IImageList interface (commoncontrols.h)
Exposes methods that manipulate and interact with image lists.
To use IImageList, specify Comctl32.dll version 6 in the manifest. If you do not do this, Comctl32.dll version 5 will be used by default, with which IImageList could display unpredictable behavior. For more information on manifests, see Enabling Visual Styles.
Inheritance
The IImageList interface inherits from the IUnknown interface. IImageList also has these types of members:
Methods
The IImageList interface has these methods.
| IImageList::Add Adds an image or images to an image list. (IImageList.Add) |
| IImageList::AddMasked Adds an image or images to an image list, generating a mask from the specified bitmap. (IImageList.AddMasked) |

| IImageList::DragEnter Locks updates to the specified window during a drag operation and displays the drag image at the specified position within the window. (IImageList.DragEnter) |
| IImageList::DragLeave Unlocks the specified window and hides the drag image, which enables the window to update. |
