iconbar background image

[Guest faziatic]

Well, since I don't get any answer in my other threads, let's try it with another question :lol:

How do I set a background-image for the iconbar?

I already tried this:

<plugin clsid="{837FC251-FE69-43ad-84E0-EBCEDEBA0884}" name="iconbar" height="20">

  <iconbar fgcolor="COLOR_TRAYTEXT"/>

  <background gradient="title" bgimage="\IPSM\Application Data\Home\wm2005a_bar.gif" />

  <format state="selected" bgcolor="transparent"  valign="top"/>

  

	</plugin>

The iconbar is trasparent but the background-image isn't there...

Has anyone an idea how to change the background-image??

I dont think you can use gif's you can use bmp's(or gif's labled as gifs in some cases)

A couple of things to try... 1. Get rid of the gradient parameter. 2. The bgcolor parameter is set to transparent only when the state is selected (by the way, I don't believe the icon bar can ever have a state of "selected"). You want to set bgcolor as part of the background tag as in

<background bgcolor="transparent" bgimage="..." />
