Trying to access chess piece images. How do I store in .app?
« on: August 24, 2023, 03:53:50 am »
Hi, I have code like this:
  imgPiece1.Picture.LoadFromFile(ExtractFilePath(ParamStr(0)) + 'images/wikisvgchesspieces/white_king.png');
And it is failing because the file does not exist when I click the Play button in Lazarus to run it.

Do I need to compile it, copy the images into the .app folder and then try and run it?

Check if "ExtractFilePath(ParamStr(0))" has a "/" at the end.
