Using Graphics in Plug-Ins

 

This chapter deals with the use of graphics for user interfaces belonging to plug-ins, specifically in editors, views, wizards, dialog boxes, or in message windows.

The aim of the following section is to answer the following questions:

·         If I want to use graphics, what sources are available to me?

·         When I work with graphics, what support functions does the SAP UI Toolkit offer me?

·         If I want to use graphics in my UI, how exactly do I proceed?

·         In what circumstances should graphic resources be explicitly released?

·         Is there a standard set of SAP icons for use when developing tools?
