- How to create PICT resources
-
- Before we start get ResEdit from Apples FTP Server, from a CD,… If you've go it - follow me.
- 1) Open the picture you want to convert to a PICT resource with your favourite graphics programm.
- 2) Copy the picture to the clipboard.
- 3) Open ResEdit. You'll see a clown who jumbs out of a box. Hit any key. An Open dialog should be displayed. If it
- is not displayed then choose Open… from the File menu. Locate the stack where you want to copy your picture
- to and hit the Open button.
- 4) Maybe you will be prompted with a dialog saying that your stack has no resource fork. Click on OK.
- 5) Now you should see a (1) empty window (2) a window with icons and text below the icons or (3) just text.
- 6) Search for the text PICT. If you find it go on with step 8 else with step 7.
- 7) Choose Create New Resource from the Resource menu. Enter PICT in the small box and click OK. Enter it in
- UPPERCASE letters. Go on with step 9.
- 8) Close all open windows of ResEdit if there are any but not the window which opened first (the window with all
- the resources in it).
- 9) Double click the PICT resource.
- 10) Select Paste from the Edit menu.
- 11) Select Get Info from the Resource menu. Enter a name for your picture but leave everything else unchanged!
- 12) Coose Save from the File menu.
- 13) Yeah, we're ready. You've just created a PICT resource.
