Is there a way to display an image inside graph-on-parent window?
Is there a way to display an arbitrary image of common filetypes (gif, jpeg, png, tif) on a canvas?
I've checked the list archives. I tried [image] but couldn't get it to work.
I can't seem to type a Windows-MSDOS style pathname which contains backslashes... I get "Keycode 92 dropped". (How annoying! is there a good reason for this?)
Anyway, I would really like a way to display an image inside the graph-on-parent window to help people understand the controls.
Bonus points if I can change the image with a message.
Thanks! BH

Have you tried iem_image from the iemgui library?

here's my approach at this, a customized knob:
http://klingt.org/fileservice/downloads/08135152508907130-ol_knob_300418.zip
it needs some extrernals, but they are all mentioned in the helpfile
unfortunately it's limited to gifs (a Tcl/Tk restriction, it seems) and not sizeable ;-(

this issue has been raised many times. to be honest i didn't really understand the reasons either, but i am not a coder and i think we have to live with it.
the good news is: you don't need the backslash inside PD. all read/write messages work with slashes under windows !
(working with batch files called from PD (via motex' [system] external) is a different beast ...)

William,
I have made such an interface for a customer recently using the [image] object:
Is it what you are looking for?

William, I'm currently working on an external (named [else/pic]) that does that, should be on the next update of my library anytime soon

check out [jmmmp/pix2canvas] if you want to convert an image into
individual canvas "pixels", all pd-native (not advised for big formats)
