ImageView: Displaying Images

The Dali::Toolkit::ImageView component displays an image.

Figure: ImageView

Creating an ImageView

The image view is constructed by passing a Dali::Image object. The Dali::Image is an abstract base class with multiple derived classes, and the Dali::ResourceImage class is used for loading an image from a file or URL. The following example shows how to create an ImageView object:

ImageView imageView = ImageView::New( myImageURL );
// Or
Image image = ResourceImage::New( myImageURL );
ImageView imageView = ImageView::New( image );

Changing the Image

The image object can be changed later on by calling the ImageView::SetImage() function:

imageView.SetImage( newImage );
