load canvas picture

[gasma1975]

Hi,

How can I Programmatically load a picture file (BMP) in a canvas ?

using CVI 6.0

Thank you,

Very simple. Just:

GetBitmapFromFile(filePath, &bitmap);
CanvasDrawBitmap (panelHandle, PANEL_CANVAS, bitmap, VAL_ENTIRE_OBJECT, VAL_ENTIRE_OBJECT);

Where filePath is the path to the BMP file, and bitmap is an int.

Best Regards,
