At 12:22p -0300 07/02/2004, Bernardo Hoehl didst inscribe upon an
electronic papyrus:
I want to display an Icon (e.g. My picture) on a window.
code: display dialog "My text" with icon number_of_icon
I have posted a topic at Macscripters.net and Camelot answered:
=============
The icon number represents the resource ID of an ICON resource in the file.
Since your script doesn't include the necessary resource, your
script doesn't show the icon.
You'll need to use some kind of resource editor to copy the icon
from the sample script into your own script (or duplicate the sample
script file and edit the embedded script)
==============
Question:
Which program do I use to embed the image in the Applescript Applet?
You can use ResFool <
http://www.ljug.com/>, or ResEdit if you wanna
run Classic.
NOTE: You must *first* save your script as a resource file. You
canNOT use Script Editor 2.0 for that; you have to use either Script
Editor 1.9 (from Jaguar) or the commercial program Script Debugger
<
http://www.latenightsw.com/>.
Note also that in place of a B&W 'ICON' resource, you may use a color
'cicn' resource instead. Make sure it's 32x32. Don't leave the
default id of 128; I like to use an id in the 300 range (330 is my
arbitrary preference) to avoid conflicts.
Also: ResFool does not yet have any icon editor; you will need to
already have an icon. Or you can use ResEdit to draw your icon, etc.
HTH,
