Make a ToolButton 256 colors

Postby Tranber44 on Thu Oct 10, 2024 2:14 pm

Hello,
I'm trying to create a "Toolbutton" in 256 colors. In 16 colors I get the desired parameters but the rendering is insufficient:

'BtExcel' ⎕WC 'Bitmap' ('G:\Gestcf20242025\FicBas\IcoExcel16.bmp')
'F1' ⎕WC 'Form' ('Picture' BtExcel 1) - OK
PIX CM←'BtExcel' ⎕WG 'Bits' 'CMap'
⍴¨PIX CM
98 98 16 3

If I use a 256 color *.bmp image I cannot retrieve the PIX and CM parameters :

'BtExcel' ⎕WC 'Bitmap' ('G:\Gestcf20242025\FicBas\IcoExcel256.bmp')
'F1' ⎕WC 'Form' ('Picture' BtExcel 1) - Ok
PIX CM←'BtExcel' ⎕WG 'Bits' 'CMap'
⍴¨PIX CM
0 0 0 3
I think I'm missing a step but the documentation is not very explicit on this subject. Can you enlighten me?

Kind regards

See if using the CBits property, instead of Bits and CMap, work for you. / Rav
