Load the Assets-IDE package. Define a subclass of Assets. Select an Assets subclass. Select the 'Sync Assets' menu item in the Class menu of the RB. This syncs the class with the assets from a directory. You might want to use a subclass of Smalltalk.AlphaBlendedIcons if you are importing pngs with alpha.

Hi Steward,

just load the package Asset-IDE and right-click your subclass of AlphaBlendedIcons (a subclass of Asset specialized on PNGs). You’ll find a Sync Asset menu item there.

Kind Regards

Karsten

Hi,

 

I've got some .png files that I'd like to use and have come across the Assets class.

 

I get that there is a pragma pointing to a file and that the files get coverted into a method which can be used without the file to get the .png image.

 

I'd like to "load" some .pngs but the class documentation doesn't explain how.

 

Pointers appreciated...

 

Thanks,

 

Stewart
