Name

SMALLICON (tAIB)

Synopsis

                     
SMALLICON [ID <IconResourceId.n>] <IconFileName.s>
SMALLICONFAMILY [ID <IconResourceId.n>] 
                <BitmapFileName.s> ... <BitmapFileName.s> 
                [<font color="#0000ff">NOCOLORTABLE]
		[COLORTABLE] 
                [TRANSPARENT r g b] [TRANSPARENTINDEX index]

Notes

  • The bitmap must be 15 x 9 in dimension.

  • Compression is not available for SMALLICONS.

  • A tAIB resource with ID 1001 is created unless an alternate ID is specified.

  • SMALLICON creates a monochrome icon resource.

  • SMALLICONFAMILY creates multibit (1bpp, 2bpp, 4bpp, and 256 color) icon resources.

  • The inclusion of the bitmap color table is not recommended as it slows down system performance. PilRC implements a simple color table matching algorithm to match the bitmaps color table to the system palette.

  • When an alternate ID is used for the SMALLICON resource, bitmap size is not checked.

Example

SMALLICON "mysmicon.bmp"
SMALLICONFAMILY "smic1bpp.bmp" "smic2bpp.bmp"
SMALLICONFAMILY "smic1bpp.bmp" "smic2bpp.bmp" "smic4bpp.bmp" "smic8bpp.bmp"
SMALLICONFAMILY "smic1bpp.bmp" "" "" "smic8bpp.bmp" TRANSPARENTINDEX 255
