I need to insert and image into a ShapeTemplate.
This is the code i wrote for a simple test:
[code]
Bitmap bitmap = new Bitmap("ResourceFiles\\SynopticsIcons\\test.png");
bitmap.SetResolution(96, 96);
ShapeTemplate st = new ShapeTemplate(new ElementTemplate[] {}, FillMode.Winding, "test");
st.Image = bitmap;
st.ImageRectangle = new RectangleF(0, 0, 100, 100);
Box box = flowChart_Synoptic.CreateBox(10, 10, bitmap.Width, bitmap.Height);
box.Shape = st;
box.Style = BoxStyle.Shape;   
[/code]

I don't know why but there is no image displayed.
Where could i find a running example?

Thanks

Perfect!
Thanks...
I have another litte question....
When i create a new Box i use:
[code]
Box box = flowChart_Synoptic.CreateBox(10, 100, bitmap.Width, bitmap.Height);
[/code]

but the size is not correct (bigger than normal)
I would like to know where is the measure unit of the width and height  in CreateBox.
In the documentation i have:

width

The width of the box to draw.

height

The height of the box to draw.

There is no indication about pixel o mm o cm?

I think that the code:
[code]
st.ImageRectangle = new RectangleF(0, 0, 100, 100);
[/code]
It is the left-top pixel where to start the image (respect to the shape) and the % of the width and height  (respect to the size of the shape).
am i correct?

So the Box.FitSizeToImage doesn't work (i think it is valid only when you use box.Image and not Shape.Image and Shape.ImageRectangle)

So i prefer to rescale by my self the shape with:
[code]
Box box = flowChart_Synoptic.CreateBox(10, 100, (float)(bitmap.Width * 25.4 / bitmap.HorizontalResolution), (float)(bitmap.Height * 25.4 / bitmap.VerticalResolution));
[/code]

Thanks again for your great support.
Meriturva

You are right,
the FitSizeToImage call must be after the
[code]
box.Shape = st;
box.Style = BoxStyle.Shape;

box.FitSizeToImage();
[/code]

Thanks.
