Picture Property
Specifies the bitmap to display on an object.
Syntax
object.Picture = LoadPicture( pathname )
The Picture property syntax has these parts:
| Part | Description |
|---|---|
| object | Required. A valid object. |
| pathname | Required. The full path to a picture file. |
Remarks
While designing a form, you can use the control's property page to assign a bitmap to the Picture property. While running a form, you must use the LoadPicture function to assign a bitmap to Picture.
To remove a picture that is assigned to a control, click the value of the Picture property in the property page and then press DELETE. Pressing BACKSPACE will not remove the picture.

| For controls with captions, use the PicturePosition property to specify where to display the picture on the object. Use the PictureSizeMode property to determine how the picture fills the object. |
Transparent pictures sometimes have a hazy appearance. If you do not like this appearance, display the picture on a control that supports opaque images. Image and MultiPage support opaque images.
