refresh picture

[jacky_ckw]

hi,

GuiCtrlCreatePic("test.jpg",50,20,"","")

anyone knows how i can refresh a picture i placed in my GUI?

i tried refreshing the same location with another picture file but it still shows the previous one...

GUICtrlSetImage

or ..

Dim $pic = GuiCtrlCreatePic("test.jpg",50,20,"","")
;
;Anywhere you wanna update the pic just do below like so:
GUICtrlSetData($pic, $New_Data)

should work too....

;Picture var.
$mypic = GuiCtrlCreatePic("test.jpg",50,20,"","")


;Use this to update $mypic var.
GUICtrlSetData($mypic, "test.jpg")

Note that that that will re-draw the image every time its called (I think)

So calling it too frequently could cause flickering

ok, noted.

actually i have created a button to refresh, so once the refresh button is clicked the picture should refresh.

thanks.

is this code able to refresh my picture with another picture?

let's say that i wan to change to another picture when i clicked on the button...

i tried another filename but it does not refresh to the new picture.

i have thought of a way to change the picture!

after i clicked on the button, the new picture shows with this code.

GUICtrlSetState($pic,$GUI_HIDE)
$pic = GuiCtrlCreatePic("new.jpg",50,20,"","")

if anyone has a better way to this, pls let me know. thanks!
