Lines: 25 From: Henry.Kautz I am starting to program my mac, and would like some advice about how to generate and include graphic objects as resources. Icons and fonts are straightforward, but how do you create a PICT resource? What about a bitmap? (Is there even a resource type for bitmap)? MacDraw seems to have a "pict" format option under the save-as command, but the resulting file does not seem to have any resources. Do you have to convert the macdraw file in some way to get the resource? If so, how is the picture-frame for the original picture specified? How can I include graphics generated with MacPaint as resources? It seems that it should be straightforward to write a program that converts parts of Macpaint files into bitmaps, and then saves them as resources, but surely someone has done this before! Any information appreciated. ---- Henry Kautz :uucp: {seismo|allegra}!rochester!henry :arpa: henry@rochester :mail: Dept. of Comp.
