I'm sure this is an easy problem to solve, but I am still in the
process of familiarizing myself with IDL...I made a logo which is in
bitmap form. I would like to display it on my widget base. How
exactly do I do this?
Cheers,

Hi,
You should make a draw widget whose parent is your base widget. After
the base widget is realized, set the current window display to the
window contained by the image and then display the image. Something
like the following.
MyBase = Widget_Base(title = .....)
MyDraw = Widget_Draw(MyBase, xs = ....)
Widget_Control, MyBase, /Realize
Widget_Control, myDraw, Get_Value = myDrawWinNumber ;<--- important
Wset, myDrawWinNumber
TV, myImage
But really, you should get Liam Gumley's book (www.gumley.com) or
David Fanning's (www.dfanning.com). Each is just the kind of guide
you will need. Money well spent.
