Hi,

x < Wx::Frame
def initialize()
super
icon_file = File.join(, “help.ico”)
icon = Wx::Icon.new(icon_file, Wx::BITMAP_TYPE_ICO)
set_icon(icon)

Hi,

Follow the documentation
http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/doc/image.html
http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/wxrubydoc.html

Image#replace http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/doc/image.html#Image_replace
Image#resize http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/doc/image.html#Image_resize
Image#size http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/doc/image.html#Image_size
etc.

If I have an advice for you is to design your needed with WxFormBuilder.
That’s create for you an XRC.
Install gem wx_sugar
and create your based class etc.

you will win a lot of time, and it will be easiest because all your
designed
objects are created and you have just to change event & properties

All it explain in wiki

Thanks for the response. Can you now tell me how to display an image on
a frame and/or window, and set the size and position of the image?
Thanks in advance for all assistance.

As well as Dix’s advice about using Wx::Image to size images, see also
the documentation for DC (Device Context, which handles all drawing on
screen), and Bitmap. There’s a number of relevant samples in
samples/drawing which show how to display an image on a Window.

Yes it is possible, the method is the same. What have you tried?
