Why do bitmap files have to stay in the same place as during development?
Bitmap files can be located anywhere they can be opened. Perhaps you are referring to the fact that images selected for grids with the GuiDesigner AppearanceWindow generate full path file names when design windows are converted into grid functions by Window ToFunction . If you do not change these names, the locations of the bitmap image files are in fact fixed, just as you say. To change to a relative path name, edit the grid function as in this example: XuiSendMessage (g, #SetImage, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, @”\\xb\\xxx\\xstart.bmp”) XuiSendMessage (g, #SetImage, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, @”xxx\\xstart.bmp”) The second example skips the leading ” \\xb\\ ” part of the filename, which loads xstart.bmp from the xxx subdirectory of any current directory.
