Description

StaticPicture

Name

Specific Category

 

FileName

Specifies the directory and file name of the picture to be shown in the form (*.gif, *.bmp, and so on).

StretchImage

Specifies how the image is displayed. If True, the picture is stretched to the size of the control.

If False, the picture is shown in its original size.

Note:

Although the picture files can be stored in any folder, it is recommended that you store them in the <AutoCAD Map 3D>\Pics folder or a subfolder. Then, they are available with the dynamic path <AutoCAD Map 3D>\Pics and you need to enter the subfolder/filename only. If you use picture files with a static path, they are not available on a different computer unless the path is exactly the same. Alternatively, you can use //Servername to store the picture files on a server.

To show the pictures both in AutoCAD Map 3D and Infrastructure Application Extension , make sure that the pictures are stored both in the <AutoCAD Map 3D>\Pics folder and the <Infrastructure Application Extension>Pics folder or subfolder.

Note:

To show the pictures in Infrastructure Application Extension, if you do not use the <AutoCAD Map 3D>\Pics folder, you must map the folder names in the system table TB_GN_DIRECTORY_ALIAS.
