L_ILM_IMPORTBITMAPLIST

Send this message to insert a list of bitmaps into the ImageList Control.

Returns

Comments

You must set the uStructSize member of the LILIMPORTBITMAPLIST structure before using this message.

The list of bitmaps found in the passed LILIMPORTBITMAPLIST structure (pointed to by lParam) will be inserted into the Image List control starting from nStartIndex to (nStartIndex + nItemsToInsert –1).

After inserting the list of bitmaps successfully into the ImageList control, don’t try to free the bitmaps of the passed list (hList’s bitmaps). The ImageList control will have a reference to hList bitmaps not a copy of them.

The associated macro is:

L_ImgListImportBitmapList(hWnd, pImportList)

For a complete list of available macros, refer to the Ltlst.h file.
