Loading a .png into my game?

Is there anyway to load a picture into my game from a file. Like I have a button you press, and it gets a picture file from apppath+"/pictures/Global('filetoload')"

You can do that using "Load animation frame from file" action. The action loads a new picture into the current frame of the animation.

By the way, if you're going to use an equation like that, I think this is more what you want:

apppath & "pictures/" & Global('filetoload')[/code:2uxw6koy]

Thanks

For consistency it's probably a good idea to always use backslashes for local paths. AppPath returns a path with backslashes, so if you append forward slashes you end up with a path like this:

C:\Games\MyGame\pictures/file.png

Luckily Windows can work out what this means but I'd stick with backslashes all the way through to be on the safe side...
