\section{\class{wxStaticBitmap}}\label{wxstaticbitmap}

A static bitmap control displays a bitmap. It is meant for display of the
small icons in the dialog boxes and is not meant to be a general purpose image
display control. In particular, under Windows 9x the size of bitmap is limited
to $64*64$ pixels and thus you should use your own control if you want to
display larger images portably.

\wxheading{Remarks}

The bitmap to be displayed should have a small number of colours, such as 16, to avoid
palette problems.

\param{long}{ style = 0}, \param{const wxString\& }{name = ``staticBitmap"}}

Constructor, creating and showing a text control.

\wxheading{Parameters}

\docparam{parent}{Parent window. Should not be NULL.}

\docparam{id}{Control identifier. A value of -1 denotes a default value.}

\docparam{label}{Bitmap label.}

\docparam{pos}{Window position.}

\docparam{size}{Window size.}

\docparam{style}{Window style. See \helpref{wxStaticBitmap}{wxstaticbitmap}.}

\docparam{name}{Window name.}

\membersection{wxStaticBitmap::Create}\label{wxstaticbitmapcreate}

\func{bool}{Create}{\param{wxWindow* }{parent}, \param{wxWindowID}{ id},\rtfsp
\param{const wxBitmap\& }{label}, \param{const wxPoint\& }{pos = wxDefaultPosition}, \param{const wxSize\& }{size = wxDefaultSize},\rtfsp
\param{long}{ style = 0}, \param{const wxString\& }{name = ``staticBitmap"}}

Creation function, for two-step construction. For details see \helpref{wxStaticBitmap::wxStaticBitmap}{wxstaticbitmapconstr}.


\membersection{wxStaticBitmap::GetBitmap}\label{wxstaticbitmapgetbitmap}

\constfunc{wxBitmap}{GetBitmap}{\void}

Returns the bitmap currently used in the control. Notice that this method can
be called even if \helpref{SetIcon}{wxstaticbitmapseticon} had been used.

\helpref{wxStaticBitmap::SetBitmap}{wxstaticbitmapsetbitmap}


\membersection{wxStaticBitmap::GetIcon}\label{wxstaticbitmapgeticon}

\constfunc{wxIcon}{GetIcon}{\void}

Returns the icon currently used in the control. Notice that this method can
only be called if \helpref{SetIcon}{wxstaticbitmapseticon} had been used: an icon
can't be retrieved from the control if a bitmap had been set (using 
\helpref{SetBitmap}{wxstaticbitmapsetbitmap}).
