Hi Dennis,
I use VS.net resource editor to open the user32.dll and set the icon's
image type to
48X48 and export it as an .ico file.
But after I import this ico file into button's image property, I found that
the ico was displayed
in 16X16 type and just as you said its properties was black and readonly.
I used ACDSee to open the ico file and found that its still had 9 image
types associated with it.
I do not know how you deleted the other 8 image types.
As a workaround, I found that if you use ExtractAssociatedIconEx to load
the icon and convert it
into Icon class then you can adjust its size as you like.
Sample code like this:
FileStream fs=new FileStream(@"C:\ico101.ico",FileMode.Open );
fs.Position=0;
Icon newicon=new Icon(fs,48,48);
Button1.Image=(Image)newicon.ToBitmap();
I think the reason that at design time the image property only display
16X16 icon is that
the VS.net IDE default use Icon class's default constructor(16X16 size) to
load the icon.
Hope this helps
Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan
