Where to Put Resources (Images)?

[detlev_beutner]

Hi there,

I want to display buttons with images on them. The way how this works is quite clear, nevertheless, I do not see any place where to put the images inside the WD-project and how to refer them!?

Any hint?

Thanks in advance

Hi Detlev,

import the images into the src/Mimes/Components/<currentComponent> directory. There's an "Import from filesystem" feature in Eclipse to do that.

An alternative is to copy the images manually and to use the Navigator view to refresh the project contents (via the context menu).

You can then use the filename(s) you see in the WD view for the corresponding imagesource-properties.

Hope that helps.

Regards

Stefan

Hi Stefan,

yeah, great, thanks. At a first glance, this was just the place where I expected the image to put in, but tha fact that there was no context menu entry on this mimes directory stopped me from going on this path...

Wouldn't it be a good idea to add such an entry within the context menu, at least for the src/* folders? (And then, start the normal import wizard, with the destination directory preset.)

Best regards

..maybe one of the SAP internals around here will add it to the request list for the next release.

Hi All,

Good news: We implemented it, so with the next release you will have the following option:

Within a file under src/mimes (Web Dynpro Explorer) you have the option by using the context menue to call the Eclipse "import-from-file-system" Wizard. The selected node (where you started the context menue) will be proposed as target directory.

Thanks and best regards,
