I'm using Autoit to make a game and I need to display pictures of what going on in this 2d story thing

I've tried a few diffrent things resizing both the file and the gui and the the GUICtrlCreatePic

i've tried all the supported file extensions and double and triple checked my file path.

What am I doing wrong here....

Attached pic

Apartment.bmp

There's something odd about your BMP file.  As is, it does not display.  But I brought it into MSPaint and wrote it out under a different name.  It doubled in size and then displayed correctly with your script.  I didn't notice anything in particular except the size.  Both BMPs report as 24 bit.

use Format Factory 2.70 and convert bmp......

Apartment.bmp (Size: 1.25 to 3.30 MB)

The attached BMP is not a BMP but a PNG! And some PNGs making problems using GUICtrlCreatePic directly.

There are some workarounds already posted using GDI+. Just search for it.

When I convert your image to real bmp format than it works as expected.
