Statusbar Activex (MS commctl32.ocx) picture property

[nottilie]

It's my first question here in the disscussion form. Maybe somebody can help me.

I try to use the statusbar activex to view a few parameters in my application. In principle it works fine but I am not able to set, or get pictures in the statusbar panels using labview code and property (invoke) nodes.
Preseting pictures of the acxtivex control using the righ mouse button and the properties of the control works fine.
I think the problem are the automation nodes, because I don't know how to set the picture reference in the automation nodes linked to the activex "stdole.picture". Maybe there is somewhere the key for solution.

Thanks

Gernot

Hi,

To get pictures in it, use a second ax control, MSComctlLib.IImageList. Use
ListImages property, and then the Add method.

Regards,

Wiebe.
