Pic problem

[OnTheFly]

Hi, i recently had a problem with background color. Now i also want an image. I do it like this:

expandcollapse popup

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

;Read the GUI size from the config file
$width = IniRead("VelkyPortable/config/conf.ini", "gui", "width", 450)
$height = IniRead("VelkyPortable/config/conf.ini", "gui", "height", 600)

;Read the left position
$left = IniRead("VelkyPortable/config/conf.ini", "gui", "left", "left")

If Not StringIsInt($left) Then
    If StringLower($left) = "left" Then
        $left = 0
    ElseIf StringLower($left) = "right" Then
        $left = @DesktopWidth - $width
    EndIf
EndIf

;Read the top position
$top = IniRead("VelkyPortable/config/conf.ini", "gui", "top", "bottom")

If Not StringIsInt($top) Then
    If StringLower($top) = "top" Then
        $top = 0
    ElseIf StringLower($top) = "bottom" Then
        $top = @DesktopHeight - $height
    EndIf
EndIf

;Create the gui
$gui = GUICreate("VelkyPortable", $width, $height, $left, $top, $WS_POPUP)

$pic_main = GUICtrlCreatePic(@ScriptDir & "/VelkyPortable/gfx/main.gif", -1, -1, $width, $height)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
   
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
Wend

@error is 1 after GUICtrlCreatePic() so the file is found. But the window is just gray. No image. Does anyone know why?

You need to check the value returned by the function to know if _GUICtrlCreatePic could create the picture. @error doesn't get mentioned in the help.

Look at this:

$pic_main = GUICtrlCreatePic(@ScriptDir & "/VelkyPortable/gfx/main.gif", -1, -1, $width, $height)

$pic_main = GUICtrlCreatePic(@ScriptDir & "\VelkyPortable\gfx\main.gif", -1, -1, $width, $height)

The same also for INI path ...

Are you sure that's a problem? I know what you put is the correct way but I think AutoIt will automatically convert '/' to '\' in a path string.

This isn't true... -.- I never moved the "main.gif" to that folder.
