picDecrementorPicture |
A string expression specifying a file containing a graphic. |
At design time: A graphic can be loaded with the Clipboard Copy, Cut, and Paste commands. When setting the DecrementorPicture property, the graphic is saved and loaded with the form. If an executable file is created, the file contains the image.
At run time: A graphic can be loaded using the Clipboard methods such as GetData, SetData, and GetFormat with the nontext Clipboard constants ACFBitmap, ACFMetafile, and ACFDIB, which are listed in the object library in the Object Browser. When a graphic is loaded at run time, the graphic is not saved with the application. Use the SavePicture statement to save a graphic from a form or picture box into a file.
Note: At run time, the DecrementorPicture property can be set to any other object's DragIcon, Icon, Image, or Picture property, or the graphic can be assigned by the return of the LoadPicture function. The exception to this is the Picture property of the ListImages object, which is a read-only property.
A picture can also be used as the background with text over it for some attractive combinations.
The following statement changes the ASlider's DecrementorPicture to a given image file:
sld1.DecrementorPicture = LoadPicture ("c:\dirname\filename.bmp")
DecrementorColor, DecrementorHeight, DecrementorLeft, DecrementorTop, DecrementorWidth, IncrementorPicture
