Add a GIF as a Bitmap

Post by jyoung »

How can I add a gif into the Repository so that I can set an image to it?

I would like to add a "spinner" or other animated gif to show a loading request from a server module.

When I try to load it from a file I get a
Error Message: processing Bitmap - Invalid request.
Reported by source file: ..\src\LpCgBitm.cpp
Line number: 6815
I know LANSA has a built in loading spinner that it uses, is there any way to get access to it?

#SYS_WEB.LoadingImage

gives you access to the spinner.
