Can the Icon be disposed safely after a call to Imaging.CreateBitmapSourceFromHIcon?

Hi all,
for a Grid that shows file paths and the associated file icon for a set of given files we extract the Icon of those files and create ImageSource instances for later use.
Roughly:
FileIcons aIcon = new FileIcons(filePath);
System.Drawing.Icon i = aIcon.GetSmallIconWithTypeName(isFolder, out typeName);
ImageSource imgSource = Imaging.CreateBitmapSourceFromHIcon(i.Handle, Int32Rect.Empty, BitmapSizeOptions.FromEmptyOptions());
Irrelevant but just for info: The FileIcons class uses SHGetFileInfo and ExtractIconEx of the Shell32.dll to get the Icon.
The interesting part is: After the call to
Imaging.CreateBitmapSourceFromHIcon(...)
Can I safely dispose the Icon the ImageSource was created from AND keep using the ImageSource afterwards?
Thanks for the help,
Frank

Hi Experts, can the secondary windows be processed after the main window?

Hi Experts,
at the end of the main window there is a command node and can the secondary windows be processed after the main window? thanks for your reply.
Kind regards
Dawson

Hello Dawson
No it can't Process the secondary window if you are calling a new Page in that command line.
Even if it gets called I don't think it will give the desired output.
Give it a try, But I am sure its not going to give you the desired output instead attach the command line to the end of your secondary window and in condition tab of secondary window check the check box "Only after Main window".
Hope this discussion was helpful.
Cheers,
Suvendu

Can the icons be removed?

How can the icons be removed from Safari search page they are a mix of what I have searched for and my favorites I never asked for an icon and I do not want the icon to be on my safari search page! How do I remove them?

What is the application?
Place your cursonr on it and wait. A little pane will come up to tell you what the application is

The icons in the bookmark tool bar are blank and the text that use to be below the icon is gone. I now have to cursor over the blank icons to see the text and the one I want. Can the icon/text customization be returned?

In the Navigation Toolbar, the icons "Back", "Forward" etc. show the small icon and the descriptive text below the Icon. My Bookmark Toolbar use to have the same icon/text format but at some point, possibly a browser update, that changed. Currently, I do have a visible Bookmark Toolbar BUT the icons do not show the website icon, as previously, and the text below each icon is gone. I an cursor over each icon and the text becomes visible next to the icon. This is a bit of a pain to find a bookmark. Can I do a customization to return to the icon/text format.
Was this changed because browser users requested this option, or was it an internal decision.? If the later why make such changes when not requested?
Ed Sander

That wasn't a change in Firefox. It sounds like something is broken in your Firefox installation, or you are misunderstanding the different between the Bookmarks Toolbar and the other Toolbars.
In the Bookmarks Toolbar the text appears next to the website icon, not below the icon as with the other two Toolbars, and it's not switchable between text and no text as with the other Toolbars. With both the bookmark icon and the Bookmark name missing, something is broken in your installation. You need to do a little troubleshooting.
Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? 
[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode] 
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
If not, see this: 
[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes]
If your problem isn't related to an extension, your bookmarks data base file (places.sqlite) is probably corrupt. 
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite 
Be aware that if you delete the "places.sqlite" and similar files, your bookmark website icons won't automatically appear (the JSON backups don't have that icon data) when you restart Firefox and the places.sqlite is rebuilt using the backup data file, but the icons should be saved the first time each bookmark is used for the first time.

ALL the Icons disappear for seconds after using five-finger-gesture and swipe to another page in the home screen

Hello,
iPad Air, 8.1.2
This issue has been making me annoyed for a long time...
You can find the bug by following steps:
1). Go to Settings APP.
2). Use five-finger-gesture to close this APP, and quickly swipe to another page of home screen before the icons in the current page haven't dropped down.( I mean...The animation that likes icons dropping down)
3). You can see ALL the icons will disappear for seconds.
I've restored the firmware again and again, but it doesn't helped at all...
And if I turn on the "reduce motion" option, the icons won't disappear.
And...Some little bugs:
1) In APP switcher, when swiping up to close APPs, the icon's animation is lost. (I mean...The icons shouldn't disappear without any animations. In iOS7, the icons should have a "closing animation"
2)In lock screen, press the power button with a very high speed, and you will see the "time" in the lock screen is being appeared and disappeared, appeared and disappeared, appeared and disappeared...
I hope you can understand me, I'm sorry for my bad English, I'm a middle school student in China, and I have to report these bugs.

I am not seeing that problem, however, this is a user forum. You aren't talking to Apple here.
if you want to report a problem to Apple use this: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

Where can the log file be found after printing to the PDF printer?

Cannot locate the log file after printing to the Adobe PDF printer. The box was unchecked for delete log file after successful print. Running Adobe Acrobat X Standard (v10.0.0) on a windows 2008 R2 server.

There is usually no log file when the conversion succeeds. Only in certain cases are their warning or information messages, usually of little interest.

Using a downloaded image as the icon style for a Button

Hello
I have a problem and after a lot of investigation I have reached to no conclusion.
When setting the icon to a Button, a Class of an image is needed. This can be done very simply by embeding an image. But what I would like to do is use an image known only at runtime.
More exactly I can not download an image from an external source, obtain it bitmapData or something else, convert it and assign it as the icon style for a Button.
So my problem is that for the Flex components that need an image, a Class needs to be assigned, and I can not use an external image to download it, to convert it in some way and assign it.
Does anybody have any sugestion? Is it possible?
My purpose is to make some utility that just downloads the images and after the downloading has been completed, to notify the "client" it should take the "created Class" to use it as a style.
Thank you in advance for your time,
Claude Bur.

Can the ipad mini make calls to a mobile phone other than a iphone.

Can the ipad mini be used to make calls to any mobile phone.

Mail app is blank. I can not see any thing but a blank page with blue lined format. It does not shut down either. It just blinks out after a few seconds and the icon is there alone on my home screen then everything goes black and my home screen comes

MY Mail app does not respond in anyway to anything. The icon shows I have over 300 emails but I have no access to them. When I tap on the Mail icon a blank white page comes up with the blue format lines. No emails, no inbox, nothing, not a single letter of the alphabet is there. Within a few seconds it blinks out and I see the icon and my home screen. Soon it just blinks out to black. I am left with the icon at the bottom center of the screen. I have no way to shut it down. I have no access to the emails (300) in my inbox. All that is happening is my memory is getting filled up with emails. I would appreciate any solution to this problem barring deleting my email set up in settings.
if I have to resort to that I will, in the meantime I am hoping for a different resolution. Thanks everyone, you are all amazing and greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Diane.

Hey There Diane,
If I'm understanding your situation, you've got an iPad running iOS 6.1.3 and the Mail app is not working. I understand you don't want to remove and re-add your email account.
The first thing I would suggest is to make sure your iPad is backed up to iCloud or iTunes.
Do you have an iMAP or a POP email account? When you go online to your email service provider's website, are you able to access the 300 emails in your inbox?
Since the Mail app is part of your iOS operating system, upgrading that software to the latest version, which is 8.1.3 may resolve this issue.

What do you do when you can't connect to the internet and you get this message XUl Runner after you click on the icon to open Mozilla? Then it says error platform'1.9.2.16 is not campatible wwith minVersion =1.9.2.17 maxVersion 1.9.2.17

I can't get the internet to open and when you click on the icon to open firefox the above message is displayed and I don't know how to fix what is causing the error.

Do a clean (re-)install:

* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

My ipod touch has a permanent image of the end of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to an icon of ITunes. I can't reset, and ipod does not appear on itunes when I plug it into the computer. This happened after I agreed to a failed software update.

My ipod touch has a permanent image of the end of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to an icon of ITunes. I can't reset using the two button method, and ipod does not appear on itunes when I plug it into the computer - and nothing else happens either. This happened after I agreed to a software update which failed. How can I get it going again?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I can't get imovie to open after trying to shift the image to my TV by clicking fn F3. If I hold the mouse on the imovie icon for a few seconds the imovie window opens but if I click anywhere on the window it disappears

I can't get imovie to open after trying to shift the image from my macbook pro to the tv screen like I have done many times before. If I double click on the imovie icon, imovie doesn't open, but the strip across the top shows iMovie, file, edit , clip, view, text share window help tabs across the top. The iMovie window will appear if I click on the iMovie icon on the dock for a few seconds, or if I do control F3 at the same time, but when I click on the window it disappears. When I hover the mouse over the iMovie window that appears the window has a blue border around it. when I move the mouse outside the iMovie window the blue border goes away. If I sweep 4 fingers from the top of the screen down, the screen dims a little but the iMovie window doesn't appear. If I click play under the view tab I can hear audio, but still no iMovie window. It's as if the window is being blocked by the desk top somehow.
