You don't need any additional tool to use picture ring control: basically you have to develop pictures for all cases (one picture for every image you want to show) and then copy to clipboard and import into the picture control one image at a time (use the Import Picture item in the context menu of the picture ring).
If you want to hide competely all of the picture ring and to show only your images you can paint the control frame in transparent.
You can use Windows Paint to develop images.
By showing the digital display, you can see the number associated with every image, then wiring a numeric constant to the indicator will show the image associated with the value entered.

Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.
