Adding images to WinExplorerBar Groups and Items
posted

I realize this is probably real easy, but I am having one of those days.  I created a WinExplorerBar and added two group with three items each.  I would like to have a different image for each group and item.  I currently can't get any images to display.  I went into the designer, selected the group tab and selected the first group.  In the properties list I expanded the Settings/AppearancsLarge property and then went to the image property and added an image (from an ImageList-size=32x32). I then tried ExplorerBar/Apperance/Image Property and added a different image from an ImageList (I have also tried this with images in a resource).  On the second group I tried to modify the ItemSettings/AppearancesLarge/ActiveAppearance/Image settings and the ItemSettings/AppearancesLarge/Appearance/Image settings with no change.  I am obviously not doing something correctly.

Could someone give me the step by step on adding an image to a group and then different images to other groups/items.

Thanks very much

Rick (BTW - I checked both the online and offline help to no avail).

    I have had the same problem, I am sure there is a workaround but the one I found and so far I am using is:

     

    Create a Image list with the Images you want

    Set the UltraExplorerBar.ImageListSmall to the ImageList you just have added

    Open the Groups Collections and expand the and go to the first node,

    once there to Settins / Aparance Small / Apararence / Image .....select the image from the image list... is a bit of a pain, but the designer remembers the state of the expanded properties tree so when you move to your next node you don't have to expand it... 

     if you find any other way let me know
