The Picture Object

  • Article

Picture objects provide a language-neutral abstraction for bitmaps, icons, and metafiles. As with the standard font object, the system provides a standard implementation of the picture object. Its primary interfaces are IPicture and IPictureDisp, the latter being derived from IDispatch to provide access to the picture's properties through Automation.

Note

When saving pictures for the Picture Object, Automation can only save in the bitmap format. For example, if a developer loads a JPEG or GIF, then saves it back to the same filename, they will now have a bitmap format picture with the original extension (.jpg or .gif).

 

For more information on picture object properties see IPicture and IPictureDisp.
