Toolbar images invisible in WM2003SE

I have some toolbars with images from an image list. They display fine in
everything before WM2003SE, but on the WM2003SE emulator, and apparently on
real WM2003SE devices too, the images are totally transparent. You can tap
the toolbar buttons - they are there but there is no image on them. Any
idea why my images aren't showing up under WM2003SE? Thanks.

Hi,

I am experiencing the same problem. Have you found a solution? I'll keep you posted on anything new I learn.

Thanks,
Carlos
 
I haven't seen it (because HP is not releasing an SE update for my
model), but I now have a customer complaining of the same thing.

I would appreciate knowing what is going on so I can fix it.

Carlos,

That fix works fine until you remove (i.e. hide) the toolbar for any reason,
then you have to do it all over again.

I suppose it is too much to hope for that code working on 2002 and 2003
would also work on 2003 SE. Anybody at Microsoft have a Dell Axim X30? If
so, could you could test against hardware that is currently shipping ;-)

Hi Bruce,

You can replicate that behavior by downloading the WM2003SE images off the
Click to expand...
VS website. As far as fixing it, you basically have to add the transparent
icons to your project, set them as "embedded resources", then load the icons
into the imagelist at run-time and re-specify each buttons' imageindex. That
worked for me. :)
 
Carlos, could you post a little bit of code. This issue is driving me
crazy.

Well, I think that I found a solution, at least it worked for me. This
will sound stupid but after reading ms support I found a tip talking about
another similar situation and following that tip I went and moved the code
under

'ImageList1
'
'
'ToolBar1
'
'ToolBarButton1

in the Sub InitializeComponent()

I moved to the end of that same sub. And surprise! That worked!
