Picture Methods/Properties through Scripts

[Jwphilippi]

Is there away to access extended functionality with Picture object through scripting (i.e. Picture1.Image = blah.jpeg). Currently it only has available properties such as Visible or Enable and so on. Or do you have to create a System.Windows.Forms object and build out a PictureBox?

Install Microsoft Visual Studio (Full or C# Express), and set it up as a external IDE. There is forum post how to do that.

iX Script IDE only shows common properties / function for each object that are "safe/simple" to use for any user (script expert or not)...

The properties and function can be called from iX but they are not visible.

But when you have a look in Visual Studio you will see more.

Picture1 is actully m_Picture1, so if you need to get the real object access it via the real member varible (not the adapterd version).

Thanks Edmund, you are the man.

Ok, follow up question. Is there a good way to convert type System.Drawing.Bitmap to Neo.ApplicationFramework.Interfaces.INativeBitmap?

[Edmund]

Not sure why you want to convert it, but INativeBitmap is a Interface and System.Drawing.Bitmap is a class.

A class can implement a Interface but not be converted to one.
