GS bitmap problem

[Bartolini, Antony (ABARTOLI)]

Greetings,

We are having difficulty creating a bitmap image in a canvas using GS.
We are using erl5.4.12 for both Linux and Windows. We are able to load
a gif image into a canvas

W=gs:create(window,gs:start(),[{width,400},{height,400}]),
C=gs:create(canvas,W,[{width,380},{height,380}]),
P=gs:create(image,C,[{load_gif,"junk.gif"}]),
gs:config(W,{map,true}).

brings up a window with a canvas containing junk.gif. No problem. But,
when we do the same except with the {bitmap,"junk.bmp"} option instead
of the {load_gif,"junk.gif"} as below

W=gs:create(window,gs:start(),[{width,400},{height,400}]),
C=gs:create(canvas,W,[{width,380},{height,380}]),
P=gs:create(image,C,[{bitmap,"junk.bmp"}]),
gs:config(W,{map,true}).

We've tried enlarging the window/canvas sizes to ensure that the bitmaps
fit but that doesn't seem to make a difference.

I spent some time looking through the archives for this list but the
search
seems to be broken, so community help seemed like a better way to go.
Internet searches for -- erlang gs image -- or -- erlang gs bitmap --
didn't
seem to turn up much either. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
