the corresponding (already loaded) image.

b.

Choose Custom to specify an image name and the location where it is stored. You may select the Preview tab to preview the image.

To associate the image with a resource in the project, follow these steps:

2.

Choose the View > Toggle Custom Icon Support menu.

3.

When you select a resource, it now displays an Icon Reference field. Click Browse and select the icon.
