Imagesfiles in Squeak

Hello

If i want to use some images to embed them into my application.

(Form fromFileNamed: 'test.jpg') asMorph openInWorld

This works, but how can I specify that he searches in a subdirectory. I don’t want to use an absolute path but a relative path.

Thanx in advantage

Yes i've tried that but he tells me the following

subdir#test.jpg does not exist.

I've checked the case sensitivity from the folder but it is exactly the
same. Do i have to escape the / sign? Because he looks in "subdir#test.jpg"
I am working on a Windows Xp PC

Thanks for the advage

Rob,

Did you try:

(Form fromFileNamed: 'subdir/test.jpg') asMorph openInWorld

??? It works fine for me and the directory name is interpreted relative
to the image directory.

Try using \ (win32 separator) instead of / (unix separator) or even better:

(Form fromFileNamed: 'subdir', FileDirectory slash, 'swiki.gif') asMorph
openInWorld

Hey

Thanks you. The FileDirectory slash did it! Thanks a lot. But I was
searching also to shrink my image. To set my height and width by extent but
it doesn't work...
