So I have a pop-up dialog in my application that tells the user about the program. Everything was going fine until the custom icon. Here's what I've attempted:
Attempt 1:
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(dialog, "Blah blah blah", "About", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE, new ImageIcon("home/user/Pictures/default.jpg"));
Attempt 2:
final icon = new ImageIcon("home/user/Pictures/default.jpg"));
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(dialog, "Blah blah blah", "About", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE, icon);
Attempt 3:
final icon = new ImageIcon("home/user/Pictures/default.jpg"));
showMessageDialog(dialog, "Blah blah blah", "About", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE, icon);
Attempt 4:
(Screaming at java)
Attempt 5:
Using URL's
All have had no affect on the program and instead of an image, I don't get anything.
Details:
- No exceptions
- The file path DOES exist
- My IDE doesn't return exceptions, NOR any warnings of any sort
- Yes, I've put also tried the path /home/user/Pictures/default.jpg
- .ico's, .png's, .jpg's don't work. I'm not so sure about .gif's right now though.
Help me! :(
