eXontrol Software - Edit ActiveX, NET Control

The control provides an image list window, that's displayed at design time. Use the ShowImageList property to hide the image list window, at design time. At design time, the user can add new icons to the control's Images collection, by dragging icon files, exe files, etc, to the images list window. At runtime, the user can use the Images and ReplaceIcon method to change the Images collection. The Images collection is 1 based. The control's context list may contain icons. Use the BookmarkImageLine property to assign an icon to the control's bookmarks header. Use the BookmarkImage property to display the control's bookmarks header.

The following VB sample loads two icons using BASE64 encoded strings:

With Edit1 .BookmarkWidth = 18 .Images ("gBJJgBggAAwAAgACEKAD/hz/EMNh8TIRNGwAjEZAEXjAojJAjIgjIBAEijUlk8plUrlktl0vmExmUzmk1m03nE5nU7nk9n0/oFBoVDolFo1HpFJpVLplNp1PqFRqVTqlVq1XrFZrVbrldr1fsFhsVjslls1ntFptVrtltt1vuFxuVzul1u13vF5vV7vl9v1/wGBwWDh+Dw1bwuJh0Sf8txeHyFXx+Ryk9wsnxbAzUpycYxWNiWMyujleXjOm0+gjKA1gA1iA0Wf0mz2WY1WwjWywuvz2N1GzyO11ON3mXxe6xfFzvAwXI1UY3mh5292PJ1vMw3T7Hbo3T73L7nhl3f5/i8034Xn9Xr9nt91Cio+lXyjsfkMjAEkk/69Hg97UpSeZ3pSeBnpScAHwO/iMmBBaMQalJAQc10JvylUJkAD8Dh+lJ8Q4k5/D+zjygAgI") .Images ("gBJJgBggAAkGAAQhIAf8Nf4hhkOiRCJo2AEXjAAi0XFEYIEYhUXAIAEEZi8hk0plUrlktl0vmExmUzmk1m03nE5nU7lqAnwAYFBnlDolFo1HpFJmkOAE+QFAoVBYFQqdKq1XrFZrU2plMp1UsFfr9Srdls1ntEzrsNiL/ps/sU/sleuVRoVpvF5vVDtduulPudswNuslju1VveJxWLk19ttvwFCpmDsGToVxp+MzWbs2Ov+Vtk/t8XymUx2c1GppOOw1Ty1T0WismmtlM1W33FEz+zw9hzOxzOetm54nFoe8qfIsGF3/B2vDjGi43T6k45XXy/Nnva6vd7007HJ7MX4Hk7nS7/p9Utskz8vr+Hxono+X1+33/HGig+lX8jiPJAjCRpGjLMpwph/D+lJ+A+lJ8AOlJ4QIjJwJUxECpnCaMgGlUOJMYAEwilR+BylJ/j3Ey3JMgIA=") .InsertText ("First line") .InsertText ("Second line") .BookmarkImageLine(1) = 1 .BookmarkImageLine(2) = 2 End With
