How to view AOT resources files

Finance and Operations/AX Developer Forum

There are several png images in the AOT resources.

It would be great if anyone can help in viewing those files.

Thanks in advance

You can, for example, add a button to a form, set ButtonDisplay = Image only, ImageLocation = AOTResource and set the name of an AOT resource (e.g. Delete_16x16_png) to NormalImage property.

Hey Martin,

Thanks for the reply.

I already know that process

but what I want to know is is there a folder in Microsoft Dynamics AX where I can view all the png based icons in one place rather than testing each one of them by inserting this image e.g. Delete_16x16_png then test it and if you don’t like this image you have re-insert some name again and test that out which is a very cumbersome process.

I hope you understood what I am trying to ask

If you have any questions please let me know.

Thanks

Shankar

I would have gave you another answer if you explained your requirements in the original question. Please provide more information next time, so we both don’t waste time.

AOT resources are stored in AOT, not in any folder. You could, though, write a piece of code to walk through all resources and export them from AOT to disk.
