Hello,
i have to assign images for toolbars and the ribbon Application Button on runtime from file.
I tried the following Code:
dxRibbon.ApplicationButton.Glyph.LoadFromFile(Directory+'\shopexpress.png');
Then I get an error: Bitmap is not valid (Bitmap ist ungültig)
I hope you can help me to solve this problem.
Best Regards
Johannes Teitge

Hi Johannes,
You should convert a PNG file to a TBitmap before loading it to the Glyph property. This can be done by means of the TdxPNGImage class (dxGDIPlusClasses.pas):
1) call its LoadFromFile method to load an image from PNG file;
2) call its GetAsBitmap method to obtain a bitmap representation of the loaded PNG image.
You can find more information about this approach in other reports posted here. For example, read report CB47400 ("Application Button - Incorrect alpha blending for 32 bit images").
Thanks,
Serge
