Picture(Icon) -> Picture(Bitmap) How?
How do I convert a Picture object containing an Icon (from a file) to a Picture object containg a Bitmap with a certain color (pink!) for the transparent portions of the icon?

I have gotten to the point where I have a HBITMAP but how do I create a Picture object that encapsulates this handle?

Thanks.

Checking If A Picture Is An Icon
Hello!

As is the theme of my posts tonight, I'm making a class module which adds/modifies/removes icons in the system tray. It is all working very well but there are a couple of nagging things which I'd really like to clear up, one of which is this:

One of the properties of my class is the Icon property where I pass an icon in a variable of type STDPicture:


Code:
Property Let TrayIcon(picIcon as STDPicture)
'now some gubbins to place picIcon in the system tray
End Property

How would I check that picIcon is always an icon, and not a Bitmap or GIF etc...? You see, I know to always pass an icon but potentially there could be other coders who get to use my class who may not know. Is there a specific ICON variable type or is there a
Code:
TypeOf(picIcon) = vbIcon
sort of thing?

- SysTray Icon From PictureBox.Picture Using Bmp Images
Hi, is it possible to use a picture from a picturebox (16x16 px bmp) for the SysTray Icon?

Normally i use Icons for it, but I was hoping not to have to create 121 seperated icons for this, as i allready have all the pictures in an imagelist, it would take me a bunch of time again.

The Systray Icon doesn't want to appear when using a 16x16 px picture instead of icons. Is this actually possible? Does the Shell_NotifyIcon Icon property only accept Icons?

Thanks at front.

Listview Icon Problem
I'm using a listview to display the results a a quiz that's given to the user.

I want each line to display one of three icons:
"right", "wrong", or "incomplete"

I've added an imagelist with 3 icons that are keyed to match.
I set the imagelist for both the Normal and Small icons properties of the listview.

But when I run the code I always get the 1st icon.
It doesn't matter if I call the icon by key or index.

Any help?


VB Code:
With lsvResults        .ListItems.Clear        For lQ = 0 To UBound(g_lSelectedQs)            If g_tQuestions(lQ).Answered Then                If g_tQuestions(lQ).Correct Then                    sKey = "right"                    lIndex = 1                Else                    sKey = "wrong"                    lIndex = 2                End If            Else                sKey = "incomplete"                lIndex = 3            End If            .ListItems.Add(, , CStr(lQ + 1), sKey, 1).ListSubItems.Add , "|", g_tQuiz.Qs(g_lSelectedQs(lQ)).Question'            .ListItems.Add(, , CStr(lQ + 1), lIndex, 1).ListSubItems.Add , "|", g_tQuiz.Qs(g_lSelectedQs(lQ)).Question        Next    End With

ListView Header Icon
I am having slight difficults with my ListView.

The headers of a listview would be like this when they are loaded:


Code:
|Header1 |Header2 |Header3 |


Then I assign an icon to one of them:


Code:
|Header1 |[ICON]Header2 |Header3 |


Then when I remove the icon, it looks like this:


Code:
|Header1 | Header2 |Header3 |


That is ugly. How can I get the text to go back in the initial position ?

ListView Toggle Icon
Hi all,

I am using a listview control in report view.

I have 2 icons in an image list bound to the listview.
Depending on a certain criteria, a listview item will be assigined a small icon index of 1 or 2 (where 1 = on an 2 = off). I also have full row select set to true.

Now, what I want to happen is this:

When a user clicks an item, the smallicon will change or toggle.

I am using the following code:


Code:
Private Sub lvwMain_ItemClick(ByVal Item As MSComctlLib.ListItem)

With Item
If .SmallIcon = 1 Then
.SmallIcon = 2
Else
.SmallIcon = 1
End If
End With

End Sub



Here is the problem:

If I click on the small icon, the toggle works fine however if clicked anywhere else on the selected row, the icon toggles and then toggles back to its original state. It is like the item click event is firing twice in this instance.

It seems a pretty simple thing to achieve but have not been able to figure it out yet.

Any help is most appreciated.

Cheers

Jack

Listview Icon In Header

Icon Positions In ListView
I am trying to save the icon positions in a listview control so that I can restore them the next time the application is open.

When I save the position, it works fine, however when I restore them, it sets each icon to the correct value but the LV controls moves everything over either to the left or top. I have made sure that the align property is set to none.

Any idea how to either get this to stop happening or work around it?
