Hello everyone.
I have found many topics on accessing embedded resources and adding Bitmaps to a project so those I can replicate. What's throwing me is probably pretty simple, but:
How do I get a tif file into my project as an embedded resource.
I've tried to right click the project and 'add' -> 'new item'. Of the options I see in the dialog, Bitmap File is the closest, but that brings up an interface to draw a bitmap. I did not see any info in the drawing interface to import a file either.
I would like to embed it so that it doesn't have to be an extra file hanging around in the executable folder. I'd like to keep it as a tiff as well instead of using the BitmapDecoders. (I'm using a component that is expecting a tif's stream).
Suggestions?
Thanks, All.
