I am trying to place a high resolution bitmap on a Picture control. I resize the image to fit on the picture control.
However I lose some resolution (its quite bad).

I did try and load the image as a jpg and gif and wmf but keep getting the error:

c:\Task_Emu\Task_Emu.rc(339): error RC2170 : bitmap file res\PrimaryFlight.gif is not in 3.00 format

I have looked at the properties of the Picture control and Bitmap (set to True colour).

Are they antthing I can do to get the bitmap (or jpg) displayed a bit better. I expect some lose of resolution, but just want it a bit better if possible

Regards,

 
I don't know if it'll help, but see: How can I display a JPG or GIF in my MFC app? - faq116-1096 - for information on JPG and/or GIF files in controls.
