Hi svaneenoo,

Welcome to AUTOIT Comuunity.

Here is your script:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
Local $Pic, $msg, $gui,$guiPos,$picPos
Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

Example1()


Func Example1()


GUICreate("My GUI picture", 350, 300, -1, -1, $WS_SIZEBOX + $WS_SYSMENU) ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered

GUISetBkColor(0xE0FFFF)
$Pic = GUICtrlCreatePic("C:\Documents and Settings\SvanEenoo\Desktop\Paint.NET\Images_Hotspot\mouse2.JPG", 50,50) ;make sure extension .jpg or .JPG?
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
$msg = GUIGetMsg()

If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
WEnd

GUIDelete()
EndFunc ;==>Example1

I don't understand what Sh3llC043r's reply is saying, but the suggestion that you need to worry about the case of any letters in a path is incorrect because Windows reads file names without case sensitivity.

I don't see what is wrong with your script as far as showing the image is concerned so I think you need to add some extra code to find the problem.

Try adding

If Not FileExists("C:\Documents and Settings\SvanEenoo\Desktop\Paint.NET\Images_Hotspot\mouse2.jpg") then MsgBox(262144,"Whoops", "No pic")

Hi,

I tried another picture, and it works.

I notice that is does not work with transparent .png

Is this normal known behaviour?

Cheers

Posting an example which uses a jpg for a problem with using a png is not normal behaviour.

Nor, I would like to think, is starting a thread before reading the help.

TEDIT: To use a transparent png for a pic use Yashied's Icons.au3 udf in example forums.
